I said 14DPO because tests here cost a fortune, and I'm too cheap to spend 14 Francs (at least) on a negative. My longest LP was 13 days, I think.

If I didn't think my husband would laugh at me, I'd probably buy some cheaper ones online and test much sooner.

So, Wednesday is test day! FF says I'll be 15DPO, but I think it's 14.

I'm holding off till 14DPO as well, mainly because DH is so "relaxed" about the whole thing.. I don't know how I could justify the expense to him right now when technically I'm still waiting for AF (she is due Tuesday).

My average LP is 15 days long. So if nothing by then, I will test.

I do often test before my expected period (with a dollar store test) just so I can let go of that cycle and flow into my menstruation easily. I also like to rule out pregnancy before AF in case it is some random bleed but I am pregnant.

Hoping, hoping to wait until 11dpo--that's in 2 days. I figure that's a really reasonable day to take a look. I have IC tests and can also get Dollar Tree tests very easily so cost isn't too big a deal. I'm way too cheap to spend even $5 on a test, let alone the $10 or whatever a digital costs.

I voted 9 DPO because that is the earliest I have seen people on here getting BFPs.

Though last month I tested at 6 DPO...in the evening! How silly...I realise now there is no way it would even show up that early and might not even have implanted yet because that happens between 6 and 12 dpo.

When I ran out of pregnancy tests I used an OPK... I seem to get more obsessed each cycle!

So yeah next time, hoping to wait until 9 DPO.

Anyone in the TWW testing yet?

I said 13dpo because that's when they scheduled my blood test, and my trigger shot will make me question any bfp before then.

Tear, I lurk in the TTC forums and I have to say I am so excited for this cycle for you.

I did test yesterday at 11 dpo but it was negative. This morning my temp dropped. Could possibly be because I was dang cold for a couple hours, but probably not.

True to my word i tested today at 4dpo (or 3 by my guess ) and why did i test? because i felt like it, and did i think there was even the teeniest tiniest chance of getting a ? no not all but hey it was a IC l
