12dp2dt - BFN again

Well tested again this morning with clearblue and it was a negative.

I rang the clinic today and after 3 hours they called me back. I told them about the little pink blood I had Friday eve and could it of implanted late. She said I doubt it and it is most probably a negative. But if you want to stay on cyclogest and test tomorrow then you can..... Really - how informative of you.

I found this on line which is why I was questioning it

Implantation, when the fertilized egg implants into the endometrium, happens about a week after ovulation (range: 6-12 days), and it takes another 3-4 days after implantation (9-16 dpo: days after ovulation) for the blood pregnancy test to first become positive, followed 2-3 days later by the early positive pregnancy urine test, the home pregnancy test (HPT).

Blood Pregnancy test: If you are pregnant then the blood pregnancy test is usually positive within 3-4 days after implantation or about 9-10 days after fertilization and ovulation.


Urine (Home HPT) Pregnancy Test: The early positive urine pregnancy test will usually not become positive until 2-3 days after the blood test, and in most women until a missed period or about a week after implantation. Many manufacturers of urine pregnancy tests want you to believe that the urine test is usually positive before a missed period, but only about 25% of pregnant women will test positive with the HPT 2 days before a missed period, and about 40% the day before the missed period.


Now if that was implantation bleeding on Friday at 9dp2dt, a home test may not pick up a positive yet?!?! Surely that makes sense right.


Anyway, I am going to get a couple of different tests. try again tonight and tomorrow morning, then call them again.


Why don't they give us a blood test??
