Where is my period?

[ReggieB]

Hi
Im new to TTC and im very confused!! I stopped taking the pill on the 8th December, since then I have had no period. I have also been using Maybe Baby for 3 weeks and I am only gettin pebbles - constantly!! It is so fustrating. When do I get my period and when do I ovulate? I have seen the GP had the blood tests and he said everything is fine.
But i have had no sign of ovulation!!

Hi Reggie!

It can take a while for your body to become regular again - and I mean regular for ovulation and periods as well. When was your last period?

[ReggieB]

Im not entirely sure! as I used the pill to skip periods. I had a 2 day light bleed when i stopped the pill but I have been told that it doesnt mean anything. It is just so fustrating seeing the little pebbles every day for three weeks - surely something should of happened by now!!
But its been over a month now and no period / cramps. I am wondering if this Maybe bay thing is crap?

Quite a number of girls have posted negative thoughts about Maybe Baby. I'm getting some OPK's tonight on the way home but I'm going for the POAS type, steering clear of Maybe Baby. Friends of mine had complained about it too.

OK, no period as yet. As much as it is frustrating, you just need to sit tight and wait. Maybe get some different OPK's to try and I strongly suggest you look at this website Ovulation Calendar and Ovulation Chart - FertilityFriend.com and start charting. You will need to get a basal body temperature thermometer (about $15 at the chemist).

Do you remember if you were regular before you started skipping? Also, just because you stopped taking the pill, it doesn't mean you will automatically get your period. It might take a few weeks and that's if your cycles are somewhat regular. I'm sorry hon but you just need to give it time. Definitely try charting though. I, and many other girls in these forums, have found it very useful and interesting.

Oh, and keep going through the forums on this site. They are fabulous!!!

Thank you so much for your help your wonderful! I will stop and get some tonight for myself and this Maybe Baby thing is going to get ditched x

Hey ladies just a word of advice, go onto Lullaby Conceptions website and order your bulk packs of ovulation kits as they would get very costly buying from the chemist or supermarket. You can also buy your basal body temperature thermometer and bulk pregnancy testers also.

Hope i helped.

Well did my first session of acupuncture and got some little round black ball chinese herbs I have to take twice every day. I see her again Thursday night for another treatment and more pills. VERY expensive though so see how we go. I have given myself about 4 weeks I think if this and have already booked in a doctors appoit as if this doesn't work I am going to ask him for Clomid or something - hopefully he will give it to me!

Well good luck with that hopefully it works for you.

I've had my blood test which came up negative so tommorow im scheduled for some more tests to check everything out. I think my period may be on its way though, been experiancing some cramping past few days.

Might ask the doc to prescribe me the clomid too!
