When should I test??

I dont know exactly when I ovulated, but I had EWCM CD 11-15.

Our BD timing was not exactly perfect, but we did BD CD11 CD13 and CD16. So I think there is definitely some chance. Today is CD 27.

My cycles average 30-33 days but I've had a couple of 28 day cycles.

I'm trying not to overanalyze anything as we just started trying again after a year hiatus.

So, when would you test?

I think you could test now. Assuming you ovulated somewhere between CD 11-15 you would be around 12-16DPO so I think you can def test. Try using a FRER!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

i agree... not that its impossible that you get a BFP now... its just unlikely and BFN's are depressing

What I'm getting at is that I'm not sure since my cycles have been a little irregular by a few days...I guess I'll test on CD31 the first time if AF doesnt rear her ugly head...

I see what you mean...

Are you using any sort of website to help track AF?

Yup, I use FF and I track EWCM. After looking again, it seems that I get AF 16 days after my last day of EWCM. So, since my last day of EWCM was CD 15, I guess AF should be due on Saturday. I'll test then if she doesnt rear her head. I never thought of looking back to see about EWCM. I have BBT thermometer but I've yet to use it...

I'm a big fan of encouraging people to wait until after AF is late... like really late... like later than you ever thought AF could be... but I know that's really hard for most people to do. I'm of the "you're either PG or not" camp so waiting longer doesn't do anything but make it easier to tell without getting false negatives...

Then again, I P'dOAS on CD62 the month I got my BFP (my cycles varied from 34 to 59 to 85 days and everywhere in between, but usually either 34 or 59).

Sending you lots of Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon and wishing you the best!!!

I personally wouldnt wait that long. Especially this cycle since we have a wedding next weekend and wouldnt want to drink if I possible preggo. I'm going to try to hold out until Sunday, but I might have to test on Saturday. At least I'll be really busy tomorrow so I hopefully wont think about it that much.
