I tested early after my FET (at 8dp5dt) this morning and got a BFN... is it over or am I just impatient? πŸ€πŸ€žπŸ€πŸ€žπŸ€πŸ€ž

Still clinging on to hope.... At 8dp5dt I tested (this morning at 5am, after last going for a wee at 1am)... Technically I was 7.5dp5dt because the transfer was at 2pm.

Obviously I'm gutted but can't give up yet... The fact it's a FET apparently means things can be delayed a bit. And I know I was naughty and should have waited (but I don't regret doing it as I was going mad!)

OTD is weds (12dp5dt) so I guess I'm going to test daily until either AF shows or my OTD confirms either way. I'm not kidding myself and know the chance of it becoming a BFP is probably slim... But without hope what can I do?!

Spotting the started yesterday very very light is now still light (dark brown in colour) but more than yesterday). I spotted in my 2nd cycle that ended up with a BFP.... So I'm clinging to hope.... the cramping has definitely dulled down and hardly there at all now.

Had to go to a 2 year olds birthday party this morning with a baby there... Thought I'd be fine but got a bit teary and just needed to leave!

Good luck to you all ladies, I wouldn't wish the 2ww on my worst enemy!

Try testing with a urine sample you’ve held in for a longer period of time. Four hours really isn’t that long when testing so early, so try not to stress yourself out over it x

Sorry I can’t offer any advice as this is my first time going through it all but definitely sounds like you may still get a positive if you wait a bit longer. It’s so hard isn’t it. I’ve purposefully not bought any tests other than the one the clinic has given me. I know what I’m like and otherwise I’d be testing already too! Good luck you aren’t out yet! xx

Sorry to hear what you're going through. The 2ww is torture enough without the added spotting at this stage. It sounds like lots of women have gone through something similar and done on to have BFPs.

What test did you use? Maybe give it two days and try again.

Wishing you all the best and sending lots of baby dust your way!!! πŸ’–

Update: I tested again this morning (9dp5dt) (now 14 days total but on a FET) and still got a BFN. Both yesterday's test and today were first response tests. I'm still taking meds until my OTD on weds (12pd5dt) but have started to accept it's probably not worked this time xx

I did the same thing. I tested negative on day 9. I also believe that the result won’t change tomorrow. I finally accepted it. So when I get the phone call I won’t be that disappointed. I already talked to my husband. I would like to try a second to time
