Bunch that's fantastic! Make sure you jump your OH at least 3 times a day! I want to see you breaking the pissy sticks anonymous rules next month!!

I will attempt to drag myself out of bed at 6am tomorrow to do an early test just for you! Wink

Runner05 · 17/11/2015 15:27

Err I've probably taken 5 or 6 tests now oops but in my defence they have all been a bit ambiguous Wink

This line does look blue but I am a bit concerned that maybe it's evap as it didn't develop until I took it out of the housing but it was there as soon as it was out so maybe I jumped the gun cracking the test open.

Join me in the repeated testing Betgamot you know you want to Grin

BunchOfBobs · 17/11/2015 15:23

Haha Runner.
You are breaking all your own rules!!

The day I got my evap line I did three tests. I understand the obsession. I'm holding out huge hope for you due to your symptoms. FX
Do an early test to appease my night shift brain before going to sleep. I'll be headed to slumber land by 7.30am I hope to see a line then Wink

I'm feeling slightly hopeful that I may have a chance in December. Apps are saying AF will come a week earlier than I thought meaning I can get some swimmers in place a few days before the fertile window. I can only hope!

BergamotMouse · 17/11/2015 15:17

Eek!! I can definitely see a line runner!! And if it was in the time limit I'd say it's looking good!!

How many have you done now? I might go take no 5 when I get home just to see what's happening and hope I get a result that convinces DH. I feel sick today - could still be in my head though.

Pissy sticks anonymous step 15: do not say that you will not do another test and then do one anyway promising yourself that if it's BFN you won't tell anyone.

I had a rubbish clear blue lying around... I thought I'd use it to ease my pissy stick addiction... The attached photo is with 10 minutes, I cracked the test open because why the hell not and found this rather nice line. Not convinced it isn't evap, guess I'll find out tomorrow.

Photo hasn't been edited at all!

Aww Bunch, just not fair!!! I want us all upduffed by the end of the year Sad

I'm crossing my legs and leaving the FRER untouched until morning. I've been reading articles all afternoon trying to work out whether pink lines appearing late is usually upduffed or not... Seems that everyone has an opinion on the subject but the fact I've been seeing really faint lines that have got darker seems to be a positive. 12dpo tomorrow so we'll see.

Hello new ladies Grin welcome to the boat!

BunchOfBobs · 17/11/2015 14:30

Yay new thread. lovi f the title and pics Starky!**

Hi all.. Can I join?

I had my last pill 2 weeks ago, I've had a light AF since then... Keep getting cramps though? Not quite sure what's going on.

We are TTC straight away.. No hanging about for us. My fertile window opens on Thurs so lots of DTD to be expected over the next week! Excited but also nervous :-s

Runner05 · 17/11/2015 14:02

Hi Sunny

StarkyTheDirewolf · 17/11/2015 13:48

Can I join? Hi all. Also ttc (or rather, not preventing) no 1. Weren't supposed to try til April (woops) but lost luggage meant no condoms on the honeymoon... And a conversation about "not preventing" ... Don't want to officially say trying so as not to scare the hubby but he's happy if it happens. Slight snag in the plan is that iv only had one period since stopping the pill 4 months ago, and don't think iv OV'd at all... So will just have to wait and see. Xx

shelbTa · 17/11/2015 13:42

Place marking!

BergamotMouse · 17/11/2015 13:36

Marking my place. Haha, I laugh that my plan was to start TTC at Christmas!! That changed quickly under this group's influence.

Love the pics - so true!
