irregular period after sex

So this is going to be a little long, I have a lot of details.

So in January, my period was a week late, but wasn't worried too much about it since cycles change every once in a while. But in February I went to go see my boyfriend (He's in the Army and is stationed in a different state) from the 17th through the 21st. We had sex the 17th and 18th and he ejaculated inside both times. But then two days later, late at night, I got this light pink discharge. I wasn't expecting my period for another week or so, so I was a little confused. I thought maybe implantation bleeding but it was way too soon for that and later it turn into more of a period and lasted as long as a period. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck its a duck right? But still it was just a little strange that I got it early and all that so I used an ovulation calendar to see when I ovulated and to see when my next period will be according to my last two periods and whatnot. Turns out I ovulated that weekend I had sex. And was supposed to get my period around March 5th or 6th. I took a pregnancy test around that time since I never got another period and it came out negative. Now its march 30th and I still haven't gotten my period. I'm very alarmed and haven't gotten the chance to buy aand take another pregnancy test although I'm planning on it soon. Any advice or help???

Hi Anonymous,
When in January did you actually get your period? If I am understanding correctly, you got a period that began with light bleeding on February 20. Now, calculating the exact day of ovulation is tricky. Generally, a woman ovulates about 14 days before the onset of a period. If you had a period on February 20, wouldn't expecting a next period on March 5 or 6 be too early. On what day did you take the first home pregnancy test?
If your period for March should have begun around the 20th and you still have not had a period by today, March 30, it can be assumed that you are a week or so late. This would be the best time to repeat a home pregnancy test. Read and follow the directions carefully.

I got my period in January around the 26th. But it was a week late from when I had it in January. M period is all messed up. For the past few months its been kinda hard to keep track of. I guess I have to get a pregnancy test ASAP. And also I have gained a lot of weight. My school clinic gives blood pregnancy tests so I'll just have one done there for free. Thanks for you advice though! GREATLY APPRECIATED!!
