| do i bother testing? I'm on CD36 (i think...maybe more), have had backache for a few weeks, am a right moody cow, boobs are a bit sore and my abdomen feels tight, i'm tired but can't sleep too...and chocolate doesn't taste all that nice....and keep needing the toilet (but all of these maybe things all have other explanations too...well, almost all of them)
My cycles are irregular and AF shows up when she can be bothered - anything from 4 weeks to 11 months
to test, or not to test....that is the question.... |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Test - it'll be at the back of your mind, stress you out and feed the moody cow in you!!!
At least you'll know.
Wishing lots of babydust xxx |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Hey Mynxie, I'm not really a POAS kinda girl and like you, am always reluctant to do it! Guess it feels like i'm tempting fate or something? (And i always know it will be a BFN!). This month i am really late for AF. I've tested twice and both BFN's - booo! Although i had a little cry (like you do!) initially after doing the test, on the whole i feel a lot better about it all now, as i know i am waiting for the  and not driving myself mad symptom spotting and wondering and imagining!
Anyway, i guess what i am trying to say is that although testing can be difficult, i think sometimes even if the result isnt what you want, it can make life easier as it means you aren't thinking about it as much. Your imagination can be your own worst enemy sometimes!!
That said, i wish you all the luck in the world!! I'd absolutely love to see you get a BFP xxx |
