14 dpo bfn is there still hope ?

ramdom · 28/08/2024 22:56

Hi all , I hope someone can give me a little bit more insight and baby dust

I am currently 14 dpo I tested this morning and got a bfn

At 6dpo I had severe sharp twangs and stabbing pain on and off in the same spot in my right side near my groin area

Since 6dpo I've had cramping which died down and I get the occasional ache and cramp daily on and off
I have been more tired and less motivated
My boobs have been tender to touch I felt like a sudden pain in the right boob quickly
And today my left boob felt itchy

Af was due today but hasn't arrived

Am I out or is there still some hope of a bfp in the next few days ?

I hope to hear soon 🥺🥺 xx

I'm going to test tomorrow ,, I'll be 6 days late and I'll be on cycle day 39 I'll use my first pee in the morning and hope for the best

I did test this afternoon I am 5 days late and was bfn it messed up my whole afternoon and evening tonight
The test did say use first morning urine so I'll hope for the best tomorrow morning instead

I just hope I get a bfp tomorrow or im going to just feel so hopeless and confused
This is the longest cycle I've had im sure im pregnant
I've had cramps since I felt implantation sharp digs on 6dpo predicted

Tomorrow I'll be predicted 19dpo

I just am just totally all over the place in my head about all this it's awful

Awh I really really hope you get a positive result tomorrow!! Keep me updated!

I couldn’t resist today and took a digital clear blue…bfn 🙈 I used it around lunch time so not my first pee either but just feel like my period is 2 days late now so surely it should show up by now??

Not sight nor sound of AF yet though but I am assuming that’s me out this cycle just wish my period would start now. My cycles are always very predictable 28 days so I’m very confused now, particularly with the bleeding that I had presumed was implantation 🥹

really hope you get your positive tomorrow 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Annie119 · 01/09/2024 21:16

Just pink not bright blood at all so that made me so hopeful but with my previous pregnancy I tested positive about 3 days before AF was due.

i know I shouldn’t compare but hard not to. Baby dust to us both 🥹

I think it's cause we both tested in afternoon

Hopefully morning urine works better for us both

We are not out until af shows

I'll keep you updated
When are you going to test again ? X

You can just skip periods - it happened to me a couple of times when I was ttc.

heartheart89 · 02/09/2024 22:26

Fingers crossed for you! However have you considered the cramps you felt at 6/7 dpo could have been you actually ovulating? Especially since no sign of period yet? X

ramdom · 02/09/2024 23:13

So predicted ovulation was 14/08/2024

Implantation sharp digging on right side on pelvis predicted 6dpo 20/08/2024

Intercourse dates

14/08/2024
16/08/2024
17/08/2024
20/08/2024
23/08/2024
27/08/2024
28/08/2024
30/08/2024
31/08/2024
02/09/2024

So even if the pain on 20/08/2024 was ovulation I still had intercourse on that day

I'm on cycle day 39 tomorrow 6 days late
I'm hoping morning pee can give me at least a faint positive
Or I'm going to feel like I'm out this Month
I'm in such limbo right now

TheShellBeach · 02/09/2024 23:17

At 5 days late you'd have an obvious line, even with pm urine, OP.

MocktailMe · 03/09/2024 02:09

If your period is late and your test is negative then it is certain you ovulated later than usual. It doesn't mean you are pregnant though, just that you can't be 14dpo. (Unless your luteal phase is more than 14 days). Luteal phases stay the same length of time, but ovulation can move.

ramdom · 03/09/2024 09:05

I tested this morning , BFN ...
I don't know what else to say anymore

Maybe I'm out
Or ovulated later than I thought and not enough hcg

I have given up hope and will just wait for my period to arrive tomorrow is 7 days late

And I just am not feeling good right now this whole thing is messing and playing with my head

sel2223 · 03/09/2024 09:08

Story to hear that OP. The uncertainty is the worst.

Maybe you ovulated late like you said but also it's possible you have just skipped a period. This is something that happens to a lot of us from time to time and you never get a reason why. One month it just doesn't come then the following month, back to normal.

I've never skipped a period in my life

Will I still ovulate this September?

I'm 41 and it's maybe happened 2 or 3 times in my life. I was never tracking ovulation at the times It happened but I think I then just ovulated as normal and my next period was at the time it should have been

Hello OP. I got pregnant earlier this year and didn’t test positive until 2 weeks after my missed period. It turned out it was an ectopic pregnancy though. I also have PCOS (with regular cycles) so my head was all over the place when I was waiting. It’s awful.

I hope you get a strong positive soon - but please take care of yourself, do something nice for yourself and if you don’t get your period by next week, test again then make an appointment with the GP for a blood test to put your mind at rest.

I'll test again on the 11th of this month I'll be 2 weeks late then

And if it is still negative I'll have to go to the doctors and ask for a telephone appointment to book me for a blood test pregnancy test

I'll try and forget about it until next week
Maybe it's a phantom pregnancy lol

You're not pregnant and you don't need blood tests.
You'd have an obvious line by now if you were pregnant.

Do you think it could possibly be because I've used £1 cheap hcg test strips ?

But have you been on hormonal birth control, which would regulate your periods?

I hadn’t skipped a period either, until I started TTC. Because I was on the pill. Once I came off it, I skipped a period about once every year or two.

ramdom · 03/09/2024 21:39

No I have not ,
Tomorrow is cycle day 40
I'm always 32 days cycle it's been consistent for 2 years now before it was 28days

I'll try with a more expensive brand maybe because I've been using 3pack £1 test strips

No, it's because you're not pregnant.

Saschka · 03/09/2024 22:19

TheShellBeach · 03/09/2024 21:51

No, it's because you're not pregnant.

Have to agree with this tbh.

sel2223 · 04/09/2024 06:59

Expensive brands or cheap brand won't make a difference OP, especially 8 days after your missed period.
If you were pregnant, any test will pick up hcg by now and show a very strong unmistakable line.

I wasn't on birth control (or just come off it) at the time of my missed periods either, they just happened. There are several reasons for missing a period occasionally including stress, shift work, diet and exercise, travel, weight, age, also some medical issues but these would normally be accompanied by other symptoms....there's lots on the Internet about it

louise9422 · 04/09/2024 08:41

Some people on this thread are being unnecessarily blunt and harsh. You have my sympathy OP. TTC is such an emotional rollercoaster.

MocktailMe · 05/09/2024 01:28

Everyone on this board knows the pain of TTC. It is cruel to be kind IMO - I actually think it's far more unkind to feed false hope and allow people to believe in the tiny slim chance of faulty tests, hook effect etc etc when the reality is that if OP has her dates correct it is almost impossible for her to be pregnant currently. I'd rather be told that and accept it then keep the hope alive for longer and longer. Only makes it more painful in the end.

louise9422 · 05/09/2024 09:26

Totally agree that feeding false hope is not the right thing to do, but there are ways of wording things to be sympathetic and kind, not rude and blunt when someone is already feeling down and vulnerable.

ramdom · 07/09/2024 04:21

Cycle day 43 today no AF and just miserable no clue what's happening with my body ...
