When is it reasonable to test?

Hi,

I am 5dp5dt today. Trigger was Saturday 15th. clinic have said to test on 1st January but we have friends coming for NYE and I don’t really want to get the news with them there, in case it is bad news. Also the wait is killing me!

When would be the earliest it is reasonable to test? I don’t want to get a false positive and know the trigger can do that.

Thanks

I started 6dp and used first response early response tests. It was very slightly positive, and it helped me mentally as I was spotting. I was also FET so no trigger shot. You could use FRER test on Sunday perhaps? X

Thank you! I think I need to hold out til sat or Sunday to be sure it’s not the trigger shot. The wait is killing me! But then won’t be as bad as a negative as right now there is hope x

You can be sure trigger will be gone at 12dp when you took the shot, if it was no more than 10,000 units. I could stop see my trigger at 5/6days past and then picked up my chemical at 8dp sooo yeah. Loads of clinics give 9dp5dt for an otd and then if negative ask you to wait another two days before stopping drugs. Good luckkkkkk xxx
