15-17dpo - Symptoms and no AF!

[stephbr]

I use several different apps to track my cycles but this month I have an issue. I am currently 17dpo if I O'd as predicted on the 21st of January, although I didn't get EWCM until January 23 so I may have O'd later than predicted making me only 15dpo.

I decided to POAS on 2/2/14 (9-11dpo) as my AF was due February 4th. BFN. Tried again on 4/5 (11-13dpo), BFN, squinter of a line but may have been an EVAP. Again on 5/2(12-14dpo) and a clear BFN.

I have been feeling extra tired lately, have such sore BBS (don't recall this ever happening!), wet CM the whole way through, hasn't dried up like it normally would. I had really bad cramps on 27/1 and 28/1 which would have been 4-6dpo and generally feeling "off". I feel a slight twinge in my lower stomach, and my stomach feels itchy! I also have a stabbing pain really low in my stomach if I sneeze.

I have regular 29 day cycles on average and today is CD32! I'm sick of being in limbo and either want AF to show up or a line on a test so it makes sense. I don't feel the usual slight cramps I get before AF so it's driving me even more insane and here I am writing this novel!

When should I test again? Am I just crazy?

Do you chart your bbt or use opk's ?(you mentioned you track you cycles a few different ways). If you are 15-17 dpo the odds are you would have a bfp by now if you were pregnant so maybe you ovulated later than that. You have a lot of positive signs so hope you get your bfp!

I don't temp or use OPKs at the moment. Might have to start after this! I use a couple of different apps that predict my next cycles due date so I don't get caught out. I've done this for a year now and it's been spot on pretty much the whole time.

Yeah those apps work as long as you have a textbook cycle and O date but if there are any irregularities they can be inaccurate. I had fluctuating dates and so they never worked for me personally. Besides I wanted to see how my temperatures went after O which ended up being a good move because I had a luteal phase defect and wouldn't have caught it had I not temped! Best of luck hun and if you have any questions feel free to ask!
