Once again, I'm frustrated. Last month, I got a false positive pregnancy test. This month, my period is three days late. That may not seem like a big deal, but for me it is. My cycles have been 30 days forever. I don't know why it's late??? I've taken several tests and all of them are negative.

What is going on? I wasn't stressed this month. I'm off for the summer so I've had less stress than usual. Hopefully AF comes soon. Let's get it over with!

I'm just tired of all this. It's just a gigantic waiting game that always lets me down.

  1. Have you started charting at all yet? Maybe you ovulated late. Sometimes it just happens. If you aren't charting, I really recommend it! You won't get stressed when you think you're late and it really helps to pin point when to have sex to make sure you don't miss your most fertile time. Let me know if you want more info on it! I use fertility friend and it's so easy after you get the hang of it.

    1. I tried charting this month, but because I'm not working, it's really hard for me to take my temp at the same time each day. Some days it would be 6 a.m. and other times 9 a.m. Does the time really matter? Also, what if I wake up to use the restroom every morning at like 3 a.m. will that affect it?

      Thanks for your comment and your advice. Still thinking about you. Hope you're doing well.

    2. I set my alarm for 6:30am and take my temp at that time, everyday. I go back to sleep until 7 during the week and on the weekends I still sleep in. I set my alarm for that time because my husband gets up and sometimes I lay awake while he gets ready. Usually I fall asleep with the thermometer still in my mouth and wake up when it beeps haha. I'd say you should take your temp at pretty much the same time everyday to get a clear shift. If you get up at 3 and then take your temp at 6 it shouldn't matter. You just need 3 hours of sleep, so if you get up at 5 to pee, I'd take your temp then instead of waiting til 6. I hope this helps!

    3. That sounds like a good plan! Thanks for the help. I'm still waiting on AF. Tomorrow will be 6 days late and still all negative tests. It's driving me crazy!!

    1. Hey girl! Just wanted to let you know what we did. It is so hard waiting and so hard to understand because you feel like you are doing EVERYTHING right. We THOUGHT we were too but found out we weren't. On the third month trying I gave in and bought the digital ovulation tests (that give you a smiley when you are ovulating) and we got pregnant the first month using them. They are pricey but worth it. AMAZON is the cheapest place to find them. Anyway, my cycles were 33 days and I thought the whole time I was ovulating 15-16 days after (all signs were at the same time as well) but little did we know, I wasn't ovulating until day 23!! We would have never known without the digital ovulation tests. Sorry this is so long, but if your have ANY questions feel free to email me and natandleepody@gmail.com (I'm the only one who checks the email...lol) I know it is difficult playing the waiting game but it will happen girl!
