    Fighting the urge to POAS...

    After what I think was a chem pg/early mc last month, I'm again in the TWW (somewhere between 9 and 11 dpo) and starting to obsess.

    I didn't track Ov with OPKs this cycle and as Ov has been a bit iffy in the past I have been taking Soy Isoflavones during my recent TTC efforts- but not this cycle either...

    But I am (of course) noticing every little twinge, possible symptom etc and going slowly crazy. I'm trying not to POAS until at least CD31- (next Tuesday!) my longest cycle recently but it's so hard!!!

    Just needed to share my frustrations! Thanks for listening. If you are also in the TWW, feel free to join my rant

    I was never very good at waiting Even when I knew that it was waaaay too early to test, there I would be at 4dpo, rummaging through my drawers to find my hidden stash!

    Good luck, hope to hear a PA soon.

    Thanks everyone, going slowly crazy here! No HPTs in the house so still resisting but my boobs are feeling *****ly/tingly (but not tender? ) so hoping that's a good sign!

    I've tested at 4dpo before ... And I've also been known to test when AF arrives just in case it's a heavy implant bleed
