to pee or not to pee

ShellShockedMama · November 2009

I is askeered and my hopes are up (I hate that). I have all indications that is af is a comin'. Boobs not as sore, slight cramps and back ache, the whole shebang---except for my temp this morning. So now I don't know what to do with myself. I know that pretty charts mean nothing. Tell me to hold off and wait until AF hasn't appeared by the end of the week b/c I'm this close to buying a test and peeing at a rest stop on my drive home.

I always wait for AF not to show. I don't like to be disappointed.

we are at the same DPO ~ Hold off, I"ll hold off ~ and lets pick a good day & test together??

Yeah, I'd wait. But I'm probably just cynical over a "no" this month.

Allison, I'm afraid I'm going to be a POAS pusher.... how many DPO are you now? If you're going to be disappointed, well, then maybe it's not such a good idea just yet. If I lived closer, I'd just give you one. For some odd reason, every time I go to Target, I seem to be drawn to that aisle and I pick up either one or both -- HPT or OPK -- boxes. I have quite the surplus stocked up (at home, though...hotel, just one box of OPKs).

ooh that's a perfect idea. I usually am the one who says wait until af shows but usually I have a temp drop by now. I shall stay strong!

what would be a good day~

I have phantom symptoms galore ~~ sore lower back, a bit of spotting 8 DPO, general 'rumbling'

I think your chart looks great. I'd poas Tues if your temp is still up. Hang in there!

I'm only 10 dpo right now with a 10-11 day LP. Its probably way too early to test anyway and I do get bummed with bfns. I hate this process.

your chart looks geat!!!!! i'm a poas pusher but if you'd like we can poas together on wed. dec. 2nd. i'll only be 10dpo but i want to poas b/c it's our anniversary so i know the chances are slim that i'd get a +hpt but if i'm not spotting by then i'm going to do it. Stick out tongue

btw, i had a huge temp increase today. of course i woke up around 3ish but willed myself back to sleep till my normal temping time. i couldn't believe my temp was so high! i hope i'm not getting sick? i never ever have temps that high.

we can all poas together on wed.Dec 2nd if you want?? does that day work?

Your chart sure is pretty! Personally, I think I'd wait a few days though. I am one who does not want to be disappointed, especially if there's any chance it's just too early. I would POAS the day after AF would typically appear. Good luck!

Def try to hold out a few more days- it's so disappointing and frustrating to get BFN and not had AF either. I think the 3 of you should test like mentioned before, on Dec 3rd and then hopefully there will be all 3 of you moving over SAL!! Sending you all BFP vibes!!

This. I already butt in on your post above, but after my last cycle of BFN,BFN, BFN, AF, I wish I had waited. It was too depressing. And the longer you wait, the more likely it will be a BFP! I still say the 5th is lookin' good for a testing day Wink Sending you all lots of BFP dust!!!
