To test, or not to test, that is the question...

How early did you get a BFP? I'm already feeling the same symptoms I've had with my other pregnancies, but I haven't missed my period yet. I don't want to test too early, but our doctor also told me to test the moment I suspect I'm pregnant so she can start monitoring my quants (some of you call them "betas") immediately. My wonderfully adorable DH, in his excitement, bought 4 tests that are meant to be used 5 days before a missed period just so I can check as soon as possible. Could they work as early as 9DPO?

I got a positive on 9 dpo with my CP. If youre worried about wasting tests, I would wait til 10-11 dpo.

I got a BFP at 7dpo this pregnancy and 9dpo with my first.

I tested 8 dpo and 10 dpo. Didn't get my positive test until 12 dpo. But I know people get BFPs earlier. I'm with PP though, wait until 10 or 11 dpo. Then you have one test for each day up until the last possible day before your LP ends.  

Good luck!!

The more important question is, how do you have pregnancy tests in your house that haven't been peed on?! Test!

I got a very faint positive at 7dpo and it was much darker at 11dpo. Everyone is different but if you have the test already...go pee!!!! You can always test again later.

I got my BFP on CD27. My cycles are usually 28-30 days long.

I got a neg at 9 DPO, but a pos at 11DPO.

I tested negative at 6dpo and positive at 10 and 11 dpo!

I'd probably test tomorrow morning and then every day after

Thank you so much beautiful moms! I tested this morning and got a BFN. I will test again in a couple of days. Fingers crossed for a BFP before the end of the week - I really want to join you ladies. Everyone here is so nice!! Hoping to update with a proper introduction and announcement in a few days.

Can't wait to see more moms join the board!
