Tomorrow is mother's day in the UK so I wanted to test today. I'm cooking Sunday lunch for my extended family tomorrow and I just thought either wait until Monday or test today. It ended up being today and it was negative with the second pee of the day. I'm absolutely gutted and trying to hold it together until after the weekend.My clinic only accepts blood test results, so I'm having that on Monday.
The only thing stopping me from completely breaking down is the sliver of hope that it implanted late. Am I being delusional?

So sorry Mikki100. I tested negative yesterday in my 5th cycle too, and it is a brutal weekend for it. I was 15dp5dt on my OTD though so no dubeity for me. On the chances of it being wrong - 8dp5dt is quite early and wasn't FMU so there is still a chance and you should definitely keep following guidelines until your clinic says otherwise x
Thanks I will. I always read about some women getting a positive 4dpt so I thought I'd give it a try. I'm sorry you tested negative.. this journey is so exhausting and heartbreaking. I think deep down I know I'm out, but I'll keep plodding along until OTD and hold back the tears until everyone's gone tomorrow x
Some do get a reaction very early but there must be a reason test dates are when they are - and we have all heard stories (including non-IVF stories) of people taking tests around the period date and getting a negative and then a week later getting a positive. I'll keep everything crossed that is you. Hope you can park the negative thoughts and enjoy tomorrow x
hello, I didn’t get my 1st very very faint positive until 9DP5DT and even then you could barely see it x I read the same as you about women getting 4DPT positives and it really set me back, comparison is the worst thing in this whole process yet you can’t help but do it x lots of love 🙏🏼🤞🏼x
Sorry you're going through this, but I do think it maybe too early - I'm also 9dp5dt today & my clinic don't want me to test until next Sat! Always feels a horribly long wait but I've had 4 early losses/ chemical pregnancies so always I try to hold out as long as possible. I'm actually sort of terrified to test as don't want it to be over!
Wow! Next Saturday is a long time time! My clinic only wants hcg blood test results. OTD is tomorrow, but I'll probably push back to Tuesday because I can't face it. I've swung from one extreme to the next. Good luck to you x 🙏
Hi Mikki100, I'm in exactly the same boat as you. I tested on Saturday 8dp5dt FET and it was BFN. Ever since then I've been scouring the internet looking for examples of BFN at that stage turning into BFP. My OTD is tomorrow.
Thank you. I tested this morning 10dpt and it was negative so I'm out. But my clinic insists on a blood test so I'll do that tomorrow. I really hope it's good news for you tomorrow x
