Where is my period?

[Taurean]

Hi juststarting!

Ah, AF made her entrance. That is a bugger but as you say, it gives you something to work with now. If you're a bit of a control freak like me and want to know what's going on with your body, I strongly suggest you start charting. Grab yourself an BBT (basal body thermometer) and OPK's if you like. Log all your info on a site such as Fertility Friend and you'll be amazed how much you learn about yourself.

Enjoy the journey - I hope it's short and sweet!

This may seem like a silly question but have you taken a HPT yet?

Hi - just wanted to add my 2 cents worth! I stopped taking the pill in April after being on it with no periods for about three years (as a hormonal treatment for endo). It took about six weeks for my first AF, which dr said is normal. He suggested waiting at least 2 months before ttc also, and I've read to wait until you have two 'normal' cycles off the pill before trying.
Also, I've used Maybe Baby everyday for about the last three months and have had one day of full ferning in all that time! BT this month confirmed O too (which happened on that one day of full ferning) My dr said the idea behind it is fine (and said CM also does the ferning thing too!). I'm guessing that an awful lot of people (me included) fall into the category of 'those that Maybe Baby isn't suitable for' ie low oestrogen levels etc
I know it's easier said than done, but be patient and good luck!

yup iv'e peed (sorry) on three sticks and nada. Im going to wait until after chrissie day then go to docs in jan if AF still hasn't arrived.

Im on the same boat as you ReggieB. Im on CD46 and still no period and have had negative HPT's. I was on the pill for about 2.5yrs and stopped taking it about 8 months ago. Been TTC for the last 4 months. I went to the doctor yesterday and im scheduled for a blood test if still no AF by the end of the week.

Wow Grake, good to know im not alone in this though. I went to the docs the other week, he said for me to come back mid feb if AF hasn't come and he would do some tests. I just have no idea why my body hasnt kicked back in, I was always normal before.
I am going to a Acupuncture & Chinese herbalist person this week who specialises in women's health so will see what she says.
Keep me informed on how you go and good luck!
