Maybe pregnancy?

For the last 2 months instead of a period I have only had spotting for 2-3 days.. I am supposed to start my period for this month in 5 days. This last week now I have been really nauseous and have thrown up. Also my body has just wanted me to sleep all day almost everyday. Should I take a pregnancy test or wait and see if I get a period this month? I should also note that for probably a month now I have had a really bad runny nose/ sinus drainage (not usual for me).

When in doubt, just take a test. Could it be stress on your body from being sick - sure, but you won't know for sure until you take a test.
The symptoms you describe are non-specific and not reliable to diagnose pregnancy. You should do a pregnancy test at home and/or through your OB if you are 30+ days past your last me atrial period start day 1!

A pregnancy test makes sense. Some women find they spot for the first few months of pregnancy.
