BFN, then BFP anyone...going crazy

Last cycle was 8/18, nothing as of today. I have symptoms, tingling bbs and tummy and nausea. ttc #2. I couldn't wait and tested today, BFN. How many of you have gotten BFN, then a few days later gotten a BFP? I'm anxious, I will drive myself crazy.

Any comments would be great. It's nice to know that I am not the only one who obsesses about this.

Hi there,

My last cycle was 8/24. I tested on Sunday--BFN! That was probably too soon. I think it was about 10 DPO. I had a tiny bit of spotting on Monday, I thought it was over but it stopped. I was on a business trip so I couldn't test again-- I didn't bring any tests. I got back last night and tested this morning BFP!!!!!!

So keep the faith. Give it a few days and test again. You didn't mention it but how long are your cycles normally? Mine are shorter--25 days.

Baby dust to you and Good luck!

PS I was (and still am) completely obsessed. The only reason I didn't have any tests on my trip was that I had a moment of strength when I was packing. I almost went out and bought some when I was treveling, especially after the spotting stopped!

That happens fairly often. A lot of us test too early since we're so anxious to find out! Wait a few days to a week and test again. Good luck! Aubrey;)

Thanks for your reply and CONGRATS to you!

I'll wait and test again on Saturday or Sunday, if AF doesn't show.

Of course she normally does once I take the test.

H&H 9 months!!

When I had my first, I tested and then a few days later tested again. It was - the first time, and + the second. I even kept feeling like I was about to get AF the whole time. Hang in there. Maybe you tested too soon.

I did the same thing. I tested on 9/5 and BFN. Tested again on 9/12 and got two very dark lines!

I must have tested too early...b/c I have gotten two more BFP's on EPT tests!

Be patient and try again in a few days! Good luck!
