Busy yourself. I understand that when you're young or you have big plans that would have to change dramatically because of child (not saying you wouldn't be happy about a baby though) and your period is a day late or a few days late then you can get freaked pretty easily. First off as your reading this take a deep breath. Second Call up your guy and get a plan. Like when to take a home pregnancy test (most people recommend at least 5 days late). And come up with an "if" plan. That means if that test comes out positive what you're going to do. If you already have one of those you might want to talk about it. It can really make you feel better, trust me. Thirdly find something to really busy your mind. Go out with friends but don't talk about this. Do something with your pets or mom or find something to do by yourself. Anything to keep you from think about it. Because lets face it it's not going to rear it's ugly head until your body is ready for it too and stressing about it can make it even later as you know.

I'm sure you have very little to worry about. Sometimes, before I got on the pill, my period would be 10 days late, or it'd only spot for a day or two. I've been through this whole mess.... to many times, even though we were so careful we used condoms containing spermicide and he pulled out every time, because my body just went nuts and started leaving me with 40 day cycles. I never knew when it was coming. Thank God for the pill now though. :) Take a test, even a cheap one, in a few days if you're still late. After you see that little line you'll feel so much better.

Good Luck.

omg 1 day...thats it? haha...ive went 5 months without a period...also stress can cause your period to be late

There is no need to stress out about your period being late. Periods are known to come late. Some females even wait months because their period is late. A way to stop stressing about it is to say to yourself that you are not pregnant because he was wearing a condom, and that periods don't always come on time.

One way to stop stressing about a late period is to stop having sex and giving yourself a reason to worry.
