How many days before AF was due did you get a bfp??

I'm like 75% sure that I'm pregnant this month and I can't wait to take a test. I'm wondering how many days before af was due were some of you able to get a bfp?

Thanks!

It all depends on when you ovulated...do you have a good idea of exactly when that happened? If you ovulate late, then you would probably not get a + 5 days before your period.

For example, if someone ovulates on day 13 and has a 28 day cycle, then they would be 10dpo five days before their period should start.

If they ovulated on day 18 (some people do), then they would only be 5dpo five days before their period..and that would definitely not show up on a hpt. The egg probably wouldn't have even implanted yet.

I was doing the Clearblue Digital Ovulation kit and didn't get a smiley face until day 18-19! That's really late for me, but I was under a lot of stress due to work, my 2 year-old, and graduate school. My cycle has been more of a 30-31 days for a past couple of months.

I'm testing next Thursday on the 11th...I can hardly stand this wait! Ugh!

Good luck! I hope you get your BFP!!!

Hope you get your BFP this month! I think with all my pregnancies I got my BFP around 2 or 3 days before.

AF is due for me on the 9th! We took a break for a couple of months, so I am hoping for a BFP this month too!

Tarrah87- what kind of test did you use?

Kels123- Greetings back from Colorado. It's so freakin cold today isn't it? We just started getting flurries at my house. It's a perfect day to wrap christmas presents and stay inside.

AF is still 5 days away and I don't want to test too soon, but I don't know if I'm having symptoms wouldn't the test show positive?? Ugh maybe I should break down and get one today. What do you guys think?

I was able to get a very faint BFP about 5 days before my missed period.  Then, I tested every other day after that faint BFP and it just kept getting darker and darker!  :)
