Trying to Get Pregnant

Could you hold out til 20 DPO? Have you?

I love the FF chart gallery. Especially late at night when I am obsessing.

Tonight, it gave me two charts "like mine" where there is no indicated HPT until 20 DPO!

I would wait until day 14...but 20! Can you last that long?

  • No. I can't even wait till 10 dpo. I have no will power.

  • I've never dreamed of even having an lp that long.haha .. I'm lucky to make it to 12 & from what I've seen most girls test between 10 & 14 dpo. 20 is nuts!

    lol. If my lp was 20 days long every cycle I would go insane waiting.

  • I always started testing around 8dpo...just in case.  I think I tested at 6 or 7dpo once, because it was DH's bday, and I wanted to give him a bfp.  Not even close!

    I have tested that early a few times because there is always a birthday, easter, valentines day, etc close to it so I want to suprise him with it!

    Not so far.

  • I just finished up my first chart.... but i only went 9DPO.  So for now my thought is Nope! lol

  • This is only my second cycle charting and last cycle I didn't have to wait until 20DPO for AF showed up.  Hey, that means I already have a HPT for this month, right?  I hope I can hold out that long, or however long FF suggests, I just can't stand wasting any more money on HPT's.  HTH

    That was what it was like with me!  There was always something.  And then I found out I had a bad batch of tests (internet cheapies that didn't come up positive for a week after my FRER's and $store tests did), so I wouldn't have known if they were positive, anyway!

    i would never try to wait that long. 18 dpo should be long enough and at that point, high temps would make me wonder and want to test to find out.

  • I have never bought the interenet cheapies, I may have to try those since I spend at least $20 a cycle on HPT's..

    and there is always something, next is his birthday and then father's day. oh boy.

  • I'll be waiting until my period is at least a couple of days late so I guess 16 or 17 DPO...so that's not that far off 20.

    It's just seems like a waste of money to buy pregnancy tests when getting AF or not is a pretty good indicator. But then I have a very regular cycle.?

  • My LP is averaging about 14 days, so that is long enough for me to wait to test.  I would also have to see what my temps are doing to determine whether or not I should test.  But in short, no...I don't think I could wait 20 days.
