16 dpo and still bfn. anyone in the same boat??

[lilydaisical]

There are so many people who are telling me that they don't think it's pregnancy, they're certain it's something else. Stress, lack of ovulation, etc. I don't know. I just feel extremely off, so I'm still waiting it out. I have a couple more tests (I seem like a POAS addict now, I'm sure lol...) that I'm going to take Monday if there's still nothing. I'd been using FRER, and a friend advised me to try Clear Blue. Apparently it was positive for her when FR was still giving a BFN... but I've also heard people say the opposite. Either way, if AF doesn't show by Monday and I'm still getting a BFN, I'm going to get a blood test.

Sorry to say I had this last month I have never been late in my life except for maybe a day last month I was 7 days late before my AF came. I was certain I was pregnant but I really think I was stressing about it so much it made me late. I didn't think I was stressed but I was pretty obsessed with reading all the symptoms and on here etc so it makes sense i was so late. It's hard not to be anxious about it im on 8dpo and I knew exactly when I ovulated this month never had that before so I will be testing this upcoming week. Let us know how it goes for you hope its not stress

I am 15dpo. I know it is not much compared to most of you but I am starting to get frustrated. My temperature is still above the cover-line, I had cramps in the TWW but they are barley there now, I either had obvious pregnancy symptoms from 7-8dpo or had a bug, still cream CM AND still I only get BFN's with my 10mlu tests. I took a test this morning and DH could not see a thing (although he could not see my first 3 BFP's with DS) while turning it to the light I could see a where the line should be but only enough to be an evap (almost not there so I could not tell if it was pink, grey or white). I guess I will probably just come on today.

I am worried if I get a BFP now anyway. I had orange/light-red spotting, literately 3-5 spots, at 12dop and I have never had spotting for any reason so I wondered if that was a late implantation but then I read the research about if implantation happens at 11dpo or after that there is a 82% chance of MC and I have already had 2 before I had DS.

Maybe a bit of hope for us yet...

I had a VERY faint line on an IC test last night. FMU today it's still faint but a bit more convincing- definitely pink coloured. Af is 5 days late now. If she stays away I'll test with a brand name tomorrow. So nervous, hope it's not just a dodgy test!!!

 

[JohnsonGirl]

An update for me -- I'm on CD 36 (I'm normally 33). Last night I noticed the slightest bit of brown spotting so I didn't bother testing this morning thinking AF was finally coming. But when I got to work (I work in a hospital), later on in the morning I thought WTH, I'll test and it was POSITIVE! Faintly, but positive.

However, I tested when I got home tonight with First Response and Clear Blue Easy, both were negative. I did drink 1L of water about 2-3 hrs before I tested so I don't know if the sample is diluted? Or I could be having a chemical pregnancy, ect.

I'm going to test again tomorrow morning and see what happens.

Sounds promising. Fingers crossed for you x

 

[JohnsonGirl]

Okay, so I couldn't wait until FMU to retest.
Bought a digital and..... cant believe it!!!

I'm 5 days late for AF and had many BFN's until last night and this morning!

Hang on in there everyone with no show AF's and BFN's

Congrats, JohnsonGirl!!!!!! AF still hasn't arrived for me (6 days late here) so I'll probably test in the morning with a digital myself (I bought them yesterday but forced myself not to take them this morning). But very happy for you!!!

 

[kpk]

She's here.

 

[LWilson]

After my positive test, I had a negative one this morning. I'm on CD 37 and 5 days late.

And then AF arrived a few hours ago so I'm chalking up my positive to a Chemical Pregnancy or a possible evap line. I'm glad I can at least start trying again now.

Congrats JohnsonGirl!! Lots of sticky baby dust to you!

Joining you ladies...AF was due yesterday and today is nearly over still no AF!

I'm 15 DPO today, had pink/brown spotting around 9DPO, today I have bright white stringy cervical mucous, wth?! I have taken a few tests since 11DPO absolutely nothing!

Received FRER in the post this morning, have previously been testing with superdrug own and ICs....think I'm gonna wait to see if AF turns up between now and Fri, if not I will use FRER...just don't want to waste it!

Up until Sunday I was feeling PG, had nausea from 10DPO till 13DPO

Now I feel nothing...no feeling of AF no symptoms...nada

Xxx

 

[Jazzie2011]

Hi Ladies, mind if I join you? I am on 20DPO, 6 days late for AF but still getting BFN on FRER test this morning

I just want to test all the time but think my OH will call the men in white coats if I go on anymore about it haha I am never ever this late and my periods are usually like clockwork every month. I think my body is broken and not working any more

Symptom wise I had sicky feelings the week after my O date but they have passed now, so I think it was probably more likely due to the heat that we had at the time. I have some serious spots on my face and sore, swollen bbs. Feeling very very tired also.

What to do!!

 

[lilydaisical]

I'm officially 8 days late. I tested yesterday morning with CB Digital, and got a BFN. I'm gonna hold off for a few days. Close friends are urging me to go get a blood test Friday because they're as impatient as I am to find out for sure, but I'm trying to stall them and convince them to wait another week, at the very least, because I'm not sure if they'd actually give me a blood test this early...?

 

[Mellie1988]

I dont think they do a blood test until you have missed 2 periods? Could be wrong tho

X

 

[Jazzie2011]

Hi lilydaisical, I feel for you! Hope we can all stick together on this thread and support each other, and fingers x'd for everyone that we are all late because we are indeed preggo and we will get our BFPs very soon!!

Mellie1988, keep us posted if you do test!!

That's what I think I've read somewhere, but I'm not sure. I just want to know, so I can do everything I need to do as soon as I possibly can.

 

[RexyI]

Can I join?!

I too am 16 dpi I think! Been ttc for over a yr and recently diagnosed with pcos so had my first af (using metformin) at end of July. I took clomid and had a pelvic scan and had 2 eggs that looked like they would be ready.

I've had bfn for all tests (I've done a fair few, I too am a bit obsessive)

I've had some strange symptoms, creamy cm, pains, occasional sick feeling, some headaches hear and there.

I'm now having a bit of a skin breakout, and a bit of brown spotting today. As I haven't had an af until now in AGES, could this be her returning? Or signs of a bfp but not showing yet?! Confused!!!!!!!

X

Hi ladies!
Well im *apparently* 16dpo now.(cd34)......last four days ive had mega amounts of watery cm (sorry tmi) i usually get a day or two before period due though. Ive been mega crampy around 10dpo and sunday and yesterday really crampy. I was dizzy and nausas week of my *apparent O* my bbs are now tender-not nornl for me until af starts. Was v.gassy (sorry tmi again) at 7dpo sssooo tired tgat i wanted to cry and a bit dizzy. and now cant stop burping! My OH is like that the hell.
However i havent tested yet as my cycles have been totaly whacky for padt 6months although last one was 31 days so i thought they were back on track ( was regular 31 days for past ten years) my stomach is rumbling as i type this although ive just eaten!
Too scared to test to face a bfn......
Baby dust to all of us!! X
