why did I POAS?

It was of course a BFN....10dpo.  I tested after I saw a significant temp increase this morning. Ive been tired all weekend, thirsty and crampy...my nips are sore too. Of course, the magnitude of these symptoms could be mental. Here is my question.  IF I were to be KU and these symptoms are *real*, wouldn't a HPT pick up at least 25 of hcg? I wonder why I *think* I am symptomatic, yet IF I were KU, my hcg is obviously under 25.

    I know it's hard, just wait it out a little longer...of course this is coming from someone who has been known to test at 9dpo, and of course that is assuming that I actually O in that given month :)

    You POAS because you're human and the thought of waiting just a few more days is gut wrenching. DH (bless his heart) always asks me why I test too early. "Honey, you know it's going to be negative this early." I think I like to test early because if it's negative I can say, well there's still a chance. Hang in there!!

    Some HPTs are stronger then others and a lot of the times it is the rise in progesterone causing "symptoms" not necessarily HCG... Hang in there 10dpo is WAY early!!!

    I POAS this morning and it is 11dpo for me... negative.  Symptoms suck... they mess with your head.  I wish there was something your body would do that would tell you for sure that you were pregnant...

    I'm a lot like you - notorious early tester and then I ask myself why???  10dpo is so early still, just please hang on a few more days and maybe test Wed or Thursday.  I really hope your symptoms are real!  GL!

    I know this is bad info for the POAS Lovers Club but I took two Answer brand tests on 11dpiui and got a positive. I also took an Equate afterwards and got a negative. I took a CBE digital the next morning with FMU and got a negative. My beta was drawn on 12dpiui and it was at a 10. Apparently, it detects the smallest amount oh HCG. Even more than a $tree cheapy.

     GL!! It's still really early.
