I had a miscarriage on Sept. 24 (well it started that day) so I am cycle day 28, I usually have 28-32 day cycles. I have sadly had so many losses that my cycles havent ever gotten straight. I tested yesterday afternoon with a $tree test and got a BFN. I am NOT going to spend more $ on tests until my period is LATE but I soooo want to

.
I am not sure how I feel about being pregnant again. I want another baby so very bad but I am too scared to lose another.
I am on progesterone for the second half of my cycle and and I am starting baby asprin (just in case). So knowing wont change anything except stress me more!

dont do it to yourself!!!!

i know how hard it is not to poas (i was in a different country than SO when i Od last cycle but i still tested

) but seriously, its still so soon after your loss so your cycles could be messed up still and you dont want the disappointment of another bfn just yet
stay strong and stay away from those tests!

You don't want to test now, just give it a little time. Have you been charting to figure out when the second half of your cycle starts? I had my loss on Sept. 19th and I still haven't reached the end of this cycle. I have been charting since day 11 (after I finally found my basal thermometer that my kids ran off with) and my temp didn't even go up until day 24 and I usually have about a 28 day cycle. If I have my normal 12 day LP this will be a 36 day cycle. Just something to think about if you haven't been charting. Even if you have been, you should still wait until AF is due or you'll just make yourself crazy. I do think there's a possibility I may need to test in a few days if AF doesn't show, I'm thinking Saturday morning is my deadline. It's so hard to wait, but it will really save your sanity. Wait with me! You can do it!!!

Don't test at all!! It takes anywhere from 4-8 weeks to get your period again after a miscarriage. You will just be wasting your money trying to test as if you were on a "normal" cycle.

this was my 4th loss in a row, with all of them except my mid second trimester loss i started 4-5 weeks after pretty much a normal cycle.
I am 99% sure I o'd about 10-11 days ago. I just dont want to waste the money!
