Symptoms vary from woman to woman...but mine were severe cravings for pickles and in particular pickled fish!
I also went off drinking cups of tea...my boobs were sore. I didnt get much nausea to start off with,just a little in the mornings. However, after 8 weeks, all i could eat were dry crackers to stop feeling ill! Ooooh, the joys! 
Im a bit useless on when to do a test, think you can find out 4 days after your period was due?
If you could give more info, i might be able to help more?

My symptoms
My breasts were very sore and swollen (they looked awesome, actually, lol) and I was really tired. I started getting morning sickness at about 4 weeks and yes, definitely a few cravings. One thing also was that my sense of smell got really sensitive. To this day I still can't stand the smell of deep fried calamari. There are tests that will tell you even before your period is due, I think.Comment
