Sad Well AFs made an appearance then. I'm out for August ladies. Better luck to those still hanging in there!

EDD? 21st April. If it sticks (crossing everything madly, and lurking on the PG after MC thread mostly where I don't give everyone a total downer by worrying all the time that this one'll bugger off too!)

I bought a twin-pack of CB digis and one of FR. If AF doesn't show up tomorrow I'll try one of the FR ones; if I get a BFP with that I'll try one of the CB digis. If AF shows up on time, or the FR shows a BFN, I'll save the other tests for next month's round of trying again I think.

I started on the decaff before the mc (so that clearly didn't work!), but I'm back on it now. Got used to the taste after about week. Would love some decaf Earl Grey, so May treat myself to a look for that if I make this one to 8 weeks. Being very anxious all the time, which surprised me, but the old timers on the PG after MC thread are well used to it and have lots of advice. Surprisingly pissy and grumpy rrather than joyous - don't want to tempt fate which hasn't stopped me buying a nice Mamas and Papas blanket

Keden best of luck for Saturday, until AF comes you're not out...

Keden · 15/08/2013 02:52

Hello Ladies,

POAS today (14 DPO and AF due) and I got a BFN :-/

However, AF still hasn't shown yet. So will test again Saturday.

Arkady - don't give up yet! :)

snoozysleeper · 15/08/2013 02:48

I'm sorry to hear that arkady, do test again on Friday and best of luck for it !

ArkadyRose · 15/08/2013 00:34

Congrats tea!

Pretty certain now it was an evap line. Tested again this morning and it was a definite bfn. AF is due on Friday, so I guess this month just wasn't a happener. I'll test again on Friday, but I'm expecting a bfn and AF on time. Ah well. Maybe next month. Sad

snoozysleeper · 13/08/2013 18:18

Congratulations tea1sugar !!! And good luck keden

Keden · 13/08/2013 17:25

Congratulations Tea1Sugar!!!

I am testing tomorrow - can't wait!

I bought the ClearBlue Digital (2pck) and they are really expensive! So it's been a lifesaver in keeping me from testing too early :-b

Hmm today was period day 1 (sadly)... but I didn't know that when I woke up, so I didn't chart... will start tomorrow then!

anyway, I've finished my 2WW now... i'll be back next month!

TeaAndANatter · 13/08/2013 15:11

From period day 1 (which means that my period day 1 is charted on the end of my last chart, and the start of my next, as I'm not sure in the morning when I take the temp if the period will arrive that day or not, iyswim)

snoozysleeper · 13/08/2013 09:15

ginger I'm not doing this but from what I've read you start on cycle day 1 i.e. when your period starts

Gingerandcocoa · 13/08/2013 09:02

Ladies, quick question. When are you supposed to chart charting your bbt? When your period begins or after it ends?

ItalianWiking84 · 13/08/2013 08:08

LittleMissPear what works for me is that my sticks say only FMU, so when I get up I go straight for the bathroom, pee, and then thats it for me that day. Because no reason to waist a stick, when it clearly says FMU. I know it sounds stupid, but it does work :)

snoozysleeper · 12/08/2013 20:26

Other alternative is to test early Hmm

snoozysleeper · 12/08/2013 20:24

Hi littlemiss welcome, no real tips for distraction, I've found it really difficult and I'm on first cycle.... Your AF is due 2 days after me ... But I'm away from dh when AF due so might test around your AF date instead because I want him to be around, of course assuming the witch hasn't got me by then

TeaAndANatter · 12/08/2013 20:01

Come on in! No tips from me, other than frenetic mumsnettery, but welcome anyway.

LittleMissPear · 12/08/2013 15:58

Hi everyone, can I join u? I'm half way through the 2ww, AF due Tuesday 20th Aug. it feels like forever away Smile it's all I can think about- not much work getting done today!
Any tips for distracting myself for the next week?

snoozysleeper · 12/08/2013 08:27

Ooh good luck for Tuesday liquid

I've got to wait til Sunday, I'm not suited to this waiting business ... Confused
