My period is late by approx. 8 days and i cant help but worry!

I wouldnt say that my period is irregular, I do get it monthly,and i'm typically late by few days. The longest I've ever been late has been two weeks, but that was a couple years ago. I got my period on December 26th, January 29th, Feburary 29th, and it is now April 8th with no period. My bf and I had sex for the first time feb 18th, and i got my period on feb 29th. In march we had sex on the 18th, 22nd and 24th. I am not on birth control, but we did use condoms, and he withdrew before he came. We did this every time.

I have all my regular pms symptoms such as sore and fuller breasts, minor cramping (off and on for 4 days so far, although ive felt it more consistantly last night and today), fuller feeling in my abdominal area,a bit of white mucous-like discharge last night and once earlier in the week, and I've had a couple crying spells.
I understand that stress can play a significant factor and delay one's period. I recently rear-ended someone while driving, i've been fighting with my mom lately, and i have 3 exams in the next two weeks.Waiting for my period has been a scary experience and has made me more anxious and even more stressed. My biggest fear is if I were to be pregnant. My bf has been great at supporting me during this time, and it helps temporarily, but the absence of my period worries me more each passing day!

Help!
