Get me a straitjacket...I can't stop testing my pee because I've lost my mind.

In a nutshell;
-Been with hubby now 10years, married for 2
-Decided to start trying for a baby
-Never been on the pill, all hail the wonders of condoms
-I ovulated on the 4th June and baby danced on both 4th and 5th
-Im taking STUPID tests every single day (cheapo amazon and SD)
-all were negative but of course I'm testing TOO EARLY
-and breathe...

I need some direction ladies. Why am I feeling so intensely crazy? I can't even wait another 5 days till period is due. Okay so I feel some weird symptoms, like a period pain type of niggling pain every night, a silly tonne of flatulence and hysteria. I just can't stop testing.

I even had a very vivid and incredibly real dream this morning that 2 lines appeared. So I tested but still a BFN.

How can I stop myself from testing every day? Has anyone else been a mad woman and done this?

Ah sorry anban xxx

Cookie1831 · 29/06/2017 11:17

Hi sam welcome sorry about your miscarriage xx

Vicsteur81 · 29/06/2017 11:25

Sorry to hear that @anban fingers and toes crossed for next time.

Hi Sam and Emily.

I'm loving the pity party vibes. I might just hid at home in my PJ's for the next week and a bit.

I'm next due to test the same day we are due to see the MIL for the first time in ages. Fingers crossed for a bfp so I can smugly float above the BS Wink

Girls just so you know, if you put a ring around the display window or a hair grip next to it, it will focus the picture a lot more on the result so we can read it better Wink. One other piece of advice is don't do the clear blue digital until you get a clear positive on the normal one otherwise you will be disappointed every time not the voice of experience talking, no no no Grin

Cookie1831 · 29/06/2017 14:26

Really??? I was wondering why people did that I thought it was some romantic good luck thing or people showing off their nice jewellery Grin
I have been and bought 2 yes 2 double FRER packs do I be stupid or hold out for the morning......

raspberrycordial · 29/06/2017 14:58

I did too but it's not it really helps focus the camera on the result! Hold off, I know it's probably pointless me saying it as I know you'll probably test anyway, but you'll only think "should have done it in the morning, now I'll have to do it again in the morning" Grin

emilyvb · 29/06/2017 15:46

Cookie, back away from the FRERs...

Pinkemi · 29/06/2017 16:03

Im in a really weird sort of limbo mode.. Apps think I am not in my fertile window.. yet OPKS say I am. My 2 week wait is going to be longer. gah!

SnowWhite123 · 29/06/2017 19:07

Hi again ladies. So sorry about the Clear Blue confusing positives, seem to hear nothing but bad things about them lately! I am now 18 days for AF and took this test yesterday evening (will attach a test) Said I wouldn't POAS until AF showed but I'm an addict god damnit! I don't believe the faint line because I've tested negative again this morning!

*I meant 'attach a picture'...

Cookie1831 · 29/06/2017 19:23

I can see that too although it does look a bit grey did it come up in the time? X

Sam91TRS15 · 29/06/2017 19:52

Thanks cookie! How many days til you are due AF? If you are within a week maybe try tomorrow AM?
I defo see a line snow, hopefully it's something! Ive never seen an evap line on those types of tests.
Pinkemi, I've not used OPKs before, last cycle I had obvious ovulation bleed and pains for the first time, and that was 4-5 days earlier than my diary suggested, so I would maybe go with the OPK? How many dpo will that make you?

SnowWhite123 · 29/06/2017 19:59

Yeah, it came up straight away Cookie. Are you testing again in the morning?

I've purposely not visited any shops today and will purchase a test tomorrow morning to see if it was a false positive or if I am indeed pregnant!

Cookie1831 · 29/06/2017 20:26

My AF was due 4 days ago but my cycles are a bit screwed up last bleed was actually an early miscarriage was only about 4 and a bit weeks, didn't use OPK this month and no idea when ovulated, am not feeling very enthusiastic as only DTD 3 or 4 times this month

Cookie1831 · 29/06/2017 20:27

Of course I am testing tomorrow I have no self control!!

Sam91TRS15 · 29/06/2017 21:09

Oh cookie, sorry about your MC Sad. I hope you get your bfp soon!

Anban · 29/06/2017 22:41

I read dare to dream by izzy judd today and it was so good but made me teary.

I am out of the pity party this month, gotta start getting ready for my next little egg. Roll on CD18. Party cos I am missing peeing on sticks XD

Sorry to hear about your mc cookie.

And I can see a shadow snowwhite!

Cookie1831 · 30/06/2017 08:01

Nothing on FRER definitely no more blue dye tests for me they lie! Feeling ok will test again in a couple of days x

SnowWhite123 · 30/06/2017 17:05

Sorry to hear that Cookie, fingers crossed for you in the next few days.

I've took a FRER today and think I can see something?
