Hi Girls,
Last Friday my bloodwork came back negative for pregnancy after doing my first round of Follistim & Ovidrel + TI. Nurse said that I should expect my period in a few days. I had some light brown/pink spotting for a couple of days with cramps, back ache and sore boobs so I figured AF was on the way. Then nothing came of it, I never got an actual period. Out of curiosity this morning I took a pregnancy test and it came back BFP. I guess my question is, I didn't think bloodwork could be wrong...I triggered 12/12 so that puts my expected ovulation somewhere around 12/13-12/15. And they did the bloodwork 12/27 with a resounding negative and told me to call them when I got AF so we could move on to full blown injections with IUI this cycle. What do you think? Im ready to buy every brand preg test and try them tomorrow morning haha I know i'm acting like a crazy person but I refuse to get excited because of the negative bloodwork...thoughts?????
Re: Can a blood test be wrong? (Possible BFP mentioned)

I agree with @ksgmu. You could have ovulated later, so when they did the blood test your hormone levels weren't high enough to be considered pregnant.
Take another test tomorrow with FMU and if it's positive, call your RE.

**ALL** Welcome
First, what brand of HPT did you get a + on? If it was a wondfo, I would google the lot # to see if it might be a faulty test. Like you I would probably be buying a bunch of HPTs to test again with.
That being said, if you triggered on 12/12, you should have ovulated 12/14 (36ish hours later). That means your blood work was done 13 DPO, which should be pretty accurate. That being said my clinic does 1st betas for IVF cycles 8dp5dt (or 13 DPO). Everyone, even women that their first beta was negative, have to go back for 2nd betas. One of the nurses said that they have had one woman have a negative 1st beta (<5) and a positive second beta and go on to have a healthy pregnancy. So it is possible.
