It's still early and seeing "not pregnant:" on the digital is a real heart breaker. Wait just a few more days. You can do it!!!

Re: 10 DPO and want to test so badly...
This should help. I am also 10dpo and it's my birthday so I decided to test because that would be the best birthday present ever. BFN! Of course now, I'm thinking I'm out for the month and I'm bummed. So just hold off!! Hope that helped!

Re: 10 DPO and want to test so badly...
You gotta just wait it out because getting a BFN is very disappointing. I went through it last month except mine turned out to be a chemical....on a Friday 6 tests came up BFP and then on Sat and Sunday I took 3 tests on each day and they all came up BFN.

What is the deal with the chemical thing? I was told there is no such thing as a false positive? But I hear about this chemical and it confuses me. Does this happen just when you test too early? Can someone please explain this to me?

A chemical is not a false positive. You are right, there is no such thing as a false positive. You either have the hcG in your bloodstream or not. A chemical is pregnancy that just didn't take VERY early on. Basically, you were *pregnant* for a just a bit but for whatever reason it didn't progress..........a super early miscarriage that if you didn't test you just would have mistaken for a late period. It is fairly common. See below for more info. 
What Is A Chemical Pregnancy?
A chemical pregnancy is the clinical term used for a very early miscarriage. In many cases, the positive pregnancy test was achieved before the woman’s period was due but a miscarrige occured before a heartbeat was able to be seen on an ultrasound.
With the ultra sensitive pregnancy tests on the market today, it is easier than ever to get a positive result 3 or 4 days before your period is due. It is wonderful for those who NEED to know, but does have it’s down side. Early testing shows chemical pregnancies which would not have been detected had the woman waited for her period to arrive.
Chemical pregnancies are unfortunately very common. 50 to 60% of first pregnancies end in miscarriage very early in pregnancy. Most occur without the woman even knowing that she was pregnant.
What Causes a Chemical Pregnancy
Most chemical pregnancies are due to chromosomal problems in the developing fetus. Other possible causes are inadequate uterine lining, uterine abnormalities both congenital or acquired like fibroids, low hormone levels, luteal phase defect or certain infections.
How can I Prevent Chemical Pregnancies
Most chemical pregnancies can not be prevented. If you have recurring chemical pregnancies, your doctor should be able to investigate and help you formulate a treatment which is best for you. Potential treatments include vitamin B6 (at least 50mg a day), progesterone cream, and baby asprin. Be sure to discuss potential treatments with your doctor.
If infection is the cause, antibiotics prescribed by your Doctor can help.

Everytime I heard something about being a chemical... i just assumed it was some sort of chemical in the body that was making the pregnancy test come up as positive when it wasn't. This clears SO MUCH up for me!! Thank You for that information!!!!
