Hey. It is not too early to maybe see a positive result but it is wayyyyyy to early to rule yourself out if it was negative. So bfn at 5dp means nothing but it is so hard to pull yourself together after that. I have tested early for each of my three transfers and know that it is not worth it. Not at all! It hurts so bad to see that bfn but then still have to hold onto hope. I’d try to hold out. Xx

Urrgghhh the 2ww is hard, we just want to know what is going on in there! I completely understand your want to test early but just a few words of advice, if you test early and you dont get a positive then it can be pretty crushing and almost can make the 2ww even worse as you just want it to be done. There is the upside of getting a positive but even this comes with its worry that it may look positive but Ive seen a few ladies have chemical pregnancies where they see a positive which eventually fades away. If you can, I would hold off for a few more days. When is your OTD? Try to get outside into the fresh air for some walks or meet up with friends, I feel this keeps me off google and takes my mind off it a bit and away from from the pregnancy tests. That said, Im an early tester🙈😂 but so long as you know what you're dealing with its up to you! Good luck!xx

Ha ha ha well like I say, I dont mean to give lectures as I cant speak....Ive done 5x2ww now and was only good for one of them. LOL I got a BFP on my last one but not until around day 12dp5dt and it was faint, sadly lost the pregnancy at 6wks. I know how hard it is to be waiting and wondering!!xx

Obviously it’s completely your choice but I tested at 5dp5dt and really wish I’d waited. My otd was for 14 days post transfer which seemed very late.

I’d told myself that I’d be fine if it was negative because it was still so early, but the reality was it sent my anxiety through the roof.

Of course it’s so tempting though, and even knowing this, whether I’ll be able to wait any longer next time around is yet to be seen! 🤦‍♀️

Best of luck whenever you chose to test and here’s hoping you get that bfp! X

I tested very early after my day 3 transfer. After 1 week I think and the BFN played with my head even though I knew it was too early. It takes a lot of the hope away. For my upcoming FET I’ve promised my wife we will wait until OTD on day 12. I know it will be so hard not to test but I think it’s the right decision. I’ve asked her to hide all the pregnancy tests!!

Wait if you can. It is a little early

I’m planning on doing the same next time - no pregnancy tests allowed anywhere near the flat, and I’m leaving my bank card at home when I go out 😂
