I came off birth control in February to try to conceive. I did all the right things at the right time, and I have no sign of my period coming. I'm two days late so far, but I know that your cycle can change when you come off the pill. I took a test this morning and it was negative. Is it possible I could be pregnant but the hcg levels are too low? Can someone please share with me your experience of having negative tests before positive ones and how late you had to wait? Thanks!!

well, I got pregnant ON the pill ..
I had been on the pill 10 years, non-stop! and got an ear infection and they put me on an antibiotic which completely de-activated my birth control pill .. and I am now 24 weeks pregnant with a very healthy, very active baby boy!
so, since you are trying to get pregnant .. I'm sure it'll happen quick!
You should have gotten your period by now .. I even got "breakthrough bleeding" .. so NO blood is a good thing!
congrats! you've probably got a baby in there! :):):)
good luck! God bless!

Coming off the birth control pill causes alot of changes in your body, and it has taken some women a few months to get their cycles back to normal, to where they actually start ovulating again.
It could be that your body is still adjusting. And you wont get y our period until it is done adjusting (if it takes more then 6 months consult a doctor).
Or you could be lucky and pregnant on the first round! I know some women dont get postives until 9 days after their period was due, but that has been the longest I have ever heard.
The only sure test is to go to the doctors office and get blood drawn, they can tell you within two hours if your pregnant or not, way before a pregnancy test can detect the levels.

I will tell you that after being on the pill, my husband and I tried for a year and a half before getting pregnant. Now I have never been able to carry a baby to term....so I may not be the best judge, but I just thought I would let you know that it can take a while.

I got pregnant with our daughter while I was on the pill, then when we decided to have another I quit taking the pill trying for another baby and it took us over 4 months for me to get pregnant, and my period were messed up too, they never came at the same time.

With my 3rd child I was about 8 days late when the test
showed positive. Give it another week or so.
