To Test or Not to Test...UPDATED 9/30
OK, here's the deal. I'm on CD33. My cycles haven't been all that regualr since coming off the pill 6 months ago. My average for AF to show up is 32 days.
Since yesterday I've been feeling pains like AF is going to show up but it's not here yet. Normally for me when I get the pains she's here within a few hours.
I'm not sure when I O'd but if mmc was right it was cd15. I'm not 100% sure but my luteal phase is 14 days.
So my question is...do I test or should I wait?
thanks!
Update 9/30
So I didn't test this morning. Not that I didn't want to and not that I sat there and debated it for a good 5 minutes.
I could just be having a long cycle this month and I'm not sure I wanted a BFN hanging with me all day.
I guess I'll just wait and see what tomorrow brings.

thanks Deanna! I'm so confused! I'm not sure that I am late but I'm probably close.
I'm trying really hard not to get my hopes up, but when she wasn't here this morning I couldn't help it.

35 days. It was the only one that went that long. The others were either 31,32 or 33 days

then, (and this is just my opinion) - i would wait until you are 35 days.
Coming off BCP REALLY, REALLY, REALLY can mess with you for a long time. A friend of mine, her schedule wasn't set for 8 months (32 day cycles, 21 day cycles, etc)...meaning her cycles were all over the MAP.....(it took her 11 months to conceive after coming off the pill).

I think I'm going to try to wait as long as possible (which would be Wednesday -- if AF doesn't show before then)
I appreciate the reply Jess!

No worries!!! I always try and wait until i'm mentally prepared for the BFN...(last 3 times i tested, af arrived THAT day)...and i'm never ready - so i don't test...

Re: To Test or Not to Test...I need some opinions!
I had no plans on testing...but this is just a little strange for me....and it's terrible b/c everytime I go pee I'm checking to see if AF is here.
I think I need my head checked :)
