I tested early...help!

I’m 9dp5dt and I did the stupid thing and tested early. I know I shouldn’t have, but I caved in.

It was a BFN, and I now understand why they tell you not to test early. I don’t know what to do with myself.

In true panicked style I started googling, and of course all the happy “I got a BFP 4dpt” stories came up.

I’m absolutely gutted. Is there any chance it was just way too early, and I could still get a BFP? I only tested 2 days earlier than the clinic told me to... x x

Hi GraceFace, I’ve seen women who’ve had a bfn day before otd and bfp day of, so hang tight and wait until otd. Wishing you the best of luck xx

Hi GraceFace. Don’t get upset about it, lots do the same. If I were you, I would retest on the day the clinic advised. Good luck! Diane

What test did you use? I got a BFN with the one the clinic gave me but a BFP with a Clearblue on the same day!

Hello, it was just an Internet cheapie I had hanging around. I’d bought a twin-pack of Clear Blue Digitals for test day (Monday) though. Now I’ve scared myself I think i’ll wait and use one of the Clear Blue ones on Monday. Hoping and praying for a BFP then x

Thank you, and congrats to you on your BFP ⭐️

My friend’s line was really faint even on her otd. She’s 25 weeks pregnant now. It could definitely change.
