I’m 5 weeks pregnant I’ve now got...

Can being ill (snotty and coughy) cause a missed or late period??

I'm 4 days late, I'm usually pretty regular, so I've tested for pregnancy twice, both negative. We've been TTC so I'm getting my hopes up a little, but I'm also ill, so I'm wondering if that's just messed up my cycle.

Line progression? Does it really matter?

Hello ladies!
