f/u to When should I test?
Sorry I couldn't get back to you ladies yesterday. After I posted Alessandra got fussy and when I got her the bottle I realized I had left her formula at home! I had to drive back home from the office and with the rush I left my laptop at the office. Good thing I live 10 minutes away from the office and she was calm the whole way home. She's growing up so fast!
Buckswife-Last cycle seemed to be right on. BUT before I took birth control pills it was normal for me that with every cycle I was always around 5 days late. The only thing is that I would get menstrual cramps at least 3 days before my period. As of now I haven't had menstrual cramps this week, but then again, we go back to everything might change after the baby with my cycles. lol
Madame- I tested the 14 and the 19th.
Cole and Nola- I only BF for a month because I got sick with a cold and went to see a family doctor and he had no clue on what to give me that could be safe for the baby (I'm allergic to PCN). By the time I went with my OB he told me that those were safe for the baby, but by then it was hard to get the baby back to BF. This place needs more lactation consultants, I didn't even get to see one =(.
So, I guess I don't feel like testing. I'll keep waiting. I think I should get AF by next week for sure....... Right?
Re: f/u to When should I test?
Thanks for the background info haha
I would say if by next week you haven't then test but if it's negative I would assume it's negative. I remember once (now this is pre Ava and I'm sure you all remember) I went something like 48 days...But you could always call your OB and get a quick blood test done just to be sure.
