And got a posotive result and if so how many days past ovulation. Just want to see if they actually work. Some reckon you can get a pos result as early as 3 days [cynicalface]

MaddyD - I got a positive 9 days after conception, which was CD25 for me. What day are you in your cycle right now?

Lizzylou · 28/06/2005 08:21

Can I ask what brand of test you have used???

anchovies · 28/06/2005 08:24

I got a positive 4 days before af was due using a first response from boots

maddyd · 28/06/2005 08:31

only 8 dpo. But i bought one of those tests that say you can test as early as 7dpo. Foolish Just been on Fertitly friend and the say not to test really till at least 12 dpo as everyone ovulates diffrent.

yes I did althou I used it the day after AF was due up until then had BFN's but two the day after were BFP's think it depends on your body,

QueenFlounce · 28/06/2005 10:04

Lizzylou - I used Boots Own Brand test...... 8 of them.

Lizzylou · 28/06/2005 10:07

QF, LOL, I used 4 the first time I was PG with DS!!! But 8??!! Do you have shares in Boots??

anchovies · 28/06/2005 10:08

QF, I have done 7 over the past week, dh thought I was mental but now I know I'm normal! (ish!)

Nemo1977 · 28/06/2005 10:10

i got pos resutly at 9 days past ov and it is true...either that or i am 15wks fatter

dramaqueen72 · 28/06/2005 10:10

have used those tests, they can claim such early results because 'some' people have had a result then, for most people its the same amount of time as usual. i did get a FAINT line -almost not there- at 9DPO, but it was 11/12 days before it really shone thro.

Nemo1977 · 28/06/2005 10:11

meant to say day later i got a positive on a clearblue digi.

Lizzylou · 28/06/2005 10:46

Have just got a very faint line on a First response one...am off to the chemists to buy some more! I am due on today.........

Nemo1977 · 28/06/2005 10:47

Only thing i would say be careful of is evaporation lines as they can be very convincing especially if u r looking for the coveted BFP

anchovies · 28/06/2005 10:48

Congrats Lizzylou!! Does that mean you'll be joining the very quiet due in march thread?!!

Lizzylou · 28/06/2005 10:49

Hope so! The line is faint tho, I will go on a mission to the chemists soon!

anchovies · 28/06/2005 10:50

My first response line was v faint too at first but definitely there. 7 various tests later I am sure!

anchovies · 28/06/2005 10:51

Keep us updated!

Lizzylou · 28/06/2005 10:52

Cripes, this is going to be expensive...a job for the joint account I think! Will let you know...

maddyd · 28/06/2005 11:02

Maddyd - Sorry you suffered a m/c.

Good luck for this month!

maddyd · 28/06/2005 11:23

Thankyou Qf. It totally shocked me. After 3 healthy pregnancies im afraid i took pregnancy for granted. Never again.

So is there still hope for me then this cycle. Dramaqueen how faint exactly was the 9dpo test, was it a hod it up to the window and squint kinda of line.

The only problem i see with early detection pregnancy test is that a certain (and quite high) proportion of pregnancys are naturally aborted in the first month, without the woman even realising, by doing an early test you could just be setting yourself up for a fall, its better to wait when there is less risk of a mc and therefore less heartache at the end of it.

staceym11 · 28/06/2005 11:31

And i think your all crazy doing 7/8 tests, more money than sense me thinks????? lol! i did 2 with my dd i was 17 and my mother in law didnt believe me so had to do 2nd, but had only brought two coz they were on offer in tesco and two clear blue ones were cheaper than one (no i dont understand that either!!!!) but whatever turns you on, its probably just better to wait until your period is due and then the result will be for certain!!!

maddyd · 28/06/2005 11:36

You are completely right of course Stacey. These are only cheap tests though off e bay. After the mc i got 20 for under a tenner.

Nemo1977 · 28/06/2005 11:39

M my test was faint that i was convinced i could see it but dh kept telling me there was nothing there...was though..lol I can understand about over testing cos of mc i have had 3 in past and even now with being 15wks and owning a doppler i get urge to test..lol
