Mania...5dp5dt

You know how during the 2ww you are (im)patiently waiting and passing the time, and then you hear of someone else who POAS and got a positive? Then you look at how far along they are and realize that they are only a day further along than you?

Today it happened! Like a snowball to the face, the POAS mania just hit me! Now I want to run out and buy a test or twelve. I want to go. I want to buy. I want to PEEEEEEE!

But I am telling myself now that I must resist the urge. I must resist going walking. I must resist reaching into the cookie jar. I must resist buying pregnancy tests!

In two seconds I went from calm and relaxed to WANTING! Argh! Now the next few days are going to be torture! lol.

xoxo

BTW, Happy 63rd bday Dad! Love you!

  2. I am encouraging bad behavior, but I got an early positive on 12dpo (or 9dp3dt) -- faint but obvious, and it was raging positive by the next day. You do what you gotta do! Hope the next few day fly by!

  3. I always get a faint positive at 12dpo... though I know that isn't helping your mania. If you can hold out, I have a TON of tests you can have... I'm never going to use them :)

  4. Awww, I want to tell you to hang in there and hold out, but I know that I couldn't do it. I know I'd be a batty, nail-chomping monster. :)

  5. Yeah I tested on the day that you're at now...I couldn't wait any longer. I had one little (very old) test sitting innocently in the medicine cabinet...it just HAD to be peed on...right then. :o)

    Whatever you decide to do...keep us posted! :o)

  7. Waiting is so tough. I think you should test if you want to, though I've never been one to wait for the beta ;)

    Good luck!!!!!

  9. It's just a craving. It will pass. Wait 20 minutes before you act, or chew some gum, or something. (I'm a hypocrite, I know, but whatever.) May the upcoming days pass swiftly!

  10. I hope you see those two beautiful lines whenever you decide to POAS. Hope the clock moves fast for you.

  11. I CANNOT believe how fast your time has gone by! For real! Easy for me to say, right? It seems just like yesterday you had your transfer! I hope you get the darkest second line you've ever seen in your life...tomorrow? ;)

  12. Haha, I totally know that mania! lol. I'd wait to test, personally, because a false negative would just be so depressing and awful. Once we got to IVF I always resisted the urge to POAS (unless my period was more than three weeks late, which happened twice), but I think I just couldn't bring myself to look at another negative pee stick. I did, however, afford myself the elusive and glorious chance to see a positive once I got my beta results!! :) Good luck with whatever you decide to do. Beta in 4.5 days!!!

  13. Well i'd say if you have a hpt in the house then there is no way you'll be able to put off peeing on it for very long.... no one is THAT strong!!

    For me personally the fear of a negative always stops me from poas.... but you on the other hand have 2 lovely blasts inside you and that gives you 4000000% better odds than i've ever had!!!!!

    SO EXCITED FOR YOU GIRL!!!

  14. Arrrrrrghhhh! This is the hardest time!!! As one who holds the world record for the most POAS in one week, I gotta say: WAIT!!!
    Thinking of you and hoping as hard as humanly possible!
    Love,
    Maddy
