Hi,

This is my first time posting after reading and reading and reading for a while now! Anyways here is my story. I went off BC last April and went right on to have regular periods alternating each month from 29 days to 33 days like clock work. My husband didn't want to start ttc right away so we were using the pull out method (yes I'm aware it's not full proof). Fast forward to October 10. Period came as normal and was my 29 day cycle time, but then nov 5 my husband decides he's ready and goes inside me. I thought nothing of it as I expected I ovulated before then as my period was due in 8 days. Well November 12 came around and no AF and usually it comes at the same time each day. I just had a feeling I was pregnant as I was super tired and very stuffy in the morning with very sore breasts that I never have. Took a test Friday night and it was negative. Took another Saturday and Sunday with FMU and both were faint positives with Sunday's being darker then Saturday. I was scared excited happy and nervous all at the same time but mostly excited! However then on Tuesday I took another and it was negative then sure enough I bled 4 hours later with a period that was nothing like my usual that lasted much longer with worse cramps. I never went to the dr but am sure I had a chemical after talking with my nurse friend and researching. I was very sad. My concern though is that this happened because I ovulated late and there fore have a short LP, what do you think? As we are now ttc and I am new to this I thought Maybe I'd find some insight from someone here. No one really understands how I'm feeling.
 
First of all it sounds like you had a chemical, secondly I am so sorry for your loss. You said you have a 29 day cycle but do you track O or just speculate it? I know it can take awhile for the body to regulate after BC so your O date might be off.
 
Thank you for responding. I have not been tracking my ovulation but now I am using opt for the first time which is kind of making me obsessed. I'm just trying to figure out why this happened and what I can possibly do to prevent it again. Since we weren't really trying it was such a shock and all happened so quickly and it really rocked my world. I know temping is much better but I just couldn't stand the thought of it when it all happened so maybe next month. I'm thinking since we bd'd on nov 5 without pulling out that's when it happened and since my AF was due on the 12th it just wasn't enough time, could that be? Thanks again
