what would you do?

i posted this morning about being 5 days late and getting a neg POS. i've been having cramping that don't feel like regular period cramps. should i wait till Monday to get a blood test (don't have money for another POS and don't want to alert MIL yet), or should go to the hospital or something? i'm just worried something is wrong but don't want to make the trip over nothing/something stupid

do you not have like a medical clinic open today to get a blood test...if not i would just wait till monday ....
or buy a dollar test from dollar tree or w/e dollar store you have

pretty sure they're closed if they were even open today. DH and i don't have ANY money...

Do you have free clinics there? If the pain is severe i'd go to ER, it could be a cyst or ectopic. If it's not that bad after taking a tylenol then i'd wait till a clinic tomorrow or Monday.

I would think it would just be cheaper to get a $1 test in a few more days then go to the hospital. Give it a few more days and if nothing, hit up the dollar store, or see if you can get into a free clinic.

they're all closed. . guess i'm waiting till monday because i don't think they're open tomo...

Just wait. This certainly isn't ER worthy.

i really didn't think it was. i just freak out because i have chronic pain there (which is why i can't tell if its period cramps). i'm always scared it's my appendix. my brothers ruptured when i was like 12 and he almost died. kinda made me paranoid

If the pain gets severe you can call/go to ER. Do you have endometriosis or PCOS or IBS? if you don't have a diagnosis i'd get all of those things ruled out.
