Oh yes Ciara - remedial massages are a must have! I go weekly for mine, hah!
I know what you mean about feeling comforted - thats why this forum is so great to share your stories and experiences, but also to read everyone else's... not one story is the same story! Everyone is going through something, and it is really nice to relate.
After coming off the pill I was anywhere from 60-90 days between periods. FRUSTRATING!
I went to my gp and she diagnosed me with pcos. I don't have the normal symptoms of it, but after a check my ovaries were polycystic and I was irregular.
I went into acupuncture and this helped heaps, just to fix up my body in general and I also fell pregnant after 5 months.
Definitely get the soreness checked.
The length of time between AF is generally because you aren't ovulating. I needed to kick start my body back into ovulating. I had always been irregular (30-35 days) before I went on the pill, but the pill was the worst thing for me and mucked me up more.
Exercise, healthy eating will all help as well. As my acupuncturist said "healthy mum, healthy baby". In other words you have to get your body right to conceive and then give your baby the best shot possible.
I also found when i was going through a massiv cycle I was a bit crazy because my hormones were helter skelter! So you are felling completely normal.
