I got scenario like this, my wife got monthly period around 21-22nd day of the month, her last mens was September 21-23 as per her. we got contact on October 2, 2007 & use the withdrawal method. This month of October expect to be 21 or 22nd mens to be arrive now its 9 days delayed. She got this symptoms on our 1st baby. As I notice she got lately stress due to drinking & late sleeping habit, now shes more worried cause of the delay.

There is no 'safe' day to have sex. If you don't want to get pregnant, you need to use some form of protection (withdrawal doesn't count as protection) or you could get pregnant.

The calender method is not a way to prevent pregnancy. It is only meant to be used by couples who are trying to get pregnant or a woman who has a lot of time and energy to devote to monitoring her cycle every day. You can't rely on it to not get pregnant.

So, yes, your wife could be pregnant. Have her take a test. I would suggest she stops drinking until she finds out if she's pregnant.
