hi, I tested 8dp5dt. My OTD was the next day which was a Fri which was still a day early as my hospital didn't test on Sat. I didn't want to test any sooner than that and managed to hold out! Don't read into any pains or twinges. I had loads and got a BFP. It's probably due to meds and what your body's gone through. Good luck - keep us posted!xx

strictly speaking I tested 2 days early as the blood test on Fri at the hospital was day 14 but should've been day 15 (Sat) so my home test was day 13 if that makes sense! Aw, you're bound to be nervous. I ended up doing 4 tests in the end. Cost me a fortune!xx

it's difficult that's for sure. I was constantly knicker checking! When is your test day?xx

I tested on test day but about 3/4 days before test day I was certain af was coming. I also got sharp low down pains and I got my bfp on test day. Had no symptoms at all so don't give up hope - I'm now 6+4

There are lots of stories on here of women who test early and get an inaccurate result. Hold on and test on the day they told you!!

I tested on day 14 because I was too scared to test early and get a negative. I would have been very disappointed with the added anxiety of wondering whether or not it was actually true?! Hope that makes sense! Hold in there & fingers crossed! x
