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 22 years old and only recently went on the contraceptive pill. I had unprotected sex 12 days ago on the same day in which i forgot to take my pill. I took it the next day a couple of hours before I was due to take the next one. Since then I have had stomach cramps, my stomach doesn't fold in when i bend down and is hard. My 7 day break from the pill started 5 days ago and today is the first day I have had a bleed. It is only small but I noticed it is an unusual brown colour and more like a discharge. I have also been feeling very faint. I know there is a possibility, but is it too soon to be showing signs of a possible pregnancy? I'm nervous.

I started spotting yesterday July 28.  Not a period.  The spotting only comes when I wipe myself.  I just got of my period July 3-7.  Which is not a usual cycle for me.  Now today July 29 I have a brown discharge.  I am not expected to come on my cycle until August 2 or 3.  I come on like clock work.  Could I be starting my period or could I be pregnant?  My boyfriend and I have unprotected sex all the time.  I am 33 years old.  I have not gained weight.  My breast a tender (but this happen on a regular when I start me cycle), I am sleepy all the time, moody, smells are really strong for some reason, and I have been sick (nausea).  I have never experience this.  Can anyone help me?
