Oh berri try another 6 again tomorrow morning. You are still early. It's hard for them to pick up levels in diluted, non-fmu.

berri · 20/08/2012 17:38

Ah yes Blush must stop po sticks.

Keep those pom poms at the ready!

goingbananas30 · 20/08/2012 17:32

dear berri,

remember you are supposed to use the early morning urine....... breathe and try again in the morning..... FX

berri · 20/08/2012 17:17

Well my Internet cheapies just arrived and that has come up as BFN.....Confused

frustratedpants · 20/08/2012 16:42

Ooh puppy fx.

IBelieveInPink · 20/08/2012 15:56

berri yay! About time we had some good news around here! Keeping fingers all crossed it goes well for you!

PuppyMummy · 20/08/2012 15:33

frustrated I wondered that but I dare not get my hopes up. it is very very light but is exactly how I would start af.

I guess ill have to c what happens later. if its af then by tonight id expect full flow...

god this is horrible! I'm alternating between glad af is here (cd1), cross if it is here and not daring to hope its anything else.

berri · 20/08/2012 15:16

FX puppy.

Sunshine - I totally know how you feel, ttc really takes over your head doesn't it. Take care of yourself & hopefully nature will take its course.

Frustrated - yes AF isn't due till Thurs which is why I'm still rather wary. Will test again later tomorrow and see if it's a bit darker. Guess I'll have to just wait & see. Trying not to get too excited Smile

Anyone else testing soon?

frustratedpants · 20/08/2012 15:05

Implantation bleeding puppy?

Ooh berri im so excited for you. Grin fx its a sticky one. Your still a few days pre missed AF aren't you? How's that for no symptoms. I'm so jealous. In a good way of course Grin

SunshineOutdoors · 20/08/2012 14:50

Congrats berri!!!

I think I'm going to have to leave you guys for a while. Can't cope with obsessing about ttc all the time. I'm going to stop temping, delete my apps and try and forget about it.

Good luck to you all and when I feel ready again I'll be back... But hopefully none of you will be on this board as you will all be pg!

PuppyMummy · 20/08/2012 14:11

berri how exciting!

berri · 20/08/2012 14:07

Yes fmu (am living in USA at mo so a bit behind you lot!)

And it is sooo pale - I had to switch all the lights in the bedroom on to show lazy DH!

I nearly fell over when I saw it, I just glanced and didn't see it for a second as it's so faint.

PuppyMummy · 20/08/2012 14:06

ranty me me me post coming up.

af seems to be arriving 5 blooming days early. making this cycle 22 days.

last 2 have been 26. WTF is it doing. how is it going to make a baby if its all over the place.

and we dtd literally loads this cycle and the stupid reflexologist said my ovary and fallopian tube felt active and my womb open.

pah. load of pants

frustratedpants · 20/08/2012 14:01

Ooh berri did your line have colour in it? Was it fmu? Did you have to squint?

berri · 20/08/2012 13:52

Oh my gosh I have a fainter than faint line. Trying not to let myself get too excited.......hope it's a sticky one. Eek!

Lolcbcb · 20/08/2012 12:39

Well no af yet so maybe it's just nerves. May cave in before sat. Decisions decisions...

Thingymajigs · 20/08/2012 11:53

I caved even though I have no idea what point I am at after ovulation. Blush Tested when I could've been either 9dpo or 5dpo. BFN, obviously. I think I might try OPK's next month but I've been hearing conflicting information on their effectiveness.
Right, I'm going to stop thinking about TTC for the rest of the day, I'm boring myself.

SunshineOutdoors · 20/08/2012 11:47

Qazxc I'm really sorry Sad

And sorry af got you winkle

I had a neg frer yesterday morning so enjoyed myself at v then af showed up during the day. Am pissed off and feel the same about ttc as you winkle

IBelieveInPink · 20/08/2012 11:33

Morning all
qazxc so sorry to hear that. Sad

I caved. I have NO willpower. I do have a BFN though. Boo. Roll on next month!

frustratedpants · 20/08/2012 10:17

Morning ladies, who's caved?

Oh boo lolcbcb

That's a nice respectable length winkle2

Welcome sarah step away from the PO(a)Sticks for at least a week, 7-10 days to implantation, ps you're not the only one
you're an addict do you have Internet cheapies?

Lolcbcb · 20/08/2012 09:46

Morning all
I'm having a sneaky suspicion af will show today Sad
Have cramps etc. boo

Thingymajigs · 20/08/2012 09:38

I can see how people need a break from TTC, it's quite draining and I'm only in month 2.
Not sure if my cycle is 28 or 32 days long so for the second time this month I've started the one week wait. I find myself wishing the time away just so I can get a definitive answer.
Good luck to everyone else still waiting this month.
