Put on your vest/shades and grab your weapons, it's Action Hero Time.

The BESH are experts in all matters action, but specialise in taking out the local droids and sometimes Druids Wink

Cover me, I'm going in!

Statistician extraordinaire?

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 19/02/2013 14:43

Flickstar???? Are you FelicityFlick from Days of Frolicking Yore?

Embryo on board.

It was a grade 4b (on what seems to be a scale of 1c to 5a), and the embryologist was most complimentary. I also have 5 others still alive, not currently of freezing grade, but they will be cultured on till tomorrow and then reassessed.

It was ok. The BBC were filming, which was a bit off putting. Though the nurse kept them firmly away from my door.

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 19/02/2013 14:42

I think I see a line. I think.

LazyMachine · 19/02/2013 14:02

I got positives with later pees throughout the day...why keep our tassels waiting wait? Do it, do it, do it...

(And I was one of the nice girls at school!)

Good luck Frank

Blimey, a flurry of posts!

We have our contenders :

2x FRER (everywhere was out of 4 packs Angry
2x normal Superdrug
2x Superdrug digital

And I've ordered some Internet cheapies Blush

If that doesn't give me an answer, nothing will. Testing will commence at 6.30am-ish.

Just popping in to send good vibes to our lovely Norf for ET & seeing if the barries have been moved.

Frank I used a first response & got a very clear result. It was 15 days after ET though so technically 19 days post ov.

Good luck with the pee stick/not making a fountain of pee while in stirrups ladies.

I have been absent/not engaging with my fertility clinic for a number of (crap) reasons. Partly being a grump, partly being terrified, partly because it would be a really really bad time for it at work (as opposed to just being a bad time).

But have just spent a lovely weekend with my lovely favouritest little boy and maybe have decided to stop being pathetic and ring the bloody clinic.

Soooo. Pee stick update?

LazyMachine · 19/02/2013 13:19

Duh...it's been a while...I meant to type FIRST RESPONSE, not 'early'. Okay, I'm going back to bed now. But will be lurking...

EuroShagmore · 19/02/2013 13:18

Frank! OMG. The photo is tiny, but I think I can see something on the left... I'm an internet cheapie fan, so I can't advise on shop tests. I have a lovely gallery of ICs coming along now though.

Norfy I was fretting about that too. I did lots of internet research the night before! I think on a fairly empty stomach (no food to soak up the liquid) your bladder will refill in about 30 mins. I drunk 1hr-45mins before my appointment. And then ended up with my train cancelled, a ridiculous bumpy £50 taxi ride across London with me wincing at each speedbump, and then the clinic kept me waiting for an hour. The ecstasy of the wee afterwards is indescribable.

Lazy! How lovely to see you on here. Glad to hear that Lazy Boy is a boob man. :)

LazyMachine · 19/02/2013 13:14

Norfy I've always wee'd before leaving the house and then guzzled a large bottle of water on the drive in...

Have a good scanage, lovely haglet!

LazyMachine · 19/02/2013 13:11

Obviously that should have read 'Internet' cheapies (although unlike the idea of having piss-stick interns...)

LazyMachine · 19/02/2013 13:09

Silly phone - I wasn't finished...

As I was writing, although I rate the Superdrug own brand and their price, the Queen of All Piss-Sticks is the Early Response. (And interns cheapies are the Work of the Devil)

Get thee to a Boots ASAP, laydee!

LazyMachine · 19/02/2013 13:04

Ooooooooooo peestick excitement Franks! I can see a faint line on both. Download your pictures onto the CanYouSeeALine website and you'll be able to look at the photo negative, which allows you to see a line more clearly. It's what I did on the morning I got the two ridiculously faint lines last June...LazyBoy that resulted is currently frenzy-feeding on my boob.

Re. Good piss-sticks, I've always had proper early positives with Superdrug own brand.

Northey · 19/02/2013 13:02

Sorry, no idea on test types though. I always buy cheapest available. My two bfps were on pink superdrug, swiftly followed up by CB Digitals...

Northey · 19/02/2013 12:57

2pm. Am fretting over when to do my water drinking so my bladder is full enough for u/s, but not so full that I wee on them as soon as they press down (fairly dramatic, with my legs in stirrups. ..).

Casserole · 19/02/2013 12:46

I am sure I can see faint lines on both of those.

Good luck Norf

Right, nearly lunchtime so recommend me some test types please! Thankfully I have 4 chemists I can visit to stock up, so I won't look totally crazy

What time is ET Norf?

Northey · 19/02/2013 11:43

It is on frank's profile, aries. Click on her name, innit?

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 19/02/2013 11:27

What on earth is going on here? Spring Fever?

Where's the picture of the stick? I need to see it.

Northey · 19/02/2013 08:59

Remind me why you hopped off it, sink?

TWinklyLittleStar · 19/02/2013 08:58

Do tell more sinky...

SinkyMalinks · 19/02/2013 08:57

I have no stick advice to offer, as an eternal non-differ, but I have all the appropriate appendages crosses

norf, I know you're not (yet) a differ but with 7 em-Barry-os, I have high (but not irritatingly presumtuative) hopes for you.

I might be getting back on the fertility bandwagon...
