Should I test? - CD31

Sofia

My boyfriend and I aren’t officially trying to get pregnant, but also not really trying to not get pregnant. Anyway we had lots of sex during my fertile window, and used the pull out method haha…I know, it’s not reliable, but also we don’t care. We’d be happy to have a baby, as we had a loss back in June.

I believe I ovulated on CD16, and I am now on DPO16 or CD 31. I took an easy at home test yesterday and it was negative, but I don’t know how reliable they are. They kept showing up negative after my miscarriage, even though other tests came up positive. What is your opinion on those tests?

Also, should I even consider the possibility of being pregnant since we used the pull out method? I feel like it’s a long shot, but hey, it’s not unheard of. I’m basically scared of getting my hopes up and for the test to be negative, and also scared of the possibility of having another loss 😞. There’s basically no winning, but I’d be so excited to be pregnant again.

I don’t really have symptoms of pregnancy, other than being a little more tired, which I’ve attributed to the fact that the days are super short here where I live. Maybe some super light nausea here and there, but not even close to what I felt last time. And my emotions, omg they’re all over the place, which I was attributing to PMS.

Here is my temp chart too. I think it didn’t confirm ovulation because I have one temperature missing. But maybe the other option is I didn’t ovulate and therefore no period? Lots of questions, I’d love to hear your thoughts.
