This is my first time posting, and while I didn''t think that it would be about this, here goes. I apologize in advance if any of this is TMI.
My DH and I have been married for 8 months. I was previously on BCP, but I went off a few months ago because I didn''t really like the way it was making me feel anymore. We have used condoms religiously since. Prior to being on the pill, my periods were always very regular, usually between 28-31 days. My first cycle after ending the pill was 27 days, and my second was 28 days. My period is now late, and today is 35 days since my last period.
I took a HPT two days ago and it came back negative. I don''t really feel like I have any other symptoms, other than breast tenderness, and that is something that I have from a week before up until my period starts anyway. I know that I probably shouldn''t be concerned as my body is most likely just working things out since stopping the pill. However, my cycle has never been this long, and I have not been under an abnormal amount of stress. I''ve been researching on the internet and hearing that some women claim that they didn''t get positive results until several weeks after their missed periods when in fact they were pregnant.
This would be very unexpected and somewhat "bad timing" for us so I am concerned. Everyone on these boards seems so nice and I was just wondering if anyone has had a similar experience and what the outcome was.
Thanks in advance!
