Hpt Testing
Posted: 02-14-06 23:47pm

For those ttc, do you wait until af is late before you test?

I have been but i've crossed over into the land of obsessed with getting pregnant so this time I might test early. I know it's not healthy to be this into it but I want this so bad! My af is due the 23rd but I might test on the 21st. I just feel like this is it. I feel different this time.

Anyone else testing soon?

Oh, and i'll never be so obsessed that i'll start charting things and taking my temp every day and whatnot. I just have a lot of sex and hope things have happened.

Good luck to everyone ttc!

I just took a test today it was negative. Af is still not here though, but my period was irregular last month it came to early, so I had no idea when I ovulated or when to expect af, I am still new at this, we just started ttc. I am kinda disappointed because I thought it would be the best valentines gift for my hubby. But I still have plenty of time to try. I just hope af gets here so I can try for the next round. Good luck!! Lots of baby dust 2 u!!

Well, I think I do but who knows.

For the past 4 days or so i've had these twinges in my lower abdomen on the right side. Today it took over both sides and the middle. It's not cramps, more of an ache. Also, i've been pretty gassy (but only at night?) and I haven't changed my diet at all so I don't think it's anything i've eaten. A bit of constipation, as well. Oh, and slight dizzy spells a few times a day. They last for no more than a minute and I don't know what that's all about. I've been a little fatigued but I haven't been sleeping well either (crazy vivid dreams!). I think that's about it. I could just be thinking about it too much and blowing things out of proportion. I tend to get my hopes up every month after ovulation. I really hope this is it! I'm getting so frustrated.



Next week there will probably be a sheepish post from me about my period coming but I like to think positively!

Baby dust to all of you. Maybe if you stop trying and not concentrating on it so much (i know, it is easier said than done) things will happen. That was what happened to me.
Good luck!
More baby dust to yo all!

Much easier said than done. If i'd never gotten pregnant in the first place I wouldn't be so obsessed with having a baby. But after the miscarriage I just feel so ripped off and I wanted that baby so bad. I can't help but let it consume me.

Yeah, i'm testing on the 21st. I just can't wait any longer! I know not to have my hopes up too high since it is early but that's what they make 2-pack tests for! If it's negative i'll wait until the 24th or 25th. I always use first response.

Ok, I can't wait any longer! I'm testing first thing in the morning. Af is due the 22nd (i thought it was the 23rd, I counted wrong) so I don't think tomorrow is too early. Wish me luck! I'll post my results (and i'm thinking positively but not so much that i'll be crushed if it's negative).

Baby dust. B.A.B.Y. D.U.S.T. Baby dust

positive. P.O.S.I.T.I.V.E. Possitive

hope it helps!


One of the nurses at the hospital where I work told me last night to try every other night, she said the sperm buildsup better, try different places, kitchen, bathroom, living room and even go out and rent a motel for a night, just for a change(she is a kick in the arse) and it helped them to get preggars.

I know you can, I know you can!

Af stands for aunt flo (your period).

Ttc is trying to conceive.

Welcome! I think these boards are pretty great!
