THE 2WW is HORRIBLE! Questions
This is my first 2ww since I was finally able to know when I ovulated. It is so horrible! I am only 5 DPOs. Can I test at 8? How about 10?
TMI Warning-
My n-i-pp-l-e-s are so sensetive, I barely touch them and I can feel it! As a big boobie girl, this is not the norm for me!
I had a twinge yesterday while shopping, now its gone.
On top of that,....I have a COLD!
Anyone else in the 2 ww?

Re: THE 2WW is HORRIBLE! Questions
ITA - DO NOT TEST AT 8DPO! it's a complete waste of a test. 10dpo is close too. your best bet is waiting for 12dpo.
also, i know its hard but try not to look into all the symptoms of the 2WW. most are caused by fluctuations in progesterone after ovulation. people "swear" they are pregnancy symptoms when its just normal hormonal fluctuation. for me at least, symptoms don't exist, as I had the same "symptoms" prior to my BFP that I had in BFN cycles. just hang in there.

I agree, I had similar signs the cycles I didn't get pregnant as when I did! Signs mean nothing!
Also, testing at 8dpo is definitely a waste. When I got pregnant, I tested at 10dpo and got a positive but it was SO light that I doubt a line would have showed up even one day earlier.... 8dpo, def not!

Re: THE 2WW is HORRIBLE! Questions
I got a BFP at 9DPO with my DC-- but I know that doesn't work for everyone. I was a POAS-aholic, so I didn't care about wasting tests. Def get some of the cheapo tests when you can't take the waiting anymore. I am super impatient. I took the dollar tree test, then a FRER and a digital and got all BFPs.
My advice though-- just try to take your mind off the symptoms. You will only drive yourself crazy. Good luck!

Re: THE 2WW is HORRIBLE! Questions
My + was at 9dpo. If you buy dollar store tests you won' feel like ur wasting $ but still u have to think about how the "disappiointment" will be for u. Remember though that a - at 9dpo is certainly not "out"!

Re: THE 2WW is HORRIBLE! Questions
I am a POAS addict so my answer is to stock up on cheapies  a better answer would be to wait till 12DPO, I never can
