I have a question: My period comes every 30 to 35 days or even later to a month pass over due and I don't know if I still can get pregnant, is this normal?

Yes, you can still get pregnant. You usually ovulate around 14 days before your period starts, so your most fertile day if you have a 35 day cycle is around day 21. There is a good book called "Fertility, Cycles, and Nutrition" by Marilyn Shannon that talks about why your cycle might be irregular. You can also find lots of info. about this on the web.

Good luck!!

My periods are also pretty far apart,any where from 30 to 45 days. I went to the Dr. about 3 1/2 months ago and they did some blood work to make sure I was still ovulating. Everything turned out normal. It's really frustrating when your trying to conceive and you don't know when or if your period is going to show up. I'm on CD 38 now and still no signs. Also I have heard of some women that ovulate late. Hope any of this helped. Good luck in TTC. You can e-mail me if you need any more support, We're here for eachother.

My periods have been very irregular ever since I started having them. They went anywhere from 26 to 45 days.... I never knew when I was ovulating or anything. Almost every month I just "knew" I was pregnant, whether I wanted to be or not... but I never was, until this past May. My husband and I didn't have the patients or the time to try month after month, he is in the service and was leaving very soon after our wedding, like 2 weeks after our wedding. We BDed almost every day during his leave time, before he left. I know that sounds funny, but I think we only misssed 2 or 3 days out of the whole month that he was home. And by the time I was at day 36 he thought I should take a test, even though I didn't want to and be disappointed. But we took it anyways, and got an HTP! We got lucky, but it is definitely possible to get pregnant if you havve irregular cycles. Good luck to everyone on this site, I read the entries on here everyday that I was late trying to figure out if I was or not, but I had no signs at all of being prego, other than no AF. I hope all of you lovely ladies get what you want and you're all in my prayers!!! Remember to think happy thoughts as much as you can. Take care, Sunshingurl
