your pregnant
It means your period is five days late. Only you know your chances of being pregnant.
probalbly just a late period, but a 10.00 dollars pregnancy test is a sure way of knowing.
when you miss your period, and if you are pregnant, does your body still cramp like it does when you are starting your period?
26 days is not "late", it's "missing entirely." Yes, you could be.
If you are late, That is reason enough for you to do a test. Throwing up after 5 days is very early for morning sickness but could also be a sign. The looking at meat thing I doubt has anything to do with it.
Because you obviously have a 42 day cycle.It's that simple, although 28 days is average everyone is different and your period may be late.
Just barely. It depends how long your cycle is.
What if you are three days late for your period? It's normal for there to be around 7 days variation from your average menstrual cycle. A few days 'late' isn't a big deal, as long as you're not sexually active no reason for you to worry about it.
