    Month/Cycle: 2/2

    CD/DPO: 21/5

    Timing: -3, -1, 0

    Typical LP length: 10 days, but that would make my cycle 26 days, which doesn't happen. So maybe my LP is longer now-I'm typically a straight 28 days kinda gal.

    Testing: I mean I shouldn't til Monday. But I have 1000 wondfos and the internet says I can get a positive as early as CD 9 so...you know I'm gonna test Sunday. Maybe even Saturday because I feel weird not dipping things in my pee after doing it for 16 straight days, lol.

    R/R: It's really lovely out today! We didn't go to the lake beach because it was supposed to storm but now its pretty nice out and I'm annoyed that I didn't.

    @SmashJam I would deserve getting blasted for this craziness, but according to this website 9% of pregnant women test positive as early as DPO 6 using wondfos. https://www.countdowntopregnancy.com/pregnancy-test/brand-chart.php?brandid=52 And that's tomorrow for you!

    *lurking from wto*

    @SmashJam @loveanddatadriven big caveat though is that data is most likely inaccurate because it's entirely self-reported and I'd wager many if not most of those 6dpos had actually ovulated earlier than they thought. Implantation generally occurs maaaaaybe 6dpo or later, and it takes a couple days for hcg levels to get high enough to turn a test. According to FF, the average day of first BFP in their users is 13.6dpo, with 10% of pregnancy charts having a positive at 10dpo. I know they have a detailed brand by brand chart too but my break is over and I can't find it lol.

    @loveanddatadriven lol why are you torturing me? I bet the only explanation for those is incorrect ovulation date recorded.

    @fantasyflyte very valid points. Self-reported data is always sketchier. And identifying O for even the most experienced is really hard without your own personal ultrasound. That fertilized egg needs time to float to the right place and implant, so I agree taking a test DPO 6 is crazy unless the tester isn’t sure about O-day.

    Logically, the best time for me to test is 2 days before expected AF, so I can choose my time to be disappointed instead of being blindsided by AF.

    @SmashJam I’m in the same boat with a thousand cheapies that are about to expire. Trying to wait until DPO 9 myself (2 days before expected AF), but I only used a couple OPKs (no temping) this time around so my DPOs might be off.

    @fantasyflyte we must have been typing at the same time with the same thoughts bc I missed your response earlier! I wouldn't expect a positive until 10dpo really. All signs point to a reasonably accurate O date so no out of the blue early positives possible here!!
