Unsure what is going on with me.

I am a little concerned about my body at present. i am currently overweight by my BMI. I have to become 9 stone for my height to be a healthy weight. Me and my fiance are trying for a baby. i was meant to start my period on the 8th because that was 21 days since my last one. I have not come on i took a pregnancy test the day i was meant to start and it told me negative. i have gotten the cramps in my stomach like i am going to start. i am 3 days late. should i wait until 28 days when i might come on and then if i do get a test again? I am very new to the pregnacy thing and i am a little nervous. i have been drinking a lot of water and i walk as much as i can so i can reduce my weight to give me regular periods and also for when i get pregnant. any advice welcome. rach

Sudden changes such as exercise, diet etc can also affect your period so it's possible this had made it late. If your periods tend to be irregular then this is quite common and can make it hard to know when to test! I hope things work out for you x

Hi, I was 7 days late this month and came on yesterday. My advice is to leave it a week and try again. It could be you got neg because there isn't enough hormone to read yet (so a week gives it time to build up) or it could be just a late af. Have you come ofx the pill recently? x
