I stayed hopeful until AF. Or, in my case this cycle since it's CD 94, when my blood work and ultrasound showed no pregnancy.
Wow! 94 days!!! I can't imagine. I hope AF finally showed for you so u can get your BFP already
Haha, yeah. No it still hasn't shown, today is CD 94. And I still have 2 weeks till my follow-up appointment when I will hopefully be prescribed Provera to start a new cycle. Blah.
PCOS with long, irregular cycles First round of Clomid in May 2012= BFP #1, DD born January 2013 BFP #2 in January 2014, DS born September 2014
I give up after a BFN on 13 or 14 DPO.. I have had a BFN before my BFP for baby number 2 so its entirely possible to still get a BFP but at some point your mind goes into denial and you lose all hope.

I have a teensy bit of hope until CD3. Lat year when I was pregnant, I thought I had gotten AF, but I only bled for two days and then stopped. Every month a tiny part of me hopes that AF will just stop the next day and I'll get a BFP.
Once AF shows up. Weve only been doing this for about six months, but I haven't even taken a test yet. After lurking for awhile, I promised I wouldnt test until AF was late.. and it hasn't been yet.
Finished BC and not preventing since June 2010.
Actively trying for baby #1 since July 2011.

Uh oh...you might be giving me motivation to keep on testing
Glad I went to Dollar Tree today, those FRERs were really adding up

Oh wow! You have a lot of self control! I hope soon, you will have to test and get your BFP!
I tested yesterday at 10dpo and again today, both BFN. I am pretty close to giving up hope since I should get AF on Monday. I'm only on cycle 2 so I shouldn't be so upset, but it sucks.
I also have been having problems sleeping for the last week so I haven't even been able to temp so I have no idea if my temps are still up or going down, I think that is why this is bothering me so much...just not knowing what my body is doing right now.

Seeing a neg test would be super depressing to me, I'd rather just hold out hope until AF. Plus, those things are expensive..

I don't give up hope until AF arrives. After my first month TTC when I peed on everything I won't even keep a pregnancy test in the house. I promised myself I will go buy one when AF is finally late.......this is only bc I drove myself crazy the first month. Good luck!
If I test the day before AF is due and I feel crampy and see my temps start to drop, my hope is gone
This is me, too. It's more the temp drop than the BFN (although, those suck) that makes me lose hope. My temp drops slowly for 3 days. So, I know I'm "not out until AF shows" but the logical side of me knows its over.
I am still hopeful until AF comes, even when my temp dips and I start spotting...I'm an optimist that way!

Re: When do you give up hope for BFP?
Mrs. Bio (with FOR SALE items)
First round of Clomid in May 2012= BFP #1, DD born January 2013
BFP #2 in January 2014, DS born September 2014
Wow! 94 days!!! I can't imagine. I hope AF finally showed for you so u can get your BFP already
I agree and that's what I told myself yesterday at 13 DPO so today my BFN took that hope!
Haha, yeah. No it still hasn't shown, today is CD 94. And I still have 2 weeks till my follow-up appointment when I will hopefully be prescribed Provera to start a new cycle. Blah.
First round of Clomid in May 2012= BFP #1, DD born January 2013

I wallow in self-pity after a 12 DPO BFN. I'm pessimistic that way....
