If you got a BFP before your missed period...

My period has been coming at 15 DPO for several cycles now. Today I am at 12 DPO. Even though I've tested positive (many times!), I feel like it will feel more real when I miss my normal period date.

Anyone else??

    yup! I usually get my period at 12 dpo, but I'll feel a little better when I get past my longest LP - 14 dpo.

    I tested at 10dpo (4 days before my missed period), and I felt a lot more pregnant when I missed my period since I had horrible period-like cramps and was convinced I'd start my period. I'm now 6 days passed my missed period, so it feels real and I'm not as nervous now.

    I'm 16 DPO right now, although I'm cramping today so I'm still a bit nervous.

    I got my BFP on the day AF was due (12DPO).  The BFP I got the next day felt even better LOL!  

    That being said... I am now nervous while waiting for my second beta and progesterone levels.  But I'm keeping the faith and trying to enjoy being pregnant for as long as I can Smile

    I got a BFP 4 days before AF was due.  It was definitely weird.  It felt more real once I passed the date she was due and she never came.

    I actually waited until I passed my longest cycle before I tested. I didn't want to be disappointed so I waited until 17DPO.

    Yep, I am with you.  Will feel better in about a week (my longest cycle) even though the line on the test (yes, I keep testing) keeps getting darker.  :)

    I'm still testing, too. Like you, I like seeing the line get darker. Plus I have a ton of ICs, so might as well, right?

    I actually don't even know when my real period would have come. My first cycle off bcp was so long (108 days) that I don't even know if my 9 day LP was reliable or just a fluke because it was my first cycle off the pill. My second cycle I got pregnant and then miscarried and now here I am on my third cycle pregnant again. This cycle I was also taking herbs and drinking a special tea so I'm thinking that would have made my LP a little longer.

    I'm currently at 16dpo and I'm pretty sure I would have already had my period by now. Also, my OB said that during week 4 it is really common to spot pink or brown (probably because this is when most of us would be getting our period).

    Thank you!  And I feel the same way -- may as well keep testing until all the tests in my house are gone.  :)

    Me too! I am officially two days late (always been crazy regular) so it really is sinking in that this is real now!

    I tested today at 10dpo. After Tuesday (when AF would show), it will feel more real. I can't wait.
