Been lurking a few months, first post - what a bummer.

I'm 9-10 DPO (honestly can't remember now...) and got some of the First Reponses that test 6 days early. BFN.

Such a bummer - as this is the first cycle I've actually had 'symptoms' - having to pee every 30 mins, overwhelming nausea on Tuesday night, cramping in lower abdomen.... Hubby and I were so excited to test, that today over lunch we couldn't wait anymore and bought some during my lunch hour. Took one in the bathroom at work... big fat negative. *sigh*

I'm totally addicted to this forum now though, your encouragement and motivation is inspiring!!!

Well remember that the 6 days before your MISSED period(which is what the box really says if you look close) means 10 dpo and even then there is still a great deal of women that won't test ++ until 11 or 12 dpo, depending on when it implants. I forget the percentages but they are on the insert I believe.

So don't give up yet. Personally, the one thing I've discovered after having 4 m/cs this past year is that the cycles I felt nauseous I was never pregnant and the cycles I got +++ the only symptoms I had were some cramping and increased CM. We're all different though.

Good Luck, and don't give up just yet.

Thank you heart4home. I try not to get myself worked up that I'll get a BFP, but I can't help but get excited when I've got real symptoms. Well, they 'seemed' real.

Still peeing at least once an hour - it's driving me nuts! Also got nauseous out of nowhere last night when I laid down to go to sleep, then it disappeared as quickly as it came. Thoughts anyone?

I know it's really hard, but try to just enjoy the next few days and then test again if AF hasn't come! It has been really hard for me, but I just keep thinking about how much more sure the test will be if I take it tomorrow, rather than a few days ago, like I wanted to. (I did take one about 10DPO... BFN of course!)
