3 days late BFN

27 replies

PossiblyPregnantAt17 · 17/04/2023 18:43

I'm 3 days late for period with many BFN and one test with a faint line (clearblue)
-craving things I usually HATE and drinking lots of smoothies
-lower back ache and abdominal cramps
-very tired and moody
-nausea WITHOUT vomiting
-sore nipples
-no sign of AF
Not sure what to do, should I give up testing and rule pregnancy out?

I tested positive 5 days late for my AF, when I tested at 3 days late it was negative I would wait till your 5 days late if you can hold out x

It won't let me quote your reply Leanne. What test did you use and was it a strong negative?

no way!! I had mine taken out after 1.5 years 17th march and had spotting that day and next day I started AF properly (18-23 march) and I haven't had a period since which is unlike me. 28 days has been my longest cycle and now I'm on CD31. I don't know if it could be implant removal that has made me have my symptoms but it's possible I could be pregnant.

@PossiblyPregnantAt17 mine was 2 years out of date 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️, but I didn't think it would take me this quick to fall pregnant , I would test again in 2 days time see what happens I had implantation bleeding 14-15th feb ans that was it no period of anything xx

I had brown spotting April 2-5 and pink looking discharge April 6. Could that possibly have been implantation? I also had pink looking EWCM CD27 April 13th.

LeeanneD11 · 17/04/2023 21:19

@PossiblyPregnantAt17 it could have been mine was pink for 2 days and then nothing after and I'm now 7 and half weeks pregnant., xx

If I'm calculating from first day of last period (my period started same day as implant removal and lasted 6 days) then I'd be 4 weeks 3 days so that's why I assumed I'd have a strong line by now

LeeanneD11 · 17/04/2023 21:23

@PossiblyPregnantAt17 test again in 2 days time it might show up better xx

I don't know how long this has been here but I tested 6.30-7pm ish and it was negative or at least very faint earlier and didn't really look and I was getting ready for bed and saw that!! What does this mean!!

3 days late BFN

Your cycle can be really weird after coming off the implant/pill. Takes a while for your hormones to settle down. I get cramps, tiredness, moodiness, sensitive nipples and cravings before my period. I’m currently pregnant and didn’t get any pregnancy symptoms (apart from a missed period) until I was around 8 weeks pregnant. The symptoms I developed were horrific nausea, vomiting, food aversions and sensitive boobs.

Did you have a name change fail? The last pic of the Clear Blue will be invalid I’m afraid. You’re meant to read the test within the time frame it states. Negative tests can end up looking kind of positive if left out for a while.

LeeanneD11 · 18/04/2023 09:13

@PossiblyPregnantAt17 how you getting on anymore testing , have you done a clear blue digital that says pregnant and not pregnant best one to do to know for sure . I did one of them test you took and it was rubbish for me . Xx

Day 4 of missed period and still have symptoms of cramping, cravings and fatigue etc. No sign of AF. My FRERs arrive Thursday so don't know whether to wait until then or do digital in the morning.

LeeanneD11 · 18/04/2023 09:31

I would personally go and get a clear blue digital that's says pregnant or not pregnant @PossiblyPregnantAt17 @PossiblyPregnant0571 xx

LeeanneD11 · 18/04/2023 09:44

@PossiblyPregnantAt17
@PossiblyPregnant0571 I would test today on the clear blue x

PinkPink1 · 18/04/2023 10:48

If your period was truly late then you’d get a definite positive on any test now. I had 2 super dark pink lines on a FRER when I was around 2 days late (I didn’t test prior to this). You might not have ovulated yet or you could’ve ovulated later than you think. As I said before, your cycle can be very strange after coming off hormonal contraception because your body learns to ovulate again. It often takes months to discover a new pattern.

The symptoms you mention are symptoms I get before my period. I didn’t have many pregnancy symptoms (apart from a missed period) until I was 8 weeks pregnant.

I don't know whether to take a digital tonight or in the morning

I've heard it's very common to keep getting BFN and then get a BFP between 7-21 one days after missed period if you still haven't got it
