In other news - I think I need to POAS

AF is officially a week late. But since I'm not on BC or charting I'm not 100%. I've been very regular since my 1st official period - always around the 10th. So I've been waiting...and nothing. I'm actually scared to POAS. I could've this morning...I have a leftover digital test. We're not ready for #2! And we've only had sex like 4 times this year! Seriously. I don't even think DH *TMI* climaxed the last time. And he had a condom on which we rarely use. So I feel the odd's of being KTFU are super slim. I haven't been driving myself crazy about this untill now that I'm letting it all out here. I think I'm freaking....just a little...

On the other side - I have been super stressed about layoffs at my job and not knowing if I'm safe. I have hardly been sleeping due to back pain. My diet is all outta whack. So maybe it's just this...right?

I know you're all pee pushers. And IF that b!tch doesn't arrive by tomorrow morning I'll POAS then. Oh...I also have an OB appt tomorrow.

    Peeing won't change the outcome.  Either you are... and you should know... or you aren't... and you can wait for AF.  This happened to me last month, so I know how you feel.

    I know I keep telling myself that! It's better to know either way right? Why have I become so afraid of those pee sticks?!?!

    Holy crap.  In about a week, I'll be POASing too.  DH and I got a little crazy Saturday night and didn't use protection (thinking that we were relatively "safe").  Afterwards, I look at the calendar and realize that I *should* ovulate the following Saturday...but what if it happens sooner? 

    Let's pray for each other, shall we?  'Cause I'm certainly not ready for #2!

    I peed at the bathroom in target because i was so freaked out.  I've never been so happy for a bfn.  And af came later that day.  We'll be here to support you either way.  If you are a week late you prob don't need fmu.

    Thanks brooke. I'd really like a bfn too. Guess I'll just do it when I get home tonight. Peace of mind.

    It is crazy to think about!  I think (hope, pray) that we are OK.  I mean, things will be all good if I am pg but that isn't the PLAN!  I want to enjoy Emmy for another year or so before I get pg again.

     Gaby...I will keep you in my thoughts!  I think you are just late because of stress.  Plus, your DH was wearing a condom.  That's a dirty little joke of the condom company if you still got pg!

    i agree w/ brooke, if you are a week late you don't need FMU... you only really need that before AF is due.

    hopefully its just stress and to be honest going by the same date of the month isn't the best method since the months have different lengths... maybe its because of that?? 

    GL! let us know how your POAS turns out tonight.

    I thought of this too and did this math and it still makes me late. I know I don't have to FMU but I just figured I'd wait till then.

     

    Thanks ladies.
