well ladies, i'm currently on CD33. My longest cycle since I started tracking them back in June was 31 days. I want to be excited, however I took a HPT on CD 31 in the late afternoon (got a little overzealous), and got a BFN. I took it because out of all 8 months I had tracked so far, only one other cycle was 31 days. So I thought I would try because I just couldn't help myself!! I was getting too excited & I figured, I had only bought it at the dollar store & I had 2 other ones. What was the harm?! BFN. then the next morning, I woke up with no AF yet again & thought, well, i'm officially late, so maybe yesterday was too soon. I also thought, maybe if I use first morning pee like it recommends, maybe it will detect it. So yesterday, CD32, first thing in the morning, I took my second dollar store HPT - still BFN!! But here I am, CD33, no AF, but I refuse to take another HPT for another couple of days since I just had 2 days in a row of BFN!! I haven't really been feeling any symptoms of pregnancy, but I haven't really felt any AF symptoms either. The only thing is that for the past 4-5 days, I've had minor cramping on my lower left side, similar to menstrual cramps, but not as bad. Also, when I get menstrual cramps, it's usually on both sides. Also, I usually have some spotting 1-2 days before AF - no spotting whatsoever. I'm actually afraid i'll see spotting every time I use the bathroom!! The weird thing is, I tried temping this month for the first time - never saw a spike, but when I saw my gyn 2 weeks ago & i expressed my concerns w/ that, she said she's almost positive that I am ovulating b/c my cycles are way too normal to not be. So, in one way, I feel like maybe the temping thing was user error, but in another way, I feel like it's just wishful thinking! has anyone else with a typically regular cycle ever had anything like this??? i'm going nuts over here!! haha
PS, sorry for the novel of a post!!!
