I'm 11 DPO, BFNs since 8 DPO, and am really starting to feel "out." AF should be due Wednesday at 14 DPO (CD 1). I'm wondering, for those who go the "test early, test often" route, what's the longest it's taken you to get a BFP?
I know I'm not out till the fat lady sings or whatever, just feeling like it's another game-over cycle.

This last one was 9dop (althought I thought I saw something at 8 but was not sure).
With DD it was 11dpo but 4 years ago the tests were not as great as they are now.
My other 2 pregnancys were OPPS and I was almost 6 weeks before I even knew I was pregnant.
Still holding out hope for you!

Okay for me it has varied with all my pregnancies. The earliest I have gotten a BFP was 8dpo and the latest is 16dpo so 2 days after AF was due. So it really does vary hun. I know it's hard to hold out hope but try to

I am only 1 dpo and I am skeptical that this will be the month for me. Hopefully we're both wrong.

For me in the last couple years, it has been between 8 and 10dpo. With the sensitivity the way it is now, I think thats why we get them so earlly. These were with both m/c's and my pregnancy to term. For me though with my lp being only 12days, if I did not see a + before or on 10dpo, I always knew it was over for me. With my dd who is 8, I tested the whole week before I was due and saw nothing on the hpt until the day AF was due.

With my first pg, I didn't get my BFP until 12 dpo, and it was super faint... DH didn't even believe me. I know it gets so hard, but you're not out yet!

I'm 10-11dpo too and have gotten all BFN's. But last time (november) I did not get a BFP until 2 days after AF was due I think it was like 14dpo, and I was testing everyday for a week. I'm not sure if I have extreme PMS right now or what, but I feel different, SO I will keep testing until AF shows.
Are you having any symptoms?

No symptoms, but I didn't really have any with Drew either this early on. The only thing was that I started eating weird food, either stuff I didn't normally like or things that shouldn't go together, and my boobs swelled up. We were NTNP then and I had no idea when my period was due or anything, just bopping along and living life, so they were real symptoms for sure and not just IPS

Of my three pregnancies the latest BFP I got was 13dpo. With the other two it was either 8 or 9dpo.
Don't give up hope yet!

This cycle was the only one I knew exactly how many DPO I was...I tested starting at 10DPO at least once, sometimes 2 or 3, times a day and I didn't get a + until 14 DPO and it was sooooo super faint. I took two FRER's out of the same urine cup and one of them was super faint, but one looked like a BFN! The next day (15 DPO, AF was due) I took a digi and it was +. So even though I tested early I didn't get a BFP til 14 and it was still questionable to me at that point...with my last ones, I don't know exact dates but I know I concieved my son on Feb 14th (only time we DTD cuz I knew I was pregnant from it) and didn't get a + til early Mar, like Mar 3 I want to say. But I had tested so much during the second week after the 14th that when I took it on the 3rd, the FRER was faint, but much darker then the one I had with this pregnancy. good luck!

I'm sorry you got a BFN  I did too on a FRER. I am feeling so sad now, I hate how a BFN ruins your whole day. I still have some hope for us though! Stay away AF!

I don't have any story to help because, like you, I wasn't really paying attention. At some point it just occurred to me that I might be late and I tested. Same with the loss pregnancy.

The earliest I have ever gotten a BFP was 9 DPO and that was super faint, and twins. Usual is 11-12 DPO.

I usually got BFPs around 10 DPO I got one as late as 12 DPO, but everyone is different..... Some girls don't get BFPs until 16 DPO or later...
