Ok I KNOW I tested to early. I even told myself before hand, if it’s negative it, don’t take it to heart as it’s to early (I tested 4dp4dt). I had a frozen transfer. (But told myself as it had assisted hatching it would implant quicker).
It was a silly thing to do, as I feel AWFUL, and sick with sadness.
Please can I have some inspiration
Thank you xxxx

I’m 3DP5DT, also frozen so I completely get how you’re feeling. You so desperately want to test!
Don’t be disheartened that’s it not positive though, it’s really early! The earliest I’ve seen people getting the faintest lines is 5/6 days after but even then it could still be negative.
Thank you!!! I totally told myself to expect the TWW to be difficult, but this is harder than I ever imagined! I was shaking doing the pregnancy test, and I have just made things worse for myself.
It’s a vicious circle, I want to test to make myself feel better, but know I may be making myself way worse!
I have had mild period cramps ever since transfer, I don’t usually get this before a period, but pretty sure it can’t be implantation, as it has been pretty constant for t days now (granted it gets worse for a tiny bit then fades)
Don’t worry, the TWW drives everyone crazy! I’m on a high dose of progesterone and my boobs are killing me 😭 I know it’s just a side effect of that though. Other than that, a little crampy but not too bad. Going to try and hold out until end of the week to test 🤪
Yes I will deff hold out now! As I am to scared of another BFN. I am also on a very high dose. My clinic like readings to be above 100, so I’m on injections, patches, pesseries vaginally and anally 😂. Good luck and please let me know xx
I had a very faint line on 9dpt, and i know if i tested 2 days earlier would've definitely been negative. It's far too early to know, so please don't stress xx
No it wasn't a FRER, but i did test with FRER at 10dpt and it came out darker than the tests i was using but still quite faint. By 14dpt it was really dark. But i wish i didn't test early, as seeing a faint line brought on anxieties of its own. I tested a week before my OTD, and i have to tell you, the week leading up to test day felt like a month. I was so stressed and obsessed with seeing the lines getting darker, i started wishing i hadn't tested early. I know it's really really really hard, but the most important thing to do in the 2ww is to try and be stress-free and just take it easy. Do things to keep your mind busy and occupied. Don't stress about seeing a negative, coz it's far too early. X
Gosh I guess both testing and not testing comes with it’s own stresses unfortunately! I am going to try and hold out until at leas two days before otd (my clinic is 14 days after). I honestly don’t know how I’m going to cope. Good luck xx
Hey ttcbabymcg, the 2ww is so tough and it’s completely normal to want to test, even if you know it’s too early you still hope.
Annoyingly once testing the uncertainty doesn’t seem to end: you either get a negative and question everything even though you know you shouldn’t have tested OR you get a positive and then panic about how dark the line is or isn’t day to day.
It’s hard, but as you know on 4dp5dt there wouldn’t be hcg yet but it still will hurt seeing a negative test, even if you know why it’s negative. If you can I would encourage you to leave testing for as long as you can. Last cycle I had a negative on 5dp5dt, was admitted to a&e with late onset ohss the next day however still didn’t get a urine test positive until 8dp5dt even though my blood showed hcg on 6dp5dt.
Thank you so much for your lovely msg. I even sit here telling ppl 4 days is to early... but don’t listen to my own advice NOOO of course not lol!
I hope your feeling better, I can’t imagine how that extra strain effected you!
I have also told myself it was a frozen transfer so may even take a little longer. It’s just typical we listen and focus on the rare stories of ppl impacting v early, but not the other trend of late impanters 😂. Us women hey 😂. How are you know xx
Ha ha I’m exactly the same 😂 I guess it’s just because we care so much about the outcome. I’m actually also in the tww myself just now 8dp5dt so I’m symptom spotting whilst trying to tell myself not to 🙈.
Aww thank you, today is OTD so did a hpt before I went to get my bloods done - looks positive but want to know the beta hcg numbers 🙈🤞. How are you getting on? Is it your OTD soon? X
I know it’s a tough one 🙈. I tested yesterday am and today am so that was 9dp5dt and 10dp5dt, my period was due yesterday so thought a day before OTD couldn’t hurt, thankfully it didn’t.🤞 for when you do test, let me know how it goes! ♥️ x
Thank you! I even have a table chart that states the embryo doesn’t relase hcg until day 6.... but I still take it to heart. It’s really shaken me up. X
Yeah I think I will hold out. My clinic test 14 days later and only if positive. However I wasn’t to at least prepare myself! I really have a feeling it hasn’t worked for me..... I mean I have never in my life been pregnant. So I don’t know what I am meant to feel, but I don’t think I feel “pregnant” lol. All the best hun xx
I used frer test and had a squinter at 5dp5dt I always test early and loved watching the line get darker every morning😬 I have a draw full now from my sons pregnancy that I’ve kept 🙄 good luck to you xx
It's not silly or too early to test positive at 4dp5dt. I did and got a bfp. However it's earlier than most people do and you still have plenty of time to get your bfp. At least you know you've tested out the trigger shot and now when you get your bfp you won't be second guessing it! Hang in there 😀
Glad I’ve found this post. Had a test on 5-6dp5dt, BFN. So disheartened. Couldn’t even told my husband I did the test. Tuesday is my beta test, I could only pray. I had mild cramp on day 1-2, then absolutely nothing until 3 days ago my boobs started to get fuller but that could be the progesterone, estrogen or pms. Well, let’s see. Wish all of u best pf luck.
How are you feeling lovely? My transfer was on Monday! My otd is 27th! I don’t want to test that mornign, as want to prepare myself when I speak to clinic, but was to scared to test again! Testing and getting a negative has truly scared me! I was shaking I couldn’t even get the cap on to the test 😂 xxx
Hi islwyn, we are on the same timeline. I had a FET with a 5 day blast and got a squinter at day 5. However, I've been drinking a ton of water so I think that diluted the urine. I stopped drinking water for 2 hours and then repeated the preg test last night 8dp5dt and got a faint positive. My understanding is that everyone produces HCG at different rates. Don't lose hope. Looks like we will both have our blood test on Tuesday. I'm sending you positive vibes and wishing you all the luck <3
This is ridiculously early to be testing! I tested my frozen transfer at 8dp5dt and only got a very feint bfp. Ignore this. Pretend it didn’t happen. And carry on for another few days and test again. Too early to be sad about a test you had no chance of passing! Not over yet x
Thank you!!! It’s so silly I KNOW this, and I would be advising ppl exactly what everyone is saying. I just truly never believe it will happen for me, and have nightmares if it happening again! . How many weeks are you know xx
I totally understand. It’s agony waiting and it’s naturally to think the worst and think it will never happen for you. But I can tell you that I’m certain everyone feels like that. Just keep going along this road and try to keep that at some point you will arrive at your destination, no matter how many twists and turns there are along the way. I was very lucky and my bfp became my little boy who turned 3 this week. So if it can happen for me it can happen for you! Wishing you all the best this week, I hope this is the one for you xx
Than you so much! I have a low amh and I had to test as I have a serious genetic neurological disorder, i only ended up with one embryo! Just the thought of the whole process again is agonising. Not the meds etc... but the emotionz/anxiety etc. I can’t imagine ever having a baba 😢
Remember it only takes one! I have a friend who had quite a variety of issues and her partner and they ended up with just one embryo from only two eggs retrieved, and the embryo turned into a little boy. It does happen! Try not to think about having to do it all again just yet. Just focus on what’s happening now and on looking after yourself and getting through the next few days whatever they may bring xxx
I also tested at 4dpt 5dt and got a BFP but factors vary including when an egg implants. I definitely wouldn’t rule out things changing over the next few days. Good luck...x
Yes I did. I got a positive test result 4 days after a 5 day transfer, but I think my egg implanted early the day after transfer when I noticed what I believed was implantation bleeding. Not all tests show positives that early and doesn’t mean the outcome won’t be positive. The line was extremely faint but was clearer the following day. x
Wow, bet that made the 2ww more bearable, though I’m sure it comes with its own anxiety (ie, watching the line get darker). Did you have any symptoms in the tww xx
Yes it did. I also had symptoms although wasn’t sure that they were all related at the time. I had Implantation bleeding, hot flushes, pulling sensation in my stomach, mild backache, light headedness, fatigue, pins and needles in my legs and shooting pains in my breasts. It really does vary though and some people experience nothing at all...x
Yeah testing day 4 and getting the negative has petrified me. I think I’ll test day ten next (purely because I want to prepare myself ) can much happen after day ten of you get a negative xx
In four pregnancies now I’ve gotten a very very faint positive by the evening of 4dp5dt, but it was easier to see (albeit still very faint) the next day. My HCG is always on the high side (around 1500 when they do blood work at 14dp5dt) so that might have something to do with it. I always got the best results with second morning urine, not FMU, so maybe try that if you test tomorrow.
Thank you!!! I have bladder issues, so I go to the toilet all through the night, so don’t thjnk I can gage by what urine number is which haha. I will just have to try and hold one in for a while, lol. I think as mentioned above I will try day ten. If negative, can much change? X
I tested every day when I had a fresh cycle so I could see the trigger go.... that brought up negative by 4dp5d transfer! I didn't get the slightest faint line again until 8dp5d transfer...... so please dont give up hope xx
The clinic never took my bloods they wait and just do the viability scan however I bled from 5weeks until 14 weeks so we paid a private scan and saw the yolk sac at 5w6d I had 6 scans up to 20 weeks because I was so scared xx
