Have you tried taking a pregnancy test using the first morning urine? Or were you on any birth control pills/injections? You may be right about the stress but you didn't mention how long it threw your cycle out of whack for or whether things were slowly returning to normal before all this happened. Either way, I would suggest making an appointment with your ob/gyn because even if you were trying, you want to make sure things are ok before going ahead. Doctors often suggest that you get your system back to normal before trying for a baby.
Good luck.

You still haven't mentioned whether or not you took a pg test or if you were planning to?

Tiny bit confused at question. Irregular cycles happen for many reasons. Stress, recent meds, going off BC, etc. The body will act like you are having your period even w/o bleeding...cramping, PMS, acne, etc. The cramping could have been from your "normal cycle", the body not excepting a conception, not bleeding normal, or again many other things. I don't know if this helps. Good Luck!!

Have you tried taking another urine test since? You could also request a blood test from your doctor just to clear things up once and for all. Then you could take things from there.
