Trying to Get Pregnant

Do you do the 2ww?

Or do you start testing as soon as you can? This is our second cycle and the first one I was testing like crazy with all BFNs :(

I don't know if I can do the whole 2ww without going crazy thinking that every pain, twinge or twang is a possible LO

 

TIA(I'm sure this has been asked a bunch of times. Sorry if it is repetitive)

Re: Do you do the 2ww?

  • I don't want the 'chemical pregnancy' scare (positive during early testing but really BFN and AF later) so I try not to test, my temps drop when AF is due so in the event that doesn't happen one day, I will test that morning after high temp, 14 DPO
    Me: 32, DH: 34.
    Trying since Jan 2011. Unexplained IF.
    2 IUIs = BFN.
    1 IVF (Dec 2013) = BFN.
    FET, 2 frosties (June 13, 2014)

    14dp5dt-June 27 -BFP, beta 2061. 2nd beta >5000, 3rd beta >5000, 2 sacs 06/30.
    Twin Girls - 02/11/15 - at 37 weeks (no NICU, home with me at 3 days).

    Hmm, it's not really a BFN. It's being pregnant but something goes wrong early on. I also don't know why you have chemical pregnancy in quotes either..

  • The earliest I'll test is 10 dpo.  Some months I'm hesitant to test and can wait it out, some months I'm impatient and start at 10.

  • I'll do 10 dpo, but that's as early as I'll go.  Considering how short my cycles have been lately, that's right around AF time anyway.  Try to hold out--the POAS disease is contagious!
  • Last cycle I tested in the morning and later that day AF came.  This cycle I tested today, which I was trying not to, but couldn't help it.  As of today, I have decided to wait at least until I reach FF estimated AF date.  Don't like the BFN, even if it is too early..  (should have listened to DH when he said to wait until Sunday, why is he always right?  lol )

    Everything siple said. I'm a little confused vpine...

    ETA: I think you need to look up Chemical Pregnancy. You can be as far along as 6 weeks & have a CP.

    ^^This.  Your comment is actually quite offensive to women who have had early losses.

    ETA:  Edited for clarity.

  • I wait as long as I can... but I inevitably wind up testing early.  Usually it'll be a day or two before I'm expecting AF.  Sometimes I get myself all excited with phantom symptoms and wind up testing way too early, though.  I have no will power.
  • I tested already (it was way too early though, so I'm testing again on the 13th if AF doesn't show). Last cycle, I waited it out.
