Hello ladies. I've been pregnant 6 times (once with twins) buy have only had one live birth (my daughter, now 2). My husband and I have never "tried" for a baby before so I've never had to do this whole TWW process.
I'm currently only 4 dpo so I still have a while before I should test even though I'll probably start around 8 dpo. How is everyone getting through this wait?! I'm normally such a patient person so this eagerness to find out ASAP is new to me.
Re: TWW sucks!
10 dpo : 35%
11 dpo : 51%
12 dpo : 62%
13 dpo : 68%
14 dpo : 74%
15 dpo : 80%
16 dpo : 88%
17 dpo : 92%
18 dpo : 99%
I would not waste a test at 8 dpo personally
^^agree! Considering implantation doesn't occur until 6-12 DPO, and then another 3 days after implantation to have enough hcg in your system to turn a test they very earliest would be 9, which is still wildly unlikely. Try to tough it out for another couple days especially if you know a bfn at 8dpo is gonna bring you down.

I'd wait a little longer than 8DPO-- implantation takes place anywhere from 7-10DPO.
I'm Not Trying/Not Preventing. So I usually just test once a month. I'm still breast feeding so my cycles are long & unpredictable. Keep yourself busy & avoid POAS early!

As others have said, 8dpo is pretty early, but I totally understand the impatience. Try to wait as long as possible to avoid the disappointment! Good luck!
