My name is Peach Blossom and I'm a poas-aholic

[Peach Blossom]

Last month I almost had to remortgage the house to keep me in supply of hpts. AF finished on Weds and DH and I are trying smep this cycle. Yesterday I did my first opk this cycle. Am going to try and limit it to 1 a day!

Any other addicts out there needing support to try and stay away from those sticks?! I'm here for you.

Lol. This is why I havent started using OPKs because I tend to get obsessive about stuff & I know that once I start, I wont be able to stop!

 

[carrieanne]

Hiiiii, Peach Blossom!

to make it cheaper, you should buy them over the internet in bundles! You'd save a ton!

I'm a poas-a-holic too. I'm back to WTT...but if there is even a trace of hope of an "oops," I go to town! I'd pee on jsut about anything if it told me I was knocked up hahaha

Oh man!! I have gone through so many OPKs it's unreal!! During my 3rd or 4th cycle I was only using one a day and we pretty much missed my O, so now this cycle I am using them twice a day since day 14 --it's day 23 now and still no O!! That's A LOT of OPKs!!

erm I have peed on 2 OPK strips already and plan on peeing on another shortly. Not normally so anal about it but I have been waiting 25 days for this stupid surge and I'll be darned if I'm gonna miss it!!!

Hahaha - Hi I'm Seity, and I'm a POAS addict. :wave:
I bought a bunch of ic opk's and hpt's just so I could poas without feeling guilty about the cost.

I even started using them yesterday instead of waiting till tomorrow like it said too. I had a faint line yesterday and today it was much darker. Lighter than the control but not by much which surprised me as I don't expect a + OPK till Tuesday or Wednesday.

Last month I only used 2 hpt but this month I bought 6 that and I'm trying to wait till Monday to start but it's really really hard! My husband thinks I'm crazy because I just cant wait till i miss my period. Every month is gets worse!

 

[Peach Blossom]

Its been 4 days since I started my opks for this cycle and so far I've not become obessessed about poas... have stuck to one a day!! All -ve so far, but I don't normally ov til CD 24 or there abouts...

Wow that really is a lot of opks!! Lets hoope you're not broke before you have to buy any hpts!!

Thank god for online cheapies!!

 

[Peach Blossom]

Tell me about it!! I can get 10 online for the price of 4 in the local chemist!!

 

[Peach Blossom]

um.... I did 2 today... I'm so weak!

I've been doing the opks at about 8pm each day, but I had pain that felt like ov pain last night and lots of ewcm this morning and all day. My DH was coming to meet me for lunch so I asked him to bring one of my tests just in case.... It was darker this afternoon than it was yesterday evening or this evening... Still negative though.... Could I have missed the LH surge testing so late in the day? All other signs are pointing to ovulation.... Hmmmm....
