No, it doesn't mean you're out.. A lot, meaning most, women cannot detect they're pregnant until after their missed period or at the earliest the day before their missed period. The first two months of trying i started testing at 10dpo and quickly learned that i was just making it harder on myself than it needed to be...and spending money on unnecessary tests. I would really recommend just waiting until you have your missed period to test. It is hard!! Trust me, I struggle. But I think it makes everything a little less stressful in the long run. Also, when you're testing that early you have the possibility of finding out you had a chemical pregnancy. Whereas if you're waiting until a missed period, you would have no idea if you had a chemical pregnancy. All you would know if you had one was that you just simply weren't pregnant. Saves you from a lot of heartache and disappointment in my opinion!! It's up to you though! I understand if you don't want to wait! Baby Dust!! :)

Thank you for the input! It is hard to wait but I should probably try lol. :)

No. Youre not out until you have your period. But that being said... it is so hard to see bright pink double lines on DPO 9 when you are getting squinters on DPO 13.

My advice is to stop looking at the pictures... take a break a few days and test if your period hasn't arrived. This TTC is hard work and emotionally draining! Don't overdue it... its not good for you and really turns up pressure on yourself to get pregnant.

Thank you for the support. AF is due on Sunday so I will wait and see if it comes. Good luck everyone and baby dust! :)
