Has this ever happened to any of you mamas?...

I got my period back about 4 months ago. I'm still breastfeeding my almost 1 year old. Actually she'll be 1 tomorrow!! Anyway, I am now at least 5 days late. I have NEVER been late except when I've been pregnant. Even the past 4 periods I've had since she was born have been right on. I took a pregnancy test the other day and it was negative. I'm just very confused. Could I be pregnant or is this just from nursing? She's not nursing any more then before, she's actually nursing less the past few weeks! Please tell me that this has happened to one of you before! It wouldn't be a horrible thing if I was pregnant, but it's very hard to just not know anything!

I was 5 days late, i was almost sure i was pg, but no.
Here i am a cycle later and late again, with ANOTHER BFN
sorry no real help as to WHY but i can say its happened to me i guess.

still nurseing 21 mo- often

I'd love to hear others experiences, and ideas!

Just learned this recently myself...even bfing LESS can be enough to throw your cycle off. I thought it was only when bfing MORE, but it's not. ANY changes in the bf relationship can change a cycle.
