Hey this isn't my first thread but im looking for poas addicts like me!
I can not help but test every day from 5dpo Iv tried to stop my self but I just can't, Iv had a few chemicals and early miscarriage so deep down I know I should stop testing so early to avoid the disappointment but I can't 😁 I'm ok with that but I'm just my partner wouldn't be if he found out how much it hurts my bank balance ahah.
I track cycles with opks just to get my daily hit ;)
Anyone else want to join me ? I'm in my TWW now but not sure on dpo could be 2-5 dpo as I run out of opks 🙄
Hope to find people to join me x

I'll join you!
I'm 4dpo right now, but had got my ovulation dates wrong (thought I'd missed my peak when it actually came a week late!)
Driving myself crazy because I thought ovulation was 11 days ago so this 2 week wait has turned into a 3 week wait haha.
Probably will POAS later just incase I've completely calculated everything wrong (plus I use the cheapies so I'll sometimes use them when I use OPKs so I know they aren't defective and giving false positives).

@Jely123 @Kayleaaa @Skl2021, seems like we are all within a few days of each other! How are you all? I'm trying SO hard not to symptom spot, I have taken the relaxed approach and trying to not get caught up in it all this cycle 🤞🏻

Hi!
I'm back! I'm either ovulating today or 4dpo I don't actually know 😂 I suffer with PCOS
One app says it's my ovulation today and another says it was 4 days ago..
the cheapy ovulation tests gave me a peak Tuesday and still getting a good second line today. So I think I am maybe 2dpo realistically?
I'm peeing on a stick addict too. I bought a load of cheapy pregnancy tests for later into my cycle and one FRER to use but I'm not going to use it until I'm due to bleed. (Which is unknown as I'm bloody so sporadic! Maybe I'll just wait 10 days after the ovulation tests stop showing positives)
I've had a couple chemical pregnancy's too now and I should just relax and enjoy the process but I don't 😬 x

No symptoms here but it's too early yet. Just want this next week to fly all I can think about is testing 🤦 I say I try to take a relaxed approach but then it goes out the window as I have no self control 🤣 also got cheapies to keep my poas addiction under control 🙊🙄 x

Welcome everyone! Glad to see old faces back 😁 hope your all doing well!
When are you all planning on testing?
Iv had a werid cycle after chemical and had high opks all cycle but think my peak was cd16 but run out of opks so didn't test again after kept an eye on EWCM and had loads! Cd19 witch was 2 days ago. So realistically I could be 2dpo but my opks were the same darkness since 13 dpo no honestly a little lost this month ahah!
Iv started testing already 🙄xx

@Jely123 wow you have tested already 🤣🙈 that's good going that! I was going to try and hold out until 10dpo but dont know if I will be able too. . might take a leaf out of your book and test 😁 x

Just did an OPK out of curiosity and it was almost a peak! So I did a HCG test and there's a shadow of a line (may be evap though or indent probably!).
My body is being so confusing, or I need to buy better tests!

🙈 aha I useally would wait until 6dpo but started early as I'm so not sure this cycle!
I suppose as long as you can deal with negatives and it won't kill your hope then why not ! Xx

@Jely123 I thought you don't implant until day 7 at the earliest? That's why IV never tested that early? X

Oh of course but I can't seem to wait more then 6dpo aha!
I did last cycle along with pregnancy tests witch was a chemical faint positives until they faded after a while, Iv always got pretty decent lines on opks and they stayed normal for me with the chemical xx

I usually start testing at day 8. I buy a bulk pack of cheapies to satisfy my need to piss on something. And then I usually buy 4 FRERs and if I think I'm in with a chance I'll use those 10dpo or after.

I'm 1dpo now I think, CD24 and twingy already so it could go that I have a really short second half of the cycle.

As I have 0 self control and run out of ovulation cheapies (Amazon delays)
I took a cheapie pregnancy test and I swear I can see a really squinter there?! I honestly have no idea where my body is at! So I'm probably just crazy so why do I do this to myself!

@Roo3125 I see something! Fingers are crossed for you. Maybe test in 2 days and check again as it should be clearer by then?
(As a poas addict I know that I'd test again tomorrow though 😂)
Keep us updated xx

@Jely123 They came with my OPKs but probably wouldn't buy them. Don't like the strips 😂 they don't seem flimsy as such but definitely cheap! 😂

Hi everyone. We are TTC number 2... I think I am somewhere between 8-10 DPO. I fell pregnant in January but had a miscarriage at 7 weeks unfortunately. I left it one cycle for dates and to feel a bit better and now here we are.
I felt very sick and dizzy in January and knew I was pregnant but kept getting BFN until I was 13DPO.
I feel like I am a bit nauseated now but perhaps I am convincing myself.
Tried a cheapie this morning (negative) and I am so tempted to FREE but trying to wait 😫
It's so hard!
I can see something above ! That's encouraging xxx

Heya! I'm a bit further along about 8-9 DPO I thought I got like a shadow of a line yesterday eve on a cheapie but I took a FRER this morning which was stark white.
Last month I was was certain I was positive, spotting, cramping, dizziness, nausea from 5DPO to AF but nothing. This month I have not had a single symptom.
I use both OPKs and charting and DTD everyday between peak and ovulation temp rise this month so am hopeful.

Hi everyone! Due AF on the 11th and stupidly have done FRERs every day for the last 4 days, each negative. I feel sick, really tired (had 2 naps yesterday!), swollen boobs and really emotional for no reason. I’m assuming it’s not my month but I don’t feel right iykwim. It’s driving me mad. X
