It has been 42 days since my last period, I am not exactly what you would call regular but certainly never ever this long. I have done 2 tests and both are BFN. Any ideas, the first test I did was last Friday and I did another yesterday. Should I leave and try again or go to the doctors. Is there anyone else in this situation.

Have you had late periods before?

No not like this, maximum would be 35 days, I keep thinking AF is coming but nothing.

And how long have you been trying to conceive?

this is only the first month, but have not been on the pill since my son was born and he is twenty months. I am worried in case there is something wrong with me.

Don't panic - its only your first month and you're probably stressing yourself out! Thats probably why your period is late. I went nine months without a period once - and it wasn't because I was pregnant! How long did it take you to conceive your son?

about 4 months but i had come off the pill so my periods needed to settle down a bit. I am sure AF will come when its ready. How long have you been ttc?

I'm not at the moment but it took me nearly 5 years to conceive my daughter, but I have polycystic ovaries. You need to give yourself a few months of trying and keep track of your periods. If nothing happens then, ask your doctor about it and he/she'll probably take some blood to check your hormone levels... Its early days yet! I bet AF will have appeared by tomorrow!

Thanks for your advise, I feel better about things now. I will just see what happens and keep on trying.
