Tww starts tomorrow!

Sounds like it could be an implantation bleed girls! And bird table that is surely too early to test?! There may still be hope xx

Hey Emma and bird table, I'm the same. I'm on 9/10 dpo..af not due for a week, for the last four days I've been having some browny didcharge, was only a tiny amount but today is a bit more. Af never starts this way, no other symptoms of a for otherwise! What is my body doing to me!!

Yeah I'm ok thanks blank! Are you doing ok? I had that weird spotting yesterday and thought it was AF early but no. Gone again! I'm not particularly worried right now, I'm sure AF will show up tomorrow but it's just a bit annoying to have all these random things go on with your own body and not really know what they are.

Aw I hope everyone else is having a better time understanding their body! Woke up this morning with what definitely looked like the start of a period (not hundreds but enough to make you think yup this time tomrrow) but it's since stopped. This morning I had accepted that af was coming but now I can't help but hope, even if it is really unrealistic. Thing is af isn't due for at least another week. Sometimes hate being a girl xx

Ah, ok, I've had those on a couple of opks. Thanks Redbunny. You ok?

I had some evap lines last month on internet cheap strips. It was like where the urine went over the area that shows up if positive and when it dries that area is sort of... "Highlighted" by it. But evap lines are not meant to be the correct colour. Mine were kind of grey on blue dye tests. And I think they are way more common on blue dye tests and after the time limit is up.

Fruity, I feel a little like yourself in that I'm going to test day after AF is due. If there's going to be two lines, I want it to be two clear lines...not wondering if it's a second line or not! I was (stupidly!) doing some google imaging of pregnancy tests the day after AF is due and the lines are so much clearer than a few days before.

Can someone please remind me what an evap line is? I googled it, but explanations aren't very clear!

It's not over till AF comes and I've read so many stories of negatives for ages then BFP comes through eventually.

Fruityb I totally understand. I've felt CRAP all day after my bfn this morning. Xx

I'm like the zen master lol! Feel like Manny in black books when he eats the little book of calm.

I'm dying to test but want to hold out and make sure the hormones are in there. A BFN would dent my confidence something rotten!

Angels I think I stopped the pill about 4 weeks ago - can't quite remember, just decided not to start a new pack. You can see how good I am at casual trying - I'm on here!

I've just been reading back on the last few pages and fruity whilst I am also in awe of your patience, I can totally understand what you mean about not testing, hope is a wonderful thing!

Claire I don't think you can get a false positive, and I think evap lines wouldn't show in 10 mins. Fingers crossed for you.

I can't do casual trying-I wish I could!! It's all or nothing with me! I wish I could relax about it!

Hey Terrys :)

When did you come off the pill? I'm rubbish at casual trying!

Xx

Hi all, I've been lurking for a few days and thinking about joining you. And here I am. I have a DS (5.5) and a DD (2.5) and DH and I have just agreed that we would like to try for a third.

DS was an unexpected surprise as we weren't trying. I charted for DD using Fertility Friend and it took about 5 months (including an early MC). I charted then by taking my temp, OPK's, checking that lovely CM and by checking my cervix. This time I want to have a couple of months of casually trying, if there is such a thing (basically not setting an alarm at 6.30 every morning to take my temp!) before my inner control freak takes over.

I still haven't had an AF since coming off the pill so waiting for that to see if I can see what my cycles are.

So hello :)

Ahh, I know, I know. But the thing is I HATE being centre of attention and they'll all be asking why I'm not drinking. Plus it's not much fun being sober while everyone else is drunk.

Superdrug always seem to have offers on! Only problem is I've pretty much wiped out my main account putting everything into savings in the event that we'd need a new car or a second car for DP (fourth baby!). So I'm really having to cut back on unnecessary spending!

And I totally agree about the expense, they are really expensive after a while! Super drug are buy one get one half price at the moment, though...

Angels personally I would hold off alcohol for a bit longer just to double check! False negatives are much more common than false positives!

I agree that dtd every 2 days is better. Plus less tiring!!

Girls, a dilemma. As I said I got a bfn this morning on an Internet cheapie. I've since read the reviews on amazon for said pregnancy test and they're about 50/50 - with half the reviewers saying how awful they are!

I don't know how many dpo I am but if the cycle was just like it was on the pill then around 12dpo.

I don't know whether to just accept I'm not pregnant. I'm going to do another test on Saturday before I go drinking just in case, but what if the test is wrong?

Love love love Superdrug tests but don't want to spend MORE money on tests. Feel really down and rubbish.

Self indulgent, sorry!

Couldn't even!

I don't know how you can test beforehand that would drive me even more mental! I'm still late but going to a week late before I test. I could do it earlier!

pinpan your competitive Non-POAS spirit is the ultimate support group ethos!

Newbie I read that every two days is better as his 'product' will be better if he has a chance to refresh himself haha. I also read that you should be dtd in the 6 day run up period and also the day after OV. I am a first timer though so others may have better advice!

Sorry to hear you think AF is due.. it aint over til the fat lady flows (??) so keep the faith!

Another BFN today, grrrrrrr! Due AF on Friday and have all the symptoms of her impending arrival. Can I ask everyone a maybe TMI question? If you are using OPK's do you only DTD on the smiley face days or do you DTD for the 6 days you are fertile and not just on the smiley face days? Oh yes, and is it better to DTD every other day or every day of the 6 fertile days? Phew.....told you it may be TMI but am reading all sorts of conflicting advice so thought it best just to ask this fabulous board :) xx
