Question about periods. help? [= 10pts best answer! Thanks?

Question

In Feb'07 my gyn put me on bc pills to regulate my periods. Jan'08 I stopped the pills and my period started Feb'08 my follicular phase was 14 days and my luteal phase was 18, so I had a 32 day cycle and continued to. Then my April cycle I got pregnant I had a miscarriage in June. My next cycle returned as scheduled on July 13(I'm still in this cycle) My follicular phase was around 17 days and I now am in luteal phase day 14 so tomorrow would be cycle day 32 like it always was but I have read that your luteal phase does not change, does this apply even after miscarriages and child birth since they also say these 2 things can change your cycle? A 14 day luteal phase is what they consider normal but I had always had around a 20 day.

So my question is can I still expect my period in the next few days since it would be in the time frame of 32 day cycle even though it wouldn't not be a 20 day luteal phase? I am TTC and I am hoping this month we have gotten pregnant.

I am not feeling any signs of my period coming! lately I have been feeling:

-exhausted-more hungry-headaches-irritable-achy.

I took a pregnancy test 2 days ago 12 DPO which was to early? I noticed that I have been having increased CM also.

So, yeah, should I expect my period through my 32 day cycle or throung a 20 day luteal phase?

Please please try to help!!

Thanks.

Oh and to be sure every one knows what things mean:

Follicular phase-1st day of your period untill when you ovulate.

Luteal phase-time you ovulate till your next period

DPO- days past ovulation kinda the same thing as luteal phase

Answer 1

that ? can go both ways, you should definitely expect a period but at the same time if you were sexing it up on the few days b4 and after your ovulation time then you could have a definite chance of conception. if you can, try to hang on to see what AF is doing and if she is asleep then test and good luck.

Answer 2

If people don't know what follicular phase, luteal phase, and dpo means, then they are SO not qualified to answer your question!  I would say anything is possible.  I know after having my son my cycles have been radically different!  I never knew about charting before hand, so I have no idea what my luteal phase was like, but before my baby I was having ovulatory bleeding (another thing I didn't know about and that is why it took me eight years to have a baby) and now I don't.  All you can really do is keep testing, charting and act like you are pregnant (as far as no drinking, no tobacco, no caffeine.....).  Good luck and baby dust!
