Why do we do it to ourselves?!

[VJONES1985]

There's no line on this test and yet I'm staring at it anyway. I'm only 7dpo so I shouldn't even be bothering, but I'm getting obsessed. So annoyed with myself right now!!

JUST posted too as I'm 7 dpo and getting the urge to POAS

You are a stronger woman than me

Ugh I've done the same lol I'm only 6dpo...it's the feeling that if you don't do it you might be missing out on the BFP but the disappointment that comes with a negative is so upsetting!!! I wonder at what point the earliest you can test is with it still being accurate! I so need to invest in FRER!!!

Well, FRER tests say they can detect HCG from 5 days before your period is due but many women don't get a positive until much later than that.

I am 8dpo and did a test today this morning the first test I used was the cheap asda one and I swear I could see a faint line but wasn't sure. I decided to get the clear blue pt and did the test which showed that I'm pregnant, I could clearly see the lines. I was shocked as my period is due in 8 days time. I must say from the day I ovulate until now which is now 8 days I have had backaches thorough out the whole week which alarmed me of this pregnancy. good luck all.xx

Congratulations! I got absolutely nothing today so I don't know what go expect tomorrow when I test (which I undoubtedly will). I'm 99 per cent sure I'm pregnant anyway, have had loads of symptoms since 1dpo (obviously caused by the progesterone surge rather than implantation) and I feel exactly how I did when first pregnant with my son. I hope ot appears tomorrow.

Pretty sure I'd have more of an inkling if I were pregnant. Last time I KNEW with absolute certainty because I could suddenly smell everything in technicolor and my mouth tasted like a badger had shat in it. I also had areolas that looked like road maps.

@lookingforthecorkscrew Yup, these are my symptoms so far...

1dpo and 2dpo - hot, light headed, low energy, exhausted, fluttering at pubic line, blocked nose, sore boobs

3dpo - headache, nausea, sore boobs, light cramping

4dpo - nausea, exhaustion, stretching and pulling feelings at pubic line, sore boobs, no appetite, small amount of creamy cm

5dpo - light headed, hot, nausea, sore boobs, cramping, no appetite, headache, thirsty, increased urination, small amount of creamy cm, emotional, waistband of jeans really uncomfortable on stomach

6dpo - metallic taste in mouth, very sore boobs, backache, headache, sharp pain on left-hand side (implantation?), pressure feeling, loads of clear cm, nausea, small BBT dip, problems sleeping, very hungry in night. BFN

7dpo - sore boobs, nausea, headache, loads of white cm, blocked nose, BBT back up, hunger, low energy, absolutely exhausted, pressure and cramping, spotty chin, lots of saliva in mouth. BFN

I'm INCREDIBLY tired and have backache. But I had a very stressful weekend so putting it all down to that.

Thank you, how many dpo are you.

Well, you never know! I've never had tiredness like this, I'm considering calling in sick to work tomorrow it's so bad (and I'm type one diabetic so have to consider that as well). I just wish I was in a position to fell my boss the cause of me feeling so shite.

@lookingforareolas Ooh!! When if af due?
