Come on pink, be strong! Only a few days... I have vowed to wait til Friday and if you poas now then I might have to as well Grin.
And I am sorely tempted as have a cracking headache and feel quite unwell... But af not due til weds and I have never tested early, trying not to cave now!

SpanishLady · 04/03/2013 13:50

Pink - 7dpo is early you might get a faint line and then be stressed about if it real or not? A BFN wouldnt mean anything either - but understand thats it is still'doing' something and thats empowering.

Think of it this way - today doesnt count nor does Friday as that is the POAS day so you only have 3 days to wait!

whats the earliest anyone gor a result? mines 10dpo so maybe bring it forward to Thursday?

I have no self control btw so would want to too but just trying to help!

Thunderbuns · 04/03/2013 14:20

Ok as the wholly ignored but desperate to be involved system administrator, would you like to move the official test day to thursday girls?

fod27 · 04/03/2013 14:22

Hahaaa brilliant!

Cross those legs! ;)

SaggyOldClothCatpuss · 04/03/2013 14:35

RIGHT! As resident sick and bored person, AF knocking on the door, hasnt had sex for a week...
DO NOT POAS!
Wait until friday. You know it makes sense! If you do it now and get a BFN you will be disappointed. If you do it now and get aBFP, but others dont, they will be disappointed. You are wasting pee sticks. Its too early, and THERE IS A SYSTEM DAMMIT! Grin

Thunderbuns · 04/03/2013 14:41

Ooo the system! I've never been backed up before when I'm off on a bonkers mission. Go saggy!!

SaggyOldClothCatpuss · 04/03/2013 14:42

Thunderbuns · 04/03/2013 14:44

You do realise though saggy that the system does literally fly out the window when it comes to poas. You shouldn't stand between a woman and her pee stick....

SaggyOldClothCatpuss · 04/03/2013 15:00

Must stick to the system. unless you have an endless supply of £1shop cheapies

IBelieveInPink · 04/03/2013 15:25

Saggy. I think I love you.
Thunder, slapping is appreciated.
Spanish - logic wins.
DIY, we shall wait til Friday. Well done for holding out this long!! I will be 2 days early as it is on Friday, so you are already 1 day better than me!

That was an amazing pep talk. I am now completely put off poas, (even though mine only cost 17p!!)

But you are right. I will not feel better. If I am, it will prolong the agony of will it stick. If I am not, I will cry. Daily. Until BFP or af.
So I shall stick to the system. And poas Friday.

Well done.

And loving the posifrickentivity. although my spell check is not

DIYandEatCake · 04/03/2013 15:42

pink well done! Now i need to stay strong too... Only 2 days til either af comes or I start getting hopeful. Must just keep thinking, poas will change nothing... Will not even buy any til at least Thursday to avoid tempting fate!

IBelieveInPink · 04/03/2013 15:46

You can do it. You are almost there. (although seriously, waiting until 2 days after af due- that's some willpower you have there!!!!!)

shellshock7 · 04/03/2013 16:17

Whispers....I am POAS on Thurs...prob Wed too if past months are anything to go by Blush

Thunderbuns · 04/03/2013 16:19

Oo you're brave whispering that in 'ere, shell!

shellshock7 · 04/03/2013 16:24

Ha ha, I will redeem myself by telling fod I got pg with DS 3m after MMC Smile

fod27 · 04/03/2013 17:22

Shellshock... You are officially redeemed and crowned the posifrickintivity queen!

Thunderbuns · 04/03/2013 18:26

shell - when is your af due?

Mummytothearkbuilder · 04/03/2013 18:28

I love hearing positive stories about falling pregnant after miscarriage and carrying to term so thanks for sharing Smile

I won't wade in on the when to POAS as I am the worst person when it comes to waiting - I have no patience - goodness knows how much money I have spent / wasted on testing early!! Good luck...........whenever you test!!

Xx

CamomileHoneyVanilla · 04/03/2013 18:36

Crikey - its been chaotic here since I last visited. Fod, Saggy and Tins, sorry you've had a tough time of it.

Fingers crossed March is a better month for all of us. Loving 'posifrickintivity' as a concept and am definitely on board with any system that stops me spending approximately £65 on pregnancy tests (eek). My AV is due next Wed (taking day of m/c as day 1). Fingers crossed its all nice and straightforward and she appears on time.

shellshock7 · 04/03/2013 19:14

Ha ha nice one fod

CD28 is Thurs which is why I try to test first that day, tho AF usually arrives CD29 or 30...surprised me and came 28 last time thoConfused

Bakingtins · 04/03/2013 20:04

Sorry to put a spanner in your posifrickintivity, but have to report that I'm now pretty sure I'm MC again. I am bleeding and cramping, not just spotting. Sad Won't be back with you as this was our last attempt, but wanted to say a massive thank you to you all, you've kept me nearly sane over the last 6 months and I really hope you all get to take home lovely healthy babies.

Mummytothearkbuilder · 04/03/2013 20:24

Baking I'm so so sorry to hear that - I'm thinking of you and sending lots of hugs xx

DIYandEatCake · 04/03/2013 20:32

Oh baking that is thoroughly shitty luck, I'm so sorry. Thank you for the support you've given me too, and I hope life sends you some good luck in other ways.

I was going to come on here and be all me me me again but I'm off to talk some sense into myself and count my blessings.

Thunderbuns · 04/03/2013 20:37

FUCK baking. This is so crap. I'm really really sorry. Thanks

JanieLovesCake · 04/03/2013 20:43
