9dpo and negative test

I wondered if anyone else would like to share their experience with me! I am 9dpo and took a test this morning and it was BFN. Is this way too early to test? I see lots of people getting BFP at 9dpo and wondered if there should definitely be even the faintest line? I’m so impatient and the wait is killing me. I tested using the FR 6 days earlier test so really if going by that, I should have shown positive as AF is due on Friday. I’d love to hear other people’s experiences as I feel I can’t really speak to any of my friends as they all conceived first month of trying and wouldn’t understand. We are on our third cycle of TTC and I know this isn’t long at all.
Thanks in advance xx

Hry @MrsMcNtobe!! How are you? I just came here to give you an update on me and realised I didnt get back to you after your last message, sorry!!! How are you getting on? Which CD are you now?

I am 11DPO today and got my first faint BFP yesterday with a much nice one today! My DH doesnt know yet, I am waiting for the line to get much stronger.

Hope you are doing well and things are looking good this month! X

@Martina2311 AF came yesterday! But I’m a little confused now, since TTC I’ve had a 42 day, 28 day and now 25 day cycle.. the first one was when I came off the mini pill but I’m not sure if I should be worrying that this month has been a bit early? I’m probably overreacting!

How are yous OPKs and temps going so far? You’ll probably start to see some lines this week!

Martina2311 · 03/11/2018 00:06

Hey @MrsMcNtobe ! Aaah the wait is so hard right 😐 I know it's not easy, but try to relax a bit more, you are probably stressing yourself too much by getting all those negatives. And don't loose hope. It's still early and if its not this month then it will be soon, but it will come eventually. I know it's easier said than done. In the end, the nature only decides when...We can only stress because we want to be in control and it doesn't work like that. Think about it differently...If it doesn't work this cycle, that means you have more time to get healthier, get more prepared, learn more about your body etc. If you want to try more vitamins, do it...while waiting, prepare your body to welcome the baby in its best shape and conditions. Maybe try to focus on that?
Having said that, I will be probably the same when it's my time to wait 🙈and you will need to tell me the same things haha. My fertile window should start probably in about 9 days. I'm doing my OPK and temps every day now, so hope I won't miss it. I quite enjoy doing that anyways. I think it's really interesting observing all these things about your body.

@Martina2311 hey! Well after being so good with not symptom spotting I’ve went crazy the last 2 days.. 4 cheap tests yesterday and 2 today and absolutely nothing! I’m only 9/10DPO so it really is far too early but I’m driving myself crazy here :( still not many symptoms apart from being snappy and over emotional! I know I’m not out yet but I’ve lost all hope. I’m thinking of trying conceive plus and the seven seas conception tablets next month but I’m also considering just taking a month off from OPKs and stressing!

So glad your AF was short! Do you roughly know when you’re going to ovulate?

Martina2311 · 01/11/2018 20:25

Hi @MrsMcNtobe! Any news? How are you feeling? My AF is officially over...nice and short... I seriously only get about 2 full days of a full flow which is quite light anyways. And spotting one day before and one after. Now it's time to slowly get ready for our fertile window. I'm so excited for this month. I'm taking my OPK every day even tho it's not really needed yet, but I want to see the progress and not miss anything.
Have u got any symptoms of either AF approaching or have you done any more HPT? And don't be silly...I am as much impatient as you are. The money and amount of tests I peed on last month is just embarassing. 😂

MrsMcNtobe · 30/10/2018 14:39

@Martina2311 aww god that sucks I’m sorry :( at least AF has arrived and you can start your next cycle as normal. AF is due on 5th. Took a cheap amazon stick and was thinking I could see the smallest shadow of a 2nd line but I really think I’m imagining it :( far far too early to POAS don’t even know why I did it but I’ll maybe try another after a few days!

Martina2311 · 29/10/2018 13:36

Hey! @MrsMcNtobe It turned out to be a flow.🤦‍♀️ Yesterday I was spotting but today it's my usual AF. So confusing one week after a positive OPK and the temp spike. But then again my cycle has been just messed up in general last month. I just really hope this month will be a bit more settled and back to normal so I can rely on it and estimate my fertile window correctly. Well well...here is to this month's success.
When is your AF due this month? I'm sure that not always you feel symptoms so wouldn't think anything of it. Are you planning on testing less this month?

MrsMcNtobe · 29/10/2018 11:50

@Martina2311 how are you today? Any sign of AF/implantation/whatever it could be 😂

I still don’t have much going on, really really light cramp (next to nothing) a bit emotional and some creamy CM. Apart from that nothing!

ffiffi8 · 28/10/2018 19:17

Picture won't load  I did a frer and the line was pretty strong at 9dpo xx

ffiffi8 · 28/10/2018 19:15

This was mine at 9dpo, surprised it was quite strong for so early as I wasn't due AF for 5 days x

Martina2311 · 28/10/2018 17:51

Hey @MrsMcNtobe so have you started tracking your temps as well or just using OPK?
I am fine, just a little irritated over the day. Got a little on and off pressure in my abdomen but thats about it. The spotting is pretty steady flow, but still light and its very mucusy. Like CM mixed with blood. But then again my periods are not very heavy in general. Its quite confusing, I guess I will have to wait if it stops or not. But just thinking that if I was right with the ovulation day last Monday, then this is very early for AF and would mean my luteal phase is quite short :/ But I mean I've just skipped the whole cycle last month so really don't know what to expect from this month 🙈

MrsMcNtobe · 28/10/2018 17:25

@Martina2311 Hey! I think this could be a good sign of early pregnancy? Especially if you don’t have any cramps or anything. How are you feeling now?

I’m 5DPO and not really anything to report yet! X

Martina2311 · 28/10/2018 12:28

Hi ladies! How is it going?? I've got a a little update from this morning. When checking my cervix and cm, I've found out I'm spotting a bit. It's very light pink colour (sorry for tmi). No cramps...nothing. I've been tracking my temps and using OPK for the last 11 days and last Sunday I had a positive OPK with a temperature spike the next morning so I'm hoping I ovulated. We also BD on Sunday. I am so curious if this is my period starting now...while it would be a bit early in consideration with the positive ovulation test. Or if this could be an implantation spotting!! While that's quite early because I would only be about 6DPO today. I guess I will find out during the day or tomorrow. What do you think??
I literally feel like I have no symptoms at all this month, except my usual breast soreness but that's what I get before my AF.
Hope you are having a great Sunday so far x

emma88P · 24/10/2018 09:53

Fingers crossed for you!

Martina2311 · 22/10/2018 08:19

Hey girls! I am doing my OPK as well now and the second line had been getting darker for the last few days and feel like yesterday was maybe a positive, although I have no clue where in a cycle I am. It's the cheapies One step from Amazon, so not sure how reliable they are. Anyway, we BD just in case too. My BBT was a bit higher this morning as well, but that is probably just me being ill. Well FX to us this month :)

Srwalton1 · 22/10/2018 08:17

I took it apart because I saw a line 😂 high hopes and all that but oh well guess I'll try again next month xx this is one from this morning x

9dpo and negative test
Martina2311 · 22/10/2018 08:13

Hi @Srwalton1 I don't seam to see anything, sorry! Maybe it's better in the real light. Have you taken the test apart? As that usually causes it to make evaporation line and therefore it's invalid.

emma88P · 22/10/2018 07:11

@MrsMcNtobe its so hard to time it right. I know its too early for us but we dtd yesterday just incase. And will tonight again. I havent started opk yet this month. Sending bd to you all xxx

MrsMcNtobe · 21/10/2018 20:57

@Martina2311 that is really strange. Hopefully AF is on the way that could be some symptoms you’re getting!

I just done an OPK both lines were mega dark then clearblue and smiley was static. Haven’t DTD since Thursday so hoping we haven’t missed the window this month!

Srwalton1 · 21/10/2018 20:14

Bfn not beg xx

Srwalton1 · 21/10/2018 20:11

Hi I'm 9dpo took a test I'm sure it's beg but my eyes are playing tricks I thing 😭😭😭😭😭😭

9dpo and negative test
Martina2311 · 21/10/2018 19:22

Hey! @MrsMcNtobe The test for UTI was negative so they asked me to go to GP and request an ultrasound to find out what's causing the pain. It's really strange because today it's not as intense as yesterday so I almost feel like not going to the GP but at the same time the pain has been there on an off for the last week and in the same spot, so I am guessing it would not be there for no reason.
Good thing is my breasts are starting to be slightly sensitive so I am hoping that my flow is finally on its way. Also woke up today with a bit of sore throat and got slightly raised temperature so going to get cosy tonight in front of a tv and hopefully tomorrow will be a better day. X

MrsMcNtobe · 20/10/2018 22:24

@Martina2311 I’m gonna start my OPK tomorrow! I’ve been so so cranky the last few days and I have no idea why! How did you get on at the walk in centre? I wonder if that’s the reason why AF didn’t show? Maybe you’ve had something working on you that’s messed it up?

@emma88P I think I’m gonna be a bit more relaxed too. Last month was so stressful :(!

emma88P · 20/10/2018 22:09

Hey girls! 10 days later im starting my OPK again! 😒 think ill bea bit more relaxed about it this month though. Starting early this month by BD this morning. Hope we can keep it up every other day! 😉

Martina2311 · 20/10/2018 17:24

Hey everyone! Nice to hear from you @MrsMcNtobe :) How is everyone?

I've started measssuring my bbt and taking ovulation tests but I'm not sure when I will be ovulating at all as my period never arrived! On Monday it will be 2 weeks delay. So I am assuming that for some reason I skipped this cycle for some reason 😕 I'm also on my way to a walk in centre to get tested for UTI because I 've been having sharp pain in my right abdominal area when passing a urine..On and off for the last week. So maybe that's related to the delay too, I don't know. Will see what we find out. Hope everyone is good and ready for this month trying! 🤩
