| When should I test? Blast this waiting! Ah!!!
Ok, so I am 13DPO... AF is due to start today, and so far she's been a noooo-show! 
So, my goal is to hold off on testing until Wednesday, provided  keeps her distance.
Now I am wondering if I should test tomorrow morning...that would put me at 14DPO... or should I wait til Wednesday... or even LONGER?
Opinions?  to all!  | | | | Status: Offline

| I would say that as you had a BFN yesterday that you should leave it a few days. When I conceived #1, I knew I was pregnant on CD22 but kept it to myself for 8 days before telling my partner and then another week before testing because my mum just wouldn't believe I was pregnant and I needed to do one before going to my GP. It may have been that if I'd tested earlier I'd have got a BFN - depends on you HCG levels. I've heard of women whose pregnancies couldn't be detected by in their wee or their bloods, only by a scan later on (weird, I know!). I'd leave it as long as possible - either the hag will show or your HCG levels will rise.
Hope you get your 
Fingers crossed! I'm 3 dpo and hoping for one myself!

| Thanks, ladies.
I am going to just hold off as long as possible, provided AF stays at bay.
Wednesday is 15dpo and was my original "goal" to wait until...you know what, I am going to try and wait til Thursday.
Give myself days to count off...keep me busy, instead of wondering if AF is lurking round the corner!
Right now my "solution" to my crazy desire to test is to just scuttle into the bathroom as quick as I can and wee! That way I can't even think about grabbing that pink test box! hahah!  | | | | Status: Offline
