If a test was a bfn Monday....could it be a bfp next Monday?

Hormone levels increase every 48 hours so definitely in a week.
So yes!

wifey6 · 10/11/2011 22:03

Thank you for that....have been going stir crazy all day as symptom are worse but when doctor did a test Monday...bfn. I told her I thought it was too early to test...but my body has been all over the place so even I was confused! Thank you

Try ordering one of those REALLY early ones from Ebay, if you are excited to test then don't worry as they usually arrive next day.
They only cost about two quid for about 5.

wifey6 · 11/11/2011 07:45

Hi ate...I ordered some a few days ago so just waiting for then to arrive! I'm just so impatient & the symptoms have worsened!
Hurry up tests!!

How long before doc did test? I'm so impatient, it's only been 6 days and I'm desperate to test! I've also ordered early tests from ebay, 30 for £2.39 plus £1 postage! Bargain!!! Can't wait til they arrive.
Fingers crossed for you wifey6.

wifey6 · 11/11/2011 10:04

Hi jenn1982...doc did the test Monday...but said for me to test in 5-7 days time (which by my calculations) would work out right. I've ordered 20 early sensitive from eBay for £3.55 including P&P! Than you & good luck to you also! Smile

Just did an early test....bfn! Sad

OP posts:
Jenn1982 · 11/11/2011 13:50

Me too, but only 6 days after possible conception,(I really am ridiculously impatient!!!) so keeping fingers crossed, and cupboard stocked with cheapie tests.
Are you gonna do another one Sunday/Monday?
I'm thinking that as I have another 29 tests, every/every other day until af arrives (or not hopefully) will be my plan for peeing on sticks.
Last pregnancy I think I was at least 3 weeks+ before I got a positive, on cheap (supposedly early testing tests) and expensive tests. My boobs had been immensely sore/painful/untouchable for over a week before I tested positive.

wifey6 · 11/11/2011 14:06

Yeah I think I will. Af due sun/mon. We both sound super-impatient! Let's hope we both get bfp ASAP!

OP posts:
AteAWholePacketOfBiccys · 11/11/2011 15:54

I hope you do. Good luck!

Jenn1982 · 12/11/2011 19:04

I had what may be a little implantation bleed today. Roll on next week to test again!!!! Good luck for tomorrow/monday wifey6.

wifey6 · 12/11/2011 19:29

Thank you...fingers crossed for you too jenn1982. Smile

I hope you got the bfp you wanted (smile)

Jenn1982 · 14/11/2011 16:01

I have had more of possible IB today. Hoping still.
I hope you got the bfp you wanted

Jenn1982 · 14/11/2011 16:02

grrrr keyboard grrr

wifey6 · 14/11/2011 16:29

jenn1982....that's good. No I got a bfn....so now I'm not sure what's going on.. All signs pointed to it. May just be late or my cycle is longer etc! X

can i gatecrash your thread? wifey and jen , hope you get a bfp soon.I am 6 weeks post mc and ttc. i think i ovulated 6 dys ago, positive opk and other little signs, today i had pinky brown spotting so could be start of af or maybe ib (but wont get ahead of myself, not really expecting anything this month). I have ordered 30 opk and 30 early preg tests from ebay and am going to start ttc properly after af, am i supposed to tke any other vits apart from folic acid?

Jenn1982 · 15/11/2011 09:07

Sorry to hear about your mc.
I have just been taking folic acid just in case I get a bfp. Pregnacare do a conception vitamin tablet, a during pregnancy tablet, and I think an postnatal one too.
Until I know for definite, I didn't really want to splash out as we're not ttc, but if I get the bfp I want, then I'll be off to grab some. I took them throughout my 1st pregnancy.
I still have the possible IB, but it's so hard to be sure if it's just something else or not. It's definitely not af, but who knows if it's IB.
I have used one of the cheapie tests I bought pretty much every day since they arrived, even though I shouldn't test until Saturday coming!! All have been bfns, but then like I say, not supposed to test until Saturday. Last pregnancy I think I was 3 weeks before I tested positive too.
I really hope all goes well. Fingers crossed for you.

wifey6 · 15/11/2011 16:43

frazzled74....so sorry to hear of your mc.... Fingers crossed you get a bfp very soon. I took Folic acid about 2 months before ttc & for the recommended time it states when pregnant. Let's hope we all get bfps very soon! Smile

Jenn1982 · 16/11/2011 07:43

Well, poss ib continues. I've done a lot of reading up on it, (well, on others' experiences of it), and it seems not many people get a bfp until a few days after their ib stops. So, I guess I'm waiting until then. Hoping today will be the last of it, as although Saturday there was a little, there was none sunday, but this is day 3 of consecutive bleed.
I'm still ridiculously impatient, and all this waiting is driving me MAD!!!!!! Angry

wifey6 · 16/11/2011 08:21

Let's hope so jenn1982!

OP posts:
wifey6 · 18/11/2011 15:26

Soooo.....still nothing....my body is playing games with me! No AF...bfn yesterday... Stomach pains started just now! Grrrr!

OP posts:
Jenn1982 · 18/11/2011 15:43

:(
Oh dear. Are you using the 10ui/l tests?
My bleeding is still ongoing, although I'm hoping today is the last day of it( I think it is), coz the more I read up on it, the more I want an answer!
How late is af now for you wifey6? What kind of stomach pains? I still have my fingers crossed for you.

wifey6 · 18/11/2011 15:46

Yes I am...the early pregnancy sticks. AF was due Sunday/Monday. The pains are a bit sharp. It's probably the start of AfSad
Fingers crossed for you... When can you test?

OP posts:
Jenn1982 · 18/11/2011 16:23

Not really until after the bleeding has stopped. Af not due by my reckoning for over a week coz of my bizarre cycle.
