Question about those really early tests
You know the ones - the ones that claim a BFP can be detected 5 days before missed AF....
Is that complete horse sh*t? They are saying you could know 9 DPO if that's the case.
I have yet to hear anyone finding out 9 DPO that they are pregnant - anyone else?
Is it just a way to overcharge those tests even more???

Re: Question about those really early tests
There is a disclaimer that they are only about 50% accurate at 4-5 days. Then the % of accuracy increases as you are closer to AF.
ETA: With DS I found out at 11DPO. Confirmed with a digital at either 12 or 13DPO.

I don't think it's BS.
There have been people who got BFPs at 9 DPO - but it's definitely rare.
As PP mentioned, the tests are only 50ish% accurate at that time...

But... do you think maybe you O'd earlier and maybe would have gotten AF earlier than you expected?

Interesting! Did you have symptoms? Is that why you tested?

Is it possible yes but I honestly don't think so! My cycles were like clockwork! Even if it was off by a day then I got my positive at 9dpo

Re: Question about those really early tests
I got a faint positive on 8dpo and clearer on 9dpo and with another Pg on 9dpo so they do work....just not in every case.
