8 days is still a long way. Good to test if you miss you AF for a few days. The mind can do a lot coz we keeping thinking about it. I had heart burn, bloated, sore boobs but end up AF came spot on.

Best to test 1 week after your missed period. But if your period is very very timely kind, I guess no harm testing when it is due and you don't see it. Good luck!
I agree with @yoshi_trying in my previous months, I always think a lot too.. think I am pregnant. Haha.

Do u know which day u o? As a early tester, I at most earliest is test on dpo 12. So assume u o at cd 15, today is only dpo 7. Some pple dpo 7 have not even implant, so definitely too early. If u wanna test early, something like cd 27/28 earliest.
Nurul, I had that same symptom, frequent peeing. Sadly, AF showed up..
Ladies, is it true that women with pcos cant use opk because of false results? Something to do with the hormones surge or dunno what.. My left ovary is polycystic and I thought of starting to track bbt and use opk but not sure if it will work for me.

@darbi, need your advise. For longan & red dates drink, do I need to remove the seed from the red dates? Do I have to cut open the red dates & put in hot water to drink? I am trying it out now in office here. hehe. I managed to buy the longans but they were the dried type. I think I saw another type of longan that's dark brown in colour. The ones that I bought seem very dried & yellow. Where do you buy the longans from ah?

remove seed is to cut down on the heatness. Yes, you should buy dried longan.
Don't buy giant brand dried longan, they got a weird artificial sweetness to it.
I normally buy all my dried stocks from either bugis food market center or Hock Hua.

sunflower307, tks for your advise!! It seems to taste a bit bland after I soak it in hot water. Usually how many red dates do you add ah?
sunflower307
Well-Known Member
I have a 500ml thermal mug, I normally throw abt 5-7 red dates, around 4-5 longan and a handful of wolfberries
You must let it soak for at least 2-3hrs then you can taste it. Once the water is a bit orange you can drink

Ops... My dried longan is from Giant.
Bubbleblue, I think if is too bland, you can add abit more longan, will taste sweeter.
No weird funny artificial sweet smell? My colleague brought 1 pkt from Giant then I wanna to use, but when I smell abit funny. I ask my another colleague to smell, she also feel its a bit weird.

Hmmm.. no weird smell though... Hmm...
But my husband helped me to prepare so maybe he smelled it but did not notice... When I drank it, it was okie...
But I think I will switch to Hock Hua next time... Maybe still better to get all from Chinese medicine shops.

ya, most medical hall got sell these items, don't need to get from Hock Hua la. I just get from them coz they are available in most of the shopping mall.
Ur hub sweet lei, help u prepare.

hihi for those ladies who are trying to make your logan red dates wolfberries drinks... here's another method. this was what i did last time. now drinking tcm so cannot drink all these stuffs le if not will be very very heaty till fall sick oso no gd.
method 1 (if no boiling available)
wash all e stuffs - ok some ppl don wash, but i will wash
put everything inside ur thermal flask
when e food is softened, use a spoon or whatever to press on e red dates so e smell will come out. as for logans and wolfberries, don need to break it. *buy seedless red dates if not it will be very heaty.
soak it like 2 hrs shld be able to drink le.
method 2 (e boiling method)
if u are diligent enough and have time, u can bring to boil them till the water is boiled. no need too long, just 3mins will do ( for 1 FULL BIG cup)
then steep it in your thermal flask and bring to work this is what i did last time. the taste is better and it is more effective.
u can add as much as u like... usually i add a lot more wolfberries (say 1 soup spoon +-) , red dates not too much cos heaty for some ppl, i am more of liang body so i put abt 5 or 6 pcs +- and logan too much no good cos too sweet so i put only 4 or 5.
buying all these at medical hall is better than buying from the ntuc or supermarket. medical hall are fresher i think... and nicer quality too. pls buy quality ones (not expensive), cos it will go to waste if u drink e lousy quality, no point la...
red dates buy those bigger ones , don't look so crinkled and dry type.
wolfberries i usu choose those fatter types, more dark orange type (looks more orange)

Alternative to emily's method 1: Wash the ingredients (I wash with hot water 1x followed by cold water 2x), then bite the red dates open

@Emily Tan apart from that hor, I use method 1 but to make it less heaty, I put 1-2 nan xing inside. I can't remember who was the one who mentioned this the last time. I think it works. It's really less heaty for me.

No seeds in e dates less heaty n slightly less sweet. I buy from eu yan sang as it was near my plc. Ntuc can find too. But for this kind do from scratch i double boil at home w rock sugar n wolfberries then gt taste.
In ofc. The fast way. I buy gold kili red date tea. Put some dates, dried longan n wolfberries to soak. Since e red date tea alr is sweet no need sugar.
So i gt fast way n slow way. Hee

Somehow my body can take it to drinking LRD every other day. Though I'm just cutting down to 2x a week now. To me the best way is throw everything into a thermal flask. I also add ginger (my body really can take heaty things haa). Don't need to watch over fire and 3 hrs later I get perfect LRD tea. Oh and of course must wash all the ingredients! Er very dirty if don't wash. I'm sure some dirty hands have handled them before -_-
