I have had a lot of miscarriages in the last few years and one child from that time
Sometimes i could see faint lines from 7dpo, more like in the evening and an uncertain shadow at first. But with DD, I couldn't see a line at all until 11dpo.
I did have symptoms though so I wasn't surprised. I remember testing early and thinking 'show me what I know' every morning.

Far too early. Dont test til your period is late!

Serious- step away from the tests.

8dpo is ridiculously early to test. It takes at least 10 days from ovulation for a fertilised egg to implant and your body to start producing the hcg hormone for a test to pick up on. You will drive yourself mad. Just wait a week.

Yes, virtually everyone who has got pregnant.

Most people who test positive at 8dpo have got their dates wrong.
