Okay so i havent gotten my period yet not exactly sure when i should be gettin it because im usually on a 28 day cycle and got my last period on the 11th of decemeber. the only thing is that my period was late last month. i never get my period during the week i usually get it either friday or saturday. plus my sister and i get ours around the same time and she already started hers. should i take a pregnancy test or should i wait?

thanks

it's kinda close to take one now, I'd wait another week (or even two) then test. Sounds like you are younger, so your periods could be a little off even month to month. Don't stress over it, that could only make it worse. Try not to think about it and continue your life, that's what I did when mine came a week/two weeks late.

my periods are never late though. thats why last month i thought i was prego. i'm 19 yrs old im just not sure if being late last month will mean my period wont come until the begining of next week or if i will still get it this weekend? However my boyfriend and i are TTC so i hope that i could be prego. ive been getting headaches and eating alot lately so i hope this is it =]
