10dpo - symptoms but bfn

136 replies

victoria5895 · 05/01/2021 21:27

Hi, I’m hoping to get some advice on symptoms. From around 5dpo to 9dpo (today)
I’ve had these symptoms:
Nausea (To the point of dry heaving)
Dizziness
Very sore boobs
Overly sensitive nipples
Fatigue (very intense today!)
EWCM at CD18 (day after predicted OV)
Creamy CM from CD21-24 (today)

I’m now convinced that I’m pregnant
My af is due on the 11th, I’ve been testing every morning since 7dpo with internet cheapies and not even the slightest line is appearing.

My OH and I haven’t been actively trying, but would be a lovely surprise - I was so disappointed at the bfn at 8dpo that I had to tell him, he has now started online research and is so excited. It’s so disappointing so I’m hoping you could share some stories of early bfn turning to bfp

Hey, can I join? I'm going nuts over here. We've been TTC #1 for 3 months ish. AF due tomorrow and I've had no PMS symptoms all week. Usually I'd get heavy cramps about a week in advance but just really light pains which fade quickly, some light lower back pain and a strange pulling sensation which has now gone. I took a test this morning which was FR Rapid Results but I think it was a fake! It didn't look at all the same as ones I've seen online and Amazon have now refunded. It was BFN though so not sure what to think. Also had a wild sense of smell and going for a wee every 45 mins and exhausted every evening, sleeping 10hrs+. I know symptoms are often exactly the same as PMS but ah, can't take this!! Any advice?

AF came early for me guys Sad. Just going to keep positive and keep trying. Your support has been amazing. Good luck ladies, I hope you all have better news than me x

2021please · 10/01/2021 16:48

What does everyone think? Tried this morning with FMU (4 part picture with 2 negatives) but the line didnt show until 4 minutes, pictures taken between 4-7 minutes.

second pic is of SMU, held my wee in for 5 hours and tried again and the line came up immediately but it is really faint. Irl its a lot more prominent and blue.

@2021please I definitely see a line! How many DPO are you?

TryingForNumberOne · 10/01/2021 17:21

I'm definitely out, started spotting and cramping 2 days ago, and AF has just started two days early! Typical!
Hope all you ladies have better luck and if not then baby dust to you all for next month!

Camzarella · 10/01/2021 17:22

That's definitely looking positive to me @2021please! Congratulations Flowers

Ithinkhedidit · 11/01/2021 07:20

@2021please looks promising!!

No AF (yet) but also bfn. Not surprised! Just hope AF hurries up now so next cycle can begin.

2021please · 11/01/2021 07:25

Thanks guys! I took 2 CB digitals this morning and they're both invalid and came up with the book error, just my luck!

Bfn for me too but no period yet. These have been the strangest two weeks ever!

How is everyone feeling?

Okay, sooo really weird thing happened with my test!!

After 4 mins a positive line appeared - it's was so dark! I called my partner to show him as he came into the room the line started to travel up the test, we were literally watching it move!! Is this an evaporation line??

Ithinkhedidit · 11/01/2021 08:07

AF is here! Feeling strangely positive as this is cd32 for me for the second month running so I feel like things are becoming more regular following a miscarriage last year when my whole cycle went nuts for a bit. I know when I conceived dc1 I had regular 32 day cycles so hoping this means I'll get my bfp at some point this year.

Everything crossed for everyone else waiting for AF or a bfp.

Ithinkhedidit · 11/01/2021 08:12

Ooh do you have a pic?

unicornpower · 11/01/2021 08:18

@victoria5895 Evaps are usually colourless (on a FRER anyway!) If its a dark pink line then I would say thays a positive xxxxx

@Ithinkhedidit no, my phone was in my bedroom. I think I'll start videoing my results now 😂

@unicornpower do you think so? Honestly it was bizarre! I did think it was just the
Dye moving at first but it was a perfect rectangle solid dark colour - but it just kept moving 🤷🏼‍♀️

I have one FRER left, not sure if I should wait until tomorrow morning for fmu?

unicornpower · 11/01/2021 08:32

@victoria5895 I've had a couple of evaps and they we definitely grey in colour and came up around 10mins after testing! How late are you? I found my urine in the afternoon gave stronger positives than in the morning tbh! So you could always try this afternoon after a 4 hour wee hold :)

Also, if you like POAS see if you can get babyplan tests from amazon, they are the same as a FRER but loads cheaper!

@unicornpower my period is due today. So I don't think I'm technically late yet?

Ohh maybe I'll try my FRER at 11.30? I'll keep holding until then.

Thanks for the tip, I'll keep that in mind for next month if this doesn't stick 🤞🏻

@victoria5895 good luck!! Keep us posted?

Hi guys, can I please jump on this thread.
Currently 9dpo done first test this morning BFN of course! Feeling very sick for the last couple of days, couple pulling and twinge like pains in hip area and gassy. AF due Friday and usually extremely bloated by now but have no sign of it turning up yet.
TTC#1 so I'm not 100% what to look for Smile

2021please · 11/01/2021 09:35

My FRER this morning is still faint! I just dont understand anymore, is it worth getting another digital tomorrow or just making a doctors appointment? thats 3 BFP and 2 BFN so far. AF was due today and is showing no signs of coming but I dont think my DPO is accurate

@2021please I'd take that as a positive! Make a drs appt and get it confirmed with bloods maybe?

OP posts:
2021please · 11/01/2021 11:57

Done another FRER with SMU, definitely a darker line!!!

After googling it seems that for some women their SMU is better than their FMU as if its left in the bladder for 6+ hours some womens body will break down the proteins! I had no idea!

Bit of bad news too, I told OH about the results and he apparently isnt on board with it anymore - he didnt think we would manage to conceive so soon apparently and he now feels pressured and 'doesnt like it' :s So thats a big conversation thats due after we finish work

Amijustagrump · 11/01/2021 12:18

@2021please

Congratulations! I'm sorry to hear about your DP, I would be so outraged. Hopefully its just shock and he will regret saying those comments. Are you married??

I am so angry! No we're not married but we've been together 7 years, already have a 6 year old together (he didnt take that pregnancy very well either tbh). I hope its just shock but it was awful to hear!

Amijustagrump · 11/01/2021 14:12

@2021please oh wow! It was a truly awful comment and hopefully you both have a good conversation later and he just was shocked. It amazes me when men don't consider that sex can equal a baby!

unicornpower · 11/01/2021 14:59

@2021please im so sorry your DP reacted like that! I hope your conversation goes okay later on!
