Did something really stupid 😥

[MilliStew]

So 9DPO and stupidly decided to buy those new 5mlu pregnancy tests available on Amazon (please don't judge - I know it was not a good idea but am just so desperate for a BFP). I did it this afternoon and came back negative. Now I am so depro as surely at 9DPO my HCG can't be below 5 if I am pregnant? So guess I am out this month 😭Any other ladies used those tests before and were they wrong?

9 DPO is the very earliest you'd get a positive. You're testing too early as, even if this is the cycle you get pregnant, the egg may not have even implanted yet. Wait until your period is late, then test.

You're going to make yourself insane and miserable this way. If you're pregnant you will still be pregnant when your period is due. Don't test until you're due, or if possible until you're late.
