I'm a regular in conception - kind of hoping old friends will come and hair stroke me. DH and I have been ttc for 22 months. DH has high prolactin levels which makes his sperm count low. Until we see a specialist next month we've been not trying but not, not trying iykwim.
My cycle is variable but typically 25-27 days. Today is cd29. I haven't had a 28 day cycle for over a year. Internet cheapies say bfn. Must assume it's only a matter of time before the witch comes. But I feel like crap. Anyone willing to sit and wait with me?

have this is just so exciting!!

I have that brand of internet cheapie test and they are not very sensitive at all.
The FR will give you an answer clearly if the cheapies are

PieMistress · 02/11/2011 14:31

You are putting my willpower to shame! I would have done another couple of tests by now! C'mon tomorrow morning already! :)

Arggghhh still hours to go until FMU!!! I can't take the tension

PieMistress · 02/11/2011 15:20

am giggling at biscuits suggestion! :) I can just imagine us all sitting at our desks clicking refresh!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/11/2011 15:50

Blimey you're all posting, I'm running round like a mad thing doing work!! Good job there's only one of me.
Today I have had minimal spotting, increased thirst - drunk 2 litres water and 3 cuppa teas and stil thirsty.
Am very worried it was an evap line and I'll look like a t**t tomorrow.
It's not willpower it's lack of access!

I have to confess I have nothing better to do Grin.

I'm pretty convinced that's not an evap line. How long had you left the test before you went back?

Aren't FR pink dye? I like that as it is much easier to rule out an evap as it's a different colour and I'm simple.

Probably a good job that you have plenty to keep you busy - I'd have gnawed away down to my knuckles!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/11/2011 16:23

Ok ok I've just bought more tests. Yes I sneakily checked FF and none of the photos of evaporation lines looked like mine. It was about half an hour though!

OMG I didn't realise there was all this commotion and excitement Faith! What time are you testing tomorrow, I'm up at 6am Grin

Biscuitsandtea · 02/11/2011 16:34

OK, so are we (notice the use of 'we' - this is a team event now Grin) testing tonight and tomorrow morning with FMU as well?

This is exciting!

So, you've bought tests - does this mean you've finished work. What brand(s) did you buy.

Exactly what time will you be testing?

And what sort of ramekin will you be using? Grin

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/11/2011 16:38

Hey dizzy! Ok easy q first. Gu ramekin, always. I bought a boots twin pack - easiest shop to get to and they only offered cbd, FR and their own. So I plumped for alternatives to what I had. I'm thinking FR tonight I'm sitting in car waiting to pick up DH desperate for a wee then a boots test with fmu. Cbd if boots says bfp. Whaddya reckon? will obviously have to run this by DH!

DizzyKipper · 02/11/2011 16:42

Ok sounds good. What time are you testing tonight?

Biscuitsandtea · 02/11/2011 16:49

I can approve that course of action Smile

Come on Have's DH - the woman needs a wee!!!!!

DizzyKipper · 02/11/2011 16:54

Joins Biscuits in calling for Faith's DH to come on. Any updates Faith?

Northey · 02/11/2011 16:55

If that man doesn't turn up soon then I am afraid you will just have to empty out your handbag and wee in that. There are crazy women depending on it!

DizzyKipper · 02/11/2011 16:56

heehee Northey does make a good point Wink

Biscuitsandtea · 02/11/2011 17:01

Well said Northey Grin

And it would serve Have's DH if he had to buy her a new handbag for being tardy!

Biscuitsandtea · 02/11/2011 17:01

Serve him right sorry!

Northey · 02/11/2011 17:02

You have the sticks, you have the full bladder. I really don't know WHAT you're waiting for. It would be a very sensible use of the waiting time as well.

Purplebuns · 02/11/2011 17:04

Great course of action planned, we approve.
I need to find the antenatal thread Biscuits as I have fallen off and I have a scan tomorrow :)

scarletfingernail · 02/11/2011 17:05

have I heard a rumour that you might have a BFP!

Just wanted to come and cheer you on for your testing tomorrow. How exciting.

Oh, and I also see the line. Mine was exactly like that to start with.

DizzyKipper · 02/11/2011 17:05

antenatal thread

Biscuitsandtea · 02/11/2011 17:07

Northey, while we wait for Have's ridiculously slow DH, did anything happen after your odd 3 day period you mentioned at the weekend? Did you POAS?
