SURE I'm pregnant but BFN?! Help please.

I am 12dpo. I got a BFN using my clear blue advanced fertility monitor. I also got a BFN on a clear blue 5 days early test. I'm apparently not due till sat/sun.

HOWEVER: My boobs are absolutely killing me, and have done for around a week now. I do get sore boobs before AF, but never this sore. They feel different and heavy. Anyway, I was really shocked by the BFN on the clear blue advanced monitor as I was convinced. ALSO... The pregnancy stick from the test I stuck in the machine had TWO lines. I know they say not to read the lines. But what does this mean?! Doc said you would be getting a BFP if you are experiencing symptoms, is this true? Do I just give up? I'm going mad. Is it too early? Anyone with any experience of the Clear blue fer monitor and the preg sticks?

I've been sitting here crying for most of the day as I really thought it was my month.

Thank you so much !

In all 3 of my pregnancies I didn't get a BFP until after my period was due, even with fmu and super sensitive tests.

If you can bear it, leave it for a few days and just use a straightforward pee stick.

Hope it goes your way x

I can't help withy hr CH monitor aspect but if it's different from a normal HPT, then have you tried one of those?

If you're not due till the weekend it's still really early days and if you're pregnant you'll still be pregnant then.

I've never had a bfp before 14 DPO and twice had BFNs at 12DPO to then get a BFP two days later. The internet is awash with people apparently getting strong positives at 8DPO but I've never met someone in real life that happened to.

I know it's shit and emotional and frustrating and exhausting and crap. The truth is that you could be pregnant and you're not out till you get your period, if it does show.

Most people would secretly admit there have been times they were absolutely sure and then af arrived, I've been there. Hormones of all kinds are a bitch. But if you have a feeling you might be right!

You can keep testing till af shows, try and only do one a day with fmu then you'll know there was nothing else you could have done.

Good luck Smile

Try fmu with a first response early response test?

With the fertility monitor you need it turned on and the test stick in the monitor before the pee reaches the test window otherwise it shows bfn ime.

Good luck I hope you get your bfp.
