I missed a period. I am EBF and got my period back last month, at 6 months pp. We have been NTNP so I am okay being pregnant again, but I took a cheap dollar store pregnancy test and got a negative. That was 3 days ago. My period is officially 10 days late or not coming at all. I have been cramping and feeling nauseous. Should I test again? Or am I just skipping a period? What do you guys think? (: thanks in advance (:

I'm not sure, but I thought getting your period back post-partum was somewhat like getting your period back after BCP... your cycles can take a little while to get regulated. You could just be having a weird, long cycle as you body adjusts.
No harm in testing again though!

As an EBFer, mine came back really heavy by 7th month. Missed month 8's regular schedue but it finally came like 15 days late and then came 2wks after that again! 9th and 10th month finally started feeling like a regular monthly schedule.

Like @pui said, postpartum periods can be a little wacky before they fully regulate themselves. You can still test, but it might just be late.
