It's fairly light but bright red. I haven't been up to any activities just yet, as dh has been at work loads (was planning to start tomorrow!) I ov around cd12 but last month was 9. I'm showing low fertility on the cb digi today though.

Sorry to be overly dramatic before Blush

HampshireBlues · 23/05/2014 15:33

Merkin thanks for the reassurance. I've been trying to upload a picture all day from the phone but it wont accept it so fingers crossed this one works!

God, that looks really pathetic on here!

funkymonk · 23/05/2014 16:07

I would say that's a perfectly decent line and congrats are in order! I've been pregnant twice and they look just like mine did around 14dpo. Like merk says as well all tests have different amounts of dye. Well done HB and Mr HB!!!

That's a line hb, and listen to proff merk, a line is a line is a line. Or it's not a line. But if it's a line it's a line, you can't be half pregnant Grin.

beaky did you ask the FC about your random bleeding? Did they offer any helpful explanation prepares to be pleasantly surprised if the answer is yes
And you weren't being overly dramatic, it's bloody frustrating when your cycles don't do what they're supposed to do and you can't control what's happening. And it's all hormone related, so you have less control over how you feel emotionally about it all as well, just to add to the frustration!!

FeatherFeather11 · 23/05/2014 17:51

Congrats are in order hb! It's def a line!

beaky I've had that before and then it stopped. Asked the FC at the time and they said it was probably a 'bit extra' that needed to come out. I'm sorry you're feeling crappy. Hope you feel more positive soon.

Running for a train now. Will check in later x

beakybeak · 23/05/2014 17:55

HB that looks like a good line to me! What's the plan for tomorrow? Will you maybe do a frer or something?

Barking I told them about my spotting but they didn't really say much about that. I mentioned that they found a cyst in feb too but she said if it was still there on my scan they can look into it. They are fairly laid back about everything which is nice at the time but then after I stress. Thanks though I felt like I was being ridiculous before. Also had two new baby announcements today which I don't think have helped.

beakybeak · 23/05/2014 17:58

X post Feather that's weird - stupid extra bits!! Thanks though.

RevoltingPeasant · 23/05/2014 19:16

HB I can see a line Grin. I say leave it till Sun and then test again and for goodness sake post a pic here so we can all ooh and ahh

Bushy how are you now?

Barking are they taking your LP issues into account for your OTD or is it 10 days away?

Just twiddling thumbs here, think AF is coming but no actual bleeding yet and 11dpo so we shall see.....

barkingtreefrog · 23/05/2014 19:23

rp no, it's still 10 days away. If the progesterone doesn't delay AF then I'll know in 4 days if it's not worked. But if AF hasn't arrived I'll have no idea whether it's because of the progesterone or an upduffment....

lumen · 23/05/2014 19:59

chloe still waiting to hear how your follies were doing on your scan earlier?

I am having the journey from hell on the way to visit parents for the weekend. I am half way which should have taken 2 hours but has taken 4. So now pulled in at side of road to sniff drugs, wait 10 mins to ensure I don't sneeze and have to repeat (like this morning)

hb can't see pics on phone app but congrats if you have a line and please share next test so we can all be excited and happy berries Grin

tigerdog · 23/05/2014 20:20

....and relaaaaaax! Am very glad that day is over! Am aching all over, not sure why - I haven't done any strenous exercise this week.

Have a great hen do happy cocktails sound ace!

bushy hope you have a good weekend camping - it isn't really the weather for it though! Bloody rain. Still keeping everything crossed for a positive outcome for you, it must be such a nightmare to not know exactly where you stand. Just try and enjoy your weekend.

beaky hope you're feeling a bit better. It is even more frustrating this ttc business when it feels like your body is turning against you and behaving strangely.

hb some tentative excitment on your behalf, sending lots of positive
vibes for a bfp!

funky you did make me chuckle with your polite description of 'activities'! Hope you're feeling better after the arrival of af.

lumen hope your journey is improving.

Absolutely shattered, need to get my shiz together as leaving at 9am tomorrow to go to a wedding. No idea what I am going to wear either now that the weather is going to be pants!

RevoltingPeasant · 23/05/2014 21:22

Argh having massive trouble switching off today. Difficult day-long meeting....and then my regular aerobics and Pilates teacher is away so my after work aerobics class wasn't as good as normal cos the sub instructor was a bit shit.

Am fairly sure The Witch will be here Sunday, as I think my longest LP so far is 12 days and tomorrow is 12dpo.......

On the plus side am having my hair done tomorrow and then painting the utility room which I actually really enjoy, weirdly.

beakybeak · 23/05/2014 21:48

RP do you fancy poas for us in the morn?! Fx for you! Also feel free to come and paint my house! I hate painting and am rubbish at it.

Lumen what a rubbish journey! Hope you got there ok.

Hope it stops raining for the wedding Tiger enjoy anyway!

Hope everyone is enjoying their Friday. I had a little breakdown on dh earlier and feel a bit better now. Thanks for all of the berry support. Wine Thanks

beakybeak · 23/05/2014 21:51

Nolly in your manifesto can you also ban people from using exclamation marks when giving bad news - such an awful thing to see, especially when someone has died Confused

RevoltingPeasant · 23/05/2014 21:59

Nah don't have any tests in house. Will paint for you though!

Beaky who used exclamation marks in a message like that? Awful....

beakybeak · 23/05/2014 22:42

There was one person on Facebook last week who said something along the lines of "just said bye to gran!!! RIP!!! We will miss you!!" I've seen it quite a bit on fb and twitter and just think it is the most distasteful thing ever.

nolly3 · 23/05/2014 23:15

That is pretty bad beaky. Very tasteless. Death.penalty or just public naming.and.shaming? You are my closest advisors Smile

Hope you're feeling a bit better this eve Wine

And feather! So busy so stressed! Poor you

greatbigbushybeard · 24/05/2014 07:09

Morning berries! Ooh hb that's the same type of test I was given to test on and also got faint line. When I phoned to say they said they'd had lots of other people saying the same.really hoping for you, the waiting is shit though!!

I've just managed to drag my hb from the deep to watch the stick change colour. Thus time on a clear blue, it's a line! See pic:

We've said we'll leave it til back from camping on Monday so we can enjoy w/e. I might even have a low alcohol beer. We were with friends last night and the whole what are you going to drink q came up so I pretended to have a rum and coke but really just a coke!! Any advice on the alcohol thing? Know my friends will sniff it out & not ready to tell anyone what's going on.

Am starving now and want to pack but dh has gone back to bed, to enjoy it whilst he can. Better go for a snuggle to make up for early morning wKe up call.
