12 or 13 DPO - AF due yesterday and still no sign - but BFN

Hi, hoping to get some advice -
I was due on 1/2days ago and I believe I'm 12/13 DPO (used clearblue ovulation and the cheaper ovulation tests so I tracked), AF is usually like clockwork and no sign at all - I 'feel different' and have slight back ache but otherwise no symptoms, I don't know if that's my mind playing tricks on me!! Has anyone had a BFP after BFN a few days into missed period?
I'm wasting so many tests but so eager to know - fiance has told me to wait until Tuesday to test if AF doesn't show but it's driving me insane!
Thank you!

Tbh if you had a squinter, you still need to wait to see if it gets stronger so I agree take a test when you are officially late, some people on this forum have had negs and had a bfp after AF is due, so as many say, your not out until AF shows up, try not to worry too much about it

Thank you for your response! Tonight I've had a tiny tiny amount of 'spotting' so I'm unsure if this is AF showing up or if this is implantation bleeding(?!) - I usually get cramping and really moody before AF and I've not had that.... but not holding out too much hope incase!

I agree about waiting until Tuesday, I used so many pregnancy tests and only got a bfp on DPO14.

Ah really, yeah I'm going to see what this bleeding does over next couple of days and then if still light I'll take a tear on Tuesday! Wasting so many tests at the moment and just need to be patient! 😫 thank you.

I'm due AF on thurs, have had zero symptoms except 30mins of AF type cramps yesterday. Feel narky as I do normally before AF turns up, it's hard to know what's going on inside our bodies *sigh xx

It's so frustrating isn't it @Ylladyoll, I'm still getting a tiny bit of spotting this morning and have woken up feeling like I'm getting a cold, few spots and feeling a bit sick so I'm keeping fingers crossed it's not AF! But will see! In all honesty this is our first month TTC so I'm not holding on to it - but its hard not to symptom spot everything!

How many months have you guys been trying?

Thanks for your responses! 😊

Since October x I'm trying not to get any hopes up as it soul destroying when AF arrives xx

Hi, in a similar position. Had very light spotting for two days (only when I wipe) and AF was due two days ago. But definitely not AF and blood not increasing or red (it’s pink).
I also had this spotting with my last pregnancy which sadly ended in a MC. Tested with clearblue this morning and was a BFN 🤷🏻‍♀️🤔 guess I should wait a few more days?

AdriannaP · 03/02/2020 10:40

To add with my last pregnancy I tested BFN with Sainsburys test and BFP with FRER. Unfortunately that pregnancy ended in a miscarriage.

Hey, sorry to hear about your miscarriages girls 😔 I came on today so not our month unfortunatly - this is the first month TTC so not too disheartened but still frustrating when you do everything they 'tell you too' such as tracking ovulation etc but there's always next month!

@AdriannaP hope you get a positive in the next few days! Fingers crossed for you! 😊 keep us updated!

@emma4282 did you ever get your BFP?

tossacoin1 · 27/02/2020 17:10

@emma4282 sorry didn't mean to write that, please ignore
