Okay, so me and my boyfriend had sex on Oct 16th, 19th and 21st. we used a spermicidal condom and he pulled out before he came. we also checked to make sure that nothing was coming out of it. But for some reason, I started thinking about me getting pregnant. I am supposed to get my period sometime in the begging of Nov. I have been researching stuff about pregnancy and signs and symptoms. But the more I do, the more i get worried. My breasts are getting sore, a typical sign before period. I usually keep track on my cervical mucus for ovulation but i don't remember it. I went to the bathroom today and saw a discharge that was similar but still am freaking out. And i don't know if its from worrying too much but i have been feeling nausea but mostly when i start thinking about getting pregnant. I am really really scared and just cant afford to get pregnant (not money wise, but situation wise) and there is no way either one of us is ready. And i dont know if its just my imagination but to me it seems like my aereola got slightly bigger. I dont know if that always been like and i never noticed till now. and i do get slight cramping but i always do before my period. i just cant calm donw. i am soooo scared. please let me know what you all think. i am probly going to wait 1 more week and if nothing comes up then take a pregnancy test.

Many things can delay your period, including stress, and you've described having a lot of it. You've also described symptoms many women get before they start their period. It may be hard, but please try to relax and let nature take its course. It's a good idea to go ahead and take the pregnancy test but most likely you're just having a delayed period.
