Hi Briana,

I am usually right on time with mine as well, but a few months ago I was two weeks late and not pregnant. In fact, when I was 16 it went away all together for 3 months straight for no apparent reason. My body gets all screwed up like that when I'm under stress. You can be late, even really late, for a lot of reasons other than pregnancy, although I wouldn't dismiss that possibility either. Take another test, and if that comes up negative and you still don't get your period, I would see about getting a doctor's appointment to get a blood test done. There is probably a Family Planning Center in your area that can help you with more information. Hang in there!
