Its up to you? i you want the fish I'd be happy to use it upon thy face sunchild or otherwise why don't you order loads of cheapy tests from ebay/amazon and wait til they arrive in 2 days? That will mean you've done something but not spent a fortune on a (imo, unreliable) early test.

Nickster I am in NW too!

youremindmeofthebabe · 01/09/2010 11:04

Shall I buy a test today people? I did do one on monday am but it was negative. I took my temp today and it was 36.617. Is that still high viv or hairy? Or more likely just a blip.. There's no way i'll be updiffed anyway cos my swi didn't really coincide with an ov 14 days ago..Sad

Oy, nikster, nowt wrong with Leeds!!Grin

Hi tam sorry you find yourself here, but it's a cool place.

I may have to admit defeat. There is no way on earth I can keep up with you guys, I thought it was fast before, and now you're all prolific! More stamina than I have Smile

Glad they've found your stuff BOA.

sunchild wait till Saturday, even if it's negative today. you'll only have to do it again then. Easier said than done, I know.

CaribouMoo · 01/09/2010 11:05

Sunchild I would never test before 12dpo personally. Are you 12dpo yet? I would also use FMU - even if that means storing it in a pot in a MrsPV stylee til you get some sticks.

Bee I would be upset at DH too. My DH called yesterday to ask whether to take tues or thurs off for our appt next week and I thought it odd that he had to ask. Now I am counting my blessings that it was even on his radar. I would still give him a row, even if he is required for a shag later. Izzy it is all a bit calculated at times, but needs must. I remember clearly a Saturday morning in May 2006 when my chart was telling me it was prime time but DH was not in the mood. I had to persuade him and we got there in the end. It was either that morning, or the next evening, that resulted in DD so i don't care if that's what needs to be done and it isn't the most romantic event.

Choccy the cheat list hasn't been compiled yet. We'll need to add all those vitamins to it when we get around to it, if not the dubious Agnus Castus! And a seperate list from Nickster of substances to grind into DH/ DP's food.

Hello BarrenB my old friend. MrsPV is right, we do miss your cheery face around these parts - please come by more often x BOA glad the results turned up in the end, what a relief.

Welcome Tam, i have used OPKs for a while too. I've seen that happen before and I assumed that my body was gearing up to OV but it didn't happpen for whatever reason. That might be a flawed explanation though. It happened to me 4 weeks after my ERPC, then the following week I had darker lines and defintely OV'd (confirmed by rise in temps)

KnitterNotTwitter · 01/09/2010 11:13

I could throw some fish fingers around if that helps....

nickstermum · 01/09/2010 11:28

sunchild77 · 01/09/2010 11:40

nickstermum · 01/09/2010 11:41

YRMOTB BOA Northern chickies WHOOP! after reading that it made me think everyone was from london. Grin

nickstermum · 01/09/2010 11:44

sunchild77 · 01/09/2010 11:45

Nickstar nah not all from London :) I Am in Edinburgh ;) Anyone further north??

sunchild77 · 01/09/2010 11:47

Thanks for the slappage Wink

nickstermum · 01/09/2010 12:00

Cheshire lass here. Age 34 so only just on the cusp of the right side of 35. How fab - now sunny i can imagine you talking with a lovely scottish accent whilst i read your post!!

Honey's I'm home!! OH MY GOD! 3 days I leave you lot and look what happens 6 pages to catch up on!!

Cas glad you came and joined us, welcome to you, BOA and Tam

Glad to see there are a few recruits to the cervical examination...Owl your comment made me laugh so much, I think that is someone else's tutorial!!

Dachs Hairy and Pretty Sorry about RDT! Let's hope this is a better cycle for you, FX.

As for me, all I can say is that if there's no bean this month, we had bloody good fun trying Grin. Only problem now is that I keep prodding my boobs in the hope they feel tender or larger!! Yes, someone get the fish!

Waves and hugs to y'all! x

KnitterNotTwitter · 01/09/2010 12:51

Can I totally change the subject and ask as stupid question. What are tightie whities?

youremindmeofthebabe · 01/09/2010 13:03

oooh, I want to know that too![dim]

youremindmeofthebabe · 01/09/2010 13:03

Me, not you, knitter!

nickstermum · 01/09/2010 13:14

i havent a clue either - THONGS?!

DachshundsRule · 01/09/2010 13:15

You lot are indeed prolific. I wish I could drop in and chat more but just don't have time!

Today was my first clinic appointment for the IUI. I was REALLY worried after everything they'd said last time about bugger all follicles, but today there were several, so FX it'll all go well.

Now have to start taking pills that will make me into a hormone crazed psychotic b (In DH's words - 'How will I tell the difference'? Angry)

Hugs to all.

Seems like much fish slappage is required so I've taken the shark and the dolphin back to the aquarium and traded them in for a job lot of giant haddock, so there's plenty to go around. mamap consider yourself slapped!

And yeah - I thought I was the only one who didn't know on the tightie whitie front, so thanks for asking the question knitter

KnitterNotTwitter · 01/09/2010 13:22

FWIW I do know what cake and wine are :)

youremindmeofthebabe · 01/09/2010 13:30

Have just got the slightest, slightest, faint, faint, faint line. Either a cp or an evap line, i think. I could see it 10 mins after peeing, on a stick that said NOT to take the result after 15 minutes. So, it's a wait until Saturday jobby for meConfused

I think we need MrsP to answer the tightie whities.

Glad your appt went well daschs-yey for several follicles Slight snort at your DH's comment, that's what mine would have said!

Tightie whities (I think) are the very white knickers that you wear as a kind of 'temptation to fate' for AF to arrive. ie. if you wear white pants, you're BOUND to come on.

It's like putting on your worst pants before going out on the pull - if you're wearing your most hideous hole-infested pair of granny belly-pants, you're bound to end up in bed with the man of your dreams.

Simples. Grin

youremindmeofthebabe · 01/09/2010 14:19

Nikstermum I was only joking! I love the Northwet too, to visitGrin. And I don't have this accent.

Freezingmyarseoff · 01/09/2010 14:22

Ah, there you all are. I go away for a few days you all move thread. I hope it's not me, I do shower every most days Grin

Had to move house over the weekend, due to building work going faster than we expected -so been a bit busy. Anyway I'll try and catch with everyone's news.
Hope you're all okay
