AF 6 Days Late. Every Test BFN.

[DazzleGem]

Hi all

I'm so confused. My AF is never this late. My cycle is around 30-31 days the past few months but I'm 6 days late and keep getting BFNs on FRER tests with FMU.

I don't feel any AF symptoms and I'm getting worried now.

Has anyone experienced something similar? We tried to concieve on everyday i thought i was fertile. (CD 8,9,11,12,13,14,16,17 & 18)

Im going out of my mind in this limbo!

Hi @DazzleGem

I'm currently 2 weeks late for my period but still getting bfn. I've been told some people miss periods sometimes so I'm going with that rather than stress anymore-I've spent the last 2 weeks stressing . It's so frustrating. I'm back to using opks and got a positive so I'm ovulating again.

I've read lots of stories where people haven't got a bfp until at least a week late so there is still a chance for you! Do you have any symptoms at all?

[DazzleGem]

No symptoms - i have a terrible cold at the moment sonits difficult to tell! :(

Im trying not to stress but its so difficult when i have no signs of whats happening!

I just wondered if anyone had experienced this i guess or if i should see a doc?

I just got my period a week late. Wasnt actively TTC last month but POAS as this never happens to me either. But AF finally came. I think sometimes it can just be late. ☺

It's very difficult not to stress but it does happen. I'd suggest going to see the doctor next week if af still not here

So i got my period today on cd36.
Ive never been that late before i dont know if it was down to stress.
Going on to next month does this mean i might ovulate later? Last day we tried was cd18 were we too early?

I had BFN for 2 bloody weeks after when my period was due. Combination of low HCG levels and late ovulation, i was pregnant!

Crosspost, sorry

[DazzleGem]

Any advice of when my ovulation date would be?
I was a bit sad when my period came. I thought we had done everything right ! Guess it was my first time i shouldn't beat myself up

Dazzle, I usually ovulate on cd20 so you were possibly too early. Look out for ewcm. DTD every other day from cd10 to cd25 but if you have a feeling you're ovulating DTD every day. You could use opks and temp too.

I'm 5 days late now with BFNs. If no AF by Tuesday I'm going to see a doctor.

[DazzleGem]

Thank you. I felt more cm later on in my cycle so maybe i do ovulate later.

I hope this cycle is ours i do think finishing too early might have been the issue.

I've never used opks before so a bit nervous on how they work lol.

Good luck to you in your cycle :)

Just went to the loo and AF has arrived. Actually relieved rather than upset. I'm going to buy some clear blue opks now. In 2014 I used internet cheapie opks but never got a clear positive but my two year old is evidence that I did in fact ovulate that month! So for me they weren't helpful. However temping worked a treat (but can only confirm when ovulation took place, not predict it). I'm struggling to temp this time round as having a child that doesn't sleep in I can't take my temperature when calm and just woken up as I'm usually full of a rush of adrenaline hearing my DD crying in the mornings.

Good luck to you too. Hopefully see you in an antenatal thread soon.
