For those that tested after AF was due.

[monday]

I'm not really charting & we're not really TTC at the moment, but we're not preventing anything if you know what I mean. This morning I felt a bit bloated so thought I'd put that into FF and had a look at what day I was on. It's coming up saying "you are past your usual luteal phase, you may take a test, you may be pregnant".

I'm a little afraid! I don't want a BFN. I also don't want to jump the gun & test only to find AF arriving in 2 hours. So I wonder, how long after AF was due did you test?

i tested the day before AF was due with DD2, it was negetive, the next day i had a small bleed, i figured it was AF, when i no more bleeding the next day i tested and it was positive

[Tanya]

So wait and see You will soon know... your body will tell you. But if you need to know you will have to do a HPT

Good luck!!

I tested the day i was due and i got a faint positive, tested the next day and it was still faint but it was darker and then had a BT and it was confirmed. Go with your gut instinct and good luck!! xx

I think deep down i knew but ddnt get round to doing a test until i was 5 weeks. It was a definate positive!!!

I'm not sure at all, so I think I'll just wait it out for the time being.

i'm kinda in the same boat. FF just changed my O date back a week (to when i was certain i Od ). and now i am one day late for AF....but i think i will wait until the end of the week to test (if AF doesnt arrive) cause FF may change it's mind again and bump me back up and i dont want to waste a test LOL!

although the needing to pee all the time is sending me bonkers lol.

that we both get a BFP!!

[monday]

Eeeeek, getting nervous! My average LP is 13 days (min 11 & max 14) & I'm up to 15 now. Getting a little excited & scared LOL!

Cassius, I'm not temping at the moment, but I've charted long enough to be pretty sure when I've O'ed, so mine is based on what I think. How exciting for you too, I was thinking about waiting til the end of the week too.

Wow - you're so restrained!
Good luck!

[monday]

I've had too many BFN's in my time that I'd prefer not to risk it!!

[CharlieBrownGirl]

I've yet to see a but I find getting the old HPT out usually brings out the good old AF
I guess I get my answer either way

Cassius2, I do hope you get your

I waited until about 5 days after AF was due. I was having morning sickness, but I wanted to wait as I could handle before testing. The test line came up before the control line, so there was no doubt.

[*Infinity*]

I normally waited at least 2 days after I was expecting AF. I have long cycles (anywhere between 32-38 days) so it was not uncommon for me to test on day 34 or 35 and then AF would show up on day 36

I was always restrained too.

[tk1999]

I waited until 17DPO because I knew I would be heartbroken by a BFN as we were actively TTC. It came up positive and DD was born in August 2009.

[Traveller]

I always tested a day or two before AF was due, and always got a negative. I never got a positive until at least 3 days after Af should have arrived (even with early pregnancy tests).

I admire your restraint though. The only time I managed not to test until late was with the twins, and that was more because I felt so pregnant a test was not needed apart from getting my referral to the midwife from my GP.

[onthefly]

Well, yeah, I do understand - I always figure I'll wait till the day after my longest cycle, but I never get there.
HPTs just seem to trigger af anyway.

[monday]

16DPO today & the only time I have ever gotten that far is when I've been pregnant. Can I dare to imagine it's possible even though we have around a 1% chance of falling pregnant naturally?

[onthefly]

Dare! Dare!
