unsolicited advice about HPTs

Hi ladies!

As someone who has been driving themselves insane taking 500 of those cheap dip tests early, please let me say this— stop testing! Wait until you’re truly like 4-5 days past the day you’re period is supposed to start. Don’t drive yourself nuts trying to figure out if there’s a faint line. I started testing like 5 days before my period was due and was so sad when I saw nothing. Then when I finally started seeing a faint line I was making myself even more stressed by wondering if it was getting lighter and I I could be losing it.

Am now a week late and tested again and the line is suuuper dark. The anxiety will kill you. Just relax and wait. Stay calm. Put your feet up. It’s going to happen just have faith!
