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?

cookie, I'm so glad AF came for you! Did it come naturally or did the docs give you anything to help regulate your cycle?
pinkemi, hopefully you will have better luck this month without the EPO, and your doing the clearblue thing this month too right?
Everybody else defo seem to have disappeared, so I thought I'd say hi!

Pinkemi · 28/07/2017 14:26

@Sam91TRS15 ha! we must have posted at the same time! :)

having a blonde moment.. what does EPO stand for?

I am doing EVERYTHING and anything I can do get my BFP this month! haha

Sam91TRS15 · 28/07/2017 14:46

pinkemi I love your organisation! I got my digi positive earlier this week on dd's birthday, I think that was a week after my first super faint BFP. But I'm still hanging around for now as I'm going to be very nervous about believing it until I see a scan.

EPO was evening primrose oil you were talking about?

Pinkemi · 28/07/2017 15:07

@Sam91TRS15 OH! HA! Of course! duh! Sorry.. i completely forgot i had shortened it. Grin Told you I'm having one of those days...

YEY FOR BFP! :) I hope it stays for you.. i really do. (very jelly here.. ;-) )

Cookie1831 · 28/07/2017 15:40

Hi sam and congrats great news xx

Cookie1831 · 28/07/2017 15:41

That made me LOL at the EPO!

Pinkemi · 28/07/2017 15:46

Honestly I feel like such a ditz today... Probably doesnt help that I think I was trying to stop myself from thinking about it. Had a nightmare the other night where I woke up balling my eyes out. My DH was like.. Confused coz i woke up him with the crying.

I had dreamt that I was my womb basically rejecting my fertilised egg because the Evening Primrose had told me to (and i was scared of her.) Funnily enough EPO in my dream looked a lot like my boss! It was like my work place clashing with my need for a BFP.

(You are all going to think i'm weird now.. I'm not.. i promise! I just have a very active imagination! )

Sam91TRS15 · 28/07/2017 16:17

Thanks girls! I am looking forward to your bfps!! pinkemi you sounds like me right now - foggy headed and weird vivid dreams... Where are you in your cycle? Maybe that's a good sign!

Pinkemi · 28/07/2017 16:26

I am at day 13.. (second) peak yesterday.. so a little early i think for anything to be happening? Unless my first peak was actually my fertile period.. Although saying that it feels more like it is now! Think I am just tired..

Lalalax3 · 28/07/2017 20:04

I didn't have a âž•, it was false, but I got a v faint âž• yesterday. On holiday in Italy at the moment and now know how to ask for a pregnancy test in Italian!

Cookie1831 · 28/07/2017 20:12

Eeeekkkk mrs G exciting! X

Pinkemi · 28/07/2017 20:18

@mrsgembles.. sorry I thought you had! Sorry to hear it was false.. but yet for + Now!!! Grin have a great time in Italy!

Damn I am hungry today.. eaten so much yet my stomach just growled at me.. is it a sign?? (Or just IBS.) Haha

JustAMuggle · 28/07/2017 21:17

I'm still here.. lurking in the background as I didn't just want to be a constant moaner haha!

Still waiting for AF despite having every sign that she's on her way (hunger, cramps, back pain, tiredness - and then the two new signs nausea and stupidly sore boobs).. I keep thinking they're all pointing to one thing and keep getting BFN's. I think my last bleed was a withdrawal bleed after stopping my pill so I'm all over the place.

Has anyone read the Izzy Judd 'Dare to dream' book?

Xjo1992x · 28/07/2017 21:39

Heyy! New to the thread!
I have a test in the bathroom drawer... It's been there for 2 weeks and I have resisted so far!
We aren't "trying" .... But we aren't "not trying" either, but I'm just so impatient to know!!
Eek!
I have sore boobs, nausea, cramps everywhere in my abdomen, and very bloated (+ my nipples are going crazy!)! (Have never had sore boobs before, even before AF)
I was due AF 4 days ago! So now I'm getting crazy nervous!
Fingers crossed!!

Xjo1992x · 28/07/2017 21:42

Oo! And I'm pretty certain I had an implantation bleed 2 weeks into my cycle!

ScarletSienna · 28/07/2017 22:59

Xjo-are you waiting for a certain amount of time to pass before testing?

Xjo1992x · 28/07/2017 23:18

Yes. I don't want to see that dreaded bfn. So I'm waiting until a week after my missed af as that's when you're most likely to get your bfp (if at all!)

ScarletSienna · 28/07/2017 23:23

I didn't realise that! I assumed that for standard tests, they would say from day if missed AF! Thanks Smile

TheGrumpySquirrel · 29/07/2017 06:49

Sorry been AWOL.. I'm just entering FW again now and will be testing mid August (I'm going on holiday on the 11th which is cd24 so that should be a good distraction!)

Anban · 29/07/2017 07:40

Soo...

I am not getting my hopes up. I am going to test again with my CB digital as soon as I have enough pee.

@Anban Shockthat's so exciting! Looks like congratulations are in order Grin

Cookie1831 · 29/07/2017 19:27

Hi girls!!! Oh anban how can you not get your hopes up that is a very clear positive hope it sticks xxx

Anban · 29/07/2017 20:30

It was cos it was superdrug and I heard bad things about it.

But the second test, (first response) was also pretty lined so yay.

What makes beans stick? Honey? Melted marshmallows? Grin

Cookie1831 · 29/07/2017 21:39

Mmmm yummy worth a try!!
