9dpo and negative test

239 replies

Marshmallow1992 · 02/10/2018 19:58

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

@emma88P I can't really remember what symptoms I was having with my first pregnancy except sore breasts, that was the earliest thing I found strange, mainly because I wouldn't have them sore before my period as I do now since I've taken my Mirena out. But otherwise I don't remember anything suspicious, because the pregnancy wasn't planned so I wasn't really watching myself much. I also got pregnant even though I used the morning after pill so really wasn't counting on pregnancy that time hahaha. It was our first and only unprotected sex and I used the pill...but still got pregnant lol Wish it was that easy all the time. 🤩

Hi everyone! I have literally just read all of your thread over the past week. It was an emotional rollercoaster just as a reader! Lol! Gutted none of you have got your results yet either, been trying for 3 months and currently am 3 days past ovulation. Using Clearblue ovulation kit. Have a shorter cycle than normal 23/24 days so waiting until 15th Oct. baby dust to all x

MrsMcNtobe · 08/10/2018 20:43

@emma88P this will be my first so I’m new to all this 😂 I really have no idea if I always have the aches and pains before AF or if I’m imagining these because I’m paying more attention to my body

emma88P · 08/10/2018 20:29

@MrsMcNtobe no other symptons other than massive boobs, but their usually sore at this stage of my cycle. I dont want to read into symptoms too much but ive had more bloating than usual this month, staying positive, but trying to be realistic, its killing me.

What about u ladies any symptoms lead to pregnancy previously? With my last preg i didnt test til i was 4 days late, i had so much moreself control then! 😂

MrsMcNtobe · 08/10/2018 20:03

@emma88P fx for you chick! I’m pure dreading this full week cos I don’t know if AF is coming or not! Have you had any more symptoms?

emma88P · 08/10/2018 19:51

Still neg 12dpo! Flo due tomorrow so fx it doesnt come, im nearly afraid to pee for fear i see my flo! Oh i hope one of us get good news soon!!!

MrsMcNtobe · 08/10/2018 19:12

@Martina2311 I feel the same. Used my FRER - still nothing Sad because I’ve got the cheap tests I wake up and the first thing I think is TEST NOW but I’d like to take a wee break too. Have you read about the SMEP plan? I might try that next month but might skip OPKs I think I’m becoming too obsessed.

It’s weird how we’re all around the same day PO yet none of us have had a BFN maybe we really are just too early 😂

Martina2311 · 08/10/2018 18:52

@MrsMcNtobe Hey! I know what you mean. That's what I feel like...just wasting the tests one after another. I've ordered another pack of FRERs but I said to myself that if AF doesn't arrive, I will have a 2 day break with testing because it's just too frustrating and disappointing. To be honest I'll be even relieved when AF arrives, just for the sake of knowing the answer and moving on so I can focus on next cycle. 😑

MrsMcNtobe · 08/10/2018 12:10

@Martina2311 hey! I’m so emotional today. My cheap amazon tests are completely white not even a slight second like. AF not due for another couple of days. Still occasional pain/sicky feeling and yesterday I had a dodgy stomach. I’m just so over this month. I 100% don’t think I’m pregnant Sad technically still not out but thought a test would have shown something by now. 1 FRER but I don’t want to waste it

Martina2311 · 08/10/2018 10:26

How are you feeling @MrsMcNtobe? My AF is due today (nothing so far) and I dont feel like its coming at all. But FRER still negative from FMU today. I am still hoping my hcg hasnt built up yet but then again worried if that would mean something bad? Since I'm testing with Frer and hasnt got even the smallest amount of hcg to be detected yet. I know there are woman out there who had the same situation but this is just...So frustrating. I just wanna know either way.

Martina2311 · 08/10/2018 10:20

@JillieHunter Wait as long as you can :) With FRER you may get a result before your AF is due..so you can maybe start over the weekend. But dont be dissapointed if it comes negative as it all depends if your body has managed to build up enough hcg for the test to be able to detect. FRER is one of the most reliable ones apparently but at the same time, there are many woman who didnt get their BFPs even with those until after their AF was due. So it really depends. Sorry if the answer is not too helpful :/ Good luck x

JillieHunter · 08/10/2018 09:32

Hey girls I’m not due on until next Wednesday when do you think I should test x

MrsMcNtobe · 07/10/2018 13:02

@Martina2311 i’m the same I expected at least some sort of line even just the faintest wee thing but there’s literally nothing even if I look at it from different angles there’s nothing 😂 i’m wondering if I ovulated later than I thought even though I got a static smiley on the clear blue test.. who knows. I might not plan so much next month and see what happens (probably will plan 😂)

Martina2311 · 07/10/2018 12:59

Thank you @MrsMcNtobe thats very reassuring to read! I've been googling the same this morning. Its good to read that there are woman out there who had this late positives. I guess its just me having doubts as I had these expectations from FRER. 😕

MrsMcNtobe · 07/10/2018 12:36

Hey girls I’ve been reading a bit this morning - here’s a good link showing people that have had BFPs later..

9dpo and negative test
Martina2311 · 07/10/2018 09:21

Hi girls, also a little update from me. AF due tomorrow, all tests including today's FU are negative with FRER. I had my hopes up especially because my breasts are still not hurting as usually before my period and I get night sweats the 2-3 nights before too...nothing this month. It was always really reliable sign. Dont know what's different this month. Also my lower back last week hurting a lot during the time I could have a potential implantation. Also feeling nauseous when hungry. But I'm 12 DPO today and feel like with FRER I should by now have at least a faint one. Slowly loosing my optimism. :/
Like you said, feel like my body is changing and tricking me so much since I know it is possible. I really dont know what to think anymore.

Chanel05 · 07/10/2018 09:14
