Hi everyone! My name is Jen and I am new to posting on this forum however I have been lurking for quite a few months. 
I just stopped receiving the Depo Provera shot at the end of January because my husband and I want to have a child soon. I was told by my employer that my disability insurance doesn't kick in for pregnancy until August 15th so we are being careful until then. However, my dilemma is that my AF has not returned due to what I am assuming is the Depo. A little history...I came off of Depo a few years ago and switched to pill form of birth control and AF returned within three months or so. However this time, I do not want any hormones in my system so I am somewhat patiently waiting. But I am getting anxious and a little nervous because I want to make sure everything is good with my body. I have been having some crazy symptoms such as headaches, achiness, crampy feeling and my breasts have grown almost a full cup size which I am attributing to the loss of the Depo in my system. However, I still have taken two pregnancy tests which have been negative due to the symptoms. My doctor told me that it could take almost a year after the Depo to conceive so I don't want to make an appointment sounding like some crazy anxious patient unless I think something is wrong. I guess I just wanted to vent and find some support here with you guys. I read this forum a lot and think everyone on here is so wonderful and supportive with each other.
By the way, I am a huge Cathe fan also and have a horrible addiction to ordering her workouts!
