I'm going nuts!! Someone tell me what's going on! Please!!!  

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
I was due for my period last week and I'm still waiting.. 5 days late tomorrow.. I'm normally a really regular gal. REALLY regular. I've actually never had a period even 1 day late before. I've just weaned this last month so I'm wondering if that somehow has messed my horomones up? Even though I was having regular periods for several months before now...??? I've taken 3 tests and they have all been BFN. We weren't trying to get pregnant and this is actually not a very good time for us to have another one so this is all making me very nutty. What could be going on???? I still have a few drops left if I try to hand express. Could me still somewhat lactating somehow be masking the pregnancy horomone from being picked up on the tests? Is there anything I can do besides keep waiting??????? I'm losing it here.

If you just took the at home pregnancy tests, I would recommend spending the $30.00 or whatever to get a blood test. I have really screwy periods during breastfeeding and after weaning. A year later they are starting to be more normal. The blood test is much more accurate than the urine test.

And if you have had a stressful event in your life you could have simply just ovulated later than normal. This would make you late. I have had periods where I was 2 weeks later than I thought (and sometimes a week or more earlier) after pregnancy. It is very frustrating and I was never someone who was "regular."

And I would recommend charting your cycles, if you aren't already doing that. It takes about $10.00 to start and about 3 minutes out of your day, but you learn so much about your body from it.

Good luck!
