POAS Addicts?
Yes,, i am a poas addict, i have started testing at 8dpo. Ridiculous, i know.
Anyway, my two week wait is up this Friday. I woke up at 2am this morning and POAS AGAIN and it was a BFN.
I am blowing too much money on these tests....so should i try to hold out until tomorrow, or try again tonight. I ran out of tests, so i have to buy some more.

Re: POAS Addicts?
Maybe we should start POASA support meetings? I ordered 5 boxes from drugstore.com

Re: POAS Addicts?
you shouldnt bother testing at 8 or 9DPO. the chances of a BFP are so low even if you are pregnant. its nearly a complete waste.

Re: POAS Addicts?
You really should try to hold out.
I POAS even thought there was a pretty much zero chance.
But I WAS tired....and bloated...AND cranky, and eating everything.
I get ya, but I have started to JUST wait now. They ARE $$$$$$

Re: POAS Addicts?
My trick is to not have any in the house and not to buy them until I miss AF. But, I have one left over from last month so I'm sure I'll use it way too early!!!

If i don't get a BFP this month, I will definitely do that. In the meantime, i went out at lunch and bought 4 dollar store tests. I'll test when i get home again tonight.

Re: POAS Addicts?
this is why i always said i wouldn't poas until i was late...otherwise you just drive yourself crazy and throw money away...i know it's hard to wait until you are late and i know i got lucky by getting a bfp when i tested the first time so i can't really speak from experience when it comes to months of bfns.....
i know the next time around i will need serious willpower, but overall i think it's better to wait it out...i think the testing just causes more stress and anxiousness which isn't good...

Re: POAS Addicts?
I am definitely not an addict. I wait until I am late for my period. Seeing the negative test just upsets me.

Agreed. I bought about a billion a few months ago and still have plenty left. You won't feel so guilty when you can't even remember how much you paid for each one!

Re: POAS Addicts?
I was POAS like crazy, now I limit myself to one box every 28 days. I don't test until I know I'm late now.
