I got tired of spending so much money on pregnancy tests, and the 2ww is overrated! So I made myself some rules so that I wont get my hopes up amd then get another BFN.

FIRST RULE BEFORE I CAN POAS!!: Must have had at least 10 days of temps (AND resting pulse rate) above the control line!!! Preferably more, but hey, if I get impatient at 10dpo I'll buy a Frer. For example, here's my chart I didnt have enough high temps so Im not gonna waste a beautiful HCG stick 😂😂

2nd rule!!: No symptom spotting! Sore boobs is not a reason to ignore rule #1! If charts look non-pregnant, I'm not torturing myself, this includes CM and CP. And finally the third rule...

Rule number 3!: (as written on the piece of paper taped to my pregnancy test box) Do not open this box until you have sat down, de-stressed, and cleared your mind. No testing when youre already stressed out and sad! If it is a BFN, that will only make it worse. And if it is a BFP, it is better to have all the crappy stuff out of your mind while you SCREAM!
