3 days late

I'm currently 3 days late on my period. I stopped taking bc in June and my periods have been pretty regular since. I normally have very sore breasts about a week or 2 before Af but this month I have nothing. I noticed this morning that my nipples were a bit more sensitive than usual and a little bit of light cramping on and off but that's about it. I took a test yesterday and it was BFN. It's my birthday today and I want to go out but not sure if I should be drinking. How long should I wait to test again? Is it ok to be drinking?!

    If you got a BFN, you can drink tonight.

    You are totally safe to drink. Even if hypothetically you were pregnant, the alcohol would not affect the baby until a placenta is formed and that is much later, like 2-3 weeks from now. It's like your bodies safety mechanism to protect the fetus until you find out you are pregnant.

    My bet is you are not pregnant. I would wait a few days, take another test, then start testing once a week until your period comes. If it doesn't come within about 60 days you need to go to your gynecologist. If you aren't temping, it would be best to start so that you have an idea if you ovulated and how long your LP is... then you will know in the future if you are actually late or not. I have always had periods like clockwork. Literally never had a cycle other than 29 days except when on the pill (28 days)... but it can still happen so don't count it out. You may have been sick or under stress or practically anything else and your body ovulated late.
