I'm back to help all you premature testers STEP AWAY FROM THE FIRST RESPONSE!

Woweeeeeee - congratulations WLL that's wonderful news - yes, definitely let us know how you get one.

ljg, sorry for your AF showing up and loopy nice to meet you - fingers crossed it's our month this month...

Congrats WLL!!!!!! thats fantastic news! well done you...please keep in touch!!! XX.
Loopylou...lovely to meet you, so sorry for your loss...heres to a BFT very soon!The very best of luck.
Went to visit my 3 day old nephew today...OMG how lovely!.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend girlies XXX

ljg sorry AF showed up hon, how frustrating after it being late. It's horrible when it feels like our bodies are playing tricks on us. Hope you're enjoying the lovely weekend and kicking back with a glass of wine.

Well I tested Friday which was the day AF due and it was a BFP! Did another one that evening and line still there. Really happy and excited, think it is just about sinking in now. Really glad I waited this month, was great to see a positive test.

loopylou2 good luck for yur cycle, hope the 2ww doesn't drag too much for you.

Waiting is the worst part of this ttc malarkey. I'm only 3 days into my 2ww and just dying to test already! I have magically convinced myself that any baby I conceive will be sooooo special that they will immediately make their presence known by whatever means possible, including hpt. I'm nuts

This is our first month back on the ttc bandwagon after a missed mc. and for some reason this month everywhere I turn has been a pregnant lady, a baby food advert or a magazine advert for Clearblue.

But it's been very nice to read this whole thread and get some tips on how to survive the waiting game. so thanks everyone!

wish me luck xx

Hi girlies! hope all is well?...well AF arrived today only a week late!!! how much did I spend POAS!!!.
Oh well kinda glad it finally came, at least I can enjoy trying again next month .
How did you get on WLL? best of luck to you and all.
Enjoy the sunshine

Sorry AF showed up Bicnod, it's so unfair when you're late as well. Ljg - hope yours arrives soon or you get your bfp. I'll let you know how I get on this week, I'm going to wait until the weekend to test as af due Fri.

Hello WLL and BICOD...well hopefully WLL will be luckier than us this month, fingers crossed!...I still haven't got AF!!!! I'm never late! typical...spent a fortune on tests too.
BICOD, mother nature can play games for sure!!! making us late!!! ...here's to next month!...

Hi ladies - not my month, the witch got me on Easter Saturday (got all excited when AF didn't turn up on Friday). Ah well - fingers crossed for a New Year baby this month

WLL and ljg - keeping keeping fingers crossed for you both.

Hey ljg - no AF for me yet either. A little early to test as not due til Friday going by my longest cycle so far. Have to say, all I seem to be having is PMS type symptoms so not too hopeful this month.

Sorry your Af hasn't arrived yet - will you test again?

Hello!.. thanks WHOLELOTTALOVE, AF not arrived yet...bloody typical LOL.
How about you?...good luck and keep in touch

Hiya ljg - sorry for your BFN, it's a bit depressing to see isn't it? Although obviously until AF arrives, you never know - especially as you tested early. This is the evilness of early tests. Good luck for next month if AF does arrive tomorrow.

I really must check what I've written before posting!!! sorry for all mistakes...heads gone west!!! LOL

Hello WHOLELOTTALOVE and everybody1 hope all having a lovely Easter break!
Did early test yesterday(couln't resist)...and got a BFN!!! AF is due tomorrow (Eeeeyuck).
Hope everybody has better luck???...Roll on next month lol!.

Hi all, how's everyone getting on?

Bicnod and ljg - did you restest/did AF arrive? Fingers crossed it was a positive Easter weekend for you both.

I am now somewhere in the region of 8 dpo - not really sure when ov. Had said I would be really good this month but already feeling tempted to test, duh. Don't really have any pg symptoms other than sore boobs which could easily be PMS. Have noticed slightly stronger smells, but not massively so. And I'm knackered...but then I'm always knackered!

Hope everyone had nice easter.

Thanks Wholelottalove...(grin) X

Bicnod - aww, don't worry, we've all done it! I'm not due on until 9th April (going by my last cycle, although they're quite erratic) so will try and wait until AF is def late before POAS as I hate seeing BFN.

Sav - I guess wait til AF overdue (which is what we all 'know' we should be doing but don't!)

Hi Ljg - ok acronyms, as far as I know are:

DS/DD = dear son/daughter
AF = auntie flo - i.e. period
BFN = big fat negative (pregnancy test) and of course BFP = big fat positivie!

It's so easy to convince yourself you're pg - sometimes I'm with my Mum when she says it was all a lot simpler in her day...

well I think mines the usual 4 weeks but is the egg still able to be fertilised in this time?

Hi sav210...i think it really depends when you ov...I ov late in cycle, so yes you could be...? ;-)

Hi guys

Can you get pregnant by having unprotected sex in week 3 of your 4 weekly cycle, not sure when to test!

LOL...I don't know!...I'm new to this any chance you can tell me what DS DD AF BFN ect...means? I worked out the POAS I think...:-)

Thanks ljg - feel slightly better to know I'm not alone in my knobbiness

I know what you mean. I now feel like my af is on it's way.

Oh why do we do it to ourselves?!

Bicnod...you are not a knob! at least you waited that long! I am a total Knob! not due on till Tuesday, but was reading reviews on early testing, and totally convinced myself it would be a good idea to go and spend 11 quid!...suprise, suprise...it was negative!!! (like I didn't really know)...and now feel like I'm going to come on any minute.
Funny as of an hour ago I was sure I was defo pregnant...My mind is very good at playing tricks on me, or maybe I'm just losing it??? Oh well :-)

I am a total twat. I just poas. Not due until Friday and did it while DS was asleep at lunchtime (spur of the moment thing - I really shouldn't keep the pg tests in the cupboard next to the loo) - so not even first morning wee. And I'd drunk a pint of water at lunchtime. It was, of course, BFN. Why am I such a nob? Please someone kick me. Hard.

Yep, managed to restrain myself somehow. Am allowed to POAS on Friday, but if I can wait until Saturday so much the better (likely story).

I feel very pre-menstrual however, so don't think it's my month sadly

When are you allowed to crack open the pg tests WLL?

Hello Queen - how you doing?

Bicnod - noooo! Don't do it! I am solemnly promising to not POAS until AF is late this cycle. Did you manage to restrain yourself yesterday?
