Hi there. I think you need to check that you are ovulating. I know a number of people who, after coming off birth control, didn't ovulate on their own at all until intervention. How long is it since you went off it? I would check out what other women have found out about how long it takes for them to ovulate after it. Of course, you might have ovulated and be pregnant :) I would just go to the doctor and get some tests done if your period is more than a week later than you expected and you still get a BFN.

Thank you for your reply. Its been just about a month since removal. I know that's not long but i still feel hopeful. I would rather be pregnant but having a cycle wouldn't be so bad either. I think i may wait a week or two to test again. If i get bfn or no af, I'll go to the doctor. I hate waiting though. Since the doc said to test 2 weeks after removal, i was hopeful. She said i was soft and high. Obviously open due to the removal but idk if that counts. I want to start tracking cm but not sure if i should wait for af to do that. I'm excited to start trying but don't want to go nuts about symptoms. LOL my first pregnancy wasn't exactly...intentional on MY part. So i want to be excited about this one. I do love my son and don't regret having him but i want to want to have a baby. I've never been this excited.
