So, the first day of my last period was 2/20/09. I used to be exactly 28 days EVERY SINGLE MONTH. Within the last 3-4 months, it has varied to up to 32 days. But, always with spotting beginning at 28-29 days. I am now at day 31 and NADA NOTHING! I took a digi, which was all I had, yesterday morning and a sad, sad 'no'. I don't know what to think. When I was pg in Oct, I noticed because I realized that af hadn't been for quite a while. We were more ntnp and not really paying much attention, as it had been 9 mos of ttc and nothing. So, I feel like af was probably overdue. I got a very faint bfp in Oct, followed by a 'not pg' digi. A day later I got a 'pg' digi...and a week later I lost our baby. So, I am wondering if any of you think that it is possible to recieve bfns at this point in a cycle and still be pg. Should I go and buy more tests tomorrow if I don't wake up to af...Thanks for reading this far. I love you ladies.

It's definitely possible to be seeing false negatives, especially if you have somewhat irregular cycles. My cycles varied up to 6-7 days in length, and even with charting obsessively, FF always recommended that i wait until at least 2 days past my longest cycle length to test to ensure most accurate result.
Good luck to you when you test again sweetie! KUP

I AGREE!!!! You could be on a longer schedule, hence O later this month. I would go get FRER's and test again. Hopping for your BFP!

It is def possible to get a bfn especially on a digi. I have never had good luck with them when testing early. Hope to see a bfp soon!

I agree, I think it's very possible to get a BFN on a digi because they tend to not detect pregnancy til after CD31. Try a FRER!

OK...get in the car, get on a bike, put on your walking shoes...Do whatever it takes to go get more tests!!! You don't have a chart do you? When do you think you O'd? Any eps? Details. I want details! I hope AF stays away and the BFP shows itself soon! G/L remember...we want details so we can obsess about your cycle with you! Big hugs and lots of prayers!

I agree go with the ladies go get the FRER HPT, and you can probably be pretty confident in its results by this point. Good Luck!

I agree with everyone else. Digis are wayyy less sensitive so you have to be farther along to get a BFP with them! Good Luck re-testing!

Well, ladies...I had a tiny bit of spotting when I went to the bathroom today  I think this is the beginning of the end...of this promising cycle. I am totally bummed. I went and bought like 6 tests yesterday and took two both bfns !!! On to cycle number 14!!! I am so sad right now. I am going to go to the gym and work off some of this stress (and chips and ice cream  ). Thank you ladies for helping me stay positive. I will check in a little later...

UGH, I am sorry it turned out that way. Good for you for turning to the gym - I would've ran straight to more chips and ice cream!
HUGS!
