Tubal Ligation,two months in a row missed periods.

okay I am new to all of this,but I am worried.I am 31 years old and had a tubal after my last child was born in 2004 I had a c-section so they went ahead and did the tubal.Well my last period was November 7,2009 and I haven't had one since...I have craming like a period but nothing no spotting or anything.I have been online tryind to figure this out I don't know if it's early menapause or hormones cysts what have you...I went to the ER this past Wednesday and they gave me a blood test but after being there for four hours another doctor came in and said that it came back negative and that I could go!! I have an app. with my regular gyn on Tuesday and i am affraid that if Im not pg then what is wrong with me.I never wanted a tubal but did it for my husband(we have 3 wonderful children together)so if I am I would be so,so HAPPY but I know my chances are not that good.Someone have any advice for me?!!

well the  chances are slim but they are there. as most on here know i  have had successful pregnancy  after tubal lig surgery. I had my  tubes tied in 06 after the birth of my  son (    Ihave three kids now)  i figured i  had my boy and i had my girl  so  i was all set. Well  a few years later i was no longer with their dad and i  begun  dating  this great guy ( my now DH )  we got engage and i had told him inthe beginning that  i couldnt have anymore kids  and he said that it was  cool  cause  he thinks of my two as his own. WEll  we were planning the  wedding which was set in 12-06-08 and we had just paid for  everything when in june i had  come  down with a horrible  cold ( mind u  we were worried about trying to prevent pregnancy from happening )  and i  just wasnt  feeling  good and i decided that i was  going to  run my blood work at the  lab for some normal  test because   I work in lab and that would be easy for me to  say ok if somethingwas  off  iwould go to the  doct. Well i  wasnt think and  i defualted the test so it  runs  every test  we  run on the that  machine  well HCG is one of them . I  said  what the heck i  already know that one is neg. BOY was i  in for a surprise, it came postive at 3362.  i called my  doct  right away  went next day and they did  u/s  and there she  was  all growing where she needed to be .  Well  we moved the  wedding  date up to 10/18/08 and  my lil peanut Mckenna was born on 02/11/09 she  will be turning one in  less than a month. so it  can happen  i would just test again and ask the doc what they think  good luck
