And just wait for af? Just wondering!

I have on a couple of occasions when af was due and I was planning on drinking a lot but generally I just wait.

I think its less disappointing just waiting,(were on cycle13) although I guess if you just poas then u know for sure.

I was a waiter. I POAS a lot for one cycle because I suspected implantation failure and wondered if I would get a faint line for a day or two, and then occasionally if I had a wedding or something close to when AF would be due. But otherwise I saved my money.

You're so good! As is my friend! I, on the hand, regularly waste my money (and sanity) on them lol

I am in the no-POAS-and-wait-for-AF club. Cycle 10 here and too many disappointments. I find it less heart breaking when AF arrives then seeing a stark white background on a stick

Very very very rarely - did recently because of a funny bleed followed by extreme nausea (was worried about possible ectopic...).

Normally my cycles are a very predictable 29 days. I willbe in CD31 tomorrow, but had the most horrendous cramps today, that I don't think that I could possibly be pregnant (and no symptoms).

This is our 12th cycle for DC2. Due to start IVF (ICSi) as soon as AF shows her face this time... Will have to POAS at the end if that cycle...

I'm definitely one for waiting. And also a long-term trier. Yes - I reckon there's something in that - you get to the point where AF is less heartbreaking than a single line staring at you. Again. I used to be POAS from about 7 DPO...stopped that on about month 12.

I was a waiter with DD, too depressing otherwise.

Puppymummy, is an HSG a hysterosalpingogram? If so, I got up duffed within 2 months of mine, good luck!
