Hi, I'd like to hear from others who are also trying to conceive their first baby but are new to all of this and don't understand a lot of the abbreviations! (I did see a list of abbreviations somewhere, but still struggling!) I'm 30 and my husband is 33. After getting married in January we started trying straight away but had no luck so far. Naively thought it would just happen! I don't really want to get into ovulation testing etc just yet as want to feel as relaxed as possible as apparently getting stressed doesn't help? But starting to think maybe I should as lots of others on here seem to be doing all sorts of tests?! Love to hear from others in a similar situation

I now shut the door!! Haha.
My O is due tomorrow, "apparently" so we'll see if I get any positive results!!

I think all clearblue OPKs you hold in your flow? They have the normal OPKs and the advanced ones. Boots have them at 20% off right now.

Saying that, I thought only tests that don't have a plastic case around it need to be dipped. So all other tests you can hold mid-flow. Maybe the pictures are like that because they don't want to take a picture of a stream of wee? Smile

Thanks blueamber. That's true - probably any other type of photo wouldn't be as appropriate. Think I'm going to see what happens for the next month or 2 and if no luck then try the clearblue opk's
