Could I be pregnant?

TMI but I normally get bad cramps, lots of acne, sore breasts, lower back pain and digestive issues the couple of days leading up to my period and during. That's how I normally know when it's coming. My period is now 5 days late and I haven't had any of my regular period symptoms. I've been feeling very nauseous in the few hours after I wake up, my skin has gotten clearer, and I've been having very light cramping.

Could be. Have you taken a test?

Not yet, my period was supposed to come on the 3rd of Jan. I was going to test on the 10th when it was officially a week late.

If you've had sex, then you could be pregnant

If you’ve already missed your period, all tests are 99% accurate at detecting a pregnancy. The only way to be sure is to test. Good luck!

I took a test today and it was negative :( I'm planning to take another tomorrow morning. If it's still negative and my period doesn't come for another week then I'm going to take the last one.

Sorry @Apricity hope you get your positive soon x

I am now almost 2 weeks late with no period in sight, could there still be a chance? I've heard stories of people not testing positive until quite a few weeks in but I feel like that's pretty rare.
