*Disclaimer* This post contains facts that could possibly be TMI!!
So I've been going through some things lately. I wasn't going to talk about it on here, but I figured I would feel better if I got it all off my chest. It's also the reason why I haven't been blogging much lately. As you know if you read my blog, Brad and I are going to be trying for a baby in late April, you know-the Baby Making Trip to Vegas! So in preparation for that, I've gotten off my birth control pills so they will be completely out of my system when it comes time, taking plenty of vitamins, calcium, folic acid, etc. AF was set to arrive on March 5th, but didn't. I thought at that point that I might be pregnant because AF is normally right on time BUT that's because I was on the pill. The reason I got on the pill in the first place was because AF was irregular. But I took a test anyway on the 6th. BFN. I tested again on the 8th. BFN. Tuesday, the 10th, I was getting a little concerned so I called my doctor. He said that I needed to wait a week and test again. So I tested Saturday, the 15th=BFN. So I am now waiting on my doctor to call me back to tell me what to do next.
I've been reading a lot on the internet and it says that with some people, it takes 6-12 months to get AF back after stopping with the pill. If that's the case, will I even ovulate until it comes back?? You can't make a baby if you're not ovulating! The second scenario I've read about is that some women don't make enough of the hormone detected in home pregnancy tests for it to show up positive. So I could be 5 1/2 weeks pregnant. I really hope that's what's going on instead of the previous scenario. I hope my doctor lets me come take a blood test today. I would feel so much better if I just knew what was wrong. I knew it was going to be difficult for us to get pregnant. I just knew it. Please pray that there is nothing seriously wrong and that if we are not already pregnant, that we can get pregnant without too many issues. I've read too many infertility blogs and know too much about that painful process. I'll update again after I talk to my doctor.
