Virus or Something Else?

Hey ladies.

You are all so wonderful and knowledgeable about this topic, I thought that I would seek some advice. Here's what's going on: I had ovulation pain and EWCM on 2/16-2/17. Usually my boyfriend and I use condoms, but he had just gotten back in town, and in the heat of the moment and celebrating Valentine's day, well, you know, it didn't quite happen. We BD'd on 2/16 and 2/17. He pulled out on 2/17 before he came, but on 2/16 I don't think he quite got it (get my drift?)

Anyway, so I am supposed to get my period today, 2/28. I have a very regular cycle. This morning when I wiped there was a little bit of pinkish/brownish stuff, so I put in a tampon and went on my way. I ended up coming home from work sick today (sore throat, low-grade fever, icky feeling) and when I went to go change it, there was barely anything on it. Not a huge deal, but now it's been 8 hours, I haven't had a tampon in at all, and there is nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Maybe its just a slow start to my period because I'm sick? I know that as soon as I post this and you ladies respond, I'll get my period in full force! Thanks in advance for your responses, I just wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts. I haven't had any other symptoms, although I swore I was smelling crazy scents today when I was driving. Probably all in my head!

Hope everyone had a good Thursday, the weekend is soon!

Just thought I would update really quick. Still no period this morning, I took a FRER and it was negative. Should I just wait a couple of more days and if I don't get my period still just take another test?

Hi


I think you should wait at least two days (easier said than done) than take another test if you have not yet gotten AF.
