Am I pregnant?

I'm 17 (I know I'm young) my period is 6 days late. I have been experiencing cramps all last week and this week, 2 days ago they were to the point were if I had one I would fall to the ground crying in agony. Yesterday and today though they have been very mild. Being late is normal because I am on birth control, but the pain is new. In my opinion I believe they were close to feeling like contractions. I may be wrong but this is what I believe. I took a test at midnight 2days ago and it was negitave. I'm not convinced I'm not. My mother doesn't think I am but I think she is in denial since she got pregnant at 17. I'm worried something might be medically wrong or that I might be pregnant.
