AF no Show

Hi everyone,
I'm currently on CD35 and I think around 14/15dpo. My usual cycles are 30-31 days. We DTD around 5 times within my FW this month and and as a result, I ended up on antibiotics for a uti. Anyway, now my AF is 4/5 days late and I don't have any usual cramps etc to show that it's coming. I took an ic and a frer yesterday with fmu and they were both bfn. I took another ic this morning and again it was a bfn. Has anyone else experienced a no-show period and BFNs?

How long is your LP usually? Because it might be you just ovulated a bit late, but most people tend to have the same length LP. So you might not be so late afterall??

FRER is pretty accurate a day or two before AF due, but there are still people who won't get a positive on any pregnancy test until after AF due... So basically, time will tell!! It is an annoying game this TTC lark... Unfortunately false negatives can be really common, but false positives are exceedingly rare.

Hi physics thanks for your reply. My lp is usually 11-12 days. I had ewcm and ovulation pain cd20 and then ewcm cd22 so it's possible I ovulated later but still would expect AF soon. It is so frustrating this waiting game. If she's coming just want it to happen so we can try again next cycle. I don't tend to ovulate until about cd20 which makes cycles feel like forever. Really hope you're having better luck than me?

Nope... I too ov around cd 20ish (well, it's been anywhere cd 15-24) and my LP is 14 days nowadays. Irregular cycles are really fun, NOT!

Currently Cd3. Cycle 5, Month 6 of TTC.

Going to take a break from the intensity for a few months (kinda would like to avoid a May - August baby)... and hoping to invoke Sod's Law!!

I really hope you get answers soon!! Good luck!

Thank you. I honestly never thought it would be this hard, physically for it to happen and emotionally. Really hope you get your bfp soon Smile
