Pregnant after IF

To test or not to test....

Hi ladies! I don't normally post here (actually I've taken somewhat of a bump break recently)but hopefully soon I will be able to :). Anyway I just wanted to ask when you ladies first tested following ET. I am currently 13dp3dt and am due for blood work on Monday but DH and I both want to test early so we can know the result together. I just wanted to know how early others tested as I don't want to test too soon but I don't think I can wait much longer!!!

Re: To test or not to test....

  • Hello :) I also had my testing set for a Monday but also couldn't wait and POAS Saturday night....then again Sunday morning just to make sure Haha GL with everything!

  • It is certainly not too early to test. Tests are usually accurate by 14dpo or equivalent . Good luck!
  • Yes you are good to go test. Both my positives were at the equivalent of 10dpo, which seems pretty common, and you're 16+ now. Go pee! :)
