Anyone got their BFP days after missed period?

Hello everyone,

I am 28yo, been trying to conceive for a couple of months.

My period has always been super on time, it has never been late since it started! Not even once. I have a 28 days cycle and always get my period on 28 (14DPO). I am now at day 32 and no sign of AF. Not even symptoms. I had mild cramps the day my period was due (day 28), then nothing else. Just as if my period has skipped the month.
HOWEVER, I am getting BFNs. I tested on the day my period was due, the day later, and today which is my 4th day after missed period. Has anyone had the same experience then got a BFP? If so, what day?
I am askinf for advice because this is my first time ever being late.

Thank you for any kind of advice 😘

Hi @Gbit hope you’re okay.

I have had 5 pregnancies (currently 6 and a half weeks + 4 previous MC’s) and each time I tested 3 days after my missed period and got positives. Each of my previous were quite light and I MC’d before 6 weeks each time. My current pregnancy is going better up to now (🤞🏽) and that test was a pretty good dye stealer by day 3.

The only explanation I can think of is if you ovulated late which would obviously be unusual considering your cycle history but honestly stranger things have happened!

If no period shows I would test in a few days time with a red dye test to see if anything pops up. It might be too early atm. My fingers and toes are crossed for you 🤞🏽 xx

It is possible to regularly ovulate late compared to the length of your cycle. I have a 28 day cycle, maybe plus or minus 1 day (currently breastfeeding, so more variable), but don't ovulate until more like day 18 so when my period is due, I'm only 10 dpo. I never tested until I was about where you are now, so I can't comment on earlier negative tests, but my positive tests around day 33-35 or so were clear, but light coloured lines, definitely not dye stealers. (Two healthy pregnancies, no apparent bother due to my late ovulation other than having my due date put back a bit at the 12 week scan, and 1 miscarriage at 6 weeks.)
