I have zero patience!
I am only 8DPO and I tested today - of course BFN. I know it's too soon, but I couldn't wait. Guess I learned my lesson!!

Re: I have zero patience!
It is really hard! And as cliche as this sounds, try to keep yourself busy and come up with projects to do to keep your mind off of it! 
People told me to wait until the day AF was due and like you, i'm a bit impatient (i tested at 10dpo). So at least wait until 11dpo+.

Can I ask, are you actively trying?
We aren't (we used the pull and pray method), but something is telling me that I am PG. Even though we aren't REALLY trying, I think I'm going to be disappointed if I'm not 
Also, are you experiencing any symptoms?

Yes, we are actively trying. I know exactly what you mean though. Last month we decided to stop using protection and "see what happens." I was feeling all kinds of symptoms and was 3 days late when AF showed up. I was SO upset. So this month we decided to actively try, and we used OPKs. The only thing is that because of whatever circumstances, we only were able to BD the day of the +OPK and not before or after that. I'm really thinking that this isn't our month
Right now I don't really have any symptoms. The only things I have been feeling are some heartburn (which could be unrelated) and some occasionally low-grade nausea (which could also be unrelated). I've felt a few cramps and twinges here and there, but nothing super out-of-the-ordinary.
What about you?

This whole thing is making me want to actively try I think DH is coming around to that decision too, so maybe next month we'll be ACTIVELY trying.
We pulled and pray this month, and being that this is the first month off the BCP, I don't even know if I'm regular. My expected ovulation date was October 31st, but who knows if I'm on track It's probably all in my head, but I was nauseous on and off, yesterday my boob hurt and I've just been feeling "off". It's probably my head playing tricks on me and it's so discouraging. I am so afraid that once we start really trying, I won't get pregnant. I can't believe how much I'm obsessing over this and we're not even TTC (technically). This totally consumes your life
BD to you!! I hope this is YOUR month!!!

I know what you mean! That's exactly how I felt last month. I was CONVINCED that I was pregnant, and was so disappointed when AF showed. It really made both me and DH want to start actively trying. I'm sort of ignoring anything I feel right now because I don't want to get my hopes up again like I did last month. I was a little sad to see the BFN (and now I know why it's called the BIG FAT negative) this morning, but I'll try again tomorrow and if it's still negative I'll try again on Tuesday when AF is due. I'm using the First Response EPT so I was really hoping for even just a faint positive today
Wishing lots of babydust to you too! We're in this together

Thanks so much for your reply  I'm hoping that if we get a BFN, that it will make us both realize that we're ready to try. At first DH really wanted to wait....now with the possibility of being pg, he is accepting it (gladly)...so maybe next month we'll be actively trying! Please keep me posted on your testing - I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!!!!!

I'm really trying not to lose hope, but it's hard! I'm going to test again the day AF is due.
If this isn't our month, we're going to skip this coming cycle and start fresh with the December one!
