Certainly a possibility Podmog, have you searched the web for info about this? No exp personally on this but I know OPK and persona are affected by pg hormones and given that b feeding can affect getting pg then it may affect an early test. Hope someone else can help. I would go to the pregnancy threads and put out a new thread for 'Mears' she's our gorgeous online midwife! Very knowledgable and will be able to help u!!!

Hi all, jus a quickie!! Egypt, I did tell all family at 5 weeks cos it was xmas and they would wonder why wasn't drinking! That pg went ok too! I held off telling with the next 2 but wasn't much point anyway leaving it late in my case. If u want to , just tell them!! Good luck , have a lovely weekend!!!

thanks twig
maybe we wont tell and ring them after we've told mums next w/e. if we do tell them today, they wont tell anyone as they dont speak to dh's mother's side of family! we'll see. shall discuss in car on way up! its nice that you've told everyone. ,much easier that way. even people at work??? what colour are you having your bedroom?

Hi quackers
I'm here, have been reading this thread but keeping quiet. Am also off to have a few glasses of wine tonight. Making the most of it while I can. Will stop when get back to NZ and start ttc. Can't wait to get back to DH now, really missing him. He appparantly is also missing me lots so we should be game on when I get home (if you know what I mean). Am amazed at how much everybody knows on this thread. Was going to take ov sticks back to NZ but have been talked out of it by gynaecologist friend (need too many as irregular since m/c - says better to just have lots of sex!!! Am sure Dh will be happy with that). Will start to look for stringy bits though although last 2 times fell pregnant on day 14 both times. First time by "accident" and second at first attempt. Fingers crossed for 22/11.
Have good evenings everybody

hi quackes, good to hear from u. not doing short days, just left early - well teaching u see so left asap!!!! babs fine i think. still feeling same twinges when standing, and boobs feeling heavy and sore, but all ok. i a bit of a predicament really..advice please - next w.e we have invited both our sets of parents up to tell them news, which will be great. but this w/e - as in tomorrow we are coincidentally going away to visit dh's dad an d stepmum. his aunt/uncle and grandad will be there. which is basically all his dads side of family. wud be ideal time to tell them news as all together, but i'm only 5 weeks and havent had preg confirmed by doc (despite doing 4 positive tests!) what shall we do???? dh says its up to me. also feel a bit bad about tellin dh'd dad b4 his mum and expecially my mum and dad as we are much closer to those. argh, also i shant be drinking and we always get smashed. they are bound to suss

Quacks at least you are not alone in night time worry mongering J so another question- does anyone know what number day most people get SURGE? Do you think I?ve missed it (I?m day 12) if I have 27 day cycle?

Personally I don't have the energy and fortunately have only needed to do it 1 or 2 tims when I feel my ovaries twinging and boobs!! That's done the trick for me so I don't know why I don't just stick to that!!! Instead of worrying about all these technical things that keep me awake at night!!!!!!
