Biggest Bummer so Far in TTCing!

ciaranotthesinger

You know, I wasn't really all that hopeful this month, barely got in time for BDing since DH was traveling.  I had to fly in to see him to get in that 1 Day before O BD. So when I didn't get my AF when it was supposed to be due, I thought, well...maybe. So then I got my hopes up.  I ended up testing on 15 DPO but with a BFN. Bummer.  So I thought, well I guess it's just a day late (I'm normally on a 28 day cycle).  I've been feeling these cramps and twinges like I was getting my AF.  I waited for another 2 days and still nothing.  Hope shot back up of course.  Maybe I was just one of those people who had slow rising HCG.  And the pain is just my uterus expanding in preparation for pregnancy.

Of course, AF showed up this morning.  I was sooooooo disappointed.  And sooooo confused.  I've never had a 32 day cycle before.  And I thought chemical pregnancy or miscarriage, but since I tested BFN, I don't think so.  

Grrrrr!

I'm sorry to hear that. Mother nature certainly plays tricks on us. Good luck next cycle!

That happened to me last cycle. I also normally am a 28 day cycle kind of gal, but it was 31 days. Learned it was due to stress (I'm planning my wedding right now).

GL next cycle!

Sorry, but good luck TTC in your new cycle

Sorry Mine kind of went the opposite way last month. I am normally 28, was kind of getting my hopes up because we had decent timing, then AF showed on day 26

Sorry... totally stinks. I was perfectly regular for about the first year of TTC...then one month I had a 40 day cycle (coulda been a CP but I'm not quick to POAS) and it's been totally wonky ever since. Grr.

I'm sorry about the disappointment! Were you temping/charting? It sounds like you O'd late, not that your period was late. My cycles were always "regular" until we started ttc. The stress of trying can make you O late or just change your hormones and/or your cycles. You may not have even had sex at the correct time if you O'd late. Charting has saved my sanity! Hang in there.
