Okay ladies---I need your opinion (I tried setting up a poll, but I couldn't get a message on it too...so, I'm asking this way!)


Depending on if I count CD days or LP days, AF is due on different days this cycle (b/c my O day was late)

hi! well, normally i am a pusher for POAS, but i think that it might be more disappointing to have a BFN , rather than to have AF come.

i personally just test test test, i dont care. BUt you have to think about how YOU feel!

i did get nmy very first BFP (after a couple bFNs) on my Dh's birthday, so that was nice. AF was 2 days late BTW.

GL & happy birthday!

As said, it depends on how you feel.


I would personally rather test and get a BFN or BFP. If I got another BFN, I wouldn't be more bummed than I already am playing the waiting game.

I wouldn't have the self control to not test.

Hmmm, I'm leaning towards test. If it's BFP you have a wonderful birthday gift/memory and if it's BFN pop open a bottle of champagne and have a nice b-day celebration!

Happy (early) Birthday to you! Coincidently my b-day is tomorrow haha :)

I would tell anyone not to test on special occaisions because 9 times out of 10 it ruins the special day if it's negative.

You just have to go with your gut on this one.
