Advice please, no period! First time TTC

Hey gals. Need some help.

First of all sorry if I sound so stupid, it's our first time TTC.

So...I came off the pill in October last year, it was only roughly 30days ago I had a withdrawal bleed.

I think it was a withdrawal as I had zero cramp and I do suffer from bad periods even on the pill. It lasted a week and it was light.

I then assumed that was the start of my cycle which would mean I am now 19dpo.

My period was due at the weekend, it's not arrived. The last couple of weeks I've felt so crap. So many different symptoms. So different and I'm very in tune with my body!

What the hell is happening!? I've taken numerous tests and all big FAT negative! It's getting me down so much!

Do I have to wait until I take a proper period or why would I have bled for exactly one week? Ahhh it's so annoying I don't really have anyone I can talk to as we don't want anyone to know we are ttc. 😭

It just seems to take so long for some of us to get back to normal after the pill - if I'd have known I'd never have stayed on it for 11 years! It's so rubbish isn't it.
I came off in September, had my withdrawal bleed as normal the week after then nothing for about 6 and a half weeks then had a proper period. That was early November then didn't have another one until 2 and a half weeks ago... no idea where I'm at or what's going on either, I'd hoped that by 5 months off the pill I'd have been pregnant already Sad fingers crossed for us both x

I would be tempted to go to the docs. I've told DH I'll go if I have another 60 day cycle this time 😞 I ended up telling my mam we're TTC - didn't want anyone to know but it actually helped talking about it I think although she's sworn to secrecy ha! She helped me think a bit more rationally about it at least. DH is as supportive as he can be but don't think he fully understands the wonders of the menstrual cycle 😂
