**Rache** · 10-12-2011 10:23 AM

Im not really sure if i should be posting this here or on the other forum but here goes, well usually my cycle is for 31 days but its now my 34th day and my period hasnt arrived yet. My boyfriend and i had our thing 12 days ago, which was suppose to be my safe period and we did the pull out method, a day after we did it, i started feeling some of my PMSs (breast hurts, lower back hurts) but until now no cramping.
This whole week has also been a bit stressful, by dad being at the hospital, sleeping very late, thinking about work, and worring if im pregnant.
Im so worried because i am also feeling abit nauseous and i pant easily this whole week. Now im really worried, am i pregnant or is my cycle just delayed because of the events this week? Please help

It's probably just delayed because of your stress. You can take a pregnancy test at this point though, and it should be pretty effective.

Is it really fine to take a pregnancy test this early? Sorry for asking too much questions

its just that, even thinking about getting a pregnancy test gets me all nervous and stuff lol!

Different tests have different time frames. But in general, any time after your period WAS due should be fine.

A note - pregnancy tests are an item that you CAN buy the generic for. Look for a test with two separate lines, not a plus sign, in a generic brand. No need to drop $10 on a test you could spend $1 on.

So can anyone help me? Last month I got my period four days late because I was stressing over possibly being pregnant. Me and my boyfriend have been together four years and we just recently started having sex. We ALWAYS use protection. We use condoms, and* he pulls out with the condom on, before he ejaculates. This month I am 11 days late and I am freaking out. I have a period tracker on my phone and we did not have sex around my fertile or ovulating time, and once again, we used protection like always. I do not have any symptoms except for cramping/abdominal pain. On the fourth day of my missed period I took a HPT and it came back negative. On the 6th day I had a rush of brown/red blood (sorry tmi) and thought it was my period, however, when I checked the tampon I had put in, there was nothing there at all. I have not had any spotting since then. I got super scared over this because I have read that implantation bleeding can also occur after your late period, so I'm terrified I'm truly baffled over all of this! I am not on birth control but will be within the next two months. Deep down, I do not believe I am pregnant but I cannot help but worry. I am thinking I am late due to stress, but can stress really make me this late?? Thoughts, anyone???

Take a test. But think about it: If you're using a condom AND pulling out, it is virtually impossible that any sperm would have come into contact with your vagina, much less that it would have traveled or fertilized anything.
