Is this normal?
Hello! I'm newly married (10/19) and DH and I are TTC! I'm 31 and he's 33. I've been on the pill since I was 19 and I am off now. I got my last cycle which started on my wedding day (SUPER bummer!), and according to the 28 day cycle, I was supposed to have my cycle again Saturday. It's Tuesday now, and no signs. I took at test Saturday, came back negative. But, could I be pregnant already? Or is a late cycle normal after going off the pill? Thank you for your help! This is all new to me!
Re: Is this normal?
By the way, I read your post as you were 31 and your H was 19. Lol.
FET - transferred two embryos (boy and girl) - Nov 2014 - BFP!
Without charting or using OPKs, you really don't know when you ovulated, making it difficult to know when to expect your period. Once you think you're "late", the general rule of thumb is to test once a week until you either get a positive test, your period, or reach 60 days without a period (then call your doctor).
dx: Unexplained IF (mild MFI)
TTC since May 2011, 1 year trying, and then 3 TI, 2 IUI = BFN
IVF #1 (May 2013): Antagonist Protocol:24R, 18M, 15F w/ICSI; 5dt of 2 early blasts, no frosties = BFN
IVF #2 (August 2013): Lupron Stop Protocol:
28R, 23M, 15F w/ICSI; 5dt of 1 partially hatched blast, 7 frosties = BFP
EDD 5/23/14, blighted ovum (6w6d), D&C (8w6d)
FET #1 (April 2014): transferred 2 5d blasts = BFP

If this is your first cycle after stopping BCPs, you can't guarantee it's going to be 28 days (mine pretty much never has been 28 days except while using BC).
Sure, it's possible get pregnant right away. But without my ute goggles, I can't tell you what your chances are of being pregnant already.
Keep testing every week as long as AF doesn't show. Then start charting your cycles so you can really know when AF is actually late (which you can't know unless you know when you ovulated, which can vary for many women).
