Ask your doctor to do your blood hCG level as that is more reliable than the normal urine test.
Sometimes for no particular ( or for unknown) reason, body just acts funny and period gets delayed. Sometimes factors such as breast feeding, weight loss, stress, exercise etc also affect the period.
Another option is to do a sonogram but I am not too sure, how often they do it for checking for pregnancy.
Good Luck .

Could just be that it is taking your body a little time to kick in... and get back into the swing of things...

Have a relative who was actually pregnant but past 14 weeks the urine doesn't show the HCG anymore and you need a blood test - but you said that you had a full period...

I get late periods when I have cysts on my ovaries (I have poly-cystic ovary syndrome) but they usually arrive 2-4 weeks late and are very light - usually followed by mid cycle bleeding - very confusing....I just toddle off to the doc...to check it out - just in case.....

If i were you I would go to my doctor - just to be on the safe side. Get a full blood test done in case it's hormonal - or not....

I wish you the very best regardless, and hope you are enjoying your baby, they grow up so fast.

Stress, change in cycle, hanging around a diferent group of women....many things can effect it. maybe try going on the pill to regulate it
