Recent BFP'ers, do come in...

Hello ladies! I was just curious, how soon after xdpxdt did you poas/frer? Did you have/feel any symptoms? I need something to reference before I decide when it would be "safe" to do one myself, being that we transferred two beautiful embies last week. Thanks :-)

Re: Recent BFP'ers, do come in...

  • I tested 5dp5dt and got a negative, the next day 6dp5dt I tested and got a very faint positive which continued to darken daily. Best wishes to you!!!

    My advice, 5 days post transfer can still be way early. I caused myself so much stress over that negative that day thinking it was a bust. Hold off 2 to 3 more days if you can! And I had zero symptoms and still don't and I'm 10 weeks going strong. Good luck!

  • Waited until 6dp5dt, light, but not a squinter. Transferred one frozen blast. 

    I hoped to wait until 7dp5dt, but bought the tests the night before and couldn't wait.

    Good luck!!

  • I tested at 9dp3dt and got a light but definitely clear positive. I had no symptoms at that time, I was just too anxious to wait for my beta! I will be 7 weeks tomorrow and I still have barely any symptoms. My boobs are bigger and a little sore, I have some shortness of breath when I do anything active, and I am more tired than normal. I also am noticing some sensitivity to strong smells and flavors, but no puking yet!

    I first tested at 7dp5dt on a Wondfo and got a positive. Tested the next day on a FRER and also got a positive. I've continued to test daily as I approach beta (which is today)! As far as symptoms go....sore boobs especially around the nipple area, AF like cramping, moodiness, hot flashes, increased hunger, slightly more tired. 

    I would say waiting a few more days until you test. But remember that even if you get a negative, it's not over until beta says so! GL!!!

  • Very strong positive at 7dp5dt. I had very sore breasts but PIO also causes that. Good luck!!
  • I am a poas addict.  I bought wondfos in an increment of 50 for cheap on amazon so I figured why not test early.   I started testing on 3dp6dt since I got a faint faint positive the night of 4dp5dt and this time, the embryo is a day older.  I was fully prepared for a negative, you kinda have-to-be that early anyways.  I am pretty good at convincing myself it is too early so it didn't hurt me to test and get a negative in the beginning. It was negative throughout the day and then by the evening, there was a faint faint squinter of a positive.  It was  little darker but still a squinter on the morning of 4dp6dt.  I bought a bunch of FRERs and figured I would try it.  I got a faint positive, not with FMU.  I tried a digi, yesterday 6dp6dt and it said pregnant.  For some reason, the FMU is usually fainter so I find if I pee in the morning and minimally drink anything, then pee a few hours later, it was darker.  GL!  If it's negative, don't give up.  You aren't out until the beta.

  • Thank you for all your comments, ladies! It does give me hope (even though, you're all right, I wouldn't know right now with a test). I am going to wait till Wednesday to frer and will let you all know what happens. Beta is next week Monday, and I am doing all I can to stay calm. My mind is a little crazy because I keep going back and forth 'am I in, am I out', I'm just a little psycho right now LOL! Thank you so much everyone!
