7DP5DT and trying to hold back

I am 7DP5DT and am desperately trying to hold back early testing. All I feel is heaviness in the stomach from time to time, super hungry, a little stomach cramp today morning, nausea in the evening since 2 days and excessive discharge (though this has been the case for a while now). I am fretting whether or not it has worked. Should I give in and test early or should I hold on till 27th i.e. OTD?

Help me ladies.

Hey! I’m also in my TWW but holding off until Sunday (myOTD). There are still so many hormones in our systems that the result of the test, + or - , won’t be reliable. I think it will be better to have a true picture on OTD than be misled by an early test. Having said that, I soooo get the desire to test. I’m having to distract myself constantly. Good luck 🍀

It’s a similar problem with me. I am trying to not test and hold on for the longest period. I have also been reading the symptoms toooooo much I guess. Can’t wait for this suspense to get over. Just hoping for the positive for both of us. I’ve got to test on Tuesday. Do let me know your result too.

I think you should hold off till 11dp5dt, it is a testing day for most of the clinics. At that time your result will be correct x
