why do we do it to ourselves???

Why do we test when we know it is too early then get upset at the BFN???  I am 9DPO my FF chart for reference. Sometimes I think about tossing the whole TTC thing and just letting it happen - but I would still be counting down the days! I know several people have posted about the 2WW crazys but man alive do I have them BAD this month! Probably because I have every symptom under the sun! lol I know I haven't been TTC as long as some of the others - I honestly don't know how you keep sane. I am going to step away from the HPTs and wait patiently (year right - who am I kidding!****il the weekend to test again.

Just needed to vent - thanks for listening ladies!

Liz, I can relate. When I was TTC #2 (for 6 years), I should have truly bought stock in HPT's. Hang in there, it will be time to test for real very soon!!

Best of luck to you.

I don't know how you do it either. But hang in there. When I was TTC, I honestly did just let things happen as they happened. And never tested until AF was late. I imagine I would have drove myself nuts if I was too organized about it.

But I am a very "fly by night" type of person. I take life as it comes, and go with the flow. I am not an overly organzied or anal person. So I guess that's why it worked for me to just let things go however they went.

I KNOW HOW DETAILED you are! And I think that is so awesome. But I guess sometimes it can be as frustrating as being unorganized like me.

Hang in there Liz........and PROMISE....no HPT till sunday!

((((HUGS))))

Saturday at the earliest - I promise! I only have 1 left! lol

I am organized in all the wrong aspects of my life - I should let nature take it's course!

I am so neurotic I was considering going to the PCP telling them I didn't feel well and see if they'd run my HCG or give me meds! I know I'm crazy... 

Pass some of your fertile mertle dust my way! lol

Liz- Hugs- I understand how frustrating TTC can be..I am a super organized person and hate procrastination, and enjoy having most things planned out.  It causes me great anxiety not to be in control of most situations.  BUT with TTC I did not let the 2 WW kill me, why because there was nothing more I could do..honestly, you live healthy, exercise, baby dance, temp, yadda, yadda...and you have to just wait it out.  It sucks.  For me the disappointment of getting BFN killed me, so I avoided them.  I didn't want to put myself through the disappointment..so I have always waited (since I had WLS, and increased my chances for BFP).  There are many, many months I sat in my bathroom and sobbed for disappointment, and feared it would never happen and I wouldn't have kids.  The stress that you self induce may prevent your dreams...breath, and relax...Now- no more HPT until AF is due or 1/2 days before.  Hoping this weekend / early next week to see a different out come from your testing. 

Thanks Jen :)

Liz,

I understand what you are going through. I know that you want to take that HPT to see that BFP. Just hang in there.

The disappointments are so hard when you see that negative on the HPT. So, just wait until it is time. Don't stress yourself out! Just relax and what will happen, will happen.

I am getting my hair colored tonight to cover the gray from the over a year of TTC!

OK, so I admit, I tested yesterday too, and got a BFN. I had hopes, since last time I had a faint positive 1 week before my period was due. I've promised myself not to take another one until Friday. Yeah, like that'll happen!

lol so glad that I have somewhere to come and share me being crazy and have people who have BTDT too!

Lets hope that we just had some late implantation and will get BFPs this weekend!

You know I have my fingers crossed for you!!!
