How Early Can You Take a Pregnancy Test? OBGYN Explains Implantation & Early Pregnancy Symptoms 

I've just found out I'm pregnant yesterday at 10dpo. I'm so happy but also terrified, we've been trying since late 2019. I still can't fully believe it

Awwwh I could tell right away! Sarah was just trying to hold back her happiness the whole time❤️congratulations you guys !

Yay! Congratulations! I've been watching your channel since the beginning of my pregnancy and now postpartum with my 5 month old. I can't wait to watch your journey with baby #2!

Congratulations! I could tell because you were both smiling so much in this video! My husband and I are also facing secondary infertility. I’m hoping we won’t have to do IVF because of cost but it’s so nice to see a success story. Thanks for sharing.

I so appreciate you posting your early positive strips. It is so helpful to see in evaluating my own excitement in seeing a line that is there or not there.

Ahhhh congratulations!!!!!! I’m so happy for you!! I have been following along on your RU-vid journey from the beginning. On baby #1 our pregnancies were aligned almost down to the week, and I’m now 5 weeks pregnant again! I’m so excited to see your pregnancy journey this time around! Also, I completely relate to the neurotic test taking… I’m STILL taking tests to make sure the lines are getting darker. 😂 congratulations again you guys!!!

I am over the moon for you guys and could see the glow in your faces and sparkle in your eyes-congratulations! Can’t wait to follow your journey with baby #2! 🎉

Firstly congratulations 🎉!! Secondly - so lovely to see you’re as neurotic as the rest of us 😂 so reassuring x

Woo-hoo! Congratulations!!! We just had our first chemical pregnancy this past week so seeing this video cheered me up :) :) :) We wish you a smooth and healthy pregnancy.

CONGRATS YALL!!!!! Im so happy for you guys and cant wait to follow this journey!

Congratulations!! I just found im 5 weeks pregnant with my first baby!! I have dealt with infertility due to PCOS but I finally have my miracle baby! I’m excited to follow your journey!

Congratulations, m so happy for you. I could see how Sarah cldnt hold bck her excitement and it showed all over her. I know the feeling, it also took me time to get pregnant with my 3rd baby. You hv every right to be happy. Wishing you all a blessed journey.

I am so excited for you guys!!! Fellow IVF mama here and I know how exciting this time is. And I am so happy it worked the first round too! Took us 4! So much baby dust on your growing family ❤

I found out I was pregnant like 4 days before implantation. I implanted twice. Pregnant with twins 🥰

We are so happy about the good news, can’t wait Wednesday to find out. Congratulations!!! We saw that in the beginning of the video you guys are so happy, You guys can relax now and all the best.

Congratulations! So excited for y’all and praying over baby #2!

My 14mo old is from IVF & now unexpectedly 5wks pregnant with baby number 2 conceived naturally. So happy to follow along with your pregnancy journey again. Congratulations!

Congratulations! 🥳🎉 I am really happy to hear that. I can't wait to watch the videos about the journey. When I got pregnant the second time, I had the worst bloating ever, so the next morning I tested and it was so so thin, but I was also shocked 😅 I did not expect that symptom. 😄

I immediately paused the video and went to the comments! I just had to know!! I’m so excited for you guys. I’m still trying for #2, this is my 5th month trying, and this is the month I got pregnant with my daughter after we started trying. So I’m really hoping this is my month too! Just have to wait another week and a half. I want to test early, and have some tests from Amazon, but I am so nervous because I want this to be my month! I’m so excited for you guys! Congratulations!!

I knew it! You can tell when Sarah is feeling good or bad and in the last few videos she was so happy and glowing! I knew something was different! We are so happy for you. We wish you an easy pregnancy and a healthy baby! Thank you for sharing with us.

Congratulations! So happy for you and can't wait to follow more of your journey and this channel.

Congrats on baby #2! So happy for the both of you. I'm currently 24 weeks with baby #1. I've been binge watching all of your videos. It's really nice to have professionals on here sharing their journey and giving their advice

Oh my God! 🎉I am literally crying my eyes out in happiness for you guys!!!! I didn’t even do that for my own baby! I love you guys. I watched you through my first pregnancy. Praying so hard that baby stays strong and continues to grow! Omg happy tears!!! This is the best news all week! ❤😢😊

I absolutely love Sarah's vulnerabilty. My gosh! I hate to see the ups and downs obviously, I wouldn't wish that hurt on anyone but for anyone on a journey like this seeing a doctor openly admit "it was hard for me to wait against better judgement" "I tested early and often" etc. makes the average person feel less guilty for that human quality. We are all human and sometimes its hard in a season like this to take all of a doctor's advice and sometimes there's an immense amount of guilt of being anxious and failing to fight the feeling. In this society her honesty is refreshing and helpful. Congrats guys!!!

Yayyyyyy!!! Love this. God bless you guys. I found your channel when I found out I was pregnant with my now 1 yr old. Can’t wait to see more 💕

Oh my goodness congratulations!!! After everything you had to go through, I cannot imagine the relief and happiness you must be feeling. I hope you have an incredibly smooth and happy pregnancy.

Congratulations!!!!!!! 🎉🥳🎉🥳 I have been following you for about a year now and I just couldn't be happier for you 🔥 thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us!! I watched so religiously while I was pregnant, and your videos about breastfeeding really helped me with that part of my journey. We will probably start trying for baby number two in about 6 more months. It's so fun to have you guys basically in tandem with our journey.

Congrats! Haha, Sarah, you're so cute, I love your enthusiasm in talking about your field of expertise. Thanks to both of you for sharing your real feelings about your journey. Looking forward to seeing what comes next!

Congratulations! When we did IVF, I started testing 3 days post-transfer. Faint, faint positive that I thought was probably from the trigger shot. I tested every day until the blood draw, watching that line get darker and darker 😁 I'm so glad it worked for you on the first transfer! -I also thought after the successful transfer that I was "just pregnant", but every doctor's appointment I go in for, I learn about new things that are higher risk due to having conceived through IVF. There is certainly more testing and follow-up care with an IVF pregnancy, at least where I live.

I wanted to leave a comment. Because. I love, your love. Love your knowledge, and your genuine nature that comes across so clearly on RU-vid.

Congratulations! Although I actually waited until I was told by my IVF doctor. Just to avoid disappointment. So, I saved myself some nerves and got a super positive test day 10 after transfer)

You guys deserve to have way more subscribers than you do. Your videos are so down to earth, yet super informative. Also love the disclaimer at the end. Congrats on baby #2.

Congratulations!!!! Was not expecting a pregnancy announcement here, I love it!

So so happy for you!!! Congratulations 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

Congratulations! What a beautiful gift of baby #2.. so excited for you all and to follow this journey as well! Also thank you for being so honest about crazy testing as well it makes the rest of us feel a lot better about it 😅

i literally teared when you mentioned the first negative blood test then you got me!!! such a great storyteller 😂 congratulations ❤❤❤❤

Yaaay! Congratulations!! ♥️ Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy and baby!!

I'm so happy for you guys!! Congratulations 👏🏻 I just found out (yesterday) I'm also expecting a second baby ☺️ can't wait to have a full house! Will love to know when is you due date!!

Congrats! Don't feel crazy- I feel like anyone that's gone through a miscarriage or infertility always tests way too early but that's ok! I am due with my rainbow baby in a couple weeks and I tested positive at 9dpo and I waited until 10dpo to tell hubby.

Omg, I wasn't expecting the ending 🥰 I've been here since the beginning and before you guys had Cece and now #2! Congratulations! Again, I'm so thankful for your videos because I was pregnant with my 1st while watching your beautiful journey and we plan for #2 but a year from now. Praying for a successful pregnancy to you and all the mommies 🙏❤️

you guys are always pregnant when i might be 😅 last year when i was looking at these videos you were expecting your first! congratulations! i lost mine last year unfortunately but i’m back again in my 2ww feeling good. thanks for all your help!

Yay for baby number 2!! My first pregnancy symptoms were a runny nose, migraine, and carpel tunnel flare up. I also had one random bout of nausea that week around lunch time.

Yay congrats! We’re trying for our second baby as well, so this is great timing. Thank you!

Congratulations 🎊🎉🎈 so happy for you guys! I love watching your videos so cute and informational without being pushy!

I’ve been waiting for this video! 😝 I’m so happy for y’all! I’m ready to be next. 🤞🏼

Congratulations to you both..still waiting for my embryo transfer at the end of Sept🤩 hoping for a good news too

So happy for you guys! I’ve been along for the ride since you started RU-vid when I was planning! Now I’m having some difficulties when finally trying. Can’t wait to hopefully join you 🤰

This was such a great video.. peace of mind and just confidence 😌. I love that you don't belittle each others emotions on the subject. It's such a great example of a healthy supportive relationship. 👏🏼

Congratulations! I can identify with this so much. I got my positive with my first baby 10dpo after trying for 5 years and got my positive on my second baby 9dpo after an additional 2 years of trying so I know the struggle after spending the better part of a decade doing this. The thing is, no matter how much I said I wasn't gonna test early every month it was like I was powerless to stop it. I also got betas done way to early and had to retest both times as they were there but under 20. On my second I felt like I knew, I got a very unique cramping that I had with my first so when I tested with one of the cheap dip sticks and it was negative I was like nope, I retested with the first response and got my faint line and now I'm 37 weeks lol. Like someone else said though, it's comforting to know that even though you are an ob and know it's not recommended, you feel the same compulsion to test early as the rest of us! I wish you guys the best on this journey and thank you for posting such a relatable video!

Congratulations! So many blessings from Mexico to you. Lots of hugs and love!

Aaah congrats!!! I totally knew it after the last video and all the smiles 🥰🥰🥰

Congrats! 😍 Got my pregnancy positive at 9dpo with a test strip AND digital. I know for sure it was 9dpo bc I take my basal body temperature.

Congratulations guys!!! ❤️ you just made my evening with your news and with your story 😊😄 lots of love! Greetings from Germany!

I didn't test out my trigger but I also tested two days post transfer and it was obviously negative lol. 4dpt I took another test (I was using the wondfo ones because I didn't want to "waste" my FRERs) and it was a faint line, my FIRST EVER positive, because we also dealt with male factor infertility. I ordered my own blood test for 8dpt because I was also anxious and it was 145. Then my clinic started their beta tests at 10dpt and it was 303. 😄 I'm now 33 weeks with my first baby all thanks to IVF. So excited for you, good luck on this journey.

Congratulations!!! This was a very timely video.

Congratulations to both of you, happy pregnancy journey to you. So happy for your

TTC our first and have been loving your videos! Love how honest you are about testing early even as a doctor 😂 it’s my first cycle and think I’ll test way too early too. Congratulations!

I didn't realize y'all were still making videos after baby. Pleasant surprise!! 💖

Congratulations! Absolutely delighted for you guys ❤

I got my positive 5 days post transfer too! Congratulations!

Yay! Now we're pregnant together xD I knew it bc Sarah was suddenly out of breath again in the videos! Unrelated, I'll have to watch the morning sickness vid again, but I don't remember unisom being recommended. My Dr suggested it and omg I've gone from vomiting 8 times in a day to barely any nausea with a combo of unisom and "dramamine" ginger chews. Anyway, congrats again!!

Congratulations! So happy for you both especially after all you went through. Could you do a video on when to start ttc for #2 when someone has had a long journey to #1 (2 years, PCOS, miscarriage, IUIs) and is approaching 40. Including when you might need to stop breastfeeding in order to facilitate hormones resetting for #2. I want to bf for as long as possible but don’t want to lessen my chances of another healthy pregnancy. Thanks so much for all your great info, I’ve been watching since the beginning :)

Started but then skipped the rest of the video cause felt I knew this info. Didn't twig was the announcement video! (Until just saw your most recent journey update). Big congratulations! 😊🥳💜

Congratulations 🎉!!! So super excited for you guys. I love watching you guys videos. Many blessings to you guys.

Omg yay congrats !! We are trying for our second baby so excited!! I've been tracking with Mira Fertility Monitor and my pharmacist recently told me that Mom Med pregnancy tests are in the NY Times rated as sensitive as First Response pregnancy test so I bought a box and tried it out I was impressed they definitely work very accurate but I do get First Response pregnancy tests for free since my Doctor Office only uses First Response pregnancy tests and I get 20 per month for free but the Mom Med pregnancy test is good for people who are trying to save and you want to test daily

Congrats to you all. So happy for you both!

Congratulations!!!!!! So excited for you guys :)

Congrats!!! I’m so happy for y’all!! 🥹

Listening to how out of breath and stuffy Sarah was throughout this video, I had a feeling before they actually said so. ❤❤❤ congrats you guys! So happy for you!

Yay I’m so happy for you guys. I’m pregnant about the same time line as you! So excited to have a buddy to go though this with.

Congrats!!! This is wonderful news.

Congratulations to you both on getting pregnant with baby #2! 🎉 Weird question for you: You mentioned that you recorded your pregnancy test reveal after each TWW, just in case you got a BFP. Did you keep those recordings, and would you consider releasing a compilation of them? (IG may be a more appropriate vehicle than RU-vid for something like that.) I’ve enjoyed following your IVF journey, and what you’ve done to educate us on and normalize fertility issues is AMAZING. ❤

I am sooo happy for you guys. Congratulations❤️🎊🎉🥳. We are also trying hope we get some good news too with second child like you. I have hopes now after hearing your story. Thank you both 🙏🏼

Woooow that was an emotional rollercoaster. Congratulations

Yay!!! Congratulations! I could tell. I hope I get great news too. I just love you two.

Congratulations!!! Happy for you guys!!🤍

Yayyyy!!! Congratulations 🎊🎉🎈 I’m so happy for you two! ♥️🥰

Congratulations! So happy for you!!!! This was an unexpected pregnancy announcement video 😁

Congrats! I'm glad your treatment worked.

Aww congrats guys! And yep I totally tested on 2dpt and was completely crushed when it was stark negative. I got the faintest of squinters on 4dpt (which was my birthday) last year and a very stark clear BPF 6dpt. My baby girl's first transferversary is this month. It was 100% all worth it and I know it will be for you guys, too.

I was smiling so much for you!!!!!! I am also a doctor and going through IUI now :)

Congratulations!!!! It must have been those fries 😉 I found out the ivf was successful in hospital where i got committed due to ovarian hyperstimulation 😬 Getting ill got me hoping for a positive, and it got confirmed with a blood test, but even after that i had to take a home test in the hospital bathroom just to see those two long awaited lines 😛 Best of luck to you in your pregnancy🤞❤️

I’m obsessed with this Channel!! So much good information. So happy to have found your channel

I have never seen your channel before but I am glad I came across! You seem like a very lovely couple ❤❤❤

Congrats! 👏 I'm also pregnant with baby #2 right now, but my baby #1 is 13 years old already. It took us awhile, but now it's even more exciting.

Yayyy! Congratulations!! So happy for you guys!

I'm 13 dpo today and had a negative home test. Our fifth IVF cycle, fourth embryo transfer. I'm afraid this one isn't it either. I never get any frozen embryos and they tend to transfer mine at 3dpo as they seem to stop developing in the lab after. Having my blood tested in 4 days but I kind of lost hope. Greetings from Croatia, your channel has helped me a lot during this time.

Congratulations Sarah & Kurt! 🎉❤

Made my day 🥰 congratulations!

Haha yessss I knew it! Sarah has been so glowy! Congrats to your sweet family!

Thank you for sharing with us!❤️

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!! I am sooo happy for you ☺️ 😊 god bless you 🙏

Congratulations!! Hope you have a healthy baby. Thank you for the effort and informations you give us. I am 25 and I just recently had an ovarian cyst removed through laparoscopy and I am scared of not being able to carry a baby after this procedure. I took an AMH test one month post laparoscopy and it was at 0,5. Before this procedure I was at 1.48 AMH. Was it low because the ovary did not recover yet? and how much time should I wait before taking the test again to get accurate results?

Awwe I am so happy for you and thank you for explaining the implantation process after embryo-transfer! I am 48, currently 37 weeks pregnant first mom to be after my first DE transfer done in Barcelona, Spain on Jan 25. I waited until 10 days post transfer for the beta-test at clinic. I will always remember the call from the nurse revealing the good news:) Cant wait to meet my miracle son soon! Dr.Sarah please be gentle on yourself and do not work too much (I may have adopted the balanced work-family life style a bit too much in the Mediterranean:-)

Congratulations on your bundle of joy

Congratulations 🎉 so happy for you both!

Yayyyyyy! Congratulations guys! Amazing news 🥳 No more saying “first time mom, first time dad” in the intros 💙

Love watching your journey!

Hi! I love your videos so much! But I have a question/video idea. I have endometriosis and polycystic ovaries, and I only have a period 2-5 times per year, so its really hard for me to track ovulation. Would you be willing to make a video about TTC with irregular cycles? I’d love to hear about both at home options and medication options for improving chances of conception for people like me. I can’t find much information about it anywhere! When I look it up, I just hear about IVF. I’d really really appreciate hearing about other options and I’m sure other women and families feel the same way! Thanks so so much!

Congratulations so happy for you all xx 😁❤️
