Conception

Need a slap!

So I have pcos and after having clomid to conceive my 1st dd, I've been getting regular periods (well very 28-31 days) for the 1st time ever, so we thought we would try naturally. So now I'm addicted to doing pregnancy tests. For gods sake. Rationally I know you should wait until you miss a period but every time I do one I'm gutted because it reads negative. I'm due on tomorrow I've got no period symptoms and negative test today. I just have to type this to off load! Crazy bird at the mo!

Another crazy bird here, serial poas'er. Yep, I'm not the person to slap you, in fact I could probably do with one myself!

It's hard not to get sucked into the excitement though isn't it? The symptom spotting etc :)

I know!! I just convince myself I am, then do a test which makes me think it's obviously my period coming BUT what if it's because I bought cheap tests or did them too early!?!? Arrgghhh! I know I will come on but there's always that but maybe....maybe I'm a nutter!!

Best not to have them in the house or they become the equivalent of a tube of Pringles. You just keep going back, they are addictive.

I've started doing tests on expected day, it just saves the hours/ days of niggling wonder and I've been very regular for first time too! I heard ( and find it convenient to accept) that the cheap ones are more likely to give a false positive than a false negative.

Don't tell me the cheap ones give false results!!! I've done a pack of 3 this last week, they need warning pictures on them like cigarettes-pictures of frazzled woman with calendars and giant watches
