POAS Addicts - HELP! Cant stop testing!
sometimes I think having all these tests available hurts more than helps. I am 9dpo and have tested for the last 4 days.
All BFN..
And I know its too early. How can I stop being a crazy woman? Everytime my boob twinges, I swear I might be pregnant and test.
This is silly. Is anyone else acting on this absurdity as well?
Really hoping for that super faint line so I justify all this madness.

I typically start testing at 8DPO. I have low progesterone during the luteal phase and will need progesterone supplementation if I get a BFP so I don't have a 6th loss so, for me, I feel like it's pretty worth it to test early and often. I'm always so paranoid that if I wait to test by the time I get a BFP I'll have waited too long to start progesterone.
So basically I test like a crazy lady twice a day from 8DPO till my period.
I just buy a bunch of internet cheapies (Wondfos are my favorites so far) and then I can test relatively guilt free. I feel like my peace is mind is absolutely worth the 50 cents a test or whatever.
You're not alone in your POAS addiction. :)
