so I had a baby sept 2008 and got my period back when my son was 10 months old. it took awhile to get back on track, but recently got back to my 21 day cycle (I have been marking it down and the other women in my family get 21 day cycles when not on birth control) I have been very stressed lately, my sons father commited suicide in may, I moved july first, I have no job and I'm running out of money to support myself and my child. it is very stressful. I got my period on the 4th and 25th of july, and was supposed to get it on the 15th of august. it is now the 20th so I'm 5 or 6 days late? not sure how your supposed to count it. I have a horrible feeling in the pit of my stomache, and I took a HPT 2 days ago that came out negative. I have an appointment with my GP next week so I can talk to her and she can do another test, but it would give me piece of mind to get an answer here...

I've been having sex on a weekly or bi-weekly basis strictly using condoms

Thank you for your reply suesan,
I did get my period today while I was out, but will still talk to my doctor when I see her next week. when I got pregnant the first time I didn't think I was indeed pregnant because I was spotting when I should've gotten my period so I didn't think much of it.
