I always feel like it is so much longer than it should be....when in reality its only about 14 days for me, lol. I always feel like for some reason my LP is so much longer than everyone elses!! And when people test on 8-10DPO i always get so jealous when they get positives becuase i am always too afraid to test that early, i usually wait until AF is late, so its always like 14-15dpo!!!

SO what day do you test on? Do you wait for a specific day each cycle, or do you play it by ear with your symptoms??

I probrbaly wont test unless af is late. i hate seeing bfn, so i would rather wait for AF to show up, then to see a BFN.

I know the feeling! Last month I tested at 8 dpo, and of course got a negative. I really shouldn't have done it so ealry, but I was having a couple symptoms that led me to believe it might be positive!

This month I am really going to try to wait until the 18 days dpo, like I have seen suggested, especially because my cycles have been really erratic lately. But it will definitely be hard to do!

The 2ww is LONG....lol...

With that being said...my friend Jenny has been TTC for 2+ years and just had IVF on January 14th....and she STILL isn't sure one way or the other if she is preggo!!! Hopefully on Monday they'll be able to see more in the u/s. That poor girl has had such a LONG wait. I feel blessed to only have to wait 2 weeks now though it still isn't easier.

So please send tons of + vibes for my friend

And good luck with the 2ww....I'll be testing somewhere between 2/12 and 2/14

Jan
