Brown spotting and light bleeding not sure if it is my period or am I pregnant

I was scheduled to get my period on July 22 or 23.  on those 23rd I assumed I was getting my period because I start out with a brown discharge.  But the that discharge is still here.  When I wipe after going to bathroom sometimes the discharge is light on toilet tissue and sometimes I will get very light blood.  I still have this discharge and I know if it was to be my period it should be over by now.  Could I be pregnant.  I took a pregnancy test last Monday and it came back negative but I don't have no signs of being pregnant either.  Should I want til it stops and hope for a period next month, take a pregnancy test, or go to the doctor.  This has never happened before.  I don't know what this is.  Hope someone can tell me.

Hi, I'm a mother of one and my husband and I re trying for baby #2. We just started trying this month. We had sex maybe a week ago or maybe a week and a half that's when he *** in me. My period was due yesterday but instead of my usual heavy bleeding I'm having light brown discharge on my tampon when I take it out. I've worn a tampon because I don't want to start and not know and have it all over my pants. But when I wipe I don't have anything. Can soneone please help me?!..

Hey ladies :)
I'm having a similar problem, I'm not on the pill though .
I missed my period in Feb. took a test and it came out negative. I was month and a few days late obvs. but my period is very light, it's like it's not even there. I had brown dishcarge very little at the end of Jan. and I had it two days ago very light and it went back to red. What does this mean?

Hi ladies! =) I am having a similar problem. Jan to Oct 2010 my period was completely regular. It came on time down to the day it was suppose to come. It was never late nor early. Then Nov came and it was 3 days late. I took a test, but it came. Then Dec came & it was 4 days late. I took a test, but it came. Then Jan came & it was 1 day early. My period was due Feb 27th 2011.. & Im still waiting for it 7 days later. I have been having small cramp sessions (coming and going & not everyday) and that is unusual for me because I usually get full blown cramping. I am not on any birth control and am currently using the pull out method. I am usually 29 to 30 days in between my periods & am now on day 36. I have been having a little more white discharge than normal. This morning I went to the bathroom & noticed a small amount of a pinkish color added to the discharge. A very light amount was also on the toilet paper. I have not taken a HTP test because of past experiences. Could this be my period finally coming? Or do you think enough time has past that I can take a HTP test? Any opinions would be great! Thanks.
