Anyone get the urge and test early?

I'm so tempted to as I had period pains towards the end of last week (AF due Wednesday) and now they have gone and are replaced with unbelievably sore boobs, I feel generally 'weird' and I am completely exhausted.

The things that will stop me testing till Thursday are:

  • Tests are so expensive, I don't want to waste one when I know they are less accurate 2 days before AF than if I tested on Wednesday or Thursday.
  • I don't want to be dissapointed to find out that it's negative
  • Knowing my luck AF will be here first thing Wednesday morning like last month. :cry:

I just want to fast forward 48 hours and then I'll have more of an idea if my symptoms are just a sign of AF or not.

Does or has anyone tested early? I know I will end up waiting till Thursday but I'm just nosy:blush:
 
ME!!!!!!!!!!! I know exactly how you feel. I had a blighted ovum back in March and not really tried again (not through timing) until the last 3 months. I am very tempted but like you, feel like I'm jinxing everything, rushing, the disappointment , I don't have the symptoms I had last time although my boobs have been sore since I had my last "weird" period! Nothing before, no period pains, no signs at all. Had a few headaches and dizziness before my period (which as I said on another thread was 28 days ..... never before has this happened!), but no pains, in fact I was in shock, did not expect it. In fact I was in so much shock I didn't feel disappointed I had come on!!!

Hang on Snowball, chatter away to us all, keep your mind of it, Thurs will be here before you know it :)
 
I had the incredible urge to poas at 4DPO! :dohh: but, no, I didn't test. I am waiting until Sunday-ish to see what happens with my temps...

Last time I poas early and say the bfn, all I could think about (other than, damn, I wanted to see 2 lines!) was - damn, there's $1.13 wasted! :dohh: (Damn accountant's brain..)
 
Hehehe

Arnt we all just mad!!!!!! I used up 5 (yeah 5:blush:) tests last week at 7-9 DPO - needless to say all BFN's!!!!

Have had like snowball cramping that has now ceased and sore BB's.

Think will test again tomorrow if AF has not arrived.

Good luck with your test!:hugs:
 
I always want to test early but tell myself...wait! because they are expensive! But I always wonder...hmmmm...:muaha: I am currently in the 2ww (AF due on X-mas of all days!). So, we will see how that goes. I know I can wait a week! maybe...hehe :blush:
 
im all out of my cheapie tests so i guess ill have to be patient this month,which will be hard for me!!!i usually get through 4 or 5 a month haha im such a loser!

Good luck
xx
 
i'm way to scared to test!! i always wait for af not to come, but then she always comes so i never get a chance to test :wacko::wacko: i did one once when i thought i pregnant a few months ago and af was a couple of days late. the test was a bfn and af came about 2 hours later grrrrr (i'm so bad, i want all of you to test as i want to know who gets their bfp but i won't even test myself:laugh2:)
 
I started to test on 8 DPO :headspin: with 2 types of internet cheapies. All BFN :wacko:.
 
I am a victim of early POAS too! I got a BFN at 7DPO. AF was due yesterday and still has not showed. Now I am too scared to test, so i will wait a few more days to see what happens. I have a feeling that AF is going to come, but will come late.......wait and see.

My AF is due Xmas day too, what a nightmare - I'll be going to the loo every 5 mins to check :-(

I could never test early, I'd rather wait for AF to be late. However, bet you in a few months time, if I'm still TTCing, I'll be testing early!
