BFP 8 days before missed period - twins?!

Hi!
First time posting on this after stalking for a long time!!
First month ttc and had sore boobs from 10 days before missed period - got my BFP 8 days before and has continued to darken (I’m now 3 days before).
I used OPKs 3 times a day from day 9 of my usually 32 day cycle and no surge detected so was a huge shock to find out, especially so early!
Is this normal? Is it a good/bad sign? Or a sign of twins? I’ve done a digital and its confirmed I’m only 1-2 weeks.
I’m terrified of mc as it’s all so new!
Many thanks x

Might be. Might not. Personally I wouldn't ever test this early as it could easily be chemical or not progress. Good luck though

I got a positive 8 days before my period with my first DD, not twins.

Also got a early one with this pregnancy at 7 days before period which was a really strong line.. not been for a scan yet but I don’t think it will be twins.

There’s a chance, but there’s also a chance if you didn’t get an early positive- there’s never a really good early indicator of twins until they’re found on a scan 🙈

I know there is always a chance but I thought lines progressing darker was generally a positive sign?

Ah thank you, that’s reassuring!! All the best with your pregnancy ☺️

It could be, it also probably isn't. You may have ovulated slightly earlier than you anticipated and then it implanted swiftly etc.

Days before period isn't as important as days post ovulation - I had twins and got a BFP 9DPO

Very faint positive 6DPO and I'm now 23 weeks with twins. I knew it as soon as I seen that positive test, somehow I just knew
