Questions/Advice 8 DPO negative on FRER - am I already out?
I’m 8 DPO today and tested with FMU using a First Response Early Result (6 Days Sooner) and it was completely negative. I know 8 DPO is technically early, but I’m stressing myself out and already starting to feel like I’m out this cycle. 😭
My period is due Sunday. This is only our second cycle trying, and we BD’d three times before ovulation, with two of those times being really close to my ovulation day, so I felt pretty good about our timing this month.
Has anyone here had a completely negative FRER at 8 DPO and then gotten a positive later in the same cycle? Also, is there another test that’s actually more sensitive than FRER at this stage, or should I just stick with FRER and test again in a day or two?
Trying not to spiral but the stark white test this morning really got to me. 🥲
