Pregnant or not

Went off the pill months ago after 14 years on. Fourth month finally felt myself ovulate on right side on day 18 of 28-day cycle. That was my first normal cycle.

Didn't feel myself ovulate this month. Now am on day 32. No sign of AF coming. I have had some stabbing pain in the area of my uterus and some mild cramping. Overall, I am just incredibly aware of my uterus and that whole area. I think my nipples are tender, but I may just be projecting. Low back pain, but that's nothing new because I am on a new bed (vacation) and have a bad disk. No nausea or sensitivity to smells. Feel constipated, but that could be lack of vegtables yesterday. Parched, yes, but I've been drinking a lot more water the last couple weeks. No gaseous feelings, at least no more than usual.

Took a HPT yesterday and it was negative. Damn. Did I maybe test too early? Or did I not really ovulate last month and the pill is still working out of my system and I'm still in for some quite long cycles?

I don't feel like I have anyone to turn to because my doctor friend is TTC with no luck and it would break her heart to hear my talk that maybe I am pregnant. I'm on vacation with my in-laws and hubby. I am going insane being around the 15-month old nephew and all the other children.

Any words of wisdom would be appreciated. Thanks for being here everyone!

Your doctor friend won't be mad at you. I promise!

If I had to guess I would say your are still a little irregular,but wait a couple of days(easier said than done) and try again. if still no bfp or af then go see your dictir.

Good luck to you and I hope you get what you want!
