Stopping Seasonale.

I stopped Seasonale when my last pink pack was finished (Aug 13). I started my period a bit late then (by two days). And it was over with in a day and a half. I've been off the Seasonale for a month now and I'm due for AF. Actually, I was due Thursday for AF but its now Sunday and no AF. I've had minor cramping like my period wants to start. And it feels like it wants to start but..no show. I'm starting to get worried. My DH and I've used precautions since I stopped taking Seasonale and have been very careful. I know that I haven't had a true period in two years. I've been on some form of BCP for a year now.

Is this normal? Should I POAS to make sure? When do I need to call my doctor?

I have been under an extreme amount of stress the past week. And I stopped the Seasonale b/c my blood pressure was so high. And I was getting migraines up to 3 a week.

Any ideas?

It can be VERY normal for your first few periods off of birth control to be a little wacky.
