Trying not to test - HELP!!

[shadows]

Hi all, I've been lurking for a while now but thought I'd say Hi and beg for some support!!

AF is now one whole week late. I'm normally anywhere from 28-34 so I am trying not to get my hopes up. It's our first month ttc so deep down I know it'd be a real miracle.

I really want to test - but I also really want to wait until I'm at least 2 weeks late.

Help!

Hiya,. I know you want us to stop you testing but I say miracles do happen.

LOL thanks both of you!! I should have known I'd that sort of response with all the POAS addicts there are on here.

It's just that if I don't test - there's a chance. If I test and it's neg - there's no chance. Right now I'm dreaming of baby names, if I get a bfn I won't have this feeling for another month.

Isn't there anyone out there who's with me!?

So you don't know your dpo? well if you test it could be too early so dare I say it WAIT..........

 

[shadows]

Thankyou Baby Fever. You're right I don't know my exact dpo so it could be too early. Reading everyone's posts makes me realise I need to take much more notice of my body and what's happening in it!!

It took so much will power not to test this morning but I fought it and won.

Maybe tomorrow........

Anyway it seems like there are some lovely people on here so I'm glad I have joined x x x

Hi shadows, I understand not testing means you still have hope. Been there many times myself. So well done for resisting! I would test if I was a week late but if you don't actually know how many dpo you are then maybe wait it out a bit more. It is a good idea to take a note of your cycles every month, day 1 being the first day of your period (full flow).

Good luck & welcome to the forum! xxx

Thank you so much for your replies.

I have to admit I cracked this morning and got a BFN

I feel so sad. I know there are people here who have been trying for ages so I probably have no right to moan after only 1 month. I guess everyone thinks they may be in that small 'it only takes once' minority.

Going out tonight so hopefully that will take my mind off it and I can have a couple of drinks knowing I'm not doing a little bean any harm.

Don't b sorry for feeling sad babes. I think when TTC it's hard first month or 26th month in different ways. Hang in there I'm sure it will happen for us all when times right x x
