When to see doctor?

I had a baby in October via C section and at the same time I had my tubes tied.

My period came back in January and has been pretty normal since then - my cycle is about 28-33 days.

I'm on day 43 of my cycle with my last period being on the 28th February 23.

DH and I have regular sex and I know there's a million reasons why a period could be late (it's never happened to me before) but when should I see a doctor? I'm worried about pregnancy/ possible ectopic pregnancy but I appreciate this is quite unlikely due to my tubes being tied.

I think I'm stressing out, should I see a doctor or just hope Aunt Flo shows up pretty soon?

Have you taken a pregnancy test? That would be the first thing to do

Not yet I'm waiting for the "two week wait" as I don't want to take it too early think I'm not pregnant and leave it longer than I should.

I think I've got it in my head that because I was sterilised in October there's no way I can be pregnant but I know there's a slim chance I might be.

I'll wait until the end of the week and if my period doesn't come I'll take a test and then contact the doctors

Not pregnant. The mystery continues .. I am getting a smear and the injection (to stop periods) at the end of the month. I'll ask then.
