5 Days and counting....Still no AF

Well...you guessed it....I am 5 days late! I still haven't started AF. I have no real signs of doing so either. I do however have sore/tender breasts, lowe back cramping, FATIGUE!, Insomnia(sometimes), headaches....nausea, and I have been being a severe b!tch lmao....which is usually my tell tale sign. I took a First Response 4 days ago with a BFN...and then took one the next morning with FMU and still BFN. I am usually always regular, even after having a baby, my AF always makes her arrival on time.

What do I do?

Gotcha.. I knew as soon as you reminded me that hubby had a vasectomy..

Hmm. Did he ever go back to make sure it was "successful" I mean clearly it wasn't (Conner!!) But I mean did he ever re-visit his Dr. about that? Hmm. I dont know what to say. Keep us posted and good luck! Are you wanting to be pregnant?

Because hubby had a vesectomy last january, BUT we got pregnant with Conner after his vesectomy.

lacy5- Im not breastfeeding, I wasn't able to.

I called the doc, and the nurse is going to see what he wants to do. Im sure he will have me come in for a Pap and a test.

Maybe,

Or maybe he will just say to give it  time to regulate. It is soo hard to gauge right after a birth. Wow, Conner is over 2 months old already!! Time flies!  I am happy to hear he is sleeping  through the night for you!

Keep us posted. How come you arent on BC?

I haven't called my Doctor yet, I think I will after I type this up. Conner is 2 months 1 week and 3 days old, I have had 1 AF Nov 18th. Hubby and I have BD several times, we did the pull and pray method but he forgot to atleast once.

I have no idea whats going on. My diet hasn't changed. Im getting more sleep now that Conner sleeps through the night. Im not on any different meds or vitamins that could effect AF.

I guess I will call the office and see what they think. Maybe he will suggest I come in for a pregnancy test.

I think you have to just wait it out.. =(

After each pregnancy, your AF's will be different.. It's possible your body just hasn't re-regulated yet back to any "normalcy!?"

Did you call your Dr.? I would probably just call and ask what they think if you haven't already done so.. How old is the baby now? And how many "AF's" have you had since birth? I know, I have a million questions, and I just can't remember ANYTHING these days! Ugh!
