Menstrual cycle disruption

I'm worried. I'm late by a week and have tested negative for pregnancy 3 times. The only thing I can think of is that I got my second jab last month as I'm normally very regular.

Pregnancy would be the worst thing for me right now. I'm not on contraception as I know my cycle pretty well so obviously we DTD after I 'ovulated'. I'm now worried that I ovulated late due to all of this.

I don't want another baby yet. DS is only just turning 7 months and I can't go through another abortion. I'm really in my head worrying.

After my first jab I was 2 weeks late and after my second I skipped the next period completely, although my kids are much older. Are your periods that regular so soon after having a baby? I'd try not to worry, 3 negative tests is a good sign

Mine changed after my first jab (breakthrough bleed every other) but I had my booster 3w ago and had a period pretty much ever since.
There's a lot of anecdotal evidence that periods change post-vaccine.

And I'd agree - 3 negative tests is a good sign.

Over the last few months there have been a few threads on here about this. I also missed a period then had 2 very light periods (which is very unusual for me) in the months following my vaccine. It was the Pfizer I had. I was also doing pregnancy tests!
