17 DPO...whats going on?
| Mon, 08-18-2003 - 9:36pm |
Hi,
I am new to temping, this is my first month. I also am recently off BC Pills (3rd cycle off), so I don't exactly know what my normal cycle is, or cycle length. Anyway, I am on my 17th DPO and still no AF. I have also tested and gotten a BFN every time...what is going on? Could I still be pregnant but just not registering on the test yet?

(Temps are still up today, though a little bit lower than yesterday. I should note that I had a restless sleep and ended up taking my temp an hour earlier than normal due to being woken up by comotion on the street outside at 5am, and having to pee! Guess that could have something to do with the temp being slightly lower!)
I'd go see your doctor as soon as you can to confirm. I'd trust an accurately done chart over a hpt (especially w/ a neg).
Good luck.

Anyway, I am so tired of getting BFN, so I am going to wait till early next week...if I haven't gotten AF by then, I will test again. If nothing by then, I will go see the doctor.
Thanks...I will keep you updated!

The only times you get more than 18 days w/o pregnancy is when there is a blighted ovum or other issue that a hpt would give you a false positive as well (eventually).
Ironically, I haven't charted temperatures since conceiving my first. I just don't get the requisite three hours of sleep every night to give me a good chart. (Neither of my kids are great sleepers, and now I'm not either!) So I've just been using c/m and c/position. The problem with not taking temps is that I don't have that definitive "Yes, I ovulated!" I can only say, "It looks like I ovulated."
Well continued luck. Hope those hcg levels get to the point they give you that BFP!
