Another TTC question...

How long after your last rendevouz (for a lack of a better description lol) should you take a test? Just curious.

Re: Another TTC question...

  • hmmmm......umm, that kind of depends when your last 'rendevouz' or BD (baby dance) was. If it was right around when you 'think' you O'd then wait about 2 weeks. Or...if you know when you should expect AF, wait until that point and the day of or after test.

    Are you charting? or no? 

    But basically, its best to wait until you think you are late - then test. Sometimes your cycle can vary in length - mine would vary from 25 days - 32 days. but averaged 28 days. so.....its hard to say exactly. but good luck! if you don't get a bfp when you think you should, wait a couple days and then test again.

  • girl, you need to read TCOYF!!!  Without charting, then you don't know when you o'd, so you should just wait until you think you should be getting your period and start testing then.  If you were charting and knew when you o'd, you could start testing around 10 dpo (days past ovulation) but might still get a false negative for a few days, if there isn't enough HCG (the pg hormone) in your urine for the test to pick up.

  • Thanks for the info ladies.

    LOL Danielle, I know...I was just trying to do it the "old fashion" way, but it's been a little over a month since we started trying and I'm SOOOOO impatient! haha

    Ok, what does TCOYF stand for again? I swear I'm going to order the book online as soon as you tell me! =)

  • Bonnie, you are hilarious. :-)

     

    It is VERY hard to be patient.  This is our first cycle, and I am 7 DPO right now....I want to hold off until 10 dpo to test (since I only have a 10 day LP - luteal phase, the time btwn ovulation and when you get your period).  But then I hear of all these people who get BFPs at 8 dpo and it makes me want to test NOW.  Monday can't get here soon enough, lol!
