AF late but 2 BFN?

43 replies

Rollerball84 · 07/08/2018 18:52

I feel as though I’m loosing my mind! Did the deed on the last day of my period and the following day now period is late this month. I’ve tested twice and both BFN. I’m not a regular charter of my cycles but I know they’re usually in and around 28-30 days. I’m now 2 days late, no usual pms symptoms and had a little cramping yesterday morning but felt different to period cramps? Can anyone tell me if they or others have gone through this and got their BFP? Slim chance I know with doing the deed so close after period ending. Thank you in advance Smile

Hi @user122. My bloods didn’t come back on the Friday so I had to wait until Monday however I ended up in A&E on the Sunday morning having a miscarriage. When my gp called me with the results on Monday before I could tell her what had happened the previous day she said my hcg levels were very low and she suspected a miscarriage was imminent. I’m just taking time for myself now and won’t be ttc for another while. All of it really took the wind out of me and I was absolutely devastated. But I’ve been pregnant and given birth once before it will happen again.

Had my app with GP again this morning. Another negative test so she took bloods and they will be back tomorrow afternoon. I also have a kidney infection but she said that wouldn’t affect the delay in AF. So tomorrow is D Day, one way or another. If bloods are negative also she is referring me for an ultrasound to find out what is going on. CD39 today.

I guess she was convinced because I’m having multiple symptoms which are, as the days go on, getting worse. I did also ask her about DTD so close after my period had finished and she said there was still a chance there. We literally only started TTC so I have not charted anything whatsoever. I only posted to see if by any chance anyone else been in the same situation as me or similar. I know basic biology, I know how it all works. I will update whether AF arrives or I do eventually get my BFN. Thanks.

If you only DTD 1 & 2 days after your last period you're not pregnant. Your period can be late for a whole hosts of reasons. Even if you're 'regular' it's not unheard of to completely skip a period some times. Sorry OP, I don't want to sound harsh but basic biology tells you that the chances of you being pregnant are slim to none. If you're actively TTC timing is everything! Not sure why your GP was so convinced you were pregnant Hmm good luck...

Well... it's not over till the bi-atch arrives! Best of luck!

Tests are still negative, clearblue digital on Saturday morning ‘not pregnant’. Still no AF, so sick every morning when I wake up, boobs are killing me. I don’t know what to be thinking at all!

Have you done any more tests? What about the ones with the word 'pregnant' rather than the line?

Wow that’s amazing! Delighted your have your little bundle now after all that testing! 2 weeks is just pure torture, how did you do it? 😂 I’m keeping everything crossed x

Hi Rollerball84 i don't want to build up your hopes but this happened to me and I'm sitting here with my little baby now 😊.

After a year of trying and with a fairly regular cycle, I missed my period, and got a BFN. I tested again the next day, and the next, and again and again for over 2 weeks (pure torture)- BFNs every day, but still no period.

I booked an appointment with the GP, but that very morning on the 17th day late I got my BFP myself!! I went to the GP anyway to confirm... the bloodtest said my HCG levels were very low to be that many weeks so be prepared to miscarry. I had miscarried previously so was devastated.

Anyway turns out it was just a slow burner (or something) -quite unusual- but 9 months later my gorgeous little baby was born! She went 2 wks over (induced at 42 wks) which may or may not have been related to the initial 2 wks of BFNs. Wishing you all the best!!

TokenGinger · 11/08/2018 13:14

Fingers crossed for you Roller, I really hope it’s a positive outcome Flowers

Ah this is just cruel! 😂 I’ll test again in the morning and see if the line is darker!

It's so hard to know the difference! I did a clear blue when I was pregnant and there was the faintest of lines, everyone I showed told me it was an evap but then a week or so later I got a definite positive... really hope it's your BFP🤞🏼 x

@TokenGinger I’m seven days late, CD 34 today. It’s worth hanging on a few more days but I know the wait is absolutely dreadful. GP yesterday said that my levels obviously aren’t high enough to come up on a test but by what this test this morning tells me, well I hope anyway, is that they are starting to rise.

@firsttime17 Indknt know the difference between evap line and BFP? I thought the line was too narrow but then everyone says a line is a line? Don’t know what to be thinking! Hmm

Good luck, Roller.

I’m new around here so I don’t have a clue what all of the acronyms mean but I’m in a similar position to you. I’m now 8 days late for my period but have had 4 negative tests. It’s either my HCG levels are not high enough or I haven’t ovulated this month for some reason. I’ve never been late on a period! It’s driving me mental x

firsttime17 · 11/08/2018 11:13

Ooooh I definitely see a line! Fingers crossed x

That’s fantastic, I’m thrilled for you! Half way there now, hopefully the next half goes quickly for you!

Not yet. After 20 cycles we got a bfp but miscarried at 7 weeks. We conceived again 5 cycles later and I'm currently 20 weeks. By the time the baby is born it'll be 3 years since we started ttc, so not the easiest journey, but thankful all now seems fine.

Just to add...she did say a lot of women’s hcg takes a while to build up to show in a test so who knows, I might be one of the lucky ones! Have you gone on to give birth @SoozC
