Hoping & praying!

Ok so I am on CD 30, and still no AF... I have slight cramping that just started this afternoon and had a very very light brownish tint in CM when I wiped.  I usually get my period on day 28 or 29... Should I take hcg test or wait a couple days? I'm so nervous and don't want to get my hopes up! Also, is it possible to get cramping around the time of period even if you are pregnant?
Thanks!
