First Time TTC, 12 DPO, 5 BFNs

I don't have a specific question in mind, but I am new to this TTC stuff and I don't think I passed my first exam.

DH and I BD'd 3 days before and on the O day (21st). We used pre-seed, OPK, been taking prenatal vitamins for few months, DH has also been taking multivitamins and zinc supplements, and we've cut back on caffeine and alcohol.

I tested negative with FRER on 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 DPO (I know, crazy). No symptoms stand out unfortunately, besides the typical pre-pms symptoms. My birthday is tomorrow and I so badly wanted to have a positive for my bday gift--but after 5 bold BFNs with no hint of even a faint positive, I am feeling like there's no chance at this point?

Good luck to everyone out there! I'm always lookin for a cycle buddy too.

There is a chance. You are testing early. Try and wait until at least a day before your expected AF. You also don't need symptoms to be pregnant. Good luck!

Hello!

I think you're probably testing too early - it is best to wait until the first day you expect your period... it is possible that you are pregnant but just need to wait a bit to test.

Baby dust to you!

Hello,

I also very new to this and am having the same problem. I think the worst part of it is that POAS is making me depressed (to say the least). All I can say is to keep trying....hopefully HCG is just too low to pick up right now. GOOD LUCK!!

Thanks ladies! I actually took another test today (hoping for my bday gift) and it was a BFN. Womp womp.

I am 13 DPO now, and I know it's technically early but I feel like I am giving up hope that this will be my month, because I feel like being at 13 dpo using the 6day FRER with FMU that I'd at LEAST see a very faint line.

I will test tomorrow again, which is when AF is due. Or maybe I will test on Sunday cause I'd hate to test and then AF rear it's fugly head as I POAS.

Good luck to you all!! I will keep you updated.

Similar thing happened to me last month and AF showed up 2 days late. BUT from what I have been reading, you still have a chance. Lots of women get BFNs and then BFPs several days after their period is late.

Good luck!
