How soon can I test?

[MrsQxx]

Hey everyone!

This is all new to me but was I hoping to make some friends who are also TTC as everyone around me are getting bored of my obsession to get pregnant and I feel like I’m just annoying them now

I already have a son who is 6. Unfortunately I miscarried in May this year. I’ve been trying to conceive ever since but so far no luck. I’ve completely stopped buying the clearblue tests as I’ve had quite a few false positives and it’s heartbreaking!

I’m currently 6dpo if my OPK was correct and I’m dying to POAS but trying to control myself. I have 2 FRER’s waiting to be used in the box so my question is when would you recommend I do one? I’ve been feeling and being sick for the past couple of days, extremely tired and my head is pounding. I’m due next Saturday (08/01/22)

Baby dust to you all x

Hi @MrsQxx sorry to hear about your miscarriage I would try and wait a few days if you can, some people do get a bfp early but most implantation doesn't happen until 8-10dpo. I got my bfp last time at 11dpo and my test was completely blank at 10dpo! Good luck x

Thank you so much for responding! I couldn’t hold the urge yesterday and ended up doing one of the FRER’s but of course it was negative but will do another in a few days. I’m still feeling really nauseous and I’m struggling to eat anything, also have extremely dry skin on my face which I’ve only ever had when I was pregnant with my son so hopefully it’s a good sign fingers crossed

Happy new year x

As hard as it feels, it is so much better if you test when you are late for your period. All this early testing is really not good for mental health.

I hope you get your positive soon.

I usually test at about 11dpo. Any earlier and I wouldn't trust the negative result. Some people do get positives earlier but then they also get false negatives.
