My boyfriend and I have been together two years now and honestly have never used protection. I've always gotten my period and have had a few times where I was late that I thought I might be pregnant, all test were negative. I was due for menstration on 6/28 and didn't get it. My question is probably simple, but I'm unsure and could use some advice. I'm 9 days late for my menstration and I've been cramping since 7/2, I thought I was getting my period but I have no bleeding, only a slight discoloration on the tip of the tampon and this is not normal for me. How long does implantation cramping last? And when is a good time to take a test? Also, my boobs have been tender and fatigue has hit me hard, I feel like maybe I'm worried for no reason and that I should let it go... but at the same time if I am pregnant I want to make sure the baby gets what it needs. Help, please?

The best time to test is approximately 14 days after you miss your period.

Yes, you need to wait about one more week, then do a pregnancy test with the first urine of the morning.

There are of course many women who are never regular, and others who are a week or two late every now and then, some just miss a period sometimes. There is no way to tell what it can be.
