Hi I just wanted to know if anyone could give me a clue as to what could possibly be going on. Â Not expecting diagnosis of course but i am just clueless.
Â
I am 30 yr old, mother of 4 my youngest is 2yrs old and still nursing.  I have always had what I  consider to be my normal cycles (avg 34-44 days).  My last period was Dec13 on Jan1 (cd20) w/d was less than perfect but I didn't feel like it was a major oops.  My period didn't come when expected but i didn't really think I was pregnant. Once it was 10dys late I just said well I guess I must be pregnant because I've never  missed a period and not been pregnant.  I missed an OB appt last week so I finally went out and bought a test (family dollar brand- only $4 but the date on box was still good).  The test was negative.  In my gut i just don't feel pregnant, but i also am not in love with the idea of being pregnant again either, so I am wondering if I am just in denial of any symptoms I could be having and the test test was just defective??Â
My PP periods have always returned at 6-8months and continued. Â I am nursing mostly at nite maybe once or twice during the day. Â I would say that nite nursing has picked up alot in January, since DD has been more clingy.
All I have is an absent period no sore breasts or change in the appearance of my breasts which are always my sure sign.
Â
Is there anything else medically that could be causing my period to be late or is it likely that the increased nursing suppressed O?
Â
Â
Thanx for any input
