    Very high temps. When should I test?

    Just wondering if/when you think I should test. I'm currently 10DPO and these are the highest temps I've EVER had!! Is that a good sign?

    I don't want to jump the gun, and in the past have been a little... pee-stick-happy so was wondering if my temps stay high (particularly this high) when you think would be ok to test.

    Trying not to get my hopes up, but really for BFP this cycle. Have been TTC#1 for 4 years, and we're booked in for our first appointment with FS next Friday. for a little miracle this month!!

    Hmm.... I don't know if having higher temps means higher hcg or anything so I don't know if you can test early. But, I would try to wait till at least 12 DPO, then you have a better chance of getting a bfp.
    Wishing you all the luck in the world!!

    Thanks guys, was I was very emotional while reading your responses. I was hoping to hold out till at least the weekend, but wasn't sure if that was still too early.

    Also, I've just moved back to AUS after living in the States for 6 years - is there a brand of test you would recommend? Can you get 'first response' in AUS? Might pick up something tomorrow and test on Sat am (DPO 12) if temps are still high.

    Thanks again for your support!! Now have to pull it together again before DH gets home...

    first response is available here. You can get some from your pharmacy or safeway. ClearBlue is also a very reputable brand.digital ones tend to be more accurate if testing early. You can get a vapor line with the others which causes confusion especially if you are wanting an answer desperately. Don't need any ambiguities!! :goodluck2:

    Hi Bub4Me.

    I suggest giving it another two days until you're 12 DPO, I got a positive result at 10DPO but my 12DPO result was very clear.

    The brand I highly recommend is Lullaby Conceptions which can pick up the pregnancy hormone at 7DPO in most people but I believe you can only get them on their website so it would take you a few days to get them.

    Anyone else have a shop-brand which they can recommend??

    Good luck and I cant wait to log on over the weekend and see some beautiful flashing at me !!!!

    Try not to get your hopes up. I compared this cycle to your last one and on CD29 you were only .1 lower so it doesn't look that much higher to me. I'd leave it another couple of days before testing as on your last cycle you started to drop from CD30. If it stays high or rises for a couple more days then go on and test.

    Lullaby Conceptions have the most reliable early tests you can get IMHO. I got a positive on one at 10DPO (after a 6DPO & 7DPO implantation dip). For store bought ones the digital ones are good as they will say pregnant or not pregnant - no guess work. You might have to wait til your AF is due for those though, can't remember.

    Best of luck for a temp rise tomorrow.

    Hi, I agree with the other girls and would try to hold out until 12DPO. But, that's coming from me who is usually a POAS addict. This is the first cycle I managed to hold out until 12DPO, as usually I start around 8DPO, lol. I've found first response tests to be really good. While the other two brands I used gave me faint (but very noticeable) lines, the first response left absolutely no doubt

    Good luck!!!

    Hi Alla,

    Your temps look good. Possibly triphasic? You are still on Day10 po so I would wait at least another 2days to test. Most HPK's will pick up results at early as 10D po but you could then have the disappointment of a chemical pregnancy (I hope that stays far, far, far away from you!).

    Very excited for you. Hope it is a for you. everything crossed for you hun. loads of and

    good luck.
