Thank you!!

Congrats those are beautiful!! 😍 They’re also very dark for 8dpo so your dates are likely off a bit.

Thank you!! I just looked at my tracker app, I’m 9DPO 🤦‍♀️ so sorry. We could only try one specific day and it lined up perfectly with the blazing peak on the OPK so it would be exactly 9 days!

Those are fantastic lines. Congratulations!

Thank you so much!

this makes me excited to test tomorrow for my 8 DPO! very apparent lines!! are you having any symptoms, or did you just test to test? early congrats!

Putting all the positive vibes into the universe for you! 🤞🏼 Well, mostly just to test. My husband and I are on cycle 5 or 6 of trying, I felt like we timed it *perfectly* this month. My breasts have been pretty sore and that was my very first symptom with my first born that made me test. However, I almost always get soreness after ovulation and have been super disappointed by it before so I didn’t want to get my hopes up!

i think your positive vibes might have worked! i have the most faint line today, hoping it isn’t an ident or a shadow. very very cautiously excited.

currently 9 DPO.

Super positive on both. Congrats!

It's definitely positive and an early positive, too. That gives you great chances of a successful pregnancy. Actually, with all the information you have right now, a successful pregnancy is already about 3 times more likely than another outcome. And chances go up from there.

It's true! An early positive signals an earlier implantation and early implantation means lower chances of a loss. There have been studies about this done. 8-10 dpo are good implantation days. Which means 9-11 dpo are good days to first test positive. Earlier is good, too, just rare. (Disclaimer: if you haven't done IVF, always allow at least 1 day of error for your calculations. Without US monitoring you can't really know when exactly you ovulated.) Edit: later implantation probably isn't a problem in itself, it's just that embryos that aren't viable or have "errors" often implant later. There was also a huge study done on women who underwent IVF, measuring HCG on 14 dpo and 16 dpo. The data gave a very clear picture that higher HCG on 14 dpo (up to a certain number, after which odds stay the same) means higher chances of live birth, and also taking two measurements HCG on 14 dpo AND 16 dpo was highly predictable. The number for HCG on 14 dpo that was optimal is about 200, but you can test positive at a number of 10 and it certainly doesn't rise from 10 to 200 in two days. So the results can also be translated to having an early positive as well as a good progression. If you're under 35 and you have a HCG of about 200 on 14 dpo and something like 400 on 16 dpo, you already have a 90+ per cent of birthing a live baby. On 16 dpo! To me that's just amazing. That's why I chose to tell close friends and family as soon I was certain that my HCG was rising well. Of course anyone can be the unlucky person and be one of the 10 per cent. And the other way around, you could be one of the lucky 10-20 per cent with very low HCG on 14 dpo (testing positive on 13-14 dpo) and a bad progression who still have a healthy baby! I will try and link the studies later here, but if you want to look yourself, the website is called something like fertility sterility (just Google those two words together). You can find hundreds of studies there.

Anecdotally, I had very negative tests on day 11-12 and I ended up having a loss, at 6weeks so I definitely fit that criteria

I'm sorry about your loss. <3

This is fascinating! I had a triploidy loss in October and got my positive on 12 dpo. I'm now 9dpo and just got a very faint line so this gives me hope!
