HPTs are stupid

So depending on which websites or forums you read, everyone gets different results. Pretty much most people say not to POAS before your first Beta.....yeah right. The 2ww is hard enough. I am 11dp3dt so you would think that I would get even a faint BFP. Well, I got a clear BFN. I am trying not to think too much of it since implantation could be taking longer or my embryos are not secreting enough HCG yet to pick up on HPTs. There are so many variables and that is why technically we shouldn't test before the first beta at 14dp3dt. There are plenty of stories of women taking HPT on the morning of their blood test and getting a BFN all the while getting a positive beta number later that day. Still.....HPTs are stupid. For all intensive purposes - I am still PUPO. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
