I'm Pathetic!

Okay. Total confession that you can totally judge me on because it was foolish and irrational:

9 DPO on a NTNP cycle. No AF yet, longer cycle than last month.

Totally took a pregnancy test at 8:30 pm last night because my brain could not get off the thought of being pregnant and I had some self-control issues. Couldn't even wait for FMU lol. 

BFN (of course). Learned my lesson; won't be doing that again :P

Just thought I'd share my little moment of crazy with y'all :P 

ETA: In my defence, FF told me my chances were high haha! Total "newb got excited" moment!

    No judging here, I start pulling out tests if AF is one day late and we ARE protecting. I hope it happens soon for you :). Ditching protection definitely makes you symptom spot and want to test like crazy...

    Yup. Did it this morning same as you OP! 9dpo technically not trying this month, but thought why not? Maybe I could be the lucky one who gets pregnant the first month off birth control without really trying

    Hahaha no- bfn

    I don't keep tests in the house for this reason. If I have them... I use them!

    Hahaha, same here. When AF is one day late (and still on BC) and I was freaking out I also used a test sometimes. And like my body knew what I was doing, AF was there within a few hours.

    I'll one-up you OP (and not in a good way).  2nd month TTC I fell for all the "I think I'm pregnant" garbage and started eating like I was eating for two.  I put on 4 lbs in like 3 days, I kid you not.  I've taken several steps WAYYYYY back from TTC/temping/charting/etc. and am feeling much more like myself again (and I lost the weight immediately).  If it happens for us, great, if not, that's OK too.  I never thought I would get like that but suddenly immersing yourself in all this knowledge can make us do crazy things.  For me, it worked to step away.  As you move on, I'm sure you'll adjust your behavior when it comes time to test.  GL.

    I did that last month. AF was 10 days late. DH and I weren't trying but we did have sex while I was ovulating and I'm never late. I took 3 tests, of course all negative and then started a few days later.

    You're not alone.

    Not alone! We just started ttc this month and I already want to test tomorrow because if I am on a regular cycle af should be here! Already took a test to make sure before going out with friends to make sure if I had to limit what I ate/drank! So you're not alone! I think sometimes our minds get the best of us!

    Edit: And of course I get a defective test this morning. Time to buy more!
