Hi girls,

AF was due yeasterday, it has yet to show. I don't really have any symptoms that it is going to show either. I took an HPT today (not FMU) and it still shows negative. How long can it take for HSG levels to show up on HPTs? I am starting to get frustrated. At least if AF would show, I could start over. I am still hoping that I may be PG,what are your thoughts?

Additionally, this month is my first month off of BC, do you think that it is just taking my body a while to get used to going off BC? I was always a strict 28 day cycle before I was on BC, but I have been on BC for nine years so who knows maybe I don't even have my cycle right.

How long should I wait before calling my doctor if I don't get AF, 1 or 2 weeks?

Thanks so much

I know how frustrating it is, waiting for AF to (not) show up. But since you just came off of bcp, it may be a bit before your body gets back to normal. Do you have any idea when/if you O'd? Fertility Friend says to test 18 days past ovulation. So give yourself a few more days, and test using FMU. Then if it's still neg., see what your dr. wants you to do. Wouldn't it be wild if you were pg right off the bat? I'm hoping that's what it is!

Hey there Jenna! I know what you mean about AF being late.. Mine was supposed to start yesterday, didn't so I took a HPT and it came out NEGATIVE.. I have no signs of her coming on her way..

It is very possible in your case, that it will take your body a couple of months to adjust not being on the bcp..

I don't know if this makes you feel any better, but my friend was off of the BC pill and then two weeks later she got pregnant and is actually 1 1/2 weeks overdue.. Don't give up hun!

Keep Us Posted!!

I am the same way! My AF is two-three days late and I tested...BFN!! I have been feeling very tired and hungry for weeks and my breasts have been tender for a while (2 weeks) that is VERY uncommon for me...but a few days ago I started cramping so I guess AF is on her way. I am 20 and have NEVER used birth control so I wonder what is GOING ON!?!?

Hi girls,

Thanks for your responses. I am just depressed. All of my friends have gotten pregnat so easily. I have been to 7 baby showers this year. I'm having a pitty party for myself right now!!

Anyway I calcualted that I O'd on the 3rd or the 4th. i don't chart or anything so who knows if I really did. I pretty much never have noticible CM so I can't really go by that either. I guess I am not intuned to my body enough.

Thanks for your advice. I hope it happens soon for all of you.

Jenna
