Forget it! Not testing again until I miss AF
Too frustrating to test and get BFN's
I used 3 different websites to calcluate my fertile days and those same ones said I could test today. I have tested 3 times for "fun" over the last 2 weeks but this morning was disappointing. But then my friend told me that you only have a 53% chance of an accurate reading when its 4 days prior to AF and this is 5 days.
Just kind of venting...

I right there with you...as much as I want to test...I remember too clearly my disappointments last month when I tested and tested and tested.

Re: Forget it! Not testing again until I miss AF
Hang in there...I took a test when we returned from our trip and got a BFN. I was so disappointed but DH kept saying that he knew I was pregnant. I stopped testing and waited two days after I missed my period. When I took that test I got my BFP.
I think you are smart to stop testing and wait until you miss AF.

Re: Forget it! Not testing again until I miss AF
Good point Ang
DH has been telling me he thinks I am and as much as I sometimes hate to admit it, he is usually right. I am more emotional than usual. But I dont feel anything at all, but I dont feel any AF symptoms either.
I just feel like my womanly parts arent working properly. I am such a perfectionist with certain things, this is frustrating.

yes, please stop! I've been doing the same to myself, DH is getting frustrated with me, and my one good friend that knows we are TTC keeps yelling at me for testing.

I never even told my husband I was testing unless I got a positive

I'm bad at hiding things, I wear my heart on my sleeve and DH just "knows"

Many many to you Eva Luna!
DH and I like to do all these types of things together. So he is standing right there... yes even while I am peeing on the thing.

Re: Forget it! Not testing again until I miss AF
It is VERY hard not to become a peeonastick-aholic.
God only knows what I've spent on BFNs over the past year. No more testing for me until I am late. It is hard though.

Re: Forget it! Not testing again until I miss AF
I was addicted to testing. Save yourself the heartache and the money by waiting as long as you can to test.
The month we got our BFP I was so busy that I really didn't even think about it (and I REALLY did not think that we were pregnant) - then I had a huge zit on my face and decided to test at 11:30 pm - and it was positive!
Lots of baby dust for all of you girls!!!

Re: Forget it! Not testing again until I miss AF
I got all BFNs until after I missed AF, then a BFP, so I would just tell folks to wait. Too much heartache otherwise, and many times for no reason.
