Let me give you a scenario

[jane6672]

Your cycle has always been very regular. You were on the pill for a couple of years, but recently switched to condoms.

Your first three periods off the pill were exactly four weeks apart (like, down to the time of day they started). Now you are going on three days overdue for your period.

When do you panic?

FWIW: I POAS last night and it was negative (I have an emergency stash of dollar store tests) but who the hell knows if its to soon to tell.

It would seem to me, that if you are late, it would show up as being pregnant.

Don't head to Babies-R-Us quite yet.

I would panic and POAS every day until it showed up. I have done this many times. DH always laughs and tells me I'm paranoid.

My first 4 cycles were regular (30 days each) and then got continually longer. I'm now at 45 day cycles and we are doing IUI.

I would keep testing until your period shows or you get a positive.

When I got off BC my first few cycles were very regular, then I had a few wonky ones. So I say don't panic yet.

Yep, me too. I think you've got a bit before you should start freaking out :-)

[alleycat]

No I would not panic. It took me a year off bc to get back to normal. One time I was two weeks late. I won't lie, I panicked.

IF I PEE ON MY KEYBOARD CAN YOU TELL ME IF I'M PREGNANT??? lol

thanks for the reassurance.

[coffeeismyfrienemy]

I would think if you were pg enough to miss a period you would be pg enough to get a positive test.

What coffee said.

Yea, I would do this, too. I'm sure you're ok, but it's also ok if you're worried, since MLers have been particularly fertile this month.
