Haha, it will be better but will you do it weds anyway and just not tell us!

Newbie2 · 06/08/2012 20:40

I might buy a first response 6 days early. I really hope we both get BFPs even though I'm feeling really negative about mine that would be cool.

Nicola what DPO will you be on Friday? I'll only be 11DPO

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 06/08/2012 20:52

I'll be 13 DPO on Friday. And due AF on Sat if I'm on a 26 day again.

Maybe I'll do it without telling you, but I only have one cheapie left, do need to time it well!

And it would be cool to both get a BFP, but after feeling positive, I'm just not now. :-/

Lolcbcb · 06/08/2012 21:01

Fingers x for both of you.
But from what I have seen so far nic I suspect u will do it wed!
I did ov test today and it was negative. Also not managed to find anything on cb site about trial Sad

NicolaHazel · 06/08/2012 21:04

Ha ha, lol...I'm now determined not to!

And I have to remember at 5 to 6 in the morning, which can be challenging.

Purchased some Tampax today. Really hoping I needn't have bothered!

Newbie2 · 06/08/2012 21:10

Gosh that box could be sitting in your bathroom for along time!

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 06/08/2012 21:13

I'm only just finishing a box I bought 4 years ago! The joy of depo provera screwing the system!

I just didn't want to be without at the weekend if I do have AF as my sister and family are up, so haven't got time to hunt tampons down!

Newbie2 · 06/08/2012 21:17

Ahhh yes because you said you were going to wait to POAS until after you saw your mum on Sat... What happened there Grin

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 06/08/2012 21:20

I won't be seeing her for much more than ten mins, probably, as she isn't well enough...think I'll be able to not mention it in that time!

Newbie2 · 06/08/2012 21:23

Oh I'm sorry to hear that Biscuit

Has there always been a torch?? I've not noticed it before Torch

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 06/08/2012 21:27

I think the Torch is new ish.

Yeah, it's not great, but not much I can do about it, sadly :-(

DulcetMoans · 06/08/2012 21:29

It's just for Olympics I think. We were supposed to change our names to Olympic themes too.

At least with one stick you might be more tempted to wait nicola.

NicolaHazel · 06/08/2012 21:43

I have one cheapie, one Superdrug and those 3 CB ones. But I want to keep 'proper' ones for confirming, not finding out!

Newbie2 · 06/08/2012 21:45

I only have 1 cb left

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 06/08/2012 21:48

That's what eBay is invented for...you could have another 15 by Thursday!!

NicolaHazel · 07/08/2012 07:04

I'm a very bad girl...I PIATH this morning! BFN, obviously. Far too early.

So to console myself, I spent £3.45 on Amazon buying 25 more tests! :-)

Roxyjade · 07/08/2012 07:14

Morning Nicola,

£3.45, that's really cheap, Might have a look. I used to POAS all the time (till it started costing me a furtune) I haven't in 6 months now so it won't get me down when I see a BFN! AF due 11th august and CBFM did not ask for test this morning!

Newbie, the CBFM says it let's you know when you are due on, as it didn't ask for a stick this morning do I turn it on everyday still?

letsdothisthing · 07/08/2012 07:18

Guessed it wouldn't be long until someone POAS :o at least you've stocked up on some cheapies to see you through

CD6 for me so not a lot going on, not expecting to ov until CD20 so another fortnight to go!

NicolaHazel · 07/08/2012 07:20

Ooh...we will be coordinating cycles on Saturday, Roxy. Assuming I'm on a 26 day cycle and neither of us is pregnant! :-)

I wouldn't POAS much if it wasn't so cheap...I have a wedding to spend money on.

I bought 5kg of Haribo and 1.4kg of jelly beans last night! Considering personalised M&Ms too, but they rob you blind for postage. :-/

Newbie2 · 07/08/2012 07:36

Morning ladies ...wave wave wave :)

Roxy my CBFM says CD30 (don't actually really know what stupid CD I'm on) and I've been turning it on everyday. Think I stopped POAS 6 or 7 days ago now. Apparently the luteul phase is similar from women to women so I assume it might start flashing m at the weekend. Nothing to loose if you keep turning it on, I was quite relieved when it stopped asking me for sticks!

Nicola you didn't! Shock Shock Shock that deserved 3 shocked faces! Did you buy One Step 20 pack? I'm currently looking on eBay after your sound advice last night :)

Woke up this morning and realised we could be moving into our house in 2 weeks time! I suddenly feel mega unprepared! Perhaps this will give me the distraction I need to get me through the next cycle :( Sorry to be so negative actually not sorry at all lol Why hasn't the solicitor confirmed both parties have signed contracts!?!? Right, better get onto it this morning! Is it you Nicola are you my solicitor :) if so can you get a move on please :)

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 07/08/2012 08:02

Hi Newbie...they are One Step, but 25 tests. I just bought from Amazon, though they sell on eBay too. :-)

Got that dragging, pre-AF feel today. Hope my cycle isn't going to get shorter.

And no, sadly, I'd be speeding it along for you if it were me! Fx for good news for you soon. :-)

Newbie2 · 07/08/2012 08:13

Urrrrrghhh one of my mobile Apps says I am 1 day late because it is still set to the time I got my cb smiley...the week before I got my peak on CBFM. This is not helping my POAS urge!

Nicola are you putting your sweeties in little favor bags? I loved favor stage!! I made 100 cake pops...seriously time consuming and probably worked out to be just as expensive after buying moulds and cake ingredients.

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 07/08/2012 08:39

Some are going in plastic pigs and dinosaurs for the favours at the wedding breakfast, some are going into bowls at the evening reception.

We only have 31 at the breakfast, so not too bad.

Ignore the app!!

DulcetMoans · 07/08/2012 09:45

Yeah, ignore the app newbie, it doesn't know anything. It's just doing a best guess. Mine said I wasn't on a fertile day when I ov'd this cycle.

Right so, DTD cd7, cd11, cd13, cd14 and cd16 with smiley on cd14 (and a theory that I might have begun ov on cd13). I think I have covered it as much as I can. I will now officially consider myself into the 2ww waiting for the 18th (or there abouts!)

Knew you'd crack nicola! haha. At least you have more tests coming to look forward too. And short cycles are good, aren't they? Means you can get onto the next one quickly.
