What's the latest you've ever got a BFP, having previously had BFN?

I'm at the end of my TWW and tested yesterday at 10 dpo but got BFN :( now thinking I might be out for this month but trying to stay positive (excuse the pun!) and avoid testing again until AF is due on Sunday. Hoping for some stories of BFPs coming later after BFN at or around 10DPO- anyone?

I should add that I am not in the UK, so it's Friday today and I'm on 11dpo.

I got a faint-but-definitely-there BFP at around 13 DPO having previously had a very definite BFN at around 10 DPO. I say around because my periods at the time were very irregular but I think I ovulated around 14th December and got BFN on 24th but BFP on 27th. He's 16 months now Grin

Good luck. The tww is awful and I drove myself mad for a year and spent a fortunate on pregnancy tests until it finally happened.

4 days after AF was due I got a BFN. 6 days after AF was due I finally got my BFP. Wasn't a particularly strong line either! DS is now 2yo.

Thanks both :) wow shmith that's a late BFP!

Secret, you're not out until AF is in! Good luck 🍀

Thanks shmith Flowers

Anyone else got any late BFP stories for me? :)

@Secretlifeofme I didn't get a bfp last time until af was a week late! (Could be due to it being ectopic) I could've just ovulated late though

DaisyMay25 · 04/01/2018 20:39

@Secretlifeofme even then the line was a faint one, there's still hope!

Secretlifeofme · 04/01/2018 20:45

Thank you Daisy Flowers

I've only ever had a bfp on the day my period was due, and even then always v faint.

Secretlifeofme · 05/01/2018 13:32

Thanks isambardo, that's very encouraging x

No problem. Should have said I have 2dc and have had 2 losses so lots of practise peeing on sticks (and lots of tests wasted trying even though I knew it was too early!)

Will keep my fingers crossed for you, let us know how you get on x

UnitedKungdom · 05/01/2018 14:22

If you get a bfp after your AF was due, it most likely means you ovulated late as luteal phases are consistent. So you need to take that into account when figuring out if you DTD around the right timing.

In terms of a normal cycle, I got bfn on 10dpo but bfp on 11dpo on my second baby I think it was. I've never tested till AF was late otherwise.

Littlemisssugarplum88 · 05/01/2018 17:45

I think you're still quite early testing, hopefully you'll soon see a BFP.
I'm cd 37 today; my cycles are normally 31 days and I've only ever been a day either side of this. BFN yesterday...I don't know what's going on 😭xx

user7654321 · 05/01/2018 17:54

I’m currently 7DPO, and got a BFN today obviously! Stupid of me to test I know. Gonna try again Monday at 10DPO and will let you know!

peterpanwendy · 05/01/2018 21:55

I didn't get a BFP until I was 13 days late! I was so worried something was wrong but doctors/midwifes have since said that it's perfectly normal to have to wait a while for your HCG levels to rise :) fingers crossed for you!

Secretlifeofme · 05/01/2018 21:58

Thank you all for being so reassuring :) I am going to wait until Sunday when AF is due to test again. I'll keep you updated!

Just to update, I had pink on the loo roll when I wiped this morning, so I think I have my answer! Thanks for your support everyone Flowers

Secretlifeofme · 07/01/2018 04:45
