In general, how many DPO does it take for you to have AF?

I've read that 14 is the standard to get AF after O... (not from CD1 to O)

What is the general concensus???

I think I am usually about 14-15 days after O when AF arrives. Hope that helps

yeah, AF always comes 14 DPO for me.

AF come 13-15 dpo for me.

That's around what I figured!!!! They say that the pre O period is the variable period, but the time between O and AF is pretty standard across the board... which makes me TOTALLY HAPPY!!!!

I had a chemical on Nov 17th and decided not to wait to TTC again (just couldn't imagine putting off potentially getting preggers).... So DH and I decided to DTD when I ovulated (Dec 14th - got 3+ OPK's).... I still haven't had AF since the m/c but I assume that even though it took me forever to O, once I did, I could expect to get AF on the standard 14DPOish.

And I am now 17DPO.... which puts me about 3 days late for AF... I have a few symptoms, but am trying not to read too much into anything at this point (although with what I'm experiencing, the symptoms are feeling good).

I've decided to wait to test for as long as I canbut I'll treating myself as though I'm preggers though (no drinkies on New Years).

I think I will test on Jan 7th. This year will mark the 10th anniversary since my mom passed away (Jan 7, 98)... so I thought that if I don't get AF by then, I'm likely preggers and getting what should be a VERY positive HPT on a day that has such a sad memory attached to it might help to ease the pain I feel every year...

Wish me luck, and LOT AND LOTS OF STICKY DUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Wow, that sounds really great! I admire your patience in waiting until the 7th to test, but I totally understand your reason for wanting to wait. gl when you test! KUP!

Oh Wow!! That sounds very promising!! I think that is a great idea about waiting. What an awesome way to brighten up your day that day! Good Luck sweetie!!

OMG girl, you have major patience! I would have already tested by now if I was late. I really hope you are pregnant! I will be on pins and needles waiting for your update!
