And no AF I am getting frustrated with my body.  My hcg numbers never got higher than 127 and they have been at 0 for 30 days.  I have taken 2  HPT's both were negative I just don't know why its taking so long. 

 

Did anyone else have a similar experience?

{{{HUGS}}} I'm sorry it's taking so long.  Maybe you're an "ovulate first, then AF" kinda gal...which would add a couple of weeks in before you saw AF.  I hope she shows soon.  Hey, I'll gladly give you mine, which is due to arrive right smack dab in the middle of my camping trip.  I'll be MORE than happy to share!

It could just be that your body is still trying to recover from the metho and work itself out. I would give it a little mmore time, like Sue said you might need that O first before AF arrives!

After the metho it can take time for the hcg to get to zero-- then after that it may take 2-4 weeks for your body to ovulate and then AF will show 2 weeks after that.

And sometimes it takes a little bit for the body to get back into the groove after having a loss :( If AF doesn't show in the next two weeks you could call your doctor and see if they'll do anything to help kick start things.

I called the OBGYN department and spoke to the advice nurse. He said my cycle should have came back by now if I am healthy. I have never had any problems with my cycle except for when I tried to quit BC in the middle of my cycle (bad idea) but my next cycle after that one was normal. I have an appt this week so maybe he can give me something to start my cycle.

Since my EP I have noticed weight gain, with dieting and exercising the scale just stays the same. I have also notice unwanted hairs everywhere. I am kind of concerned about thyroid problems or PCOS. I am a hypochondriac I'm always self diagnosing.

The nurse put in a pregnancy test for me. I told him that I was not trying to get pregnant and he says "Ma'am fifty percent of all pregnancies are unplanned". I wanted to tell him" that sort of thing has never happened to me, I am not a fortunate as other women."

It seems like all of my family members and friends have surprise pregnancies. Most of the time they are not too happy about being pregnant. I would be ecstatic if I had a surprise. Hopefully Af comes soon, I took a HPT 2 weeks ago and it was negative. I really don't think I am pregnant, I have been having weird symptoms though. I have been really gassy, I have cramps in my lower abdomen, I have twinges or a pulling sensation on both sides and my breast have a weird sensation. They are not sore they just feel weird. I figured that all of these symptoms are just coming from my body trying to regulate itself.  

Thanks for your responses
