Late Period

I am still nursing my 14 month old son and Got my period back full force when he was 11 months.. and that was it.. I haven't had it since. I took a test.. well two.. the first one didn't work either.. GRRRR.. dumb test.... and it came out negative.. but I can't help but to wonder.. we've been careful... I thought I would just sympathize with you!!!!

ALSO KUDOS to you and still nursing.. It is sooo good for your baby!!! Keep up the good mommy work!! :)

My period was like clockwork until my last pregnancy. I'm sure it's because I'm still nursing, but my cycle is still all messed up!

I would diffinitly have your hub check and you should take a PT. My mom and dad were both fixed and found out at the ripe age of 44 that they were expecting another child. They just about died because both of them had thought the problem would NEVER come up again but back them when they were fixing people it was not 100%. But that doesnt mean that they are 100% effective today either. And the first thing I look for when I am late and think I may start but then never do is the fact that I am probably prego. which is what has happened now twice where i was late should have started and never did. Good luck and I hope things turn I your favor if you arent really expecting another.

Have you taken a pregnancy test? And if you are worried honey, go to the doctor.

Nursing moms can and do get pregnant. Vasectomies are not 100% until checked out, all depends on the procedure that was used. You could always go to the drug or grocery store and get a pregnancy test and but some of your fears to rest. Stress can influence your periods, and with the house full of little kids, you have a full plate. If your period continues to be absent, then go see your ob-gyn. They are better equipt to find out what's causing the delay and help you get through your day.

take a pregnancy test! I also have always had a period every 28days and got a surprise with our third when i had a spot of blood for one day and that was it. our second was 11months and still nursing. just remember nursing is NOT birth control.

I never had a period until I was completley done breastfeeding. I nursed for 14 months. Then it came back within 28 days of stopping. But, I'd take a pregnancy test if you are worried.

He really should have gone back in to get checked. Someone I know went back and got checked and it didn't take.

since you're still nursing, i wouldn't worry about it either. your hormones will fluctuate as long as you're nursing. but if you are sure you don't want another baby, i'd really encourage your husband to go get checked!

I don't mean to scare you, but I am a 33-year-old female with an 11-year-old little brother... and he was a post-vasectomy baby from my father who never got his vasectomy checked! We are thrilled and love him (obviously), but it was challenging health-wise for my mom who was 42 at the time (she ended up having cysts on her ovaries during the pregnancy and had to have surgery to remove her them while 12 weeks pregnant... her water broke almost resulting in a miscarriage, but the sac resealed... she was on bedrest the remainder of her pregnancy). He was conceived about 10 months after the vasectomy.

I also do medical transcription and one of the doctors we do work for is an urologist. The biggest thing he stresses in his post vasectomy reports is the need for followup!

You might as well just take a pregnancy test because if it is negative, you will not have the stress of your worry affecting your body, which along with the hormones from nursing, can also affect your period.

Having said all that, if you end up pregnant, let me just point out that my brother has been such a blessing, even though he was a surprise and the pregnancy was a very hard one! I have never met a woman who found herself unexpectedly pregnant regretful of that pregnancy after she sees her baby! It sounds like you have a great husband, wonderful kids, and with their support can handle anything!

Good luck!

I am not sure, you might want to get check out by your doctor. But I have known 3 woman to get pregnant even after the husband had a visectomy.

Good luck!

Go buy a PG test girlfriend! If you didn't do the test w/the vasectomy, you could definintely be preggers.

Good luck!
