Testing Advice

My OTD is next Thursday (13dp3dt) and I have got a meeting with a major client that morning so I will be leaving the house at about 7:30 am.

I don’t want to have to sit through the meeting if it’s a BFN, so am I better off testing on the Wednesday or the Friday? I don’t want to get a false result testing at the wrong time!

You can test latter that day.

I was told to do it with the first wee of the morning

Just store the urine until later in the day and test when you get home x

Hi WaywardGirl. You could test later in the day, but the recommendation is to test the first urine in the morning, so maybe leave till next day. Good luck! Diane

Hi hun, you could always pee in a container and then use that to test later in the day? Xxx

Cunning plan! Not sure I’m strong enough to get that far and then not test though!

I know...the temptation may be a bit too strong if you get that far! Failing that I would say try and hold on another day. You would only end up taking a second test then anyway 😊

Good luck with it all. The 2ww is just the worst! Xx

I'd leave it until Friday morning, it's nicer when it's nearer the weekend anyway so you can have a couple of days to deal with whatever the result may be. Good luck for your OTD xxx

Great - sounds like I’ve managed to extend my 2ww!! Aargh!

I’m terrible, I’ve never been able to wait until official test day so if it was me i’d test the morning before. If you use an early detector it’ll definitely show up. I’ve always tested ftom day 6 post 5 day transfer and when it’s been positive I always get a bfp by then on a FRER. Good luck!!! Xxx

I had something on at work for my OTD. I have to be honest: I couldn’t wait and tested a day early. Luckily it was positive but I had braced myself for a false negative and would have tested two days later in that case. Just do what feels right for you, but if you test early be prepared for a false negative. Good luck! Xxx
