Hi,
In confirmed case of pregnancy, nausea and other symptoms as you said usually seen.
If you have undergone UPT and if it came negative, then you should go for ultrasound of abdomen which will confirm your pregnancy provided that you have missed period for more than 2 weeks.
UPT should be done with first few drops of the first voided urine sample after getting up early in the morning.
UPT has about 90 to 95% accuracy rate but ultrasound has 100%.
