I would really appreciate some advice about testing!:)

Gcrebel2006

Hi ladies, I am a newbie, and I would really appreciate any advice you guys have to offer. I am ttc and I haven't begin charting yet. I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what day I should begin testing. I have a 28 day cycle and I believe I am at 11 dpo and 5 days before my missed period. Is it too early to get a bfp with a frer? I am so anxious to test and I am really having a hard time waiting! Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks! And good luck to everyone!

So

1. If you think you are pregnant, test.

2. It's better to wait until the day AF is due.

3. It's hard to know when AF is due, or when you ovulated, or IF you ovulated, or anything, without charting.

4. Learn about your body, learn about fertility, learn about charting.

Check out Fertility friend (click on my ticker) - take their charting course, and learn.

Good luck.

If i were you, i'd wait.

You could test now..or wait a few days. 14 DPO is better (although you really can't confirm O without temping).

 good luck!

Hi and welcome.  Most people will say wait till the day of your missed period, but you could get a BFP before that.  You could get one tomorrow or may not be pregnant, or may not have enough hormone to show up on a test yet.  So you decide.  I would test day of my missed period, hence my ticker that helps me with waiting!

This.  Plus a lot of people think they O on CD 14 or 15 with a 28 day cycle & that is not always true.

I would wait until after AF is due. I made the mistake of testing a few days early this cycle and it was clearly negative. It just made me really upset/depressed to see that. But if you don't mind seeing a BFN, then go for it!
