pinkfizz Yes have to phone in tomorrow but not before 10:30

I'm hoping for a clear positive or a glimmer of something, anything so that they'll consider blood tests. The receptionist didn't know about the sensitivity of the test that's being done.

Great news nanny!! Flowers

weechops ooooh! Fx for October!

waves sounds v v hopeful!

lexi do you get your results tomorrow? X

JellyCurls · 16/10/2012 19:36

Fx weechops hope dh makes it home on time

Super news nanny Grin. As for double buggies can't recommend the mini city twin highly enough. We used it for dc1 and dc2 with a four yr age gap. Easy to push, narrow enough for getting through doors, side by side x

Congratulation nanny

Nice to see you back weechops fx for you.

chookford · 16/10/2012 18:22

Laptopgirl · 16/10/2012 18:02

LexiLoganberry · 16/10/2012 16:56

laptopgirl there's a webside www.countdowntopregnancy.com click on signs/symptoms and then how many days past ovulation you are and it gives you the 10 most common symptoms.

Laptopgirl · 16/10/2012 16:07

Thanks ladies for the replies!

Last time with my LO I had been 'trying' for 5 years and then when I did fall PG I was so shocked I forgot to note any 2ww symptoms! Which now Im on my 2ww for baby no.2 Im gutted about! So has anyone got any they look out for?? Im approx 5 days away from AF 'due' but my tummy has felt crampy and bloated for days and a few days PO I felt very odd in the mornings, almost sicky but again was a passing phase.... I forgot how much mind playing the 2 ww was / is!!!!! Loving this thread and thanks for the welcome! Nice to chat / read like minded people!

Thanks for the info on the abrev. I will be off to superdrug I think too! ;)

Hi lexi. it certainly is quite frustrating still not really knowing. This is what I have been using:

www.amazon.co.uk/Ultra-Early-Highly-Sensitive-Pregnancy/dp/B001G61MU4/ref=sr_1_8?s=drugstore&ie=UTF8&qid=1350381223&sr=1-8

Hope everyone is having a good Tuesday

LexiLoganberry · 16/10/2012 09:48

Hi waves I wondered how you'd got on. I haven't used the internet cheapies are they like the cheap internet OPK's?

Sorry your not much wiser today after testing.

wavesandsmiles · 16/10/2012 09:39

Morning all. Well, I used one of my super cheap internet sticks this morning, and not a hint of a line. Grrrr. I am now just wishing that AF would arrive and put me out of my misery. Or, of course, that I would get a +tive results. However, I really don't feel like I have any pg symptoms at all, so just playing the waiting game.

On the plus side, our new house is a little less disorganised, and more unpacked now, so hopefully we can spend more time next month having some more tries at this!

LexiLoganberry · 16/10/2012 09:39

laptopgirl sorry I didn't see your post at first.

FRER is first responce early result
FR one step is another test from there range which isn't as sensitive as the early result test.

nanny sounds like you have a similar situation to me.

LexiLoganberry · 16/10/2012 09:34

Delia sorry you got a negative, is AF overdue for you.

LexiLoganberry · 16/10/2012 09:33

Thanks granny I've taken my urine sample to the doctors but can't get the result till tomorrow.

I did do a test myself this morning and there was a very faint line, AF now 7 days late, so I do feel the line should be getting darker as the hcg increases. I shall wait and see and try not to think about it too much.

delia love your description of breasticlesGrin

deliasmithy · 16/10/2012 08:21

Dexidoo - my local superdrug

Negative for me, ah well, I just hope I get an AF asap so I can start again!

Grannyapple · 16/10/2012 07:32

Morning ladies...was tentatively joining you but I'm now moving to the November bus...on the plus side, my cycle seems to be back to normal.

lexi fx for you

Dexidoo · 16/10/2012 06:35

delia where are FRER half price? I might be planning an early POAS this weekend!

deliasmithy · 15/10/2012 22:56

After getting egged on by a work colleague I'm armed with 4 FrEr tests (half price!) This is why I need somewhere like MN, to avoid telling others.

I'm loving the word breasticles! I feel like I forgot to wear a bra whilst doing a marathon.

Littlepinkfizz I'm sorry AF came.

MadameJ · 15/10/2012 21:53

I have a sneaky feeling I will be getting off this bus at the next stop as I think AF will be here tomorrow Sad

littlepinkfizz · 15/10/2012 21:52

laptop first response and first response early response! You'll soon get used to all the abbreviations. Grin

lexi keeping all x for you and , yes, it is indeed a sad state of affairs when a girl ends up envious of sore breasticles!whi'd have thought!!

Gin( to make us sin) anyone??!

nannyl · 15/10/2012 21:32

well im going to POAS again tomorrow

3 -ve so far (last on Thursday)

Will be 5 days late by tomorrow..... no sign of AF and no signs of pg either Confused

Laptopgirl · 15/10/2012 21:17

Sorry to read about your confusing testing Lexi, what does FRER & FR mean?

LexiLoganberry · 15/10/2012 20:11

fx for you waves I spoke to the dr earlier and they have asked me to take in a urine sample and if the result is not clear for them they will do blood tests, I was Quite surprised they didn't just tell me to go away.

Hi Delia bless you and your sore boobs *pinkfizz made me Grin some times we get boob envy. I've had to stop wearing my underwired bras as to uncomfortable.

blargl and dexi* hope your 2ww fly by.
