Hi. Have been lurking on these boards for a while. Please help and advise

Off BCP since June/July and only charted BBT/CM last month.. my first cycle I've ever charted! All of sudden I am 6 days late.. my cycles have been usually short 27 days. My temperatures have remained high but not as high as they show in sample pregnancy charts ~ hovering between 98.1 and 97.5. Used the ept HPT test when I was 3 days late and it came back with a super faint, barely visible pink line well after the 3 minutes. I've been pretty stressed -- in the middle of a reorg and job change(luckily I do still have a job!). My sister said that my cycles are still regulating themselves as I've only been off BCP for 3-4 months.

any advice or insights.. at this point I am planning to test again in another 4-6 days.

Well if you had a faint line 3 days ago - I would go ahead and re-test now. I bet it will be an obvious positive now. Especially with an EPT brand HPT - they require a higher level of the HCG to show even a faint line.

So - here's wishing a happy and healthy nine months!!!!

Post back and let us know!!!
