    Hi, this time round I tested around 9DPO or 11DPO (O day wasn't clear enough in my chart for me to know which day was infact O day) I got a very very faint line & then did more over the week & they got darker as the week passed.

    Hi

    I had nausea from around 11dpo so tested then and got a feint positive, this is quiet early though, there are people that test early who are preg and get a negative result, as Danielle said the lines got stronger as the week progressed.

    :goodluck2: let us know how you go.

    For early testing I would recommend FMU, having said that I tested in the afternoon at 11DPO with a 1st Response and got a positive, that brand is available at Woolworths.

    Yep, nausea, sore boobs and being a second pregnancy I think I looked about 3months gone as well, oh and a bit of cramping which is ongoing.

    I hope you get your BFP soon, I'll be thinking of you. xIslah

    No symptoms for me in the very early days. I tested at about 2pm (just had an urge to test for some reason!) & I used lullaby conceptions for my first test. I like the lullaby conceptions tests as they're cheap & I've had good use of them

    Hope to hear a PG announcement from you soon

    I had a VERY faint positive around 10/11 DPO and it was 1:30pm and 4pm...lol same day. We've been TTC though so I kinda just did it to prove I wasn't as each month it was negative except this time!

    Thanks for your replies girls

    DH and I arent trying atm, but we BD right when I ovulated without a condom, so who knows.

    AF is due to early next week, I am more tired than usual, my boobs are sore and big, Im moody, food doesnt interest me, I had cramping yesterday and bad on one side last night, then today I went to the toilet and had a little bit of pinkish/brown CM, and a lot of gas!!

    I tested first thing this morning and it was BFN. so maybe its either in my head, or really not sure?

    If AF isn't due until early next week you're probably testing too early anyway so I'd say just see how you go & maybe test again on the weekend or early next week

    Good luck Jbelle....even if you weren't TTC

    I tested at 7DPO because I'm a POAS addict! I got a BFN.

    Then at 9DPO I got a faint BFP with an internet cheapy. At lunchtime I used a shop bought test (can't remember the name, it was one I'd never seen before) which was meant to be super sensitive, and got a BFN.

    The next day (10DPO) I used another internet chaepy and the second shop bought test, got a very slightly darker second line on the IC and nothing on the shop test. So then on my lunch break I bought a two-pack of Discovery Onestep, and with lunchtime pee I got a good BFP. I totally recommend them, I got the same with Discovery Onestep with my last pregnancy (10DPO, lunchtime pee, good second line).

    Hi Jbelle, I get mine from Chemist Warehouse for about $13 for a two-pack. I've seen them in Priceline too for about $25!! Discovery also do a cheaper dip test, but they're not as sensitive (not saying dippers as a whole are less sensitive, just the Discovery ones....I think they're 50, and the POAS ones are 10 or 25 miu).
