Afraid to test!
I did not use opks this month as whenever I get those positives I get anxious with time awareness. So I just decided to dtd every other day during my fertile period. I ovulate between day 14 to 20. This month I think I o'd on day 17 as the days following that day I felt warmer(I work in the mornings and I'm always cold in the dining room where I'm employed). A typical event during my lp.
So if I estimated correctly then af was due today. I have a 13 day lp. I know I could be off but not by more than a day or so. That being said I have not had usual af cramping. More just pressure and dull aches. At 9/10dpo I woke up at 4am with an achy lower back. Today it's been achy as well. I'm bloated. An achy lower back isn't something I usually notice before af.
I have not tested at all this cycle. I hate testing only to get a bfn and get af a couple days later. Plus this cycle I didn't track as heavily as usual.
Dumb question, but, should I test in am if there is still no af?

Yup I think a test is in order! Im in the same boat, dont wanna test cause I dont wanna see a bfn. But my af is due tomorrow and like you I feel no symptoms of it, so I am super hopeful...but i tested at 10dpo and got a neg, so I dont wanna test cause i dont wanna see another bfn then gt my af a few hours later. Bah.
Good luck though!!!

Last night I broke down and used a wondfo hcg test. It was bfn. I had only held my urine for maybe 2 hours. I didn't pee much and it was pretty light colored. Clinging to hope.... I didn't test today just in case af starts but she hasn't. Just checked cm and it's white. No hint of color. No cramps. Just a heavy full feeling and lower back ache. Not producing massive amounts of cm but enough to show on underwear. Have any of you tested? I don't wanna suffer alone! I have a frer 5 days sooner I've been holding on to. I think ill use it tomorrow morning if I don't get af or start cramping. I know if I cramp ill get af. I have read online plenty of women get negatives past when af is due. I'm not so hopeful that I'm one of the few who will be two weeks late before a bfp but I don't think up to 5 days late is totally unreasonable. Like I said I didn't test until I was 8 days late with my daughter. Good luck to us all!
