Hi girls,

I tested this morning and BFN. I am just curious b/c my last pregnancy I got my BFP at 10DPO. I had really heavy cramping on Monday and just pressure "down there" (10DPO) and then yesterday dull cramping in my lower back and thighs from morning until bedtime with no letup which is very odd for me. Today, no cramping, and small twinges in my right ovary area. I am due for AF tomorrow (CD28), but have heard that with clomid your cycles can stretch out to 30 days, so it may be closer to Saturday before she is due- I dunno.

The only reason I think there may any chance I am preggo is b/c I'm not having all the pre-AF heavy cramping I usually get before AF. Of course, I took clomid for the first time, which means everything is more out of whack than normal I think. I have pretty much given up hope that I am pregnant right now, but I don't want to throw in the towel until the witch shows her face.

So what do you think? How late can I still get a BFP?

[..Jessica..]

I didn't get my BFP until 18DPO. 11DPO the FRER was negative.

I think the only way to really tell is through blood test, implantation occurs 6-12 days after fertilization, so the baby might only now be implanting. If you spot within the next few days, you might assume it's AF when, it's not.

If you don't get AF by next Monday, I think going for a blood test would be more accurate.

Hope this helps, Amber!! And I hope this cycle is the one for you and Kenny!!

ya never know!!! While i really hope this is IT for you... I DO know that when I was on clomid, i had almost every pg symptom possible during the 2 ww. Clomid really messes with you, so you almost can't "trust" your body's symptoms, it stinks!
I hope it was just too early and you get your bfp soon!!! Goodluck sweetie!!!

Thanks Jessica.. that was a ton of help and also gave me more hope. I went out and bought a big box of tampons today and ordered a batch of ov & preg tests yesterday in the hopes that it will bring on a BFP!!


I haven't really felt like I've had any pregnancy symptoms, just an over-abundance of PMS.. which I've attributed to the clomid.

Oh Amber, I hope it's still too early. I agree with Jessica. I'd go for bloodwork if she doesn't show by Monday. I hope she doesn't and you're pg. G/l

I know a few people that didn't get a BFP untill 15 DPO, so there is a chance its still to early

[Danica]

I definately think it just could be early. I really hope you are pregnant and that your hunches are right. Are you testing again tomorrow?

[tparum]

it may just be to eairly a dear friend of mine didnt get her bfp until she was 18 dpo

[victorialv]

I agree with the others that it is probably still too early. Maybe just a late planter!!

GL sweetie!!

I'm thinking I'll definitely test in the morning! I think I have 2 or 3 tests left and my next batch should be on their way!!! I am all ready for AF to show though... as soon as she comes I'm refilling my clomid. But I'm still not spotting yet either, so that is another plus in my corner, b/c I usually spot before AF.

I'll keep you all posted!!!

THanks for all the positive thoughts- I need them!

[Melanie0507]

Tons and tons of positive baby thoughts coming your way Amber!!!

I really hope you caught that eggie and it's just too early to show up!

g/l girl!!

Some babies don't implant till 12 days after O...and they say O can happen within a 4 day window of when we think....so.... You are sooo still in.

Remember it's not over till the witch shows....and right now I have her locked in my house.

[babyblue]

Man, this is killing me!! I just can't imagine that I did not ovulate on 21 March- I was having unbearable cramping and pain in my left side and got my positive OPK the day before. But who knows really? I guess stranger things have happened.

Today is CD28- AF should show today or tomorrow. I tested today and got another big fat negative.
I don't know what to think b/c I"m not cramping one bit. I always cramp before she shows. Other than

I am very frustrated, b/c if I am not pregnant, than I want AF to show up at my doorstep NOW so I can get on with it!! So Bobbie, you may have to let her out early so she can stop at my house. Of course, I really wish she'd avoid me altogether, but if she's coming, I don't want her to take her sweet time getting here!!!
