13 DPO (I'm new!)

[cleeann]

Hey geys.. I'm Courtney. I'm 13 DPO. How long should I wait to test? Which tests are the best? Any advice? This is my first cycle TTC.

Best of luck ladies. Hope everyone gets their BFP's this month.

Hello lovely welcome!
I'm 12dpo and starting to test now, I personally find it very hard waiting! I buy tests when they are on offer and internet cheapies in bulk as it's good to have a mix I think.
My app tells me when I should begin to test and also countdown to pregnancy has some good calculators to give you an idea of when to (going by the length of your cycles etc.)
Just remember everyone is different and there is no real right or wrong some girls test mega early and get positive results and others Hcg goes undetected for much longer so it really depends on you. (I try not to get too disheartened by the negatives but it can be hard.)

Goodluck and baby dust to you x

i personally learned my lesson a couple of cycles ago, and i'd only test when af is late.

I had a chemical last month and im not testing until a week or 2 after af is late. Fertility friend says 18 dpo is best. If you test now i would use a sensitive test it shoulf say 10 miu on the box which means its senstive for early testing

I didnt get a bfp until 20dpo last time so I'll be waiting until around then this time. I feel less defeated when AF shows vs BFN
