Someone reassure me I'm not out yet!

Ok, ladies...so I broke and tested today at 10DPO. And, I did it in the afternoon after work. Of course I got a BFN! Please tell me this is too early...especially in the afternoon. And I am using tests that are 50 (units??) sensitive.

Can anyone tell me some reassuring stories where you got BFNs first that turned to BFPs later? I need to keep my spirits up!

With my first child I got BFN until almost two weeks after my missed period

. It can happen.

sorry.. trying to give you a little laugh. chin up - it could be too early x

I didn't get a BFP until about 10 days after AF was due. Too early, wait a few more days. Hang in there, dear!

Oh hunnie I did not get my BFP with my first Pg until I was 2 1/2 months pg and trust me I tested almost every day with FRER! You are not out yet silly girl!

I have no reassuring story... however, afternoon, not FMU and not due yet means only about a 15% chance you would get a positive even if you are pregnant. Test again first thing tomorrow morning

btw - totally pulled the 15% outta my... but you get the idea!

yep i agree with mlyster!!! 12 dpo with fmu is the best time most women first get a bfp!!! G/L, relax and restest in a couple of days!!

I did not get a BFP until late on 11dpo and it was sooooooo faint. Too early, wait two more days, good luck and lots of baby dust your way!

You're definitely not out! Wait 2 more days and test with FMU....and get a more sensitive test...even the ones from the dollar store are more sensitive than what you used! BFP vibes coming your way!

Kary♥RN · #10 July 16th, 2009, 02:21 PM

50 isn't very sensitive... I would say test again tomorrow with a FRER or something simular!!!! GOOD LUCK! kup!!

I love breaking out this stat from Fertility Friend that based on their statistical analysis of all the charts on their site that the most accurate time to begin testing is between DPO13-14...prior to that there's a high rate of false negatives...so you're definitely not out yet! When is AF due for you?

starrsgirl · #12 July 16th, 2009, 04:30 PM

Thank you ladies! I was freaking out...and I felt so good about this cycle. AF is due on Sunday. I'm 11 DPO today but could be 10 DPO too (I got 2 positive OPKs).

My boobs are still kinda full and it doesn't feel like AF is coming.

I dunno...I will buy a more sensitive test and check tomorrow. Thanks for the reassurance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

KDD · #13 July 16th, 2009, 08:13 PM

You're totally not out. 10 DPO is wayyyyy too early! Wait a couple of days and use FMU and a FRER.

Mel1979 · #14 July 16th, 2009, 10:40 PM

10 days can still be way too early, you are definitely not out yet!

Sending you heaps of

We need some BFP's in here!

Best of luck

Have you ever seen the tv show "I didn't know I was PG?"!?!?!? Some of those ladies swear that they tested the first AND second time af didn't show and still had babies. You are not out. O predictors are the devil is what I have heard. Wait a couple days before you get discouraged (we all know that all of us would, therefore, you will test today) wait a couple more days. Both of my dds were surprises, so I just went "hum, I think I should have had a period by now" so who knows how many days past af I was. Hang in there. We are ALL rooting for you.
