Hi wondering if anyone is around 9dpo and wants to join me for the agonising wait? I'm trying to hold off from testing until at least 12dpo but it's so hard! I've never obsessed over something so much and I'm only on my 2nd cycle Sad

I’m 3dpo and I’m going mad already and this is only my first cycle 🙈 I’m trying to wait till 12dpo but I don’t know how I’m going to manage it!!

I'm 6po and for some reason decided to just test this afternoon. Why? I really can't answer that as I know perfectly well it is pretty much impossible (if not completely impossible) to get a bpf today. Sigh. Gave in! Will aim to wait u til 10dpo now and I know realistically I won't wait any more than that!

Oh god I know exactly what you mean @spottypyjamas you're not alone! I tested last night with a test that isn't even designed to pick up pregnancy early, and I didn't even use my morning wee! Knew it would be negative but couldn't help myself!

@lavenderlove this is only my second cycle, trying to not to get too stressed as I was convinced last month and was really upset when I got a negative so trying to do the opposite. Think I've just convinced myself it'll take a while so I'm not getting my hopes up? I was the complete opposite last month lol

I’m 10dpo and had stayed strong but lost the willpower tonight and did an IC, not particularly concentrated hold. Convinced myself it was a squinter until I put it through an app to invert the colours and have concluded I’m imagining it! SIGH

@sunshine1987 it's my second cycle too and like you I was upset last month as well. I seem to have ramped the stress up more this month though by using OPK's and thinking about nothing else! Going to have to have a word with myself if it doesn't happen this month as like you say it could take a while

@Bellafreud if you saw something that could be promising, good luck! It's so difficult not to test but hopefully we can be strong until AF is a day late (probably won't happen)

@lavenderlove you're the same as me! I'm struggling! Did a test this morning at 9DPO.. negative of course!

Had really bad cramping for 5 days now but no bleeding.

I expect I am out for this month tbh xx

Hi everyone, first cycle trying here and doing my best to pick up the lingo! 12 dpo today, gave in and tested at 10 dpo which was negative and I was stupidly disappointed. We conceived ds first cycle so although I told myself we were never going to be so lucky second time, I couldn't help getting my hopes up.
