Trying to not test early.

Sorry ladies ... airing desperation

2WW is taking its toll ( as lots of you know only too well).

I have all my usual signs for time of the morning the month but only think different is I'm so thirsty .... drinking lots of water which is different.

I am only 7dp3dt and even my husband is tempted saying... just do it. But deep down I know that we have to wait two weeks for a reason.

Keeping busy is hard as trying not to be on the go all the time but keep mind occupied.

Hope you are all doing ok. And again... as ever thank you all for your continuing support. X

I'm the worse person for testing early. I tested on day 7 and got a negative but then a very faint positive on day 8. Then I used a different brand and got negatives each time till I went to a different brand. As my OH says it's a waste of time and I should try to stick it out. Best wishes x

I know it's hard but try to stick to it and not test till OTD - that way you don't get false hope or disappointment. Sounds like your doing everything you can, I know it's hard to keep your mind occupied x

Hang in there not to long to wait now xx

It's so so hard. I have the worst AF pains. And constantly checking at the toilet for AF. I know it sounds abit dramatic but I genuinely feel the adrenaline pumping through me when I go to the loo. Im so scared. Terrified that it's all just gonna be over :(

Thinking of you.... I'm not ready to see a negative test so I'm holding out. I have a feeling AF will show first.

Good luck whatever you decide :) xxx

Hi, it's so hard isn't it! It seems to get harder as the days pass! I'm really trying to hold out, my OTD is Sunday, I want it to be here so I can test but at the same time I'm scared to do it . I feel sick at the though of doing the test. When is your OTD? X

It's strange as I have been told to test 12 dp5dt and some people are told to test 14 dp5dt. I have stocked up on tests and will do one every few days if af doesn't arrive x good luck and hope time passes quickly for you! We are literally wishing our lives away!
