hey guys, im brand new here lol. I just had a quick question. I'm probably just being paranoid and making my period late but, ok, last month I got my period on the 15th (its usually on the 10th, but i think february being a short month made it a little later) and this online thing said my period should have came on the 12th. ANYWAY, so we did it one of the first few days of this month (i think around the time of ovulation, if i am correct) and my period should have been here last tuesday and still nothing (mind you, i havent been over 5 days late in a very long time). i keep thinking im gonna get it and dont. i just have a scared feeling now. So do you think i'm just being paranoid or should I test? and if so, when should I do it? Honestly, i'm scared to test lol, I can't bring myself to get one yet. I'm really hoping my period will get here like, now, so I wont have to take a test. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

An online period tracker said you should have gotten your period on the 12th?
You cant trust the online things like that lol they dont know how your body works.
You said your 5 days late, take a test anytime now.
You could just be stressed a little, did you have unprotected sex?
If your pregnant, you have to test now, there are vitamins that you have to be taking if you keep the baby, and you'll have to see a doctor to tell you when you should be due and to get other prenatal things done as well.
It doesn't just go away if you aviod it.
Pregnancy is a big thing, you have to be responsible about it now.
Take a test, ask a best friend or someone your close with to go with you to get one if our nervous.
