Trying to Get Pregnant

waiting to take HPT, scared of BFN :(

This was the first month that DH and I TTC. I should be able to take a HPT in 3-5 days. I am getting really excited and I want to test now! I am scared to see a BFN or AF. My hopes are so high! I am scared of disappointment. :(

Re: waiting to take HPT, scared of BFN :(

  • Wait for your period to show (or not show) then if a BFN would bother you so much.

  • I so hope you get that BFP!!!! FX for you!!!

    However on the off chance you don't, there is always next time. Some of us take awhile and some don't. Try to be patient, easier said then done I know. The disappointment never gets easier, but try to enjoy the process!!!

    Totally agree.  If you're not charting and don't know when you ovulated, the recommendation is to wait until the day after your longest cycle.

    TTC #1 since August 2011

    My Blog

    September 2012: Start IF testing

    DH (32): SA is ok, slightly low morph, normal SCSA  Me (32): Slightly low progesterone, hostile CM, carrier for CF, Moderately high NKC, High TNFa, heterozyogous mutated Factor XIII, and +APA

    October 2012-May 2014: 4 failed IUIs, 3 failed IVFs, and 1 failed FETw/donor embryos

    November 2014: IVF w/ICSI #4 Agonist/Antagonist with EPP and Prednisone, Baby Aspirin, Lovenox, and IVIG for immune issues.  Converted to freeze all due to lining issues.  2 blasts frozen on day 6!

    January 2015: FET #2 Cancelled due to lining issues

    April 2015: FET #2.1


    PAIF/SAIF Welcome!

  • I felt like that when I started my TTC journey. I personally find it better to wait until my  "missed" period date and possibly having AF show before I even test rather then seeing that BFN.

    Also don't be scared be realistic. The chances of getting a bfp your first couple of months trying is slim.  If you let your emotions take over your mind you will for sure go nuts over it. HTH! GL!

  • thanks! ill try to keep myself distracted and not stress!

  • Yeah, BFNs suck. Just wait for AF.
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • I would suggest charting even though you just started. I have been TTC for almost three months and my anxiety has gone down after I started charting. It gives you and DH more control. I would recommend using the Fertility Friend site.

    GL!
