I took a HPT the day before i was expecting my period and got a BFN, but sure enough my period was late! I didnt think I was pregnant because I had just gone off the pill after my LMP. My period was 2 weeks late so I took another test, and sure enough it was positive!! I was already 6 weeks pregnant! So its definately possible to get a negative even when you are pregnant! Hope this helps, good luck!!

I got my bfp at 11dpo - negatives from 8dpo - 10dpo.
Last pregnancy I got my BFP at 18dpo but that pregnancy ended up being an ectopic pregnancy.
In my bag: Nikon D90; 35mm 1.8, 90mm 2.8 macro (my fave), Lensbaby Composer with macro extensions. BFP after 13 cycles and one ectopic. Lost left tube 5/19/10.
Last pregnancy, I got my BFP about a week late (for my period, not per ovulation time), however, I wasn't temping so I don't know my exact ovulation date. This time, I was temping and got it at 11 DPO. If you did not temp and/or did not have a doctor closing following you to determine ovulation date, then you have no idea if you got the BFP late or not.
BFP#1 4/17/10...EDD 1/6/11...M/C 5/28/10
BFP#2 11/19/10...EDD 8/4/11
Squeaker born 7/30.
Of course it can depend on the sensitivity of the HPT and concentration of urine. But it seems in general, the odds of still being pregnant are low if you have a BFN at 12 dpo and on.
Re: If you got your BFP late (several dpo)
HPT accuracy DPO
10 dpo : 35%
11 dpo : 51%
12 dpo : 62%
13 dpo : 68%
14 dpo : 74%
15 dpo : 80%
16 dpo : 88%
17 dpo : 92%
18 dpo : 99%
I hope that helps. FWIW, I got my BFP at 11dpo and that was the first day I tested. GL.

First day I tested was 12-13 dpo with BFP.
This website actually has a chart with the odds of you still being pregnant after a BFN:
