Is there still hope?

Hi ladies,

So I was 14 dpo (as far as I know) as of August 10th (Monday). AF was either due the 10th or the 11th according to different apps I've had.

I had what I can only think of being implantation spotting at 12 and 13dpo, just a little bit of pink blood on the tissue when I wiped.

I tested This morning (August 10th) and got BFN. I tested in the evening as well but think the test might have been defective because the test line seemed very far from the control line and was grey when I changed the color.

All that being said, how many ladies have still gotten their BFP even after 14dpo?

I've experience in the past week....

Heartburn, body aches, hot flashes, insomnia, +&-appetite, veins appearing all over my body, heavy and full boobs, SUPER bad ovulation pains, light cramping in the V area of my pelvis, and just plain exhaustion. I've probably had more but that's all I can think of right now.

Any input would be amazing! Thanks in advance ladies!

Hmmm I'd think 12 and especially 13 dpo would be very late for IB and would more likely be AF making her appearance known. Every time I've had spotting around 11 dpo and onwards, it's been AF about to arrive. But of course it's probably not impossible. I'd be a bit careful with reading into symptoms. I've often experienced symptoms during my 2WWs without being pregnant. PMS and pregnancy symptoms are often very similar in the 2WW and most first really experience actual pregnancy symptoms later on.

My advice would be try a FRER if you have them and otherwise just wait around 1 week and AF hasn't arrived, try taking a HPT again since I've heard of people first testing positive about 1 week after AF was late. I'd say if it's negative by that point, you most likely aren't pregnant. But you could consider getting a blood test at your GPs to make sure by that point?

Good luck
