Hi,
I've been frustrated a lot lately too.. and spending a lot of money on preg tets. Two months ago I started charting my BBT and honestly its the best thing I ever did. Last month would have been another huge disappointment and waste of money.. except I noticed my BBT started going down around 10 days past ovulation. That is a sign that AF is coming. Though I was still disappointed I was able to hold out from prematurely taking another preg test and sure enough AF came. Charting my BBT has helped paint a clear picture about what is going on each month and soften the blow when bad news is coming. My BBT is currently elevated so I am waiting to see what happens before taking a test. I would say if it doesn't work out this month, start charting! It is the happiest part of my morning each day.. charting keeps me busy and I use it in conjunction with OPK each month. I'm the kind of person who needs to see a change each day and this the only thing I can do right now besides wait. I feel your pain, give it a few days and wait until you are a week late before wasting any more money. Good luck to you. Baby dust,
Jackie

Thank you for your reply, Jackie , I really appreciate it!!! I am going to start charting my bbt! I tried to this last month, bit kept forgetting to temp before I got up. Maybe an alarm would work! You are right, this seems so harmless at first, but it is a huge waste of money! Thanks for helping me with a new plan!
