Testing on April 15th?

[By the Grace]

I bought the OPK to kind of "confirm" what my body was telling me about when I ovulate. Instead it has made me more confused than ever! lol I'm just glad I'm not the only one who had trouble with them!

I'm wishing lots of for all of you ladies....and a little extra for the girls with long cycles!!

And today I would like to add that I spoke too soon!
I just got my positive OPK today (which is fine cuz we didn't stop BDing). I think my poor DH is getting tired, but I explained the OPK and he's fine with trying again. I didn't even mention to him that I'll probably want to try one more time tomorrow. That might overload his brain.

I will be testing on or around the 14th can I join.

Deffo not testing early, had 3 chemicals, I have now learned that lesson

Good luck everyone xxxx

my poor hubby has been quote "pumped dry" this mths bless him, he's been a lil trooper, did spit his dummy out one night and said he was too sleepy. Needless to say I soon changed his mind

I really need to keep my mind occupied for the next 9 days!!

What are all you ladies doing to try to stay sane during the 2ww??

My last period started on 16 March 2011 and I ovulated on Friday, 1 April. I have recently had the implant removed and have no idea how long my cycles are after many years on one form of birth control or another. When should I test?? I was think around 15 April - does this sound about right?

I know I will be desperate to test early but I agree that it would be so much more disappointed to get myself hyped up to do a test and get BFN rather than finding out AF had arrived.

im way too early for anything, but lord my booblies hurt tonight

I think I finally got my positive OPK last night/this morning. Of course, I've been so confused by them that now I'm worried it isn't really my positive but I hope! Then I can move onward to the 2ww

I would think you could test on the 15th but if you don't know your cycles that may be too soon... I have a 35-37 day cycle and I started on the 10th and ovulated on the 27th so I'm not testing until the 15th....

I am trying desperately NOT to symptom spot especially since I'm 7dpo so up until today there is NO way that anything I've felt could have been something. So that means my mind is on double time down!!

I'm working and looking forward to my niece's first birthday party--which is the 16th so I'm trying to focus on that... not doing too well though.

 

[Ladybug139]

I'm in the same boat as you guys! 2 weeks to go, and I've got to try to stick it out!!!!!! I'm feeling good this month let's stick together for the longest two weeks, again! .. For me at least.

 

[raelynn]

Isn't it funny how 2 weeks seemed so short before ttc and now it is the longest 2 weeks ever? Wishing everyone lots of baby dust and patience for the wait

So how is everyone doing? Is anyone symptom spotting or peeing on sticks?

I've discovered that when I ovulate from the left, my nipples get sore, but when I ovulate from the right, they don't. I posted that in a thread, and apparently I'm the only freak this happens to.

I'm just glad I've been keeping such detailed notes about my cycles. Otherwise I'd be thinking it was a "symptom."

I'm keeping busy by getting psyched for my vacation next month! I like planning things, so I'm going to make our plan for each day. Oh, and I've already made my plan of attack for my next cycle.

That helped me to not get my hopes up too much last cycle, when I was looking forward to what I would do different next cycle.

I can totally relate to u about ov from left to right I used to just think it was a bad month and good month however u have just hit it on the head so u are not the only freak I'll join u on that one

Not going to lie, I POAS this morning (10dpo) and got a but since I have a long cycle and shouldn't have tested until 19dpo (on the 15th) I'm still keeping faith that it could have been too early. I am not symptom spotting at all though. Drove me insane the last 2 months so I decided to take a break from it this month.

 

[By the Grace]

DancingDiva, you have made me feel less crazy, so thank you. lol

Hodge-Podge, that was too early! You don't have any more sticks (hpt's) in the house, do you? If so, maybe you should lock them up so that they don't tempt you!

 

[Hodge-Podge]

Haha yes. I have 3 more to be exact! But I won't test again until the 15th. That negative was all I needed to hold me over.

 

[NYColoradoan]

I should be waiting until the 17th to poas (that would officially be one day late for AF on my longest cycle) but I'm probably going to test on the 12th because that's 5 days before my missed period and that's what FRER says! So, may I join you all too?
I'm trying really hard not to symptom spot because I did that my first cycle, was convinced I was getting my BFP and completely devastated when AF arrived. But, I have some cramping and nausea already. Who knows, though?

 

[lintu]

I'v been away all week sorry not had time to read through.

My DH & me have put my test date back I must enjoy the torture!!

anyway by that point I will deffo be late and were having a b'day bbq for me on the 16th so im going to test with FMU that morning if no

This next week is going to be hellish, hope everyones ok
