I told myself I wasn't going to do it this month. Ive been away for a week so haven't even thought about POAS, but just got home yesterday and started thinking.

I did an internet cheapie and theres like a pink dot and so I did my last tesco hpt which is neg.

Please help me not to test again, it gets me too messed up!!

Thanks!

test will be negative even if you are preggers. go to poundland if there is one near you as you get 3 strips for a pound so therefore you can afford to waste some.

YouCantTeuchThis · 05/04/2008 11:55

Hullo Disenchanted...wondered where you'd been!

Okay, I too have decided not to indulge my POAS obsession this month so I need you tobe strong for me!!

We know that early testing is the route to madness, and yet we torture ourselves

You are a strong, intelligent woman! You can do this!!

Anyway, get over to the PPP, CCC, whatever thread...NJ is heading to the shops for chocolate so get your order in!!

Disenchanted · 05/04/2008 11:57

PMSL teuch, I know you are right.

I can do this!!

I shall join yopu on the thread later this evening!

fruitl0ops2muchchoc · 05/04/2008 14:53

Disenchanted · 05/04/2008 17:35

i can completely get what you are going through. i drove myself half mad doing too many tests. all -ve of course. so i promise myself i am not going to do it this cycle (2nd cycle ttc).

fruitl0ops2muchchoc · 05/04/2008 20:24

Sorry, here's my profile page now . Was this the dot you got?

YouCantTeuchThis · 05/04/2008 21:04

My name is Teuch and I am a POAS-aholic.
It has been 9 days since my last hit.
It was a biggy...I peed on ALL the sticks in the house...including OPK, minutes before period arrived!!

I resolve not to pee on any sticks before...erm...

Okay, let's take it a day at a time!

OracleInaCoracle · 05/04/2008 21:07

dont test, join us on the step away from the first response thread, we shall discourage you from testing!

YouCantTeuchThis · 05/04/2008 22:43

May the force be with you...and me when the urge takes me!!

I'll pop over when I start to feel my resolve dissolve...

OracleInaCoracle · 06/04/2008 09:18

lol, i warn you though, im very strict!

Disenchanted · 06/04/2008 10:05

Hiya,

fruitloop it was similar yes, not as big though.

Im not buying those tests anymore they always seem to have a line, DH has seen them too.

Im on CD 24/28 today.

Usually I would be 10DPO but have no idea when (or if) I ovulated this month, plus we only BDd twice so I'm not hopeful. Whilst on holiday I didn't even think about it but since I've gotten home Ive fallen into bad habits again.

Ive only got 2 internet cheapies left so my plan is to bin them and wait till friday to buya tesco one if AF hasn't come by then (due thuursday)

OP posts:
OracleInaCoracle · 06/04/2008 10:17

that sounds like a great plan disenchanted!

luckyt · 06/04/2008 10:35

Hi All,

I am due Thursday too but so far have tested on 3dpo, 8dpo and this morning!! all BFN strangely enough!!

DH getting a bit annoyed about the amount of money I am spending!!

Have two more digital tests and two cheapy tesco's. Determined not to test until at LEAST Thursday!! - yeah right!! will probably be doing it again at 2.00pm.

Fairy Dust for all!!

Disenchanted · 06/04/2008 10:49

Hi luckyt,

good luck for thursday

chubbymummy · 06/04/2008 15:43

Good to know it's not just me then! I tested twice yesterday, again this morning and I'm desperatly fighting the urge to test again now!!!!!!!!!!! Aaaaaagggghhhhhh!!!!!

OracleInaCoracle · 06/04/2008 21:09

The percentages of those who get their BFPs on set dpo are as follows:
10dpo=35%
11dpo=51%
12dpo=62%
13dpo=68%
14dpo=74%
15dpo=80%
16dpo=88%
17dpo=92%
and there are some who have not got their BFP until 21dpo

Disenchanted · 06/04/2008 21:16

Oooh, Im not sure what DPO I am this cycle though.

Im CD 24 today should I wait till say 30 you think?

OP posts:
OracleInaCoracle · 06/04/2008 21:23

you are probably 10DPO then.

Disenchanted · 06/04/2008 21:53

Hmmm Im not sure, I was doing OPKs 2ce a day and didn't get a + this month.

We will just have to see on Saturday

OP posts:
OracleInaCoracle · 06/04/2008 21:57

tbh disenchanted, i hate opks, two of my pgs i didnt get a bfp

OracleInaCoracle · 06/04/2008 21:57

fingers crossed anyway

Disenchanted · 06/04/2008 22:10

You didn't get BFPs on the OPKs but you did OV and got pregnant?

Thats hopeful
