Delayed Period: Possible Causes & Symptoms Explained

Question
I am supposed to start my period today, and so far, nothing.  For the last week and a half to two weeks I have had an increase in my appatite.  Also, normally about a week before I start, I get really emotional, and my breasts become very sore.  In the last week I have had none of this.  It has been quite the oppisite. I know that a sign of pregnancy is your breasts get sore.  So my question is, is it possible that what I have been feeling could be symptoms of pregnancy.  By the way I have not been pregnant before.  Thanks so much in advance!

Answer
Hello Kara- yes, it is possible that you are pregnant, it is also possible that you missed ovulating last month and your cycle will be mixed up- this happens often. Only time will tell- since there is a chance of pregnancy, be sure you are drinking NO alcohol, NO smoking or breathing around smoke and taking a DAILY folic acid supplement. Cheri.
