Dee I'm not sure when I'm going to test. Or even if I will. I just dont have the want to at all.

@espence I get it, there are moments in the day where I dont even think about it.

You what annoys me? My mom wants to go on a trip to Greece in September, but doesn't have anyone to room with. And I want to go, but I keep thinking hey I might be due in September and it's like I have to wait to see if I get pregnant. I love travelling so much and my mom isn't getting any younger. So now I'm torn and sad because I want both and there's a part of me that would almost just push a baby off further. I hate that these things always come at the same time. Why didn't a trip like this come up when we weren't trying? I feel like I'm not going to be pregnant in the next couple of months anyway. I'm sure this sounds like such an awful problem to have lol I just don't get many opportunities to do fun things with my family. End ramble.

I feel y all ladies. We are all in this together. Soooo hard but oh so worth it!!

@Dee no IB for my 2 pregnancies but I did have it when I had my chemical back in September. I also had what seemed to be implantation bleeding at 10 dpo last cycle but then BFN and AF on time

You guys, I feel bad. I got home and had a drink, I do and don’t regret it. ????????

@Dee Hey! Is the “dye test” you are talking about, the HSG exam? If yes I did it months ago to check if I had any blockage and I had indeed in my right side.
My doctor ask me to take a painkiller before the examination and he told me that it would feel like period cramps. So I said “oh, ok I can handle this”... but nooooo... nothing like that. It was way more painful. Nothing you cannot handle tho but very painful still.
After the examination he asked to take antibiotics for 3 days to avoid any infection I believe, but nothing about going on birthcontrol. He never mention anything about that.
After we confirmed that my right tube is blocked he told me that many women have one tube blocked and had multiple pregnancies without problem, cuz they still had their other side but it just minimizes the opportunities on the months I ovulate on my right side. My option is that I could do a laparoscopic procedure to unblock it but I haven’t done it yet for many reasons. So there! That’s my experience. I hope it helped!

@kait I know how you feel! There are so many things I want to plan but I keep back because I’m always thinking “what if I get pregnant this month?” And it’s so tiring tbh..The idea o f a possible pregnancy is keeping me from actually living my life and sometimes I wonder... When I’m older and look back, how will I feel about my self for losing my life over something I’m not even sure it will come? Other times I think “oh God it totally worth it!” But for now I look back the past months I lost, and I roll my eyes.. I wish I could just live my life without the “what ifs” and after all if I get pregnant I will figure something out to re-plan as millions of women do on unplanned pregnancies... But then I cannot help my self overthinking lol TTC is a roller coaster

Ps I’m from Greece and I assure you if you choose to come on September, (when the weather is sweet) pregnant or not, you will not regret it

I’m 5 DPO today and my urge to test starts poking me lol @alexandra I totally fell you!
I bought 50 one step brand internet dip strips just to have something to dip when I cannot hold myself without feeling guilty that I spend a ton of money on hpts.
I know this brand is not as sensitive as they claim and most of people don’t get a line on those as they get on frers but honestly I keep them just to satisfy my POAS addiction!!
Two cycles ago I told my friend that I’m testing every day and she looked me like I was a crazy lady lol That day was when I decided that I won’t talk about this again with my RL cycle... I’m glad in here that I’m not the only crazy on this and that I can share this with you ladies without judging me.

@essence at least you have an easier time not testing !!

@sig that's exciting welcome to the group and I hope you have a baby bean growing inside of you soon !!

@rosie yeah it sucks but what can you do I hope you get a positive soon girl you so deserve it !!

@dee uhg it's terrible and it gets so expensive but all worth it right? The dye thing sounds shitty and I'm so sorry that you'd have to go on birth control I'm absolutely terrified of getting there... Hopefully you have a bfp soon to avoid those things!! As far as implantation bleeding goes, no I didnt have it but when I had bleeding during a cycle it wasn't baby related

@kait well babe I'd go because like you said you dont know if you'd be pregnant at the end of the month and I mean its family time so why not... I dont think I would put off trying though because of the trip maybe just with a month or 2 to be sure you can still travel

@alex girl I did the same testing every day/every second day from 3dpo one cycle lol... I dont talk to my family or things about that either because everyone waited till they missed their periods before testing and I just dont have that will power... Here's to testing early
