Period Issues

Heres yet another period question! I am just so confused and want to know if this has happened to anyone out there.
I have been very regular for almost 2 years now (after I stopped nursing my daughter). My best friend visited us from out of state and stayed with us for a week. I had just finished my period the week before she came out to see us, and she started hers while she was here. I got mine AGAIN before the month was over! So that was two full periods in one month. Weird. That was January. Now, here we are in March, and I should have started by now, so I am almost a week late. I bled for about an hour a few days ago, so technically, it was on time, but that was all it was. Anybody know what this could be? Obviously I COULD be pregnant, but its very unlikely. What do you think? TIA

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Well, I don't think anyone will ever read this, but my son is 4 months old now :) A womans period doesn't lie, if you're regular and something changes that, its probably a pregnancy!

I'm pretty regular on a 29 day cycle but I had three months in a row here recently that I was anywhere from 7 to 10 days late each time. Weird -- no reasons...my obgyn wasn't concerned, she just said to keep track of it and if it persists, then we'd check my thyroid. This last period was only 3 days late (which isn't odd for me if I'm stressed).

I'm also one of those girls whose period regulates with other women. There is one girl here at the office that for some reason my cycle linked to hers. Sometimes our bodies just do weird things!

well you know the old tale that females that are aound each other can pick up each others cycles....happened to my friend who lived with 2 roomates. there cycles all became the same. weird. anyway - it could be anything...you could have had some break thru bleeding. have you been on any new medications - that could also mess with your period. i would take a test for sure and then call your nurse and talk to her about it, they will probably want you to come in.
