Woodlands - I also have a soft spot for the poundland cheapies! Less organisation required than sourcing them on ebay, ordering them, waiting for them to arrive...sigh!

Taking - I know, right there with you. I don't even know if I've ov this month or not wahhhh but regardless def can't test for at least 10 days. Hurry up!!!

TakingTheStairs · 02/10/2012 08:55

Morning all,

All this talk of cheap tests has my money burning a hole in my pocket!
I have a twin pack of CB digital waiting at home for the right time. I wish this 2WW would hurry up!

I always get tests from the pound shop or Poundland - either two or three tests for £1, and they do the job. Apparently you can also get them on eBay for 10 for a pound.

LittleMissSnowShine · 02/10/2012 08:50

PS) Clearblue 2 pack are down to £8 (from £11) in tesco Grin

LittleMissSnowShine · 02/10/2012 08:49

Jelly - supposedly tests with pink dye are more accurate, so that would but first response ahead of clear blue. Saying that I've had a false bfp with first response before so it's kind of put me off them and i also like the fact that clear blue shows a plus sign rather than two separate lines, it's a bit clearer...

JellyCurls · 02/10/2012 08:00

thanks shiney not sure I can make it to Boots today but will try. Are first response the best or am I better getting clear blue?

shineypeacock · 02/10/2012 07:55

jelly

Boots had all tests on 3for 2 at the moment.

FX you only need the one xx

JellyCurls · 02/10/2012 07:24

I had no sticks to pee on this morning so will be tomorrow now (day AF due) for me. Recommendations on best early test to buy and anywhere for offers on? Good luck to all POAS this morning x

kNickerbockerGloryCherry · 02/10/2012 07:08

I need someone to POAS! I've got two weeks before I can. :-/

LittleMissSnowShine · 02/10/2012 07:05

Good luck ladies poas today - anyone get up early and have a result for us yet?? Fx for u!! (wish i could fast forward a couple of weeks and test today as well!!)

LittleMissSnowShine · 01/10/2012 22:08

Congrats Ella and sorry Shiney :(

Lots of news on the October express anyway!

Im.on cd20, i usually ov around cd19 but all tell tale signs hav made themselves scarce this month & because of flippin.pcos i cant just use opks to see whats going on. Shagfest continues tho and tiny bit of blood in.cm today which maybe counts as spotting so could be sign of ov maybe or maybe i.ov early and its implantation.bleeding --or maybe its none of the above. These post-mc wft cycles are so confusing!!!

shineypeacock · 01/10/2012 20:06

littlepink i have been POAS (ic) since Friday, but today foolishly spent £10 on FRER this afternoon, 3 hours later her she was waving her red shunky shite about the place!!!

Had a big hug with DH and told him be prepared for lots of shagging this month, at the monent he is looking forward to it!! Grin

fx for you all xx

JellyCurls · 01/10/2012 19:28

Sorry peacock but glad you still on the bus.

over i think lots of wet cm is good. I not had that but lots of, what only can be described as snottery cm (sorry ladies thats def tmi)

littlepinkfizz · 01/10/2012 19:16

Oh so sorry shiney but at least your still on our bus! Feckin AF is a pure bitch isn't she. Not even giving you the chance to poas by coming 2 days early. Bitch

taking sounding good!

OveranxiousUnderated · 01/10/2012 18:48

Unless I am being a bit blind I can't see my name on the last updated list (was on the one before, thanks for adding me Smile)

I haven't had any major symptoms yet, although I keep getting heartburn on and off throughout the day which isn't something I ever really get. Also sorry TMI Blush I feel constantly moist down there and seem to have quite a bit CM everyday, again not something I usually get unless I just don't notice it as much when not TTC. Has anyone else experienced this?

chookford · 01/10/2012 18:15

shiney so sorry to hear the witch showed up booooooo! But as you say you are not out for Oct just may be a bit later than first hoped! I shall keep everything crossed for you! Have a g & t for me too please!!

taking it really does sound like you may be heading for a bfp in the next few days! Soooooooo exciting!!

ella0 · 01/10/2012 17:31

ARSE FECK COCK AND SHITE!!!!! Angry Angry Angry

Bloody bitchbag AF appeared this afternoon, see it will teach me for spending £10 on bloody tests!!!!

Thought i felt strange when driving home, and low and behold her she is - 2 flipping days early to boot!! Thought it was just brown gunk (hopeful implantation bleed!) but no, big red AF after i wiped (sorry TMI)

Am staying on the bus tho, 31 days in October so headed for the back and briging up the rear!!

Having large G&T and brie with crackers to make me feel better!

Love and baby dust to you all xxxxx

ella0 · 01/10/2012 17:14

BTW I've added a photo of my tests to my profile.

ella0 · 01/10/2012 17:09

I think the pack says to dtd anytime in the next couple of days after the smiley, as though once is enough. However, I'd read on the net somewhere that the day of the smiley and the day after were recommended so did both (and the day before smiley didn't hurt either).

littlepinkfizz · 01/10/2012 17:01

Thanks for telling us all your symptoms ella. I'll be mad checking them next week! We Dtd the day we got smiley.. Do you think this is enough. I'm on cycle 3 too and would really love that BFP x
