Hi all, i'm hoping someone can help because this is so confusing.  I'm 28 and live with my db and his three kids all girls aged 17, 11 and 5.  My db and i decided to ttc around 4 months ago, not long i know.  My last af was june 17th I know I ov as I felt really sharp pains from both sides.  I have done three tests, last one was last night all have bfn.  I have sore breasts and feel tired but thats about it.  I don't know whats going on but have always had a regular af of around 31 days, I would be grateful for any advice.

hiya if you scroll down to the bottom of the page you will see a pregnancy calculator, this is based on a 28 day cycle. I have put in your first day of your last menstral cycle. the results come in that you may not get a relible positive until the 22nd of july and since you have a 31 day cycle I suppose you should add a few days onto that.

give it a few more days hun and I hope that you get the news you are hopeing for.

Hi, you don't say which date you think you ov'ed on that would be a more accurate way of calculatin if your af is late or not.  It's been 37 days since the start of your last af but how many days since you think you O'ed?  The luteal phase generally lasts anywhere from 10 to 16 days if you haven't had af for 18 days after O then it's a possibility you are pregnant.  The only way to truly know if you O'ed though is to either do your basal body temperature every day or have an ultra sound which shows the egg.  Good luck and let us know how you get on.
