11DPO and still getting BFN :( is there still a chance this cycle?

I’ve been testing since 8DPO and have had consistent BFN and a couple of evap lines. Since we BD I’ve had consistent cramping - particularly bad around the time implantation would be happening but I’m worried I’m looking for symptoms! Has anyone else got their BFP after 11DPO? I feel like I’m going mad!

Hey @halfpenny28 how are you feeling?

I didnt test again I am just going to try this month but change my strategy because clearly my cycle has changed meaning we missed it this month.

So dtd every other day from my period ending

I really hope it happens this month. It's so upsetting xxx

Hi @rosie990 🙂 feeling alright this month.

Confident we caught ovulation properly but trying to just relax this month and not keep track of dpo (LOL)

AF is due next weekend so going to wait and see if she shows up and it's fairly regular .

Just really hopeful this is our month 🙋🏼‍♀️ how're you feeling?

Hope it's ok to jump on this post!

Hi all,

I stopped taking my birth control pill early January and got my 1st period exactly 28 days later. It lasted for 5 days 1 day break then 3 days spotting. I am using the clue app and tracked my ovulation that way and we DTD several times around the dates. My period was due 7th March. Had brown spotting on March 1st very briefly and March 2nd even briefer. Then spotted on March 4th. All these times were literally one wipe and then nothing. It is now the 9th and period was due on 7th. Nothing. Have had a cough, sore throat and ear ache for past week. Moods have been up and down and feel nauseated on and off throughout the day. Still tested this morning and BFN. Would be nice to talk to someone through this as driving myself crazy..I have 2 little ones already and with my daughter I got my BFP after 2 BFN tests. Good luck to all xx

rosie990 · 13/03/2020 12:07

@halfpenny28 fingers crossed for you this month. How are you feeling any signs yet. When are you going to test?

I am due next week friday latest so fingers crossed

@pix2 how are you now? I had a really early spotting light period last month.fi gets crossed this is a good sign for you

Xx

Pix2 · 13/03/2020 12:59

@rosie990 now 6 days late still no sign of AF
Have had really bad lower back ache all week now and terrible acne. Still BFN. Not sure what to think.

rosie990 · 15/03/2020 06:50

@pix2 stay calm and test in a few days.

It's hard when you havent long come off your pill I know my period was fluctuating from 33 to 38 days so I never knew where I was at. Tbh my last cycle was 30 days so unsure where I am at again this month.

Just relax and fingers crossed for you.

@halfpenny28 any news or signs? Xx

MrsHP2018 · 15/03/2020 07:54

Hi @HalfPenny28
How are you getting on? I found out I was pregnant using an a clearblue digital ovulation test... Got a big smiley face so sent oh to get a test and got our BFP! So it is possible to find out through the opk sticks. Hope you've got a positive result x

@rosie990 hi lovely. I did a cheap internet test today and got a BFN. Af is due in 4 days so it should show by now I reckon so a bit gutted. No symptoms just soreish boobs but get those before af anyway I think. Had a little cramping last week but nothing major.

Going into our 7th cycle now and just didn't think it would take this long but doing my best to stay positive. Tempted to see the GP to make sure everything is okay.

How're you?

Hi halfpenny28, I’ve been reading your story and can totally relate. I have been driving myself made doing all the ovulation tests and bbt, I have been trying now for 4 months with my current partner, my story is a little different as I already have 2 children with my last partner but he wasn’t a very nice man and I would love to experience this in a loving relationship. I am an older lady so things would be a bit difficult for me. I am In the process of tests being done but according to ovulation tests and bbt everything is looking good. When I read your posts it was like I was writing it 😂 I am now 11dpo and I’m getting bfn ☹️ My af is due in two days 🤪 I think I’ve spent a fortune in pregnancy tests x how you getting on ?

rosie990 · 16/03/2020 06:53

@halfpenny28 and @heeley fingers crossed for you both.

I took a test yesterday and it was negative. It's not cycle day 30and period is due by Friday. I just feel so disheartened that it isnt happening and what are we doing wrong.

Partner wants to stop all tablets and just try naturally but he is thinking the issue is with him because I have my son. I just dont know what to do.

Trying to not let this consume me but i feel it is xx

Pix2 · 16/03/2020 13:10

9 days late today. Took this 90 mins ago so not fmu but sure I can see a line, appeared after 2 mins of taking test. But just took another and showing bfn. No sign of AF at all. Just resigned my self to missing this period until this.. any thoughts? X

11DPO and still getting BFN :( is there still a chance this cycle?
Heeley · 16/03/2020 18:49

Thanks @rosie990, I wasn’t due my af till wed and It came today, quite heavy and very painful 😖. My progesterone tests came back today and shows I did ovulate last cycle, so not sure if that’s the case, why we can’t get a BFP, my DH needs to do his test to see if everything I ok with him. My head feels quite battered with it all and last night I just burst into tears, which is not like me, my DH was very sweet and just gave me a cuddle and said not matter what, we have each other 🥰 I know he’s right but I really would love this for us. Anyway new cycle so let’s see what’s happens. How are you all getting on. Sorry for my rambling lol

@rosie990 AF showed up today so I'm out 🙄😔 onto cycle 7 I suppose...

OP posts:
rosie990 · 19/03/2020 13:02

@halfpenny28 I am spotting today too so looks like the next cycle for me too.

We are on self isolation due to asthma so I have said to my partner that although we are concerned and worried I am not going to stop trying xx

HalfPenny28 · 27/03/2020 21:18

@rosie990 hi lovely. How're you getting on? We decided to keep trying too. Don't know if I could actually stop at this point.

I'm due to ovulate on Tuesday but decided to stop using opks and things this month to try and help me relax a bit.

Tried everything else and it's not worked so!

When are you due to ovulate? X

OP posts:
rosie990 · 05/04/2020 06:51

Hi @HalfPenny28 sorry for the delay. The app was playing up an not showing me conversations I had been on.

How are you keeping? Did you ovulate??

I am due to ovulate any day up to Thursday but I have had cramps for a few days so maybe I ovulated early. Only time will tell.

HalfPenny28 · 10/04/2020 09:09

@rosie990 hey lovely :) that's okay! I know my apps been a bit weird lately!

Well I tested today at 10dpo and got a bfn so think I'm out this cycle. Next cycle will be our 8th and it's just so disheartening.

Did you ovulate in the end? How's the TWW going? Xx

OP posts:
rosie990 · 11/04/2020 07:12

Hey @halfpenny28 I am sorry to hear that. However, it's still early isnt it. Some people say dint bother until atleast 12dpo. So I will keep my fingers crossed for you.
8 cycles is an ok length of time.you got this and hopefully you are relaxing in isolation which should take some stress away and make your journey easier.

I ignored my calender which says I ovulated yesterday because I clearly had ovulation signs back end of last week until about tuesday. I have had sore bbs ever since but I am scared of being disheartened again

If this doesnt work for us we will be on our 8th cycle too :-( xx

@rosie990 I know, but I jut don't feel pregnant - Not that id know! 😂 I'll wait and see but I think I'm out this month.

Did you use opk's to check ovulation? I keep wondering if I'm missing it! I use the clear blue digi ovulation tests and I get the static but who knows!

I know, 8 months isn't really that long in the great scheme of things but I'd just like to know it will actually happen if you know what I mean.

So is af due for you next week? Hope you're okay 🥰 xx

OP posts:
rosie990 · 11/04/2020 19:26

@halfpenny28 I will keep my fingers crossed for you my lovely

I have a 34 day period and I ovulate on day 20 according to my app I didnt do any ovulation tests etc but on day 16 I had a lot of fertile cm and cramps so I think I I ovulated earlier than expected

My period based on a 34 day cycle is due a week on Wednesday.

I am just going to see how it goes and if not keep going.

I have need fusion soft cups and lube since our chat awhile ago. Have you? Xxx

rosie990 · 14/04/2020 20:18

Keeping my fingers crossed for you @halfpenny28 xx

HalfPenny28 · 15/04/2020 08:16

Thanks @rosie990 🥰 af is due today, no sign yet but pretty sure it'll turn up today or tomorrow as still getting BFN.

I never ended up using the soft cup thing! Struggled actually getting it in 🤦🏼‍♀️ and we switched to conceive plus as found the applicator things a litter easier to use!

Still taking my folic acid and just started taking evening primrose oil in the last couple of days so we'll see!

How you feeling about this cycle? Xx
