So it's been almost 3 weeks since I had sex. I normally get my period on the 25th day after my last period but last month I didn't get it till the 33rd day. I have kinda been stressing out a lot and have been sick on and off since that day. It is now the 28th day and I still havenm't got my period. Should I wait longer to take a test? It's eating me up inside not knowing, I have a preg test (answer) that shows 4 days before a missed period. And what do I do if I am? There's so many twists to my story I dont know what to do!

I can't help you too much considering I thought my period was just late, but it turns out i'm pregnant. I do know that stressing over things will make your period later. There's been times when I thought I was pregnant, and I started stressing over it and all it did was make my period late. I don't really have any advice, but if you want to talk i'll be around.

I'm having the same problem. I had sex 1 mth ago & I was supposed to get my period yesterday & haven't gotten it yet. I've been stressing over it since the day after it happened so i'm hoping that's why i'm late. I feel your pain, the situation is complicated with me too -- let me know how it works out for you !

I would take another test then wait for your next period to come. I had my period for the first 2 months and just thought I was sick and was getting a light period. You will feel better when everything is all sorted out.

Aight well I tried taking a test on friday. It was e.P.T. Certainity test, you know one of those really expensive ones that my friends bought me but when I tried taking it started doing these weird things and it wouldn't give me the answer. So now it is valentine's day, a day that I should be spending with my boyfriend and not stressing out over other stuff. One of my friends is going to take me to planned parenthood tomorrow. Im going to have to skip school in the morning and I dont want my parents to find out. I might be able to stay home and go from my house but if I can't is there any way that you guys know to get it covered so my parents dont find out. Do you think that the counselor would cover for me if me and her have a good relationship or no? Anyways how should I tell the guy that I think got me pregnant? You see I had got drunk and ended up having sex with this guy. He was a "good" friend (@ least I thought) and I had a boyfriend of 7 months. Thats why I have been stressing out, it's areally bad situation you know.My boyfriend know there's a chance but I haven't told the other guy yet. Should I tell him there's a chance or should I wait until I know for sure, i'm already a whole 8 days late for my period? Thank you for all your advice.

I would take another hpt. I don't think you should skip school to go to planned parenthood unless you are absolutely sure your parents won't find out. Tell them u have something to do after school and go then. B/c if u get caught then u might get all nervous trying to make up a lie....Atleast thats what would happen if it was me....I always get nervous when lying about something that I really don't want somebody to know...

Just a suggestion! Good luck...Let us know what happens!

Or you could tell your parents what you are going to do instead of lying to them. That is what most parents want. Their telling them the truth whether or not is something they don't want to hear. They still would want their kids to tell the truth. Telling your parents the truth will probably be more helpful to you then not telling them.

I wasn't on yesterday and from what you wrote you probably know by now if youre pregnant. The main thing is if you are to tell your parents as soon as you can cuz theyre gonna find out one way or another sooner or later, and the sooner you tell them the easier its gonna be and - believe it or not - the better theyll take it. It'll also be easier on you cuz you wont have to good around worrying about how to tell them and how to keep it from them until you do. Good luck and let us know how it goes!
