Step away from the HPT !!anyone else not stand the dissapointment................

[mummyof2bunnies]

I am ttc #3 and this is my 6th cycle (i have 2 dds of 7&9 and had 2 MC).....

for the first 2 cycles i was hpt happy and testing at rediculous times (eg 1dpo) i was feeling quite obsessive and spending a fortune.............................

evertime i got a blank test i would get depressed and rip the thing apart

just the horrible feeling of seeing the blank window makes me sick to my stomach..i know it sounds silly but for my own sanity i have decided that i wont test at all and if i am pg it will show one way or another .......................just wondering if anyone else feels the same or has decided to stay away from hpt misery?

i agree, as i have ridiculously long cycles due to pcos so you can imagine how many tests i can get through on an 88 day cycle! I really wanna wait this time. but Fertility Friend is telling me to test on 22nd march (and who am i to argue) It's gonna be hard enough to wait till then anyway! we'll see shall we

I have been testing since day 10, now on day 16 and nothing. Tested twice yesterday and have already tested this morning (though I have mostly been sticking to the after 3pm rule!) and nothing.

I don't know what to do. I have a 24 day cycle.

Wow 88day cycle thats mammoth!...now you do have an excuse for giving in and testing!

That is quite short beaniesteve do you know when you ovulate? do you have a long enough phase after ov for implantation?

Im on cd36 and my cycles have been 33-35 days. i feel af pains so i think it will rear it ugly head later today....but i would rather af just came on than see a blank hpt window!

I agree mummyof2bunnies.

I also have two dds and have had two miscarriages, so similar situation!

HPTs stress me out so much, I get really dizzy and feel so sick before and after doing one.

This time I waited until I was five weeks pregnant before taking the test (am now 10weeks).

I saw my doctor and mentioned that Last month I ovulated on the 16th and got my period on the 24th and she seemed to thik it was nothing to worry about. Ho hum.

that is a short cycle beaniestevie.

I am taking vitamin B6 to try and level out my hormones. I thought about Agnus Castus but don't want to take it without the doctor's say-so.

I am 37 by the way, trying for my first. I have been pregnant before when I was 26.

My periods used to be about 26/27 days but since I came off teh mini-pill in Oct they have been 24 days.

Sorry mummyof2bunnies I hijacked your thread. FWIW I have used a fair amount of tests this month. I guess we all need to just try to relax.

Belgo i get the same so sick and dizzy..i just cant put myself though it anymore...Congrats on your pg hope you have a happy healthy next few months.

Beaniesteve they recon implantation takes around 6-7 days i think, so you just make that timeline if you ov on day 16.

thanks good luck for you are well.

I think implantation takes 6-10 days after ovulation?

not at all beaniesteve, get it all out of you system god knows i needed to!

im 30 and had my first when i was 21 which i feel like i missed out on her iykwim because i was too young to appreciate what being a mom was..i still wanted to go out with my mates and go to college and i dont really remember much of her being a baby. Me and her dad are still together and we have another dd but we both feel we have much more patience and are financially set now we want to add to our family.

Thx belgo.x

Lol hanaflower i know thats why i stay away from the other threads coz everyone wants you to test! I am with you on the nerves of steel you go girl!
