Experienced women please help

Courtney

Someone experienced please give me some advice. No-one commented on my post the other day..

My period is 5 days late. Been trying for babies for 3 years now.

For some time now I've been having bad abdominal cramps, lots of back pain, diarrhea, nipples hurt, and some nausea. I'm having all the pains my period would give me (if I were on my period).

Is it normal to have a late period by 5 days and still have period symptoms?

Please help. I don't want to take a pregnancy test right now. If you have been trying for awhile like I have, you know how a negative pregnancy test can affect you..
