Pregnancy Info HOME

I have a first response (and a digital) that I am saving to use if I get a positive on my internet cheapies. The intenet ones are supposed to be sensitive to 20. I think first response is like 25. I would say that is your best bet....although a lot of women have had good early (9 dpo) success with dollar tree tests. Good luck!!!

Maybe I'll stop tonight and buy one of those $ tree tests for the morning.....Or maybe I'll just wait.....I dunno....I am so back and forth!

Ya Missy, I agree w/cynthia, go buy a couple of dollar tree hpt (i use them too and have had better results w/them than first response), and buy a digi one for like the day closer to your next af. I am 8 dpo or at least I think i am...i tested this morn (neg) and will continue to test everyday w/my cheapy dollar trees tests...Thinking of going to get a digi too as i get closer to af, i have a good feeling bout this month...GL

I'm scared to test. I will be really discouraged if I get a negative, even though it's early. Why oh why can't I just rest a__sured it will all happen in God's time? Why can't that be good enough for me?

Missy - you know that it is good enough for you!!! :-) If you happen to end up with af this month (but I hope not!), you will be sad, but move on to next month. You won't stop trying and will know your day will come. We will all be with you here next month as well! I try to tell myself not to wish life away...sometimes I want tomorrow or next week here so bad, I lose focus on today. Each day has it's purpose...enjoy!!! I am hopeful for you this month! Go out and buy those $ tree tests.....it would be nice to have them on hand....just in case you want to test!!!

Uggg.....I know....like I said earlier....I am negative nelly today....Thanks for the kind words and I know you're right = ) Maybe if I keep telling myself that, I'll start to believe it ;D

I say test, i know i have had plenty of let downs in the last year. You try again next month if it doesnt happen this month (hope not either), but at least you can put yourself at ease until the next morning for just a buck...small price to pay. Then test again, and again, until aunt flow happens to show up. We are all right there w/ya, and hopefully we will all get our bfp's!!!!

Missy if you wanna test now then i say go for it, get a test that says that it can show results up to 5 days before missed period, and go for it if you wanna get it out of your system, and if its negative, then you can a__sure yourself that you still have time because it might just be too early, i say why not give it a shot ?

ohh and are you having or feeling any symptoms like sore b___bs, back pains, light cramping on and off, nausea, headaches ?

I am anxious to here what you do, so make sure you let us know!!! How long are you going to be gone?

But I don't want to tell hubby in case I'm not - I'm not ready to hear the crying wolf story yet - he's kinda a no nonsense kinda guy and is just taking the position that when it should happen it will, just like with DD and I should just let nature run it's course....So, if I can, I will escape for a bit tonight, run over to the $ tree, and agonize for the test until tomorrow AM.....Otherwise, Wednesday it is! I've gotta stop thinking about this....I've decided I am going to focus on happy stuff to get me outta this funk I'm in! Anyone have a toddler they are trying or have potty trained? Mine's bein such a bugger - I am trying to figure out a new way to bribe her LOL....

I'll have the computer with me, I'll only be gone from Sun AM to Tues PM. I will post in evenings when we are just hangin out in the hotel room...

Oh and Brittnay - no sore b___bs, backache off and on, nasuea 2x over the past week but just a few minutes at a time, cramping all day yesterday like AF was to come, and headaches off and on. But I can attribute any of those things to work, life, regular stuff, so I don't know what is going on....

hmm, do you usually get nausea or headaches before you AF or is it different this time around, trying to pin point things

Hey Missy - - I am a mom of 3!!! My ds will be 13 years tomorrow...my dd will be 10 years in Oct and my ds is 20 months. I am going to start training him in about a month or so I think. My 1st was a breeze.....he trained literally in the course of a weekend. My dd was a little more difficult...but not too bad. I find that you try to figure out when they have a bm...if it is the same time everyday...and then sit the little one on the potty and try to wait. Easier said than done I know....it helps when they watch you go potty too!!! They always want to mimic what mom and dad do!

I usually get NO symptoms before AF other than tummy bloat - no cramps, nothing until the day of arrival. This is all different....Before my lmp on 7/11 I didn't feel anything but I knew it was coming because i have always, for the last 10 years, had a very consistant 28 day cycle, bc pills or no pills. Cynthia, my dd is 22 mos and up until 2-3 weeks ago was all about going on the potty, but now is waiting until AFTER she's gone pee to tell us "pee-pee". I am wondering if it's because we moved on 7/20?
