Feeling Pessimistic

I had my b2b iui last Thur & Fri (1/27 & 1/28) & had af-like cramping yesterday.
I think I am 10dpiui? I'm not sure how to count it still.
I took a test this morning (not fmu) and BFN.
I know its still early but I already feel defeated

Re: Feeling Pessimistic

Believe me... totally been there.

I have to say though, for ME, I would consider you 9dpo. If you triggered on a Wednesday, I'd say at the latest, you ovulated on Friday, making Saturday 1dpo and today, 9dpo. So, you could very well be testing too early.

Also....... even if today was 10dpo .. it IS still too early! Last cycle I got a bfp at 12dpo (it turned out to be chemical.. but still............) You just never know. I asked Judy at Dr.B's about it and she said it could have been a late implanter- and that was with an FRER too! So, it's way too soon to feel down about this, but like I said, I have totally been there and now how you feel!

Re: Feeling Pessimistic

It's way too early to test. Don't feel defeated. I think you should count from Friday, so I think you are only 9dpo and that is way too soon for a BFP. Don't lose hope. Yesterday, I had some cramping too. I know we're on the same cycle. Hoping the cramping is a good sign. Think positive. I know it's hard.

thanks girls! you are always so comforting. Some very minor cramping today & hot flashes. Its the weirdest thing!

Re: Feeling Pessimistic

Try to stay somewhat hopeful!

Re: Feeling Pessimistic

I'm with you there. I'm 10dpo (by calculating the same way Pennycat did). I agree that it's too early. If implantation is 5-8dpo, it can take another 3 or so days before you are producing enough hcg for the test to pick up. I've heard of women feeling AF like cramps a few days before their bfp too so .
