Time of day - CD1....

[smiales01]

I very often come on in late at night (after 11pm) or in the night, when this happens do you class that day as CD1 or do you class it as the following day?

So much conflicting advice everywhere on the web, some say anything after midnight goes to the next day.

What do you all do?

After 11pm I'd class as the next day as CD1. but only coz I'd be asleep and wouldn't know until the next day

It's entirely up to you I guess, so long as you're consistent, if you're watching for changes in luteal phase etc.

For me, I count it as whether I've gone to sleep for the night or not - so 2am if I hadn't gone to bed would be the day before. Like you I often seem to come on late at night too!

It is usually counted as the day you wake up to full bleeding.

I would count the next day as CD1.

I tend to come on spotting and then within a couple hours, there is a flow. But if that happened at 10pm at night, I would take CD1 as the following day.

Im the same as murder if i havent gone to bed then I'd class that as the same day, just like when recording when we've dtd, even if its 1'o'clock in the morning in my mind it isnt the next day!

Consistency is the key!!

Thanks guys, defo the next day for me as it was early hours and even then not full full flow till the morning.
