To test, or not to test... That is the question...

[pumpkin90]

I'm currently 13 dpo. AF due in 2 days. BFNs @ 8, 10, 11 dpo.. Symptoms: gassy, sore boobs, sore back, feel bloated, left eye twitch for past week, cramps. Last evening I had this crazy quick short electric feeling in my pelvic area.. Made me stop what I was doing...and small weird pinches on both sides before that for a few days. Anyways.. I'm sure there's stuff I'm missing but basically I'm wondering if I should test tonight or tomorrow or just wait until AF is due....

I started testing at 8dpo and got all BFN's until 16dpo (2 days after AF due) when I got a BFP. Next time I am trying to fall pregnant, I won't be testing so early!

Thx for the input

I've read that a pregnancy test can work 48 after implantation but implantation can happen from 6dpo to 12 dpo. If you took a tesr at 11 dpo but have only just implanted then you won't see the resut on a test yet.

Fingers crossed for a bfp

AF is due 16th here. 2 BFN thus far

Thanks guys. I managed to not cave and test tonight.. Maybe tomorrow morning? Or I'll try and stop myself from testing until AF is late. Fingers crossed it doesn't show it's ugly face at all this cycle! GL testing all of you BFPs!

I tested at 8 dpo because I am weak. Ever since then I've been testing like mad. I'd say wait. It may save your sanity, lol.

Af due today for me but got a temp rise? Weird cause it was slowly dropping the last few days. I haven't tested at all this cycle cause I really don't want to see a bfn! I'm trying to wait until Friday!

Is eye twitching a possible symptom?! My eye has been twitching non-stop for the past few days. I've been tired, too but I don't know how much more sleep I can get!

ok well i couldn't wait until Friday and tested this afternoon... I think I see a faint line??!! OMG! am I seeing things??
We have been trying for a year and I have never seen even a hint of a line!

 

[pumpkin90]

I've read from some that it is.. However I have no idea how that relates at all. Lol. Also, I've had a twitching eye for the past week and still do and just got AF today sad news... Next cycle..

I've read a lot about blue dye tests giving false negatives? I'll get a frer tomorrow!

I've read a lot give false positives, but I've never had a false positive personally and a blue dye test gave me my first real positive in my first pregnancy. It all depends on what works for you. However, to save the agony of a possible false positive, I'd definitely go with pink dye just in case.


ALSO, pumpkin, so sorry the got you. I hope you get your bfp soon.

Glad there are others in the same boat! I got BFNs 9, 10, 11 and 13dpo (Today, when AF is due). Have no more tests left so not testing again till Saturday (15 dpo) or if I can hold it out - Sunday! The wait is awful...
