Re: testing

I tested between 9 and 10 DPO and got a BFP.

but it's really up to you. Some like to wait until at least 12 DPO and other's not until AF is due or late!

8 DPO could be slightly too early. If you get down and disappointed with BFN's then I would wait at least a few more days.

I tested early because i wanted to drink that night and needed to know if I could indeed drink it up!

Re: testing

I agree with the PP. Testing at 8DPO could lead to major disappointment. I would wait until the earliest 10DPO but if you could hold out for a few days past that even better. I tested at 10DPO with a cheapie, FRER and a digital and got my BFP but each girl is different.

Re: testing

Hold out as long as you can! I used to get so annoyed when people told me this but I tested at 10 dpo and got a BFN and it was really upsetting. At 12dpo I got a very, very faint second line.

Re: testing

I got my super faint BFP at 9dpo. However, it took me and a team of girlfriends to decide whether we were seeing things or not. It was definitely confirmed the next morning. 9dpo is definitely NOT the norm, but possible.

Re: testing

Both times I got a BFP I saw a faint line at 9DPO.

However, there are a lot of women who aren't able to see even a faint line until much later like 12 or 13DPO.

So basically, try to hold out as long as you can so you aren't disappointed. Chat Icon

Try to hold out as long as you can. At the earliest I would test around 10 or 11DPO to prevent dissappointment. If you can wait until AF is due or late even better. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
