Missed period; milky white discharge. Could I be pregnant??

Hello everyone :)

      I should have started on the first of this month (happy new years to me haha) but now i'm 5 days late. It's not unusual for me to be late, so I wasn't particularly concerned about it. However I've noticed a milky white discharge, the past 3 days and still no period. This i have never noticed before with late periods. Its so strange because i feel like i AM on my period, but there's no blood. Just this milky white discharge. Along with the usual cramps, and some backache. I'm considering waiting untill the end of the week, and then purchasing a pregnancy test. I'm a little nervous of the outcome, but excited at the same time. I was wondering if any of you have any advice as to when i should take the pregnancy test(s), and if there is a specific type/brand that i should buy. Any comments/responses would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much!! :) And to any of you out there that are TTC good luck & best wishes!! :)

Hello!!!

Well I am currently 4 months now with my first and I had some symptoms along with no period. I experience really really sensitive breast more sensitive than when I am execting my period. I also had crzy cravings like ramen noodle and salsa....lol. I waited until I was 7 days late...then I purchased first response which tells to 5 days before your missed period. I think this is the best test. It should be pretty accurate. If you are really unsure look up some free pregnancy clinics and they will test for free and are very accurate. They can also help with additional material on pregnancy and what your next steps should be if the test is positive. Good luck, I hope this helps!

I don't want to be pregnant as I'm not ready so I follow the calendar rhythem for the past 8 years and never had a false alarm. I was once late lasted 36 days vs my normal 29 days. I had sex the first day of being fertile which was weird because my fertile week was early by 1 week. I only noticed I was fertile after we had sex. I was spotting. That worried me since I didn't see any prior signs. I follow the calendar but my body signals are more accurate. Had I seen the spotting I wouldn't have had sex. Anyways...my breast started getting sore 2 weeks before expected period which never happens it's always a week same with the cramps. This made me think I was getting my period early instead.  My cramps have been getting worse, I smelled cigarettes in my bf's car which I never smelled before (car was owned by a smoker) today is day 30 and the white cloudy sticky odourless discharge happened. Not a lot just a little which is weird. I really thought it was my period....and I've been really tired lately. Usually these are signs for getting you period too but I'm just freaking out because I had sex when I shouldn't have had sex.... Should I wait a little longer before taking a test?

I havent gotten my period since october 27... Its not unusual for me to be late but i had sex one time during the time i was fertile and he came inside me... A couple days later i start getting white discharge and it still hasnt stopped... Its actually getting heavier each day  even after a missed period... Its not normal for me to get this creamy white discharge ... But it doesnt itch at all ... And i want to know can i be pregnant?....

Hi discuit42. I'm in the exact same position as you right now! I'm now 9 days late on my period, getting quite a lot of pregnancy signs & I took 3 tests 4 days ago and they all came back negative! About 3 days ago i noticed my discharge wasn't like it usually is to me. It was getting more fluidly & heavier, which seemed a little worrying to me as my discharge is usually quite thick & I don't usually produce much discharge either.
Long story short; Earlier on, around dinner time ish, I'd gone to the toilet to pee, finished my business & went to head for the sofa to chill out & all of a sudden I felt this weird wetness in my underwear & I almost thought I'd just come on my period or maybe I hadn't finished peeing and I had accidentally peed in my pants! But no.. there was no blood. I hadn't peed myself either.. It was just a load of white milky (odourless) discharge! I couldn't tell you how much was there to be precise but I reckon there must have been a good decent sized tea spoon!
I'm going to take another test(s) tomorrow as I think it might have been too early to tell last time. You can go to the doctors to ask for blood tests if you explain your problem to them about the negative tests and how late you are on your period & they can get a much more accurate result through blood tests. Good luck! :)

Today is April 27 2015.  Last month I had my period for 2 days which was really short, and this month I did not get my period at all. At first i noticed heavy white creamy miky odorless discharge, and then i started feeling nauseaous during the day unless I would eat something and now i am 28 days past my missed period and am sleeping alot more than i ever would. Today I felt a little crampy around my left ovary. I am not sure what to think- I have taken 5 tests and all were negative.
