Lurking and POAS ?

I've been lurking here for a few months. DH and I are not "officially" trying. We wont be until Nov-Dec of this year. But, I noticed how many tests everyone goes thru. I know you are excited and I bet I'll be the same but I was just wondering what is the most amount of tests you've taken in one month?

i've only done it once when AF was late. it's my plan not to do it until then otherwise I'd be constantly disappointed and I just feel like it's bad karma, for some reason, to POAS every day when you know it's too early. setting yourself up for disappointment. JMO.

Kimberly YAY! Welcome, oh and to answer your question...for me it's just really hard, I guess because with DD it was so easy and I was so early when I tested I feel like it should be that way now, but it's not so I am going to have to train myself to stop the madness of POASs like a crazy person!

I would say I've used between 2 and 5, although it feels like more! This month I bought a pack of 25 on amazon so that I didn't feel so bad about using them.

DH made me promise now "while I am in my normal state of mind" Chat Icon that I will only test after a missed period...I know it will be hard but I think it's better to wait and try to keep it out of my mind (yeah right!Chat Icon)...
