Only 3 days late with lots of cramping but no bleeding, what's going on?

Question

My husband & I had s*x two days before I predicted my ovulation. And I propped up a pillow and we went to sleep (sorry if TMI).

I was supposed to start my period on Mon 8/18, and I have been cramping on and off since Sun 8/17. I thought I was definitely going to start when I woke up monday.

I took a Target brand pregnancy test on wednesday, which was negative. I'm so tired of running to the bathroom to see if I started my period or not and also thinking I might be pregnant.

The only symptoms I have are like PMS, cramping, bloating, breaking out, moody. But I have also been extremely tired and taking two hour naps.

With my last pregnancy (which ended in miscarriage @ 8wks) I didn't test positive until a week and a half after my missed period.

I am also on antidepressants to control my chronic headaches, and have taken some valium as well. And this is my first month off birthcontrol (last period 7/22).

Anyone have cramping like this with no period? Could I be having a really early miscarriage? I'm going nuts here.....
