Possible problem with First Response?

Question

Hey y’all! So AF was supposed to be here 2 days ago. I normally have very consistent cycles,  usually 28 days. I’ve gotten BFN on DPOs 8,10,12, and then today, 15. I’ve felt weird lately, but chalked that up to stress, and assumed AF was coming. I’ve only been using the first response tests, and didn’t know if anyone has had issues with them giving false negatives?

Answer

False negative isn't really the correct term as it implies there is something wrong with the test itself. If negative, its not usually due to a faulty test but rather one of these scenarios: 
1: you're not pregnant and the test is accurate 
2: you're testing too early,  and the egg hasn't implanted yet (if testing 12DPO or earlier) - if period is late, it's likely delayed ovulation, and you are testing too early and aren't actually "late" based on ovulation
3: the egg has successfully implanted but there isn't enough HCG yet to be properly detected. If this is the case then a blood test is probably the best option. 
Good luck hun!!!!!
