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?

Well I'm still feeling nauseous and absolutely knackered but that could be me imagining pregnancy symptoms. I will wait to do a test until my period was actually due. It's my birthday this weekend and I think DH has organised people to visit and stay over for a party. How on earth do to avoid drinking in this scenario without letting on?! I mean i am probably not pregnant but theres a chance I am!

Cookie1831 · 27/09/2017 09:57

I did that before is there any colour of wine the guests won't drink? I bought myself an alcohol free rose and decanted it into a normal rose bottle so looked like I was drinking! Or another trick is to make gin and tonic which is actually just tonic! Could you test with a FRER the morning they arrive?

chewbacca83 · 27/09/2017 14:42

Great tips...I will have to get some tonic in! I have a test I will do on the Saturday morning. Fingers crossed!!

Pinkemi · 27/09/2017 15:41

@Cookie1831 That is a very clever thing to do with the alcohol free wine!! I might do that for the lodge weekend. ha! I was going to say the bleed could be ovulation bleeding.. but if you are on day 21 i doubt that would be the case. fingers crossed!!

@chewbacca83 where abouts are you in your cycle again?

I "think" I have just come out of my fertile window.. according to my apps.. so now it is the waiting game for me.

Cookie1831 · 27/09/2017 17:42

We'll have absolutely no spotting today and no real symptoms either didn't manage to DTD last night so am hoping if it was ovulation the little swimmers from Saturday night will have still been around please pretty please!!! Seriously though everyone is pregnant everywhere I look and on TV 3 kardashians at once wtf? (Slightly concerning addiction to celeb gossip 😳Blush

Cookie1831 · 27/09/2017 17:42

Forgot my )

chewbacca83 · 27/09/2017 23:39

I am about 12 days post ovulation and should I been due on Friday this week. But came on a week early. But only for 2 1/2 days.

Cookie1831 · 28/09/2017 10:17

Weird the short bleed was it heavy or light? Well I stupidly did another FRER this morning and negative but am only on day 23 so not a surprise but I just feel so bloody pregnant! My boobs hurt, I felt dizzy earlier, everybody smells (I deal with the public) and last night I couldn't sleep as my joints were aching which happened with my last pregnancy damned body playing tricks with me going to try and hold out testing again until after weekend if I can!

Pinkemi · 28/09/2017 16:03

ooh im on day 15 and feeling very moist. haha. Might have to DTD tonight :)

chewbacca83 · 28/09/2017 17:08

It was heavy for 1 day. Dont feel pregnant though. Just tired. Will do test at the weekend and if clear then I'm going to enjoy my bday!

JemDoughnut · 28/09/2017 19:05

@Pinkemi Update...I came on the day after my last post. Even though I wasn't expecting a BFP, feeling a bit more down than previous cycles. I had a good month with other life stuff and felt like I was on a roll, but it was also very non-stop, and I think a combo of being exhausted and falling from that high made it suck more.

Cookie1831 · 29/09/2017 10:21

Sorry jem it's just so shit! I am just surrounded by pregnant people drives me insane!

LOL moist!!😆💦💦💦

Cookie1831 · 29/09/2017 10:21

Happy birthday for tomorrow chew xxx

chewbacca83 · 01/10/2017 00:37

Thanks for the birthday wishes. I took a clear blue test this morning and it was negative so I have been cheering myself with wine!

Cookie1831 · 01/10/2017 12:51

I am totally convinced I am pregnant boobs hurt strong sense of smell 2 dizzy spells but 2 FRER say otherwise bah humbug I am always deluding myself! Hope the head isn't sore today x

Pinkemi · 02/10/2017 09:23

Oh NO @JemDoughnut.. I'm so sorry that this is not your month. Time to cheer yourself up with some wine and a pampering session!

@chewbacca83 and @Cookie1831 sorry to hear about the negatives.. that sucks! We really aren't having much luck are we!

Things with me.. well im on CD20.. and still feeling very wet down there (sorry. ) It is not very usual for me this late on.. so i was trying to be hopeful..

But.. my BBT has dropped 3 days in a row.. and is now below my predicted fertile stage temps. Confused I thought maybe im ovulating now instead but I dont have any EWCM.. just very watery!

technically is should be in my 2WW now.. so my temps should be rising! I have no idea what is going on. Sad

Pinkemi · 02/10/2017 10:30

Screenshot for reference.. I didn't use OPK's this month so my fertile period is based on the last month.

Cookie1831 · 02/10/2017 11:21

I don't know very much about BbT but from what you saying wetness is good but temp drop probably not?xx
We aren't having much luck at all I agree! Am CD 27 here and the sore boobs I had have gone and my Cm seems stretchy probably just ovulated and my OH is away for the next few days did DTD on Saturday night you never know? X

Pinkemi · 03/10/2017 11:19

Oohh looks like this morning it went rocketing up again.. so fingers crossed! This whole BBT thing is more complicated then it looks. haha

Ovia is telling me that I can test on Monday.. but im thinking I'm not going to bother.

Told one of the girls who is going on this weekend with me that Im not going to be drinking coz im doing a detox. So hopefully i can get away with it. Its going to be smack bang in my 2WW and i would rather not run the risk. I know what im like.. I say "Ill only have a couple" and will then end up drinking a whole bottle of wine. Blush

Cookie1831 · 03/10/2017 11:53

Oh yay! Please may it be BFP am so fed up at the minute even if it is somebody's else's news I need some baby dust to celebrate!! Cd28 bfn but pretty sure am ovulating late and husband away ffs!!!

Cookie1831 · 03/10/2017 14:16

I keep looking at my Neg Frer and imagining lines 😳

Pinkemi · 04/10/2017 10:43

@Cookie1831 what are you doing woman? chuck that used stick away already! As soon as i get a negative, that bad boy goes into the bin never to be seen again! haha

I love Ovia.. but at the same time I hate it.. It told me this morning that if i had conceived this cycle, then my egg should have implanted by now and would be starting to grow.

So me being me.. Im now looking at my chart and wondering if that was an implantation dip! its also even more reason for me to NOT drink at this weekend away. gah!

Now trying really hard not to symptom spot.. .. wait.. was that a twinge in my boob??? Wink

Cookie1831 · 04/10/2017 11:18

Ha ha ha thanks pink somebody needs to slap me and hide my purse so I stop buying tests!! And then burn the mother f**kers as soon as I use them to stop me looking at them!! Am officially a lunatic!! So having loads of pregnancy symptoms I decided that it would be a GREAT (bloody ridiculous) idea to use OPKs again in case my symptoms are ovulation instead...so Monday morning big fat empty circle, yesterday morning flashing smiley then yesterday afternoon solid smiley! So I am either ovulating and caught it amazingly quickly which means have missed it as hubby away but did do the deed Saturday night so a tiny glimmer of hope some little swimmers still in there or am kidding myself that I have one of those super weird uncommo n pregnancies where you get loads of symptoms before BFP? I have so many stretchy pains down there every time I sit down its like an electric shock across my pelvic area the only time I have experienced this before is pregnancy, no stinging or burning when I wee so not uti either! Argghhh shoot me now somebody

Pinkemi · 04/10/2017 16:51

@Cookie1831 I think you need to try and step away from the sticks! All this stressing isnt good for you. :(

When are you due?

Cookie1831 · 04/10/2017 17:52

Today! I know am driving myself insane but feel so shit!
