    So I've been wanting to write this post all morning.  I was supposed to get my period on Saturday morning so i'm three days late now.  I felt weird last week and took a pregnancy test on Thursday but it was negative.  So I figured I was just being dumb but when my period didn't show up Saturday, I started thinking maybe I took the test too soon.  Today when he gets off of work, my husband and I are going to go get another test (of course I used my last one on Thursday).  He wants to be there when I take it. 

    I feel like as soon as this posts, my period is going to show up and make this post completely void.  But I've felt some period-like cramps since Friday and some just stomach cramps and I'm freaking out so I needed to get this out.  While it wouldn't be terrible at all, we weren't trying.  I made a mistake counting the days that were safe to have sex on.  Part of me feels bad because I see so many bees trying for so long and not getting pregnant and now we weren't even trying and I may be pregnant.  I just want the day to hurry up and for us to get to the store to get the test.  

    I will also add that I went off birth control in early August after being on it for over five years, so maybe it's just that being messed up?  My first cycle off was 30 days, my second was 28.  

    Edit:  I will add that while we have a lot of debt, my husband is making enough money right now for us to pay bills, save money, pay for a baby if it's necessary, and allow me to stay home.  So it's not the worst time.  And we weren't trying for a baby but like I said, we both agreed that if it happens accidentally, it happens.  So it's not an irresponsible move although I still feel completely stupid for counting when I would ovulate wrong.

    Sorry this was so long by the way.  I tend to go on and on when I'm nervous. Smile

    First, please don't feel stupid.

    Sometimes you can do everything right to prevent it and still get pregnant. You can do everything right to ensure it happens and you don't get pregnant!

    Not knowing which way you stand right now I'll tell you after TTC the first time my period was DAYS late it turned out to be just that, late. The second time around it turned out to be a BFP!

    I've made myself wait days to take a HPT so I know how you feel! And then some!

    Do you have to wait for him? I would run to the nearest pharmacy and buy a digital test asap lol I cant stand suspense. My situation was similar to yours in that we werent trying either but a week after my missed period I knew I had to test and it was positive!!

    Aw, honey, I feel for you.  Not sure whether to wish you baby dust or not.  I hate it when my period is abnormal to the point of taking a pregnancy test - so hopeful, yet so anxious/worried/feeling-guilty-I'm-hopeful (I'm on birth control, but there's still that one percent chance...)  I wish you peace until you take your test.

    @bells: I want to run to the store, trust me.  But he said he wants to be there.  We'll see if I last.  I may end up going to get it before he gets home but he does get home at 3:30 so it's not too bad.

    @regberadaisy: My first one was a couple of days late but now it just seems like it's not going to come at all.

    @cyneswith: I feel like we'll probably be happy either way but I know we weren't trying which makes it a little more stressful.

    I don't think I'd be able to wait!  I hope you get the result you are both looking for.

    Don't feel guilty about it. Yes lots of us try but tons of babies were not planned. As a matter a fact it's probably how a lot of us got here. I wish you luck and hope it works out in whatever way you wish it :)

    Thanks everyone for your responses!  Like I said, I think either way, we'll be okay with it and happy.  I think if it's positive we'll freak out for a little bit but then be happy (and it'll make for an interesting Thanksgiving trip home).  Also, my husband keeps telling me it's fine if it's positive but he'd really appreciate it if it's a girl. Smile  He thought I was just being a spaz since I've done that before but yesterday when I told him I still had no period he just looked at me and was like "We'll get a test tomorrow."
