Feel free to laugh, make fun or me or tell me I'm being an idiot. Last cycle the perinatologist recommended that I go back on the pill for one cycle and see if that would help regulate my long cycles. I decided that yes, I would go back on the pill.
Well, the time for me to start the pill has come and gone and I didn't start it!!! AF showed up on 28 September giving me a 33 day cycle. I kinda chickened out about starting the pill because I felt that 33 days was actually pretty "normal" cycle length. The birth control pills are sitting on my counter mocking me everyday but I just didn't feel like taking them.
So, whether right or wrong, we are IN for this cycle. I'm just following my heart over here....there is no more reason...haha.

I am not going to laugh at you but I will cheer with you! You had such a hard time with that decision and I think a 33 day cycles is not that abnormal. Here's hoping this is your cycle!! Either way you have made the best decision for you at this time - no matter what happens.

Gut feeling is the way to go. Something or someone is trying to guide you in the right direction. GL for this cycle..... keep us posted.

No way would I laugh or any of those things you said... GIIIIIRL, go with your gut! So many people don't hear that little inner "feeling," not to mention it's not going to hurt you and it's a choice not mandatory! So I say "do what cha like" like Digital Underground  LOL!

I don't think you are being silly at all! A 33 day cycle sounds pretty normal to me. Go with your gut and best of luck!

A 33 day cycle is well within the limits of a normal cycle. Good luck!

Since I had my son, I have become a rebel when it comes to Doc advice. Being an advocate for your child, you become one for yourself. If it feels right to you, do it. If not, follow your gut. KUP, we hope it's your cycle!!

I just had a 30 day cycle...mine are usually 30-31 days since I got off the pill and that is perfectly normal for me, so I don't think 33 is terribly long. I don't think I would've taken them either. Good luck! I really hope this is it for you.
