Question

Testing 8 days before your period too soon?

I know I am testing to early but I really cant help it! lol well my question is when I first took a test a couple days ago I could swear I saw a faint line. Well I then took another one yesterday and I don't know if the test was no good because it just didn't look right and then about 15 minutes later it started to show positive. Well I looked at it this morning and it is positive, I took another test this afternoon a first response the new curved one and it came back negative. What are your opinions??

A bfp before 7dpo is nearly unheard of (not impossible, but really really uncommon), but 8, 9, 10dpo isn't as uncommon. If you have a multitude of hpts then go ahead and test however much you'd like. As for your vanishing bfp, on the test you took yesterday was it first morning urine? If it was then that might explain why you got a bfn this afternoon. First morning urine is much more concentrated with hcg so you're more likely to get an early bfp in the morning as opposed to afternoon. As you get further along with your dpo it won't matter as much whether you test morning or afternoon. I'd be cautiously optimistic. You're not supposed to read hpts after the allotted time, but I know it's super hard not to though! Best of luck!

Thank you I know I am jumping the gun but its so hard, I think every little thing is a symptom! lol... No it wasn't a FMU, I had posted a pic on here of that test and had a couple people say that they had issues with the blue dye and evap lines. I think I will just try to calm down and maybe wait till this weekend to test again. It was hard for me to know exactly when I ovulated bc I didn't have any symptoms of that so I just guessed between 12 and 14 days. Which would have been around the 30th, but man am I blotted and tired.
