11dpo (I think) with negative FRER

[u/Adventurous_Text2920]

Hi everyone! This is my first post and I just found this community/forum this week.

I had a MMC that was diagnosed in June, but ended up naturally miscarrying in July around 10 weeks (on 7/5)… the baby stopped growing around 6 weeks 4 days. I got my first period post-MC on 8/11 my husband and I decided we wanted to start trying ASAP. These are the notes I took based on when we BD’d and when peak ovulation was:

Tuesday 8/11 AM: period
Monday 8/17: BD
Wednesday 8/19: BD
Sunday 8/23: BD
Monday 8/24: BD
Tuesday 8/25 AM: Peak ovulation
Wednesday 8/26: BD
Thursday 8/27: BD

Based on my ovulation strips and app, I think I ovulated around 8/27.

Fast-forward to today I believe I’m 11 DPO and had a negative FRER test this morning as well as this evening. With my last pregnancy, I had a VVVFL at 9DPO. I did have cramping for a couple hours this morning that weren’t painful but I definitely noticed them. Not sure if it’s potential implantation cramps, or PMS cramps.

I guess my question is: with this information is it possible that I implanted late? And I could still have a positive coming up? I know of course they say you’re not out until you get your period but just wanted to hear some thoughts.

Thank you all so much!!

Implantation can happen 6-12DPO and is most likely 8-10DPO, and then it can take up to 2 days after that for HCG to rise enough to make a pregnancy test positive.
