It's almost more depressing when AF doesn't show

Grrr I never am late and am now 5 days late so took my second CBE digital and got my second BFN, and I did it first thing in the am. The box said 99% accurate after missed period so I'm bummed it didn't happen this month and now also confused about how and when to start charting bc it's late and I'm never late should I start temping now even if its not day 1 yet of cycle? At least if you are going to show AF, show up on time! Grrr vent over! Thanks for listening and have a great holiday and happy new year!

Never say never when TTC!  You probably O'd later than you think you did.  You can certainly start temping at any time to get into the habit, but unless you have not O'd yet at all you won't see much until you start a new cycle.  Good luck and happy holidays!

This happened to me last month, my cycle was 4 or 5 days later than usual (as usual you can get only a few months off BCP). It was incredibly frustrating. Hope you enjoy the holidays despite the frustration!

This actually happened to me earlier this cycle. You can check my ticker and see my chart -- I didn't start temping till CD 35 or so, and caught O on CD 50 when it finally happened. I too was "never" late, until this month. It happens. You can definitely start charting now if you like, you don't have to wait till CD 1. If anything, it'll help you get into the habit for next cycle. GL!

This same thing is happening to me right now!  Is this a common thing when TTC?  My period is always on time.  I was expecting it on Friday of last week, so I took a test in the evening when it didn't show.  Negative.  H and I were out of town from Saturday through today visiting family for the holidays.  I spent so much time in the bathroom checking for AF's arrival, but still nothing.  I spent the holidays avoiding caffeine and alcohol just in case since AF still hadn't shown.  My boobs have been sore, and I've had period-like cramps and generally been feeling crappy since late last week.  Normally, I have period cramps only on the first day of AF, so this has been way more annoying/uncomfortable.  I took a pregnancy test this evening and still negative.  I have been feeling gross and leading myself on with a small glimmer of false hope this entire time for nothing.  If AF would have just shown up on time, I would be done and over it by now and ready to start trying again in a few days.  But now, my entire cycle is put on hold until AF decides to show up, whenever that will be.  Ok, vent over.  Thanks for listening ladies!  It is so nice having someone who understands the frustration.  Best of luck to you all, and Happy Holidays!
