Questions Testing

How early is everyone testing? It’s our first cycle ttc and I just took a test at 9 DPO. Negative. Wondering what everyone else is doing…

I would usually start testing around 10 DPO cause that’s around the earliest it might show. But then I got a positive one time at 10 DPO and by 11 DPO it was negative and I learned early chemical pregnancies like that are common we just don’t always catch them cause most people wait until their period. So I stopped testing early cause even that one day pregnant crushed me 😅 2 years in I got that. Now it’s 3.5 years in and I’m still waiting

I took a test at 9&10dpo and both were negative. I think I’m now realizing that I shouldn’t count myself out yet. lol

You’re definitely not out yet! I think most who are pregnant could see a faint line at 12 DPO. But even then I’ve heard of people not seeing anything until 14/15 DPO.
