Tempted to test early

Hey everyone. So my 2ww is nearly up. Test date is 23rd but I really want to test today. Any ideas? If I do test early is it best to test first thing in morning?

It is best to test with the first urine if the morning as you have higher levels of the hcg hormone then. But, I would definitely try to keep yourself busy and wait until 23rd as you are more likely to get an accurate result then.

Good luck! x

Don't do it. If you get a positive you will doubt it and do a million other tests until OFT anyway. If you get a negative you will immediately feel the loss and believe it is all over but secretly hope it will change and test again on OTD. Don't add to your own stress and just wait until the 23rd.

Best of luck for OTD. xxx

Hi Hannahlou1989. As the others have said, do try and wait until the 23rd, and first wee of the day please! Just try and keep busy to keep your mind off it and good luck! Diane
