How long did you wait before POAS?

I'm two days late and going crazy.

But aware that if I POAS every time I want to I could spend a lot on sticks in the next however-long-it-takes TTC.

I have two tests upstairs and am considering wrapping a tenner round them to remind me that it's like peeing on money and if I wait and come on, I will have saved the cash.

How long did everyone else wait?

when we were trying i didn't wait. ttm never used to come until i did the negative test....think it took so long tc as i was so stressed about the whole thing.

I poas at cd10. 4 days before AF due. And it worked every time. So I admire your patience but please go poas!

2 days late and havent POAs yet!! Wish I had your patience Grin

I have a 32 day cycle. DS, I POAS day 29 as was NYE and wanted to know if I could drink. Got a BFN- dranks lots of champers, then got a BFP 3 days later (oops)

DC2- POAS day 27 as was completely exhausted and wanted to know as had personal training that day. Got a BFP.

If you're 2 days late and your cycle is regular, you should get a reliable result now, especially if you use first wee of the day

I waited as long as it took to open the wrapper and pee! Your will is remarkable! :)

Lol thanks ladies, everyone was making me feel full of willpower till newbielisa laid down a challenge Wink

Going to hold out until the weekend I think, if it's a BFP I'll be in happy tears useless at work all day.
