See now for me i will usually test, sounds dumb but when i see that neg, i know af is comming and i dont worry about it anymore, for me for all my pg i got a positive at 10dpo, and for all 4 the symptoms were different, only one of them did i have no symptoms AT ALL. The funny thing is i usually test at like 7 or 8dpo, its way to early but it tricks me into thinking af will be here and i dont worry about it the rest of the time, i guess if af did not show i would be shocked lol.
What were your symptoms? No, i am not SS....just curious...
Which preg test brand did u use?
I usually want to test early so that i can give myself permission to be bad...
I have never tested before 10 dpo, though...I end up just giving myself permission to be bad, anyway....
LOL, the first one, i had sore boobies at 4dpo, i was a little crampy and very very grumpy by 10dpo, the funny thing was i tested that morning, and it was bfn, and then i came home that night and DH asked if i was pg because i was soooooo snotty, and i tested again and BFP, the second one OMG, my boobies hurt sooooooo bad by 10dpo, i could not stand it, i would get out of bed in the morning and i would have to hold them lol. I also had really bad cramps and some bleeding, as a matter of fact, we had done an IUI and the day before our blood test for hcg, i went to the bathroom and i wiped and blood, i thought af had shown and i was really ticked, the next day nothing was there, so i tested and bfp. The third time i had NO symptoms at all, we had done another IUI and the week before the pg test i was so sure i was out, i felt nothing at all, and just for the heck of it the night before the blood test, i tested and bfp, shocked the crud out of me. That one went the longest, 9 weeks, and i remember i was craving egg rolls, and fried eggs, and i could not stand the thought or smell of sweet stuff, ewwwww. The last one, i just had cramps and i was really tired. For all of them i either used a First Response, or a Dollar store cheap test. I love the cassette ones, you can order them off of Amazon for really cheap, or get them at a dollar store, they are very sensitive, and work great.
Sometimes i test before 10 dpo because i feel weird things and i want to get that thought out of my head that it could be a bfp, so i test, knowing it will be neg, and that eases the obsession for me lol.
