Aunt Flo is late. By three days. Now I know that’s not much cause for concern, but it’s a big deal to me. My body is a ticking clock, always on time. I always know the exact date Aunt Flo comes, without fail. So when April 11th comes and goes with no visit, I start to get paranoid.
The home pregnancy test I took came back negative. I was relieved, but was still unsure. Lots of internet research led me to believe that it’s still possible to be pregnant. So I went to Planned Parenthood just to be sure. That test came back negative.
Honestly, I’m not sure whether to be relieved or disappointed. Rob and I have talked about kids and we both decided to enjoy our marriage without kids for a while. I know it’s silly to be sad over something that was never there, but for a while…I just thought being a mother would be nice.
Anyway, I’m not pregnant as far as I know. Don’t know why Aunt Flo is late, but I guess I’ll just enjoy the days without her. She’s a pain in the ass anyway.

I can understand being sad. While you are scared to death, there is just this hope that thrives in you. Hope it happens for you and when the time is perfect.
I used to be pretty regular until I got close to being done with school. The stress really changed everything.
I hope it’s okay though and that everything will work out.
I can certainly understand the feeling of being sad even though ideally, you’d like to wait. I’m usually really regular too but sometimes it is just late, for whatever reason. Often times, the reason is stress.
It could be stress? Well it might be disappointing, but.. you could still be a mother some time in the future?
Last month I was two whole weeks late. I wasn’t having a pregnancy scare but I was wondering where it was at. I hate being paranoid that it was going to start flowing when I wasn’t prepared for it.
