Newbies very welcome provided they meet the entrance criteria (TTC #1, over 30, TTC for 3+months, must have a special pot, NO instadiffers) and bring a bouquet of sausages when they join!

I was ok for a while, then I changed the channel on tv and call the midwife came on and I became a bit of a wreck. then I had to go out in the sleet to get firewood in and the fire nearly went out. so today isn't particularly good. I should be doing housework before dh comes home at 4 and I've got as far as washing some clothes and opening a bar of chocolate.

Alex well done you! 11DPO isn't too early (not like my 7dpo) so don't worry too much!
barking any news? (just typed your name as baring, maybe because of all the talk of stripping last night Grin)

Bootiful chart Barking I am admiring the rising curve with a degree of envy!
Liking the guest Irish smiley today. I guess we could all use a bit of this Shamrock

Thanks cherry I think because I've had so much trouble getting my body to ovulate and it looked like it finally did on clomid, I kind of wanted to know either way so gave in to early testing! However time is now standing still! Wink

tally are you ok? I'm trying to read back and find out what's going on as I haven't been on this thread long.

cherrycoconut · 17/03/2013 14:19

OMG Alex Congrats... I think! So many lines, so many maybe's! Can't even imagine the emotions that go with that. I think I'm with Bunny and would rather leave it as long as possible!

Alexandra6 · 17/03/2013 13:37

More early testing going on here! Tested at 6am this morning with first response, a very faint line developed! Had no other tests so had to wait until 10am when Boots FINALLY opened and did a Boots own and a clear blue. The boots own said negative but then the clear blue said 'pregnant 1-2'! BFP!!! I'm only 11dpo though, too early to get excited?!?

merkin really made me laugh about you being like the twits!

Tallyra · 17/03/2013 13:04

Probably not for at least a month. I'll definitely have an idea either way by then though!

Thundercatsarego · 17/03/2013 12:51

That sounds like a good idea. I'm sorry it's been a confusing time for you. You've got an appointment coming up though eh? Hope that can give you some answers.

Tallyra · 17/03/2013 12:48

Yes, I think so. I don't know anything for certain so I'm just going to carry on as normal and just hope everything goes back to normal soon I think.

Thundercatsarego · 17/03/2013 12:27

Hmm very confusing.

Are you ok?

Tallyra · 17/03/2013 12:23

No, hpt was just after af started. I don't even know why I did it.

SidneyBristow · 17/03/2013 12:12

Oh goodness just catching up and seems like a lot has happened! Am keeping all fingers & toes crossed that lines get darker & AF stays away...

Thundercatsarego · 17/03/2013 12:00

Sounds very odd doesn't it? Did you do a hpt before af?

Tallyra · 17/03/2013 11:54

well I thought af had finished but I am still spotting...

...but maybe it was worth it, much darker line on this test that this mornings ones. Deep breath, feeling a tiny bit better!

Grin merk, that's hilarious.

And, what was the result?

CatsCantFlyFast · 17/03/2013 11:48

Confession to make, I have just used the actual toothbrush holder as a pee pot Shock my pot has disappeared from the loo, I decided I needed to pee on another stick and was caught short so to speak. I have rinsed it with bleach and I don't care as my toothbrush isn't in that pot ew but needs must and serves him right for moving my pot. Oh god we are like the twits!

Thundercatsarego · 17/03/2013 11:45

Hey tall have you had any more spotting or bleeding?

Do you think it might have been a chem?

Tallyra · 17/03/2013 11:41

It has occurred to me that I could just be having a very early miscarriage. We'll see if tests improve in a few days I suppose.

ILoveMyCats · 17/03/2013 10:25

Morning berries, thinking of you all & hoping for the best Shamrock

Pipbin · 17/03/2013 10:14

Oh Merkin, I hope this bean gets a bit more comfy and sticks around.
And although it is no good for you, and sounds rather like rubbing your nose in it, it is a message to us all about testing too early.
Back in the days before such sensitive tests you wouldn't know until after AF was late. When is AF due? How many DPO are you?

happylass · 17/03/2013 10:13

Uncertain times in camp Elderberry! Think of everyone who's going through it Shamrock

Barking my temps don't drop until after AF has arrived either. So annoying. Temp actually went up this morning even though I know she's on her way. Humph!

Bunnygirlie · 17/03/2013 10:10

I'm disappointed enough when AF arrives, having a bfn must be horrid Confused

thunder what didn't he buy!!! He even managed to win the crappest prize in the raffle!

Ooooh barking ............

Thundercatsarego · 17/03/2013 09:55

NC here, just checking in.

Arse merk, sorry you're having to deal with this worry and fx those lines stay.

barking I'm thinking this could be your month- fingers very much crossed!

bunny what did he buy?
