I'd like to stay CF ... BUT ... *update*
I'm really scared ... I'm 2 weeks late!!!  
DH and I are pretty heart set on staying CF, at least for a long time. We want to enjoy married life, maybe travel, we basically want to live our lives for US (I know, so selfish of us!)
I'm on BC, and he almost always withdraws prior to 'finishing'. We haven't exactly  like animals lately. In fact, I've been complaining that we haven't been doing it enough (I can count on 1 hand how many times this year) - but things have been pretty hectic. We've had the month from hell, between issues with our mothers and DH's health in question altogether, and of course, the financial worries seem to only get worse by the month.
I took two HPTs last week, and they both came up Negative - but I was reading a bunch of message boards where people have had numerous negatives and found out later on that they were in fact preggo!
Am I just being crazy??
eta: Some of you may have seen my thread a few weeks ago (in diet and fitness) about having trouble losing weight - I've been following WW, and I've been taking a kickboxing class. Just thought I should add this in so details aren't really missing.
update - I took another test, and it was negative ... My dr appointment is this Monday, and Aunt Flow 'should' be coming back next week - So the moment of truth is finally close! Wish me luck!

Re: I'd like to stay CF ... BUT ...
Ask your Dr for a blood test. Thats the only way to know for sure. Stress could be making you late. Unless you missed pills or took other meds that cause BCP to fail its probably more likely that you arent pregnant...
good luck!

No other meds ... If I ever miss a pill, I not only make sure to double up the next day, but I stay far away from DH that whole week, lol!
I made a dr appt for Monday.

I'm not sure this is any worse than previous stressful times in my life, to be messing me up this much, you know? I think that's why I'm freaking out so bad. Had I never read the other message boards, I probably would have just waited until next month to start over analyzing things.
I kinda wish DH would get a vasectomy too, if anything, it could be reversed in the unlikely event we change our minds, right? haha

Re: I'd like to stay CF ... BUT ...
If you are on bcp and are taking it at the same time every day it's 99.99 % effective. On top of that, your DH withdraws alot of times which adds even more protection. The chances of being pg are very very very slim IMO. I would go to the doc just to be sure but I wouldn't be worried about being pg. It could be stress related like the others said.

Re: I'd like to stay CF ... BUT ...
How long has it been since you ?
Positive results won't usually show up until about 10-12 days later. 2 weeks later, they would definitely be positive if you are pregnant.

And if the last time was over 2 weeks ago it should definitely show up by now if you were pregnant, also you seem to have your bases covered as far as protection... I think you're ok.
Good luck!!!

Re: I'd like to stay CF ... BUT ...
At this point it is very rare that you would not have gotten a positive hpt by now.
And I guess I am a bit jaded, but dh and I have been unprotected and perfectly timed with my ovulation for 18 months and I have had sperm shot my whooha by a dr and I'm still not knocked up.
While it is true that " it only takes one time" , it sounds like you should be ok. You will feel much better after the dr confirms tomorrow.

Nothing yet, actually. I went to a general dr because I was overdue for a physical, and I thought I could skip the copay this way. Well my dr told me that adding a preg test to my bloodwork would not be covered bc she is not an OB. My OB couldn't fit me in until march 12.
Nothing like being in limbo a little longer! Lol

I know I am totally crashing. 
Having TTC twice, in my experience, you would have definitely had a positive by now. When I was TTC, I realized just how crazy my cycles were. Some months 28 days, some 50!  This could be the case with you.

Thats ridiculous... call your OB ask for a prescription for a beta hcg and go to one of their labs and have it done.

Crashing but wanted to say congrats because my AF was over 2 weeks late and just showed up on Saturday. THANK THE LORD!
So I totally feel your pain...it was a rough 2 weeks for me and I can't tell you how many tests I took.
We have one DD and want to keep it that way!
So I know how you felt!
Glad it all worked out!
