Chart Confusion! 17DPO-No AF-Negative HPT-What to do next??
Hello!
I am new to the TTC scene and have to say that it has sucked me in completely :) This is the hubby and I's first month actively TTC/tracking BBT etc....and of course it seems like I am having a wacky month.
According to FF, I ovulated on CD 14, and today is now 17dpo. The only thing is......I am now two days late for AF, and all of the HPTs I have taken are coming back negative. From my novice chart reading capabilities, my chart seems to reinforce that ovulation occurred that day, but I'm at a loss for what is going on. This is also my first month off of BCP but in the past I have always been very regular (even coming off BCPs), and if anything, my period has always come early.
Can anyone take a look at my chart and tell me what you think?? How long should I wait to get a blood test? Is there any hope for a BFP this cycle?
Thanks so much and baby dust to all!

Your chart seems incosistant. Are you taking your BBT RIGHT when you wake up at the same time every day? Have you been using OPKs to reinforce when you ovulate? I actually stopped charting my temp when I was TTC since it was too inaccurate for me since I couldn't replicate the same environment day after day due to my job. But if the HPT is negative now then you are most likely not pregnant. I am guessing its just the pill messing up your cycle. For me whenever I stop it I don't get my cycle back for 6 to 8 weeks.

Thanks for your response ayeayecaptn! I have taken my BBT in the morning at 6:30AM, in the same exact manner, EVERY morning--no getting up beforehand or anything. It seems like maybe I am geared toward just having erratic BBTs? I even go to bed wearing the same kinds of pj's blankets to try and maintain consistency!
I had taken OPKs everyday through CD20 approx...all were negative though. Unfortunately, I was't able to take those as consistently as I would have liked and am thinking maybe I missed the surge??
Just thought I had a pretty clear thermal shift that indicated I had o'ed..who knows. Its just weird because coming off the pill has NEVER affected my cycles in the past. Thanks for your thoughts!
