Strange things happening, I need some advice pleaseeee

Hello ladies
i need to share and get some advice on this one...maybe someone experience what i am right now..DH and I are trying, its our first month.. my cycles are 35 days. My last period came Oct 12th and I started taking OPK Oct 31st took it for a week and never showed me a positive we didnt let that get on the way..so I did my calculations and I was supposed to O between Oct 31st and beginning of November. Yesterday I was supposed to get my period and I didnt, this morning I did EPT and it came out negative :( what is going on?:o Is it too early to test or what? It says results as early as 5 days. Hope is that:pray: Usually 4-5 days before I get my period I get sore boobs and cramps, break out and just know that Im gonna get my period but now no symptoms at all not even sore boobs, just a few pimples.. I thought I had pregnancy symptoms, I been gassy:redface: all week, stuffy nose and from time to time easily irritated, one day I cried outta nowhere!:o I am not a gassy person at all lol and i am usually pretty chill person..soo i dont know what to do now.. I think i should wait like 3 days and test again and if its negative go to the Doc..Also I am thinking maybe I ovulated late and have to wait a bit longer and take a test...idk? Maybe go to the doc and take a pregnancy test? I am going outta my mind! In the week of Nov 20th I traveled from the west coast to the east coast and stayed there for couple of days..maybe thats causing late period or no O? :o or maybe I ovulated while I was there..? I am also taking prental vitamins the cvs brand..but i don't think that should be a problem:o Any ideas or suggestions? I will appreciate your responses!!!

Take a deep breath!

TTC can be soooo stressful!

When were you testing with the OPK's? I know from when i was using a persona monitor that the LH surge usually occurs in the early hours of a morning, so testing around lunchtime is more likely to help you pinpoint that positive surge, as if you test first thing you can hit the time before the LH has made it into your urine and then it's already cleared again by the next day's test, kwim?

If i were you i'd wait 3 days and test again. It's sooooo hard to wait i know. Have you eer had a longer cycle than 35 days? I know when i was ttc my 28.5-day cycles which had been regular since DD's birth 3.5 years before suddenly went a bit wacky - mother nature loves to play games! LOL.

Hang in there, give it 3 days, test again if AF hasn't shown up, and if it's negative then get to a doctor for a blood test.

Thanks for the response!!! I got off the pill around Feb of 09 and figure out by now I should be fine..It made my periods longer now, 34-35, the last 2 cycles were 35 days. I started OPK Oct 31st first thing in the morning for a wk and never got a surge ughh. So weird:o because I've had CM and cramping. Traveling that month makes me think I might have not ovulated..i went from 105 degrees in the dessert to 50's up north and then 80's in FL! Also flying to me isnt my favorite thing to do lol I totally felt like i was preggo last week tho, ive had a lot of CM for the whole week! Also gassy..and i am not a gassy person at all lol. I was also emotional at times, easy irritated. And now no period and negative test. My heart sank this morning when i saw the result :(
Ill go to the doc for blood test in 3 days. If its a false alarm im thinking to start Fertility Friend charting but can I start that right away or wait for the period to come? Man its not easy being a woman!!
