Has anyone ever had a late AF and BFNs that turned into a BFP?

Hi everyone, I'm now CD41 of a usually pretty regular 30/31 day cycle. My AF was due around nine days ago but no sign. Been having mild cramps on and off and then had slight brown spotting CD38/39 which I thought might turn in to AF but it was just ever so slight (like only on wiping - sorry) and then gone. When AF was due I used a frer which was negative. Since, I've used a few ic which have all been negative apart from one questionable one and a CB digital which said not pregnant. I've been reading about anovulatory cycles and late ovulation but I did have a lot of ewcm around cd20-22 which then turned more like school glue. Other things which are a bit out of character are fatigue and really vivid dreams. Would really appreciate anyone else's advice/experiences as I totally understand it could just be that I haven't ovulated or ovulated late but also can't help but have that bit of hope! Thank you.

Hello mellongoose! Good luck! I'm on day 31 no sign of AF and feel like I have very slight thrush sorry TMI! I keep feeling cramps like I'm going to bleed and over he past two weeks feel like I've had a few symptoms but then I wonder if the symptoms are in my head! I'm so impatient just want to know one way or the other but the tests are all negative!

Only me again. Af got me last night. When I was looking over my notes I saw that I possibly had a second lot of ewcm except I dismissed it as I was pronounced I had already ovulated. Obviously I should have listened to my body as it meant we didn't have a chance of catching that egg full stop. How to waste a month in a bloody long journey? Very cross with myself.
Dp said "oh well, at least you know what to look for next cycle". I said I didn't know if I wanted "next cycle". I've had enough Sad.

I'm cd38, 16dpo I think!? Bfn Sunday last. Testing again tomorrow. Hoping for bfp at some point. No sign of AF. Dtd every other day if not every day so should catch O whenever that occurred.

Oh delilah I'm sorry to hear that. Please don't be cross with yourself. Maybe relax for a month and go back to it in Oct or Nov. Be kind to yourself Flowers

lousy FX for you xx

As for me, AF got me this morning Sad. Must just have been a random 35 day cycle. So now I have no idea when I'm due to ovulate next!!!!! Onwards, then! x

Thank you Mellon. I've got to have the amh test soon to see if my low egg reserve is as bad as it appears. If it is we're on a tight schedule to consider icsi but I'm just not ready to spend nearly £5000 on a 20% success rate. I'm just so fed up. I never in a million years thought we would be fighting infertility. Part of me thinks I should go buy another thermometer to track next cycle so at least I know when I'm due on, the other part of me wants to go back on the pill and forget it. Jist as my cycle starts to settle it goes all pear shaped again. That one was the longest yet.

I recommend using thermometer and opks and I tracked daily with the thermometer and opks from cd10, I'm lucky I have very regular periods and I ovulate same day both my boys were conceived very quickly as I knew when I ovulated cd16 both times and both due dates were on 9th of the month and born on 23 and 24th of previous month so they can work really well if you r regular ish
