Me and my partner have been trying for a baby since I came off my pill the end of August 16. My last period was 25th November, I'm always on time and it's always like clockwork.
My period was over 2 weeks late this week. Then I started bleeding Monday like my normal period but only for a day and a half.
Then nothing for a 2 days and I've just gone to the toilet and wiped and there's light brown my blood?
I've had all the symptoms of pregnancy- back ache, head ache, sore boobs, stomach cramps and feeling sickly in the afternoons?
Has anyone experienced this before?

Have you taken a hpt?

I echo the same. Have you had a positive pregnancy test? If not then I would think you are having irregular AF still after finishing your pill. This is very normal and I wouldn't worry.

Took a HPT on Monday and it was negative, since coming off my pill in August my periods just went back to normal up until November when it was late by 2 weeks?

It can happen unfortunately. Your cycles can be irregular for 6-12 months after hormonal contraceptives. I personally would not test again unless you make it to CD35+ as that's within the normal range. X

I stopped taking the pill on August 24th so a similar time. I only had two periods before I fell pregnant but they were not regular at all. I guessed when I was due and when my period didn't come I took a test which came as negative. I still didn't get my period a week later so I took another test and that was positive.
Maybe try another test in a few days?
