Morning all.

lol, when's af due?

kNic try not to scratch them whilst on public transport. It doesn't make people feel too comfortable speaking from experience

DulcetMoans · 21/09/2012 07:58

I just got a smiley but not convinced again. This happened last month!

DulcetMoans · 21/09/2012 08:46

I took a photo of the stick on my phone to show what happens when I get these early smileys, any idea how to get it on here?! Without accidentally posting to Facebook!

peardrop2 · 21/09/2012 09:12

Dulcet save the photo on your desktop of your computer, go to my profiile on mumsnet and upload photo

Dulcet, Nic, I didn't buy a single wedding magazine. I did read Offbeat Bride online obsessively though and in the early stages went on Pinterest.

Yeah, I'm seeing my mum this week as well so she'll probably be telling me who's pregnant, and reminding us she wants to be a granny. She thinks we're 'not ready yet' - I think I'd find it worse if she were following my every up and down on trying.

I don't know Dulcet about the photo - are you in the mobile browser version or the app? I can look on the browser one to try to help but I don't have the app as I don't have an iphone.

Still in pursuit of sperm, last night and will again tonight. It can sort of put you off when you find yourself thinking half way through whether you should change position so the sperm get deposited deeper!

peardrop2 · 21/09/2012 10:37

I have to admit I brought a lot of magazines :-) I don't regret it because I really enjoyed looking at all the pictures and dreaming!! It's expensive for sure but hey you only get to do it once :-) I don't think I would buy lots of baby magazines as reading all the stories would scare me!!

Rod for my own back...I'm getting sex tonight too :-) He's taken everything on board and Conceive Plus and lots of shagging will now happen. Still about 11 days from OV, so hope we don't tire!

Best your mum doesn't know Tal, I agree!

DulcetMoans · 21/09/2012 12:04

I might have to wait til I get home.

Only got mag as I was on a train last weekend so thought it would be nice. Taken me this long to get through it though. Many adverts!!

We all bonking tonight then? Haha!!

kNickerbockerGloryCherry · 21/09/2012 12:14

I've been told I am and that it is my fault. Which I suppose it is!

I read a magazine in New Zealand last Christmas, but not over here. Some ideas are just too expensive.

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 21/09/2012 16:12

Hi ladies, not been on for a couple of days, been trying not to obsess this month, it's not really been working. In the last 10days, I have had 7 pregnancy announcements - 2 of those are good friends. Finding it very very hard.
And I thought of get a peak in monitor 2day & I haven't - it's nearly pushed me over the edge!!!

But on the plus side - last weekend dh and I went on all the rides at a fun fair - just because we could!! Lol!!

Pear - glad your scan went ok!!

Whose poas next?! Good luck!!!

peardrop2 · 21/09/2012 16:29

Raspberries sorry to hear you've had a tough couple of days Thanks and Wine! Really pleased you enjoyed yourself with DH last weekend, that's how it should be :-) I believe we have some POAS action going on tomorrow morning from Block and l ;-)

Hmm when I say I ...I mean lets or is it lol I'm confused :-/

OP posts:
kNickerbockerGloryCherry · 21/09/2012 17:48

I think it is Lol, Peardrop :-)

Sorry you're having a shit time, Raspberries. Having fun together is important. If you're relaxed you're more likely to conceive.

DulcetMoans · 21/09/2012 18:14

Right, I have put the picture up! This is similar to what it looked like last month. What do we think, false smiley??

letskiwithisthing · 21/09/2012 18:32

It's not me sadly, wish it was though - beats waiting for a smiley! Another night of rose wine and dtd later, lovely Grin

letskiwithisthing · 21/09/2012 18:36

Sorry dulcet, I can't see it on the iPad - sure someone will come along soon!

kNickerbockerGloryCherry · 21/09/2012 18:48

Looks false to me, Dulcet...I think your stick's broken.

DulcetMoans · 21/09/2012 18:53

It almost doesn't matter as we will DTD anyway, just weird I got an early one last month and now this month.

Pizza and DTD here, but similar lets!

Lolcbcblemonlime · 21/09/2012 19:03

Af due tomorrow and I will test sun if not here by then.
Have very tingly boobs and have peed about 6 times today. If I'm not pg I might have cystitis!

peardrop2 · 21/09/2012 23:45

Dulcet sorry for the late reply but I don't understand why you think it's a false? My smileys looked similar. I don't think it's a false. What's making you think this?

OP posts:
kNickerbockerGloryCherry · 22/09/2012 00:28

I couldn't see a second line on it, Peardrop...is it my screen size on my phone?

I've decided I really like CP...think H2B does too :-) Mentioned excitement goo to him. He approves of the term! Really gonna go for EOD this month, with ED around smiley time. Fx for a result from it!

peardrop2 · 22/09/2012 06:18

Sorry for the late reply I was a bit off yesterday with this stupid chronic constipation again. TMI alert - ended up doing 9 large no2s before bed, when I had only just done 1 large no2 in the afternoon! I really don't know where all these no2s are coming from!! Anyway, back to smileys. So, when I emailed Clue Blue Dr a few weeks ago to ask why the smiley stick looks so different to other OpK sticks ie smudged and one faint line or sometimes 1 faint line or 1 dark line and smudge (similar to what Dulcet is showing us) they replied saying:

'The Clearblue digital sticks read differently to other high street brands that you have mentioned because the test triggers an action rather then two clear lines. We do not recommend that customers look at the lines for information as that part of the product is not to be used as an indication to whether the LH surge has been detected or not. It is important that you follow the instructions and wait to see a smiley face each month'

So I guess what they're saying is don't tamper with the stick as the stick is there to determine a smiley face or not, not to be read as lines! Trust us girls to try and be all technical and read the stick results too :-) if in doubt Dulcet you could always email Clearblue your picture? It's pretty easy to contact them on their website. You will just need your product barcode to qualify.

Nicola love that you have taken on my term :-) and that you're a new convert to CP! ;-)

lol good luck for Sunday! Report back soon!!

Block any news?????

My dh says last night " I've been doing some research & I think we should use cp!!" I didn't have the heart to tell him I knew about it already!!! He was so very pleased with himself, I think he saw it when be brought the wellman conception pills on amazon and then it says other cuustomers brought ......!!!

Good luck for 2moro Lol!! Fx for u.

Now off to poas to see if today is peak day!!

Thundercatsarego · 22/09/2012 08:06

I am very impressed with these supportive DHs, ladies. That's a bit more like it! would never have got that sort of enthusiasm from mine!
