2WW Hell

[Summan]

Hi this is my second post regarding the 2WW as I cant take it anymore. I am on 7dp5dt and am debating whether to take a HPT tomorrow or Friday. My follow up appointment is not until Monday, surely my body will know by now? Has anyone tested early or should I avoid it??? Sending lots of love to all those on the 2WW as well. xxx

I'd try to avoid it, the only reason I tested early (by only 1 day) is because of hubby! Try to get to day 10/11 then if it's still bugging you do a hpt xx

Ok thanks, I will do HPT on Sunday then, one day before the appointment so I know the result at home. My nerves are coming and don't know how I will react if I have a negative test. Trying to stay positive. Thanks! xxx

Hey.

Noooooooooooooo!!!!!!

My friend had her implant 4 days before me, on Monday she was 14dp3dt no af and it was negative. She's gutted

Peeing on a stick isn't reliable, hang fire.

I'm now 12dp3dt if I make it to Monday I'll test . otd not till 15th when I'll be 18 days.

Today is day 33 if my cycle

Stay positive, take a deep breath after all, you you get the beta nothing is guaranteed

Sending you a massive hug and all the luck

I'd say wait til day before your OTD that's what I did, depends if you can wait that long as I struggled so much! Good luck 🙏🏽 xx

I would also say hold out as long as you can! I regretted testing early as soon as I'd done it! 😐 Xxx

Try to hold out, it takes a couple of weeks to get the trigger out of your blood system and this will give you a false read. You will then spend the rest of the 2ww in termoil waiting until your agreed date to do another. It's a sure way to drive you mad! Try to be strong and hold out Hun, wishing you all the best and good luck xx

Hi hun I'm in the same position and also am the same stage in 2ww (today is 8dp5dt.) I am thinking of testing on Sunday (11dp5dt). Two things to be aware of:

- The trigger can stay in your system for 12 days (this would be up to 5dp5dt).

- Most women don't have high levels of HCG in their system until after 9dp5dt. But some clinics do test 14 days post collection (which would be 9dp5dt or 11dp3dt).

I'm waiting until 11dp5dt so there is a couple of extra days built in.

Some women say they regret doing it early but I think it depends on what type of person you are. If you like to be in control (like me) i think it's different. I know the facts and am fully aware I could get a false +ve or -ve but am taking precautions by not testing really early. My OTD is 14dp5dt so by testing at 11dp5dt I'm talking control of my results and I'd rather have them infront of me prior to OTD and be prepared for the possible disappointment than be told them on the phone by the poor person giving the results after a blood test (if it weren't good news). If it is a negative I'm also aware that it might be false so am prepared for the wait between test and OTD, or happy to test in-between.

Do what feels right for you, only you can know what you want. Just be aware of the different risks to your emotions. There isn't a right or wrong answer so just wanted to even the debate out. xx

Thanks everyone for your messages, something made me take a HPT today and it was a BFN, my OTD is Monday. I wish I hadn't done it as I have broken since I saw the result. xxx
