Babies on the Brain

If AF had a face, I would punch it...

Today marks day 66 since the start of my last period. Am I pregnant? Of course not. That would be too easy. 4 HPT tests in the last month have told me so, with the most recent being this morning. Am I bummed that I'm not pregnant? Yes, but I think I'm doing pretty good. My DH and I haven't been trying for long, and I know it can take a while. But boy is it annoying!!! At least when I get AF I KNOW that I'm not pregnant... but without it my mind constantly thinks "What if...??" I just wish AF would get her act together and show up when she's expected.

I'm sure you'll all notice my ticker and wonder why I bother with it all right now. The first 3 months off the pill I had 33 day cycles. I've kept the ticker going because it's easier to keep track of how long AF has been MIA. I don't chart, and I know some of you will tell me I should, and you're probably right. That way at least I'll know when/if I'm ovulating for sure. I know very little about charting. I do, however, know a few women who chart(ed) and drive their DH's batty with it. I don't want to make this experience a job, but I know that would be very likely for me to do.

For something that's so natural, getting pregnant sure isn't a walk through the park...

  • Thanks! I have just recently been seeing posts about Provera, and that it's recommended to see your doctor after 60 days. I just wasn't sure if it was 60 days after AF, or 60 days late. Thank you for clearing that up! If AF doesn't show this week, I'll be

  • I second the advice to call your doctor. They can make sure everything is okay and give you a prescription to start AF if necessary.

    Otherwise, I really encourage you to try charting. Some people do freak out about it and let it rule their lives
