I missed my period by three weeks yesterday, October 22, 2002. Today, I have small amounts of brown discharge. It's not like a normal period at all. I've been feeling pregnant almost the entire time. I even have clear to milky-like nipple discharge. I've taken several at-home pregnancy tests and three blood serum tests, and they are all negative (the last blood test being yesterday).
