I need some help

I am normally a little late for my period but it has been a week now thats a couple days longer then usual even for me. I am experiencing normal cramps like usual before my period but im still slightly concerned. I have a sex with my boyfriend but it was like a week and a half before i was suppose to get my period. Is there any chance that i can be pregnant?

This makes me feel a lot better! I am about three weeks late and i had sex about a month ago and the condom broke but i think it was before he ejaculated. then about a week or so later i got cramps like i was going to start but i never did and i have been freaking out because non of my family knows I've had sex. So I've been super scared! but this makes me feel a little better.

You sound just like me! I started out the same way. I felt like I was going to start my period but I never did. I've always had irregular periods since my first, but the last couple from what I can remember have been within the 28 to 35 days. I've only had unprotected sex one time and the morning after I woke up to my period. After that though, there were a couple times when the condom broke, but I think they broke before he ejaculated. And just recently, about 2 to 3 weeks ago, after being a couple weeks late I took 2 pregnancy tests that were both negative. I waited for my period and it has now been about a month and a half I've been late. I haven't had any symptoms of pregnancy besides the missed period and just today I noticed some white, odorless discharge that was kind of thick. I've been so worried I may be pregnant. I heard that some pregnant women never show positive results on home pregnancy tests. Also, I read that ectopic pregnancies sometimes show as a negative result. This is also my first time being normally sexually active but I read that this isn't a reason for having a delayed period. I've been worrying so much about it! That's why I just signed up for this site. I'm planning on calling a clinic tomorrow with my questions.

You should take a pregnancy test if you are worried since you are late. Cramps are probably a good sign but you can also get crampy with pregnancy from implantation and your uterus stretching.

There is a chance you could be pregnant but it could also be due to stress that you're late as well. Women are mainly ovulating around 16 days or so after the first day of their period (about two weeks). If you had sex during that time, there's a good chance. I wouldn't worry too much. If you aren't, worrying about this could make you even more late than what you are right now.
