    Cool Is 4 days after possiable implantation too early to test?

    I'm cd27 today and just tested with a digi hpt that came up not pregnant

    on cd23 I had a bright red streak in a clear long cm followed by a pale pink smear on the loo paper so hoping it's implantation, is 4 days after a possiable implantation still too early to test?
    I would have thought in 4 days it be at least at 50?

    Obviously it's not over till af shows up, but I'm curious as to if this was implantation.

    i personally havent heard of anyone getting a + at 4 have heard the odd 7-8 but not 4, my suggestion would be to wait (easier said then done i know!) till around 10 dpo and then test, if still negative test at 12.

    dnt let it consume u hunny xxx

    fingers crossed for a PA very soon

    Thnx for the reply
    I'm not sure how many dpo I am I'm assuming I od on cd 17 so that make the spotting happen at about 6dpo and make me 10dpo today all aprox.

    Just thought that if it was implantation hcg would have showed by now ?

    Anila you won't get a positive that early on a digital test my love...

    Some women actually have some spotting at ovulation so is it possible that you were ovulating when you saw the blood? The mucous you describe sounds like it could have been fertile?

    Anyway it's too early for that digital test (& they are very exxy so don't even go there for at least another 5 days!) If you want to test early first response might be the go. But if you are only 4dpo.. I would be shocked if you got a positive.

    The earliest positive I have had was 8dpo & I needed to stand on my head under certain light with my tongue poking out!

    I truly hope you get your Earth baby growing soon...

    just found this-

    0-1 week: 0-50 IU/L
    1-2 weeks: 40 - 300
    3-4: 500 - 6,000
    1-2 months: 5,000 - 200,000
    2-3 months: 10,000 - 100,000
    2nd trimester: 3,000 - 50,000
    3rd trimester: 1,000 - 50,000
    Non-pregnant females: < 5.0
    Postmenopausal: < 9.5

    dont know if it helps, but if implantion did happen 4 days ago then its highly likely its just too early depending on the level of hcg that the test requires.
    as far as i know the digi ones arent that sensitive and if u havent used fmu, even more so

    Thanks
    I know it's prolly a bit ( way) to early for testing and it was late at night I'm just feeling a lil emotional tonight it's the same cycle (few days diff) to when I concieved angel Bub last year
    was just hoping that it was implantation spotting
    I did think o spotting was a posability

    I'm not fussed it's been 17 mths now ttc, not expecting a bfp but be nice if I got it

    oh and the digi tests were on clearence at wolies cost me $11 lol

    The First Response and Discover One Step Early Tests are the mst accurate for really early testing, and generally can work from 9DPO, they detect a low level of HCG, much lower levels than the digital tests.

    Goodluck hun, I really hope this is your time

    I got a negative at 5days before my due period date.

    On my due period date I had a very little smear of pink on the loo paper. Tested the next morning and +ve. So I reckon that was implantation on my period due date ... (both times used First Response, double checked this morning with Crystal Clear)

    Good luck!

    Thanks girls
    I don't know what to think now
    I'm cd 28 today and what looks like af starting but I Neva get af this early
    and tmi it only started straight after hubby and I dtd
    hubby went to the loo said there some discolouration
    so when I got up there was a massive jelly glob on the bed and when I wiped it was all pale pink like af
    I did think maybe it was from dtd but now wonder if af is just visiting way early and then what was that streak 5 days ago???
    grrr I hate not knowing what's going on!!!

    Last month I had an implantation bleed on a Sunday evening (I actually thought it was AF) and then I waited it out and tested on the following Thursday morning and got a BFP. So I guess you can get a positive test 4-5ish days after implantation...

    Good luck!
