Hi Everyone!

I May have conceived on Sept. 30. My breasts are unusually tender for much longer than impending period symptom would be. I tested neg with clearblue easy, which picks up 20 miu's of hcg. It's label states that you can test 4 days before period is due. My question is, "Has anyone ever tested neg at approx the same point, then to test positive later?" Want to keep my hopes up, so please let me know. Sandy

Hi!

I was wondering the same thing because I tested early and got a negative.... so I went on the Fertility Friend website and searched for charts that had a negative HPT then a positive a few days later and it came up with over 600 charts that are like that.... and I searched the net and it apparenly isn't that uncommon.... so that's a little ray of hope for both of us!

Well there is only one thing bad about testing early, if you get a BFN, you still dont know the answer for sure. If you get a BFP then you know, but when you get a negative there is always the chance that it is too early to tell and therefore you still have to wait for AF to come, or to test again, which ever occurs. So dont let all your hopes get away just yet, there is still a chance that you could get a BFP. Good Luck!!

I potentially conceived around 9/26 and still all BFNs!!! I thought, though, that Clearblue easy was closer to 50mcl?? Does it say somewhere on the package that it's 20?? I totally missed that. I'm 3 days overdue but have no idea how regular I am so I'm just waiting too. I have what was supposed to be a preconception appointment (haha) next monday, but the doctor's office wants me to wait for a bloodtest. UGH!! I was hoping they'd let me come in now, or at least at the end of this week.

Anyway, please keep us posted and best wishes to you all.

Hi Sandy,

Don't worry hun. You might just be one of us that ovulates late in the cycle. Which means the hCG levels wont be high enough to test for another week or so. I was almost 7 weeks pregnant before i got a positive result, and I was practically testing every 3 days.

Hope it work out for u.
