Feeling like a fool took a test only 8dpo! Snap me out of it!!!

So I'm 8dpo, and swore up and down I wouldn't test until my AF was late this time. I've never tested this early before, but this month I've had absolutely none of the symptoms I've previously thought would result in a bfp.

I usually get sore boobs say after ov, and a large amount of creamy cm on 4/5dpo. This month I've had absolutely none of that, and I got it in my head that maybe this lack of symptoms was a good sign. I know I'm definitely not our yet, just feel like a t@#! for even bothering to poas.

Anyway, trying to keep my hope alive, has anyone got a bfp in the month where they didn't have their usual tww symptoms (which I guess means it's usual pms)....

Amazing news @Pbubz , congrats!

I use the easy@ home tests as well and have had a few evaps with them, but it looked like you had loads so helpful to know it was true for you!

Good luck with the pregnancy :)

How is everyone else getting on? My previous comment probably sounded ungrateful, I'm not I'm v happy it just hasn't sunk in yet and I have moments of thinking, oh god will I be any good at this?!

overthinkersanonnymus · 27/03/2023 13:47

Pitstop1986 · 27/03/2023 12:29

I'm 9dpo and tested this morning, despite me telling myself that I'd wait until at least 10dpo!

Stark white negative!

Ahh I'm sorry to hear that! Enjoyed chatting on this thread with you, sometimes being on here is so stressful when ttc though as supportive as it can be! Time to start another month, wishing all the best!! Xx

BFN for me. I'm 10/11 dpo so I'm out for this cycle.

I'm glad it's over to be honest, it's been a stressful one lol.

Good luck everyone! Xx

@overthinkersanonnymus I did and there was nothing there on 2 of them and a shadow on another easy@home so I'm staying as reserved as possible!

I wonder what tomorrow will bring for us... I'll be 11dpo

overthinkersanonnymus · 26/03/2023 19:18

Hey @Pbubz I actually just did a wee science experiment and retested under the same conditions as yesterday. so same time, steamy bathroom etc, with two tests, and not even a sniff of a line

Have you retested this afternoon?

Thanks @overthinkersanonnymus trying not to get ahead of myself. Hope you get a bfp soon! This was my first month using opk strips as opposed to the clear blue digital, so if it is positive I'd probably credit the strips with getting the timing right

overthinkersanonnymus · 26/03/2023 10:55

@Pbubz @GlitterDragon both look positive to me!! Tentative congratulations 🎉

@overoverthinkersanonnymus I have and I think I'm being trolled! The "shadows" are pretty much the same, I will test later today (obviously 🤣)

Have you tested? How are you feeling? I still don't have any symptoms at all....

@Pbubz have you retested? 🤞🏻

Ohhh nooo I had so much faith in my wondfos! Thanks for the heads up though. I don't think I'd be able to hold off testing as long as I have them in the cupboard. When they're gonna I'll try not to buy any and won't test before 12/13 dpo 🤞🤞

OP posts:
overthinkersanonnymus · 25/03/2023 21:13

Arseholes!! I've had bad pink evaps with wondfo as well so I can't go back to them.

And I'll be damned if I'm buying FRER for my addiction ha!!

Next month I might really really try to not test and just wait till my period comes. See how well that works out 🥴

@overthinkersanonnymus absolutely no shame amongst us poas addicts!! I like wondfo and premom cus I've never had an indent or evap on them, but have some easy@home left so still use them. I didn't realise how bad they could be but since I got a pink evap last month I've seen loads of posts on here and reddit with the same thing. Stupid things!!!

OP posts:
overthinkersanonnymus · 25/03/2023 21:06

@Pbubz I'm ashamed to say I retested after 2 hours lol!!

I knew that was an evap even though it was pink. I honestly don't know why I keep buying that brand. I'm a mug!!

What time are you testing 😂

And it's far too dark for 8/9 dpo plus I tested 12 hours ago and it was stark white.

I'm going with evap. Sorry for the interruption, resume your evenings 😂😂😂

Lol "as you were!" I'm holding off another couple hours dying of thirst this is defo not healthy but I'm embracing the crazy 🤣 hoping this is both our months
