I am either 4 or 6 dpo.....
We’ve all been there with the easy testing eh 😂 ... just wanna know now many days longer I have to sit on my hands for..
And I can’t just wait for AF because she doesn’t come very often so I could be waiting weeks!
Thanks 😀

Wait til at least 12-14. Realistically nothing is going to show just now 🤞

If you know for sure when you ovulated, you can expect AF around 14 days later.

The part of your cycle from ovulation to AF shouldn’t change (much), it’s the bit leading up to ovulation that can be irregular and (sometimes) last bloody ages!

I got a pack of 30 "one step" strips online so I could test as early as I liked, I'd wasted so many supermarket tests it was costing me a fortune (and I was worrying about the plastic waste lol). I didn't get my first BFP squinter till 14dpo though, I sometimes wonder if pregnancy test manufacturers like to let people think they can test super early so we end up wasting them and having to buy more.

I'd wait until 12DPO minimum.

This is useful. At 12DPO 85% of pregnant women will get a positive test.
