Is there hope or am I kidding myself?

[Smoby]

Hi

I need some advice and hoping someone can help! Got positive opks on 23 and 24th August making me 13/14 dpo today. AF was due yesterday and I woke up with hideous period type pain which lasted all day. It was so bad that I contemplated taking pain killers and using a hot water bottle (so definitely wasn’t imagining them). I kept thinking that I was going to come on, running to the toilet a lot to check. To my surprise I woke up this morning and the pain was gone but no period.

My period is therefore officially a day late so got excited to do a test and surprise surprise BFN!!

I always have a 12 day luteal phase (been tracking for a year) and the opks did indicate that I ovulated.

Could I still be in with a shout for a late bfp or am I kidding myself? I’m holding on to hope that the pains yesterday may have been implantation pain but it would seem very late.

Any advice/opinions greatly received!

Anyone?

Could still be I for a chance if you ovulated late... best of luck to you.

They say you can ovulate your to 48 hours after your positive OPk so unless you ovulated slightly later? Xxx

I had strong AF pains after my BFP and around time AF was due im currently 5w6days x

Which test did you use?
Try first response

Both of my pregnancies I've experience cramping and literally one spot of blood 4-5 days before my period. According to everything I've searched it's too late for implantation pain/bleeding but it's been the same both times. Don't lose hope yet!

Thanks everyone for your replies encouraging PMA. I used a first response this morning, so I do know it's unlikely! However I guess I'm not out until AF shows!

Good luck, keep us updated!
