Negative test at 12 DPO, could it still turn positive?

So for the last year by periods have been like clockwork, I get spotting at 10 DPO and then period starts 12/13 DPO. I’m currently 12 DPO on and I’m still testing negative using clear blue rapid detect? No sign of AF and I have quite a few symptoms! Is it possible to get a negative today and possible still get a positive?

It is possible but unlikely if you've used an early detection test which has more sensitivity to the pregnancy hormone. How did you confirm the day of ovulation, OPK, temping?
I have been TTC a while now and while I was sure my cycle was very clockwork like as you say, I know my ovulation day and cycle length can vary by a couple of days or so each way some months.

Hope it's a positive month for you ❤️

Yeah I didn’t use an early one I used the clear blue which I think is 25 ? I havnt tested today but I have ALOT of symptoms that I had with both my previous pregnancy’s. Of course this cycle was the only one where I didn’t track using opks just tracked CM so I could well be out by a day or two

Oooh that does sound good, I'm hoping those tests turn positive for you! I have been using OPKs as best I can and also monitoring CM, I've found that the most fertile CM usually appears 2-3 days before ovulation for me, although I think it can vary person to person and also cycle to cycle x
