The day after you were supposed to get your period, you can take a pregnancy test. There are different tests available at the drugstore and pharmacy.

If the test is positive: CONGRATULATIONS!

A lot is happening in your body, even though you usually don’t feel it yet. Most pregnancy discomforts start later. Are you already experiencing any? Don’t worry, this is completely normal. Some bodies are more sensitive to hormones than others. If you’d like, you can make an appointment with us to go over everything calmly. The first appointment is usually around 8 weeks of pregnancy.

Is the test negative? This does not necessarily mean that you are not pregnant. If your period is delayed, you can take another test a few days later. Sometimes an egg stays in the fallopian tube for a bit longer, and the test may only show a positive result a week later.
