Q: late period cramps pregnant ?

asked by: valerielee741 on February 27th, 2008

Here's my problem: My period was supposed to be around the 19th, but it's late. I've had some cramps on and off for the last few days, but all I've had was white discharge instead of blood. I also had the flu not long before I was supposed to get my period, which is still not here. Is this normal? Should I take a pregnancy test? Thanks for any input

If you've missed your period then yes you should take a HPT. ramps in early pregnancy are quite common as well is discharge. Are you TTC?

no, not at all. I think its a normal amount of discharge and most people have said that the flu probably threw it off. Should I be worried?

The flu could have thrown it off because being sick can cause stress which in return can delay your cycle. But to be on the safe side seeing as how you have tech. missed it as of now, I would go a head and take a HPT. If it's neg. fine but if it's pos. then you need to schedule a dr. appointment asap!
