I'm a regular in conception - kind of hoping old friends will come and hair stroke me. DH and I have been ttc for 22 months. DH has high prolactin levels which makes his sperm count low. Until we see a specialist next month we've been not trying but not, not trying iykwim.
My cycle is variable but typically 25-27 days. Today is cd29. I haven't had a 28 day cycle for over a year. Internet cheapies say bfn. Must assume it's only a matter of time before the witch comes. But I feel like crap. Anyone willing to sit and wait with me?

When I wake, probably 6am. Feel a bit deflated.

What time tomorrow morning?

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/11/2011 17:17

I'll probably crack open a Boots test in the morning. If that's BFN, I will end the madness there!

Yes, I don't think you start producing hcg until after you've implanted, and then it will take a few days after for a blood test to come back positive and then at least another few days before you can get a BFP.

Oh Have ShockSad

Maybe because it wasn't FMU?

I don't know the answer for this, but if the odd bleeding was implantation, would that mean anything as to when you start producing HCG?

DizzyKipper · 02/11/2011 17:14

Sad But might've just been too soon. Are you retesting in the morning?

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/11/2011 17:13

Ok ok I tested. FR said bfn :(

It better had do - poor DS hasn't had any tea yet

scarletfingernail · 02/11/2011 17:08

Oooooh she's testing tonight?! Now going to be glued to MN until BFP announcement.

Northey, while we wait for Have's ridiculously slow DH, did anything happen after your odd 3 day period you mentioned at the weekend? Did you POAS?

DizzyKipper · 02/11/2011 17:05

antenatal thread

scarletfingernail · 02/11/2011 17:05

have I heard a rumour that you might have a BFP!

Just wanted to come and cheer you on for your testing tomorrow. How exciting.

Oh, and I also see the line. Mine was exactly like that to start with.

Purplebuns · 02/11/2011 17:04

Great course of action planned, we approve.
I need to find the antenatal thread Biscuits as I have fallen off and I have a scan tomorrow :)

Northey · 02/11/2011 17:02

You have the sticks, you have the full bladder. I really don't know WHAT you're waiting for. It would be a very sensible use of the waiting time as well.

Biscuitsandtea · 02/11/2011 17:01

Serve him right sorry!

Biscuitsandtea · 02/11/2011 17:01

Well said Northey Grin

And it would serve Have's DH if he had to buy her a new handbag for being tardy!

DizzyKipper · 02/11/2011 16:56

heehee Northey does make a good point Wink

Northey · 02/11/2011 16:55

If that man doesn't turn up soon then I am afraid you will just have to empty out your handbag and wee in that. There are crazy women depending on it!

DizzyKipper · 02/11/2011 16:54

Joins Biscuits in calling for Faith's DH to come on. Any updates Faith?

Biscuitsandtea · 02/11/2011 16:49

I can approve that course of action Smile

Come on Have's DH - the woman needs a wee!!!!!

DizzyKipper · 02/11/2011 16:42

Ok sounds good. What time are you testing tonight?

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/11/2011 16:38

Hey dizzy! Ok easy q first. Gu ramekin, always. I bought a boots twin pack - easiest shop to get to and they only offered cbd, FR and their own. So I plumped for alternatives to what I had. I'm thinking FR tonight I'm sitting in car waiting to pick up DH desperate for a wee then a boots test with fmu. Cbd if boots says bfp. Whaddya reckon? will obviously have to run this by DH!

OP posts:
Biscuitsandtea · 02/11/2011 16:34

OK, so are we (notice the use of 'we' - this is a team event now Grin) testing tonight and tomorrow morning with FMU as well?

This is exciting!

So, you've bought tests - does this mean you've finished work. What brand(s) did you buy.

Exactly what time will you be testing?

And what sort of ramekin will you be using? Grin

DizzyKipper · 02/11/2011 16:34

OMG I didn't realise there was all this commotion and excitement Faith! What time are you testing tomorrow, I'm up at 6am Grin
