I'm due to test (also for no. 2) on the 13th. I know from past pregnancy experiences that I get very sick, very quickly so I'm already symptom spotting like you wouldn't believe .

We shall be strong and not test, even though a leftover First Response is in a draw, looking at me (fingers in ears, la, la , la ).

Dont really know when I am due to test due to a VERY irratic cycle. BUT FF says that 28 day cycle would be 13th so figure I can test then??? IF I can hold out that long.

I have been through stages of hating getting AF every month, to wondering if I was ever going to get AF again for 18 months followed by a couple of years of her showing up every 3 months or so, then getting her 1 month after the last for the first time last month - Now I dont know whether I want to see her to prove I am back regular and TTC can proceed with vigour!! or hoping she doesnt arrive for the best reason - A BFP???? SOOO confused

heverhoney1 - that must be so frustrating! When I came off the pill to start ttc 3 years ago I had a 64 day cycle and it was foul. Fingers crossed for you that it's a good cycle this time.

I'm also a fan of temp. charting as I know that if I have a mad cycle again I'll know that it's because I've not ovulated.

I have been using opk sticks but TBH they have messed with my head a bit. FR ones often show a line that is not as strong as the reference line, which is supposed to be neg but they have differed in strength and people have told me that you might nit get a full 24 hour surge so you might miss a +ve.

Temping is prob a good idea, will see how this month goes. Also I spoke with a nurse about my dodgy cycles when I went for my smear. She was really nice and said they would refer me to a gynae if I wanted to start TTC. Have had scans and blood tests in the past which all came back ok so I am not sure what there is left to do???

Slowly going mad at this end, how are you all doing?

The day before yesterday I was convinced that I am, but yesterday I was 99% sure that I'm not. Had a pint last night (just the one) but felt really guilty .

Temping is playing silly whatnots as I'm awake a couple of times in the night. Arghhhhhhhhh - say nice things to keep me sane please!

I'm testing on the 9th, last 2 cycles have been 28days and today is cd30, but want to hold out a little longer to hopefully get a bfp.
Good luck everyone

Good luck scully, Nelix is threatening to test on Saturday, so you might get BFPs together!
