curlylocks Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I'm pretty sure I ovulated on Sunday PM/Monday AM. TeA time = Monday AM. I've been feeling queasy and had tender BooKs yesterday and today... Is it possible to test now or should I wait? (Is there a reason to test now other than satisfying my curiosity??) :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curlylocks Posted February 24, 2012 Author Share Posted February 24, 2012 would PG symptoms show up so soon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momof3littles Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) I think 10 days post ovulation is considered very early for a test to show up +. Some people who are actually pg will test positive at that point, but some positives will be missed because they haven't hit the hcg threshold needed for a test to come up positive that early. Even early tests like First Response Early Response typically don't register until the hcg hits something like 30ish I believe. So some pregnant women won't test positive at 10, 11, or even 12 or more days post ovulation. I am not sure something could even implant from Monday until now. I would have to refresh my memory. It takes quite a bit of time for things to implant and then start giving off enough hcg to actually detect it on a HPT. Have you ever checked out the website peeonastick.com ? You can spend hours there obsessing while ttc, trust me ;) eta: here you go: http://www.peeonastick.com/hptfaq.html#1 Edited February 24, 2012 by Momof3littles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wapiti Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 :iagree::iagree: w/ Momof3Littles :) I'd think of it this way - pregnancy symptoms when it's too early to test (or when a test is negative but the person turns out to be pregnant) are usually the result of lots of progesterone, i.e., a good, strong ovulation :). The implantation window would be starting about 5 days past ovulation, so it seems a bit too soon for hCG to be getting into your bloodstream from a blastocyst and encouraging the follicle to produce more progesterone, but hey, who knows. Good luck!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenmom5 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 For a number of years in my 30's, my PMS symptoms included queasy and tender for about 12 hours. I knew when they stopped, my cycle would start. test if you want. do know a negative could be false. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiseOwlKnits Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Yep. I had pg symptoms with DD 5 days after TeA. We weren't even trying so it's not like I was looking for symptoms either. But I thought I had food poisoning. When it didn't go away, I thought it was a stomach bug. When it still didn't go away, I went to the doctor. It didn't go away till she came 9 months later. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OH_Homeschooler Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 With my last baby I was tracking so I know when I ovulated and so on. I ovulated on a Sunday. I think I was having symptoms the following Sunday. For example, I ate tons of potato chips when I can usually control myself, but honestly that could have also been caused by extreme PMS if I hadn't turned out to be pregnant. I'm a pee test junkie (love that peeonastick website listed above) so I was testing using those super cheap/sensitive Internet tests. I did not test positive that Sunday but the next morning, 8 days past ovulation, I had the faintest pink line. So I would say you could test now but don't expect a positive just yet. KUP! Waiting is so hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffeetime Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I'm pretty sure I ovulated on Sunday PM/Monday AM. TeA time = Monday AM. I've been feeling queasy and had tender BooKs yesterday and today... Is it possible to test now or should I wait? (Is there a reason to test now other than satisfying my curiosity??) :) This Sunday? I'm going to go with no, don't test yet. But only because it's too early and I don't want you to be disappointed. :D 5dpo "PG" symptoms are usually from raised levels of progesterone. Always makes me queasy, tender, weepy... the works. The earliest a fertilized egg implants is around 5 dpo, and your HCG levels would be undetectable at that time. That said, looks like you've hit it just right, so crossing my fingers for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ktgrok Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Fertilization wouldn't have even happened yet, or if it had the embryo wouldn't have implanted in the uterus yet. You can't get a positive test until after implantation, so at LEAST 10 days after you did the deed. Sorry :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
