Cramping after poss missed period

My husband and I trying to conceive.  I went off of the pill in Feb.  but didn't get my period at the end of the pack..which did happen sometimes.  I ovulated about 3 weeks later, and got my period 2 weeks later (March 21st)  I should've gotten my period on Mon. (April 18th)and haven't yet. I took a hpt on Thurs and it was neg.  Then yesterday (Fri) I had horrible cramping like nothing I've experienced before.  I still have the cramping today but not as bad.   I know I may just be getting my period late but was wondering if anyone had a similar situation whether you actually were pregnant or not.  Thanks!

I was on the pill for 4 years.. went off of it about a year before I wanted to try for a baby.  the following month that I got my period it was really bad.

They say that if you are on the pill and want to try for a baby you should wait for three months before trying.  I charted my periods for a year and then started trying.  I used a OPK and got pregnant right away.

Yes  coming off the pill can send your cycles in a uproar.
It has been regulated by the pill for years then you stop it... So your body, hormones are confused and anything is possible..
