BFN Followed By A BFP?

October 10, 2008

Has anyone gotten a BFN and then eventually got a BFP?

I've taken 3 tests in the last 4 days and they've all been negative... 2 internet cheapies and 1 Equate.

Cd 30 today and wondering if AF is playing games with me or the tests just aren't picking it up... opinions please.

It is possible to get a negative and then a couple of days later get a positive, but w/o knowing when you O'd it is hard to know when to test.

October 10, 2008

The only thing I know is that my cycles are usually much shorter than this. I'm CD 30 today. 31 days is the longest cycle I've had in 18 months...

October 10, 2008

Guess it would all depend on when you O'd, could be you are testing too early. You started testing at CD26 right? That seems kinda early, but that's just me :) I always wait till after CD32 or so. Good luck & hope it was just too soon & you still get your BFP!

Wanna, how long usually is your LP?

October 10, 2008

Thanks Wendy... if no AF by Monday, I'm going for the dang blood test... I'm tired of playing around. I just need to know. My emotions are all crazy right now and I just want it to stop, you know?

I might test again Sunday, but I dunno. Depends how I feel.

October 10, 2008

It varied, but was around 10 days.

October 10, 2008

When I ovulated... don't ovulate on my own often, but do have regular periods.

Has your doctor ever mentioned that you might have a luteal phase defect?

So you still bleed whether you ovulate or not?

October 10, 2008

My docs honestly don't care. I've been trying to get a doctor (any doctor) to help me since we've been TTC for 3 years now, but they refuse... they just tell me that I need to lose weight.

In fact, I just went to the doc at the beginning of Sept. for help and she told me that she wouldn't help me... the only thing she would do is give me BC for the next year or two so that I can get some weight off... I'm really not that big! Geez!

Are you averaging in those cycles where you bleed even though you do not ovulate?

October 10, 2008

I averaged in all my cycles for the last 18 months. I only charted temps for 3 months. One month didn't ovulate, one month I ovulated and had a 10 day luteal phase, and one month I ovulated and had a 5 day luteal phase (much too short).

I used OPK's for 3 months straight, never ever got a positive. So I gave up. As it stands now, I've never seen a positive test (HPT or OPK) in real life. Never. So frustrating.

October 10, 2008

I thought you were pg? I am so confussed.... I saw your test hunn and that was a BFP I have not heard of faulse + only faulse -.

Have you taken another test since your BFP?

October 10, 2008

There's another Wannabemommie on here...

October 10, 2008

The one who got a BFP wasn't me. :(

October 10, 2008

oh no!!!!! I am so sorry. Wow I feel like an ass... I thought that it was you and wrote her this comment b/c I thought she was u.... =(

I am so sorry. Now you test have showed - and +?

October 10, 2008

It's ok. It gets confusing... even confuses me sometimes! :)

Nope, I've only gotten negatives. 3 in the last 4 days, 2 internet cheapies (I blamed them being negative on not being very good tests) and now 1 Equate (which are supposed to be pretty good).

I'm starting to doubt that I'll ever be a mommy.

:(

October 10, 2008

Oh please don't be too hard on yourself. This is such a struggle it truely is. You will have your chance to be a mommy and we will all be there cheering you on with the pg. lol One thing that has helped me is that when I think this is not going to happen and I feel so upset about it, I take all of those emotions and turn it into more determination than I thought I started with. Then I end up feeling more hopefull. It is a technique to challenge myself in not giving up hope for what I want. This will happen for you sweetie I know it will. Please hang in there. BABY DUST!!!!!

((((HUGS))))

October 10, 2008

Thanks. I'm just really upset... I really made myself believe that I would see a BFP today and I didn't. It crushed me harder than I thought it would.

Not sure what to do now... how long do I wait for AF? I've never missed a period, so I don't know what I should be doing?

October 10, 2008

Wannabe, does your Dr's say anything about the bleeding when you are not O'ing? I thought it is not a true AF if you did not O. Can you get your progesterone checked to verify if you ovulated?

October 10, 2008

Progesterone was checked once, was 0.7 at CD 18. They don't care.

October 10, 2008

But can you have it checked this cycle?
