My Mood: Points: 1,376.72 Bank: 0.00 Total Points: 1,376.72 | Which hpt? Hi cysters! i have been a member here for a while, but i mainly lurk.
i was dx with PCOS in 2006 i think.... i am a thin-ish cyster.
my question de jour, i *think* there is something going on in my uterus, but i am unsure. i took a $ store hpt last week, it was a bfn.
but i am still having all these wierd things going on. little cramps, pulling, i am soo hungry at times, tired, can't sleep, head aches, wierd bood issues, light headed, queasy if i do not eat, this past week i have had to get up at 4-5 am to potty, and my belly is just off........ i don't know...just strange.
i still have some $ store hpts left, but i want to try a brand nome test, even though supposedly the cheapies are just as good... i dunno.
so- any super suggestions?
my lmp was 77 days ago- ah PCOS, don't we love it, and i was for sure last week af was coming, but just the wierd stuff and af type cramps.... nothing else.
thanks for listening... i feel like i know you guys already..... especially in the march 2009 and april 2009 buddy groups. |

That can give you somewhat of an indicator of when you ovulated so you would know when to test. When did you test and get a BFN? If you aren't sure of your cycle, you might want to wait a week past that date to give your body plenty of time.
I personally like the First Response tests. They've never steered me wrong!
Also, before every one of my BFP's I have ALWAYS had AF type symptoms.

I also took this three days before my AF was supposed to start and got a BFP. Turned out I was only 3.5 weeks along at that time.

My Mood: Points: 1,376.72 Bank: 0.00 Total Points: 1,376.72 | the last test i took was last friday.
and i hate to be "one of those people" that are super sensitive to anything..... but this is confusing me... i have never experience these things al at once.
i do not chart or any of that, i never had, because really i am not worried about getting preg. my gyn told i would most likely have to plan and work at it.
so my df and i do not use bc, just pull out. i know stranger things have happened and i could be preg.
also i am getting married in a month, so i am stressed... which i know very well could factor in, but i am getting married in a month and i want to be as sure as possible about what is or isn't gestating.
also, this is stupid- and could be part of my IPS- if they are.
but df and i went to miami 2 weeks ago, and there was a tarot reader, so she read my cards... she asked if i was getting married i said, yes, and i was super stressed about it- she told me it would be beautiful and not to worry- which has actually helped me not to worry about the wedding as much.
anyways, then she asked if twins ran in my family, i told her not that i knew of, and she said she saw me with two babies very soon after i get married......
Then, at work, my two co-workers basically cornered me and asked if i was pregnant. i said no and asked why they thought so. well one of the ladies is very sensative to things like that- she predicted that the other co-worker was preg. before she even knew it.
not that i am saying the latter hold any weight... i do like signs though.. |

I agree the First Response Early Response ones are awesome. Haven't tried Dollar Tree, but I just bought the cheap Target ones last night (even though I got a Pregnant on a digital test) and I wasn't impressed. I prefer the pink ink ones over the blue. Easier to read. Also check out peeonastick.com.

I think only because I just get so tired the first trimester - and I'm already a normally sleepy person. Hopefully you get to come over and join us on the April mommies thread!! I'll be keeping an eye out for you!!
GL!!
