The 2 week wait is torture!

Anybody else itching to obsessively test? I was like a crazy lady last month testing 3 times a day with Internet cheapos and also wasted a small fortune on expensive brands convinced the cheap ones may have been lying. Yes I know, rediculous!

So this month I'm resisting the urge till totm is due. Really struggling though as I have about 10 days to go and time seems to be going so slow. Had lots of cramping yesterday and extreme sickness for the past 5 days too. Way too early for nausea from HCG I would have thought but I can't help but wonder.

Anybody else struggle with the 2 week wait? If I make it to cycle 3 I'm going to have to learn to relax a bit and focus on the now and be more patient, as I'm boxing my own head with Google and symptom spotting argh.

I do! Lol 11-13dpo and BFN this morning on an Internet cheapie. I have now convinced myself they are not accurate Grin

I have really sore boobs, dizziness and a strange taste in my mouth. No nausea though. Argh I just wish I knew one way or the other!!

When is AF due?

Totm is due roughly 20th so I've ages to wait argh. I have lots of symptoms but never know as I thought I did last month too. Didn't feel this sick and dizzy though it was mild last month but there's lots of bugs doing the rounds so trying not to read too much into it.

I think the Internet ones aren't very sensitive, I read they say 10miu but more like 25 hmm. DH has hidden my stash of tests upon request as I don't trust myself lol.

I've used up all my internet cheapies since 7-9 dpo. I am thinking of buying a first response tomorrow if AF doesn't show.

This morning I decided my butter on toast tasted weird, so I thought great it's probably a symptom and then offered the rest of the toast to the dog (who loves toast) and he spat it out Shock so now I don't know what to think Grin

Argh the tww is making me crazy

Could you buy a Frer Ob and wait till Thursday? With my first I didn't get a positive till week after totm so if your getting negatives on cheapies maybe wait a bit longer?

The toast incident made me chuckle! I've decided coffee tastes funny too hmmm

Argh AF flow cramps last night and so I was convinced this morning I would wake up to AF. But no, cramps have completely disappeared and still no AF. Now three days late and no BFP.

Argh I don't know what to think anymore.

I need a hobby too Grin

The wait is awful isn't it. No AF is good sign though. Well I decided it would be a good idea to test this morning, obviously too early to tell as I'm 5-6dpo at most. Did get a faint line but pretty sure it's an indentation so now I'm sitting on my hands for a week as driving myself mad!!!

AF arrived this morning, I'm a little bit sad but had kinda lost hope for this cycle anyway. Next month hopefully will be my month!
