    Hi ladies, I'm wondering if any of you got a clear BFP the day right after a BFN? I know they say HCG doubles every other day so should I test every other day or every day?

    I got a BFN this morning and I'm out of tests so I'm just wondering if I should try to hold out until Saturday or if it's possible that I'll get a BFP tomorrow. (FWIW, I am now two days late for my period and while I'm not charting, I think I'm about 16 dpo).

    I did. But I took the test that was negative the day before in the afternoon. The next day I took one first thing in the morning and got a BFP! Are you normally right on schedule with your periods or do they vary? Good luck! :p

    I'd wait till Saturday if af still hasn't shown. Some ladies can take quite a while before getting a BFP on a hpt... and then some never get one and have to have a blood test to confirm.

    So if you can, try and wait it out! Goodluck!

    I have! I got a BFN, tested again the next morning and had a clear BFP! That being said though, I'd suggest waiting until Saturday to test again just because there would be a better chance of a BFP then. Good luck :)

    I was afraid you'd all say to wait! I will try to be good and not test again till Saturday  :)

    Also, @Running Elley I can't wait to hear your blood test results!!

    I received a BFN the day of my missed period. 4 days later I got the most faint positive result that I thought it was a shadow or a defective test. It wasn't until 7 days after my missed period that I received a definitive BFP.  

    Good luck!  I'm hoping for some good news!!

    I only tested once at 10 DPO and got a pos., but I've heard of lots of women testing neg. and then getting a pos. shortly after. Wait a couple days so any hormones will have doubled and test again! Baby dust!

    I got a BFN at 10 DPO and a BFP 12 DPO.  Give it a few days and test again.

    I got two BFPs yesterday, and the day before yesterday, and three days before I had gotten a BFN.

    I got a BFN about 4 days before my missed period.  It took until 4 days after my missed period before I finally got a BFP - and even that was a faint line at first!  It wasn't until about 6 days after my missed period that it was a nice dark BFP.

    My last pregnancy I got a BFN right around my missed period. I waited a couple days and finally got my faint BFP. This time I somehow got a faint BFP a few days before my missed period. Both tests were the same sensitivity so I think it can vary. I think waiting for Saturday is a good idea and GOOD LUCK!!

    I got a BFN, waited 2 days and then got a BFP. It could be too early to show up yet or you may not have had enough HCG in your urine. I'd just re-test in a couple days.
