Please help

I was supposed to start the 27th but only spotted the 27th 28th and 29th and now nothing since i did the same with my last child but didnt get a positive with him til i was 6 weeks. I have tested the 29th and may 2nd which was negative. I'm confused on when i should test since it took so long for my last to show up. Someone please help has this ever happened to anyone else and if so when should i retest. Thank you in advance.
