Everything You Wanted To Know About POAS...But Were Afraid To Ask

[Milty]

the directions say you MUST begin testing on Day 5 to get an accurate reading. today is day 6. Do I really need to wait until next cycle??

No you don't have to wait...some girls are still having AF at CD5

I know this is a poas thread, but can we do charts too? Still no temp drop and still bfn. Anyone get a drop when AF arrives rather than before? Mine has always been before up to now, normally cd27 it starts falling.
I am using ultra early test strips so I don´t think there is much chance of it turning pos after 15dpo.

Have to admit that I didn't realise about O pain being before O sometimes. Like Junebug I don't think I have really had O pain before although I did have some slight pains this month on the day I got my + but that could just have been wind

I've just got 'good' on my intercourse score this month (my free VIP runs out today ) but good is better than not a cat in hell's chance

I had success on a month that FF rated as good so FX for you!!

Aw thanks ovenbun

Nats I often get a temp drop after AF arrives. 2 cycles ago I got to 17dpo with bfn. I did some research and it seems there is a very small chance of getting a BFP after this (5% or so) but I was with you and accepted it would be unlikely.

Hi Nats,

Every month seems to be different for me but on the day when i have a substantial temp drop AF arrives.

 

[Natsby]

I´m more worried because I have day 3 bloods booked for the second Dec and I don´t know if this means AF will be late and I should change the date, (if I can.)
I´ll see what tomorrow brings.

 

[Wendyk07]

Well girls, this is day two of no poas. I am proud of myself that i havent caved in.

Withdrawal symptoms - Absolutely
Stared at the tests in the bathroom cabinet - Loads
Symptom spotted - A little
Pissed in a cup - Yip
POAS - NO

Am not testing until Friday and with my temps being so up and down this month i am not holding out much hope so i may even manage to refrain from the POAS until AF day.

Did you test this morning with FMU hun?

 

[Natsby]

Yes I tested, (don´t know if it was FMU?) it was an early ultra sensitive, and BFN. I am not at all hopeful it will change, but I´d like AF to be sort of on time if it is coming. Never mind I guess it iwll come when it comes.
Well done on not POAS!! impressive!

Wendy, I am so impressed!

Nats, can you post a pic of your test, then next time you POAS? IS you doc not set up where you call on CD1? This is how mine works.

 

[Butterfly67]

^^^WSS on both counts!

Another girl on here not too long ago didn't get her bfp until 18dpo, she thought the same as you, but then one morning, there it was clear as day. fx'd

 

[Jax41]

Right, I'm off out to lunch to buy my HPT, am determined to get at least one POAS out of this cycle even if it kills me!!!

 

[Milty]

Nats: maybe if you didn't implant until 12DPO...but even then I think it would be rare... I just did a search on FF for + after 15DPO

 

[Milty]

What do you guys think of this

 

[dachsundmom]

Milty, IDK if I see anything. What do you see?

 

[Milty]

nothing...I just rely on you guys to tell me whats there...

DH is POAS pusher..

 

[Wendyk07]

What do you guys think of this

I might see a faint line/shadow there but am unsure and dont see colour. This screen at work is useless. will have a better look when i get home.

 

[dachsundmom]

If I see anything, it's w/o color...

 

[Natsby]

I could post a picture...but only if you are really impressed by white, oh so white!
My Drs is stupid, you have to book the bloods and then pray AF fits in with that. If I try and change them there is a good chance they won´t have a space. Dumb system!
