Re: When to POAS?
cd12 or cd13 seem to be the best dates - but everyone has their own opinion..
some people have gotten bfp's on cd9, cd10.
it has to be fmu to be accurate - though i'm sure if it's a bfp - any urine will do!

Re: When to POAS?
I figured,just checking, so just because itwas a BFN, doesnt mean I am out for the month, right?? I didnt expect anything, it was impulsive!!! So I will test again in a couple of days if I dont get AF
Thanks :)

Re: When to POAS?
pretty much every pms symptom can be a pregnancy symptom - one of life's little mysteries (as to why mother nature tortures us like this).
again - symptoms differ from person to person. some experience them from minute ONE (conception, some people say that felt 'different' from the getgo) and others had no symptoms until month 3.

you're very welcome! it's very hard to learn the hard way the games our minds' can play on us. take it from someone who's been there.

According to FF, 13dpo is the most reliable test date.

ITA.
Also, anything can seem like a pregnancy symptom since we are paying attention to every cramp and twinge while TTC. For me, I only look at symptoms that couldn't be attributed to anything else (ex: cramping could be PMS, gas could be from the burrito you had for lunch, etc.)
