Is this normal.? Anyone else.? Any advice.?

Hey ladies, I have a question. What are y’all’s usual temps.? Since Friday mine has been 98.4 instead of around 97. Af was supposed to start between 4/26 and 4/28 but instead I spotted from the 26th to 29th, I had some cramps, but not like af cramps, I mostly had this weird pinch or poke on my left side, but I still haven’t had af yet, and my temp has been up. I did take a test and it looks negative to me, but I can post it. Any advice would be super helpful. Should I wait longer to test.?
