I'm sure there have been a million posts like this, but I'm freaked, so forgive me.
My period is six days late. Normally I wouldn't worry so much as my period has been known to jump around a bit (it's been a week late before for no apparent reason), but I recently became sexually active. Me and the boyfriend have used a condom every time (I'm waiting to start birth control pills), and never had any break, but I know condoms are not 100% effective.
I've taken two pregnancy tests (one First Response last night, and one Clear Blue just half an hour ago), and both have come back negative, but I know those aren't always accurate, so I'm still worried. My plan for now is to wait a week and test again. If it still comes back negative and I still don't have my period, I was going to go to the doc's and get a blood test.
I'm so scared. Have any of had your period be a week or two late and still had it turn out okay? (In other words, you period eventually showed up?) I'm wondering if I'm just stressing myself out and making it worse... I'm not exhibiting any pregnancy symptoms (morning sickness, sore breasts), but I'm paranoid.
