When should I start testing? What DPP am I?

Hi, ladies. Just after a little bit of help for this cycle. My last period started on 11.1.16 and my last cycle was 32 days long. The cycle before that I started my period on the 10.12.15 and my cycle before that was 36 days long. I have used a few ovulation calculators and they all generally said I was fertile from around the 25th of January til about the 3rd of February based on a 32 day cycle. We have had sex every other day if not everyday from the 25th... just wondering when I should start testing? I tested this morning with a One Step strip and it was negative. Thank you

I don't usually test until around the time period is due, so maybe in a weeks time? It's tough with irregular cycles.

On a 32 day cycle ovulation would have ovulated Jan 29th (ovulate day 18) and a 36 day cycle you would ovulate feb 2nd (day 22) so if you bd Jan 25- this Friday it sounds like you would have it covered. Is 36 days your longest cycle? So based on the longer 36 day cycle you would be only 1 dpo and the shorter cycle 5 dpo. So I would wait another week at least to test again. You'll be anywhere from 8dpo to 12dpo based on your last two cycles. Good luck!

I tested from 8dpo. The line didn't appear until around 10dpo.
Good luck

Off topic question. Is your user name a line from Friends?

Ps - I would wait about a week to start testing, but like MoBaby said, you could still be too early to see a line if you ovulated later! good luck!
