It varies from women to women. Have you always had regular periods or irregular, prior to the birth control? I myself stopped in nov also and I had 2 normal period and then one irregular (10 days to early) so far. I always had normal periods prior to birth control. It's crazy how stopping the pill can mess you up so bad. I wouldn't let it go to long without seeing the doctor just to be on the safe side.

See a doctor, planned parenthood will see you for reduced cost. Also check into an iud as birth control.No hormones.

When I went off the pill, it took 6 months before I got a regular period, and I was always regular before. You probably have nothing to worry about (especially since you said you've taken pregnancy tests that have been negative). It can't hurt to go see your doctor, but try not to stress to much. Your body is just trying to get back to funtioning with its own hormones instead of the artificial one from the pill.
