You are probably not pregnant if you used a condom and there were no accident. Stopping birth control can delay the return of your period. You can read this article, the section titled: "What happens if you stop taking birth control but your period doesn't resume?" Which you can find here.
Your period should start within three months. Most women begin ovulating and have their period within 4-6 weeks. They advise if it hasn't started withing three months to take a home pregnancy test.
Stress can also delay your period. See this article by Merely Me, the community leader for this site.
