@thankful2010 7 days before missed period is way too soon. Don't give up hope! Remember each pregnancy is completely different and when the egg implants can be 7-12 days after ovulation and then it still needs a couple days for enough hormones to register for a bfp. So, just because you found out earlier with your other children, doesn't mean you will with this one. Definitely give it a couple days and test again. Unless you get your AF, there is still hope! Keep us updated!

EDIT: Your ovulation timing sounds just fine! Sperm can live for up to 5 days so as long as you did the deed in the few days leading up to your O date (Which you did!) then you have a strong chance of a bfp. Good luck!

Thanks Sarah love your name btw that’s my baby girls name. So I’m either 8 dpo or 9 two different apps are saying different things so I might be 8 dpo I had a lot of eggwhite on the 3rd .

So I went an edited the picture I took after taking the test

I’m currently 9dpo and I’m going crazy I am a huge POAS addict and I cant help it but getting negatives. Trying for baby #3 after 2 miscarriages. Really hoping for a BFP this month!!!

Hi everyone.... I just got my BFP n am still in shock..... Is there any chance of this being false positive????

I am so sick and tired of this.
I have been trying for months and only had a miscarriage. I am sick of my irregular periods, sick of waiting for a smiley face and generally at an all time low.

Took this with first moring pee . Don’t believe it though because they give me bad false pregnancies

@Nissa1019 Congratulations! That looks like a super strong BFP. No WAY that is a false positive!
Did you have any symptoms during your TWW?

@thankful2010 That looks like a BFP to me! See?! You just needed to wait a day and test again! So excited for you!

@Roundthree I am so sorry you are feeling discouraged. That really sucks. Keep your head up. Remember that you only have a 20% chance (at most!!) each time you successfully BD during ovulation. Wishing you the best of luck. It'll come!
Of all couples trying to conceive:

30 percent get pregnant within the first cycle (about one month).
60 percent get pregnant within three cycles (about three months).
80 percent get pregnant within six cycles (about six months).
85 percent get pregnant within 12 cycles (about one year).
91 percent get pregnant within 36 cycles (about three years).
93 to 95 percent get pregnant within 48 cycles (about four years).

@Crystallynnba Keeping my fingers crossed for you!! I am also trying for baby #3. Have you had any strong signs that you may have been successful this month? When are you testing again? I am a POAS addict as well but for some reason I am eerily calm during this TWW. No symptoms yet. I did buy HPTs the other day but will wait to test until 9dpo. I am currently 6dpo.

Wow I can’t believe it

@sarahlf86 thank you for reassuring , actually I am still in denial... I have been actually trying for the past three months only n didn't expect it so soon.....
Past few cycles I had many symptoms but AF had arrived.. This cycle I had zero symptoms until 6dpo.. From 6dpo my breasts were really painful... Even wearing a bra was uncomfortable, thought I actually put on weight... But looks like that was my main symptom...
