Pregnancy tests please help

For everyone who got a bfp before OTD.

Did you all use FRER and did any of you use any other tests that didn't work but the frer did?

Seems everyone uses these, we can't get them where I am so used wondfo and a clear blue ultra early, very faint line on the CB but nothing on the wondfo.

Is 8dpt too early to be picked up on any test other than the frer?

I'm hoping it is and that explains the bfns we've had so far

Thanks

I should mention it's 8dp5dt

this is easy at home test, they are rather sensitive (although not as first response). I had car crash one day after embryo transfer so was anxious to see if it was affected. These are my tests 4-5-6-7-8 days after 5days frozen embryo transfer. Line was extremely faint until 8dpt and even then was not very strong. I did first response on day 10 and it was dark as control line but it’s because that one is way more sensitive.

Thank You! Hopefully its just taking a longer time for the HCG in my partners body to rise. Not looking likely though based on success stories i've read :(

do you think it may just be the tests we've used aren't sensitive enough this early on? seems eveeeeerybody uses the FRER - maybe why they're out of stock everywhere haha

haha, definitely possible! I do know that other tests aren’t as sensitive… and also different people have different levels of hcg, which don’t necessarily mean that the transfer did or didn’t work. You probably just need to wait a few more days… I know it’s super hard 😣 8dpt is still early, some people don’t get a positive till 10-11-12dpt x

I tested at 9dp5dt with a CB digital. I had transferred two embryos though and had twins. So my HCG was really high. CB from 8 or 9dp5dt should be fine. I don’t know wondo.

We used a CB none digital 10ml 6 day early one yesterday and this was the 'line' if you can even call it that lol! does it look like anything to you? wouldn't it be way way darker on a CB early detection 8dp5dt?

Both tests this morning on day 9 stark negative but they were 20ml sensitivity.

Really don't want to think that its over but judging by success stories - or lack of- online when testing negative on day 9, its not looking good.

just used a CB digital - Not pregnant. Game over for us, annoyingly have to wait until OTD to see another negative test and stop the progesterone.

We have 2 frozen embys though so all is not lost for this cycle.
