cups - hope the scan went well and you are now having a lovely relax

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 20/03/2015 18:37

Hi scan went great thanks. Baby pretty much slept through it but we got some great photos. I had a little cry at watching him swallow. Everything looked fine and he was head down and my anterior placenta is still high up so no problems thank god. I'll try to attach a photo.

Runningupthathill82 · 22/03/2015 06:49

hinky - I see it! Congratulations!!

Runningupthathill82 · 22/03/2015 07:25

Also, as an aside, does anyone else ever get the urge to punch in the smug face of the Ovia app? Grrrrr.

Runningupthathill82 · 22/03/2015 07:43

Okay, ignore my last post...do you see what I see??

Differood!

Runningupthathill82 · 22/03/2015 09:44

Well I thought so - hoped so - so ran out and bought some "proper" tests but they're coming up negative.
Now I don't know what to think.

Pastamancer · 22/03/2015 09:46

Which proper tests did you use?

Runningupthathill82 · 22/03/2015 09:49

Sainsburys own brand, four quid for two. Was the only place open early on a sunday! May go out and get a big gun later if anyone can recommend?
these are now my lines from today. The IC was the first wee of the day...

Gobbolinothewitchscat · 22/03/2015 09:55

That is a line too running!! I don't think sainsbos are very sensitive from what I have read. Also, did you use FMU?

Is there anywhere you could get a FRER from? If you didn't wee from now til about 2, then I think you could test with that

Pastamancer · 22/03/2015 09:57

Get a FRER, blue line tests can be funny for some reason and you are clearly diffed if an IC says so.

Runningupthathill82 · 22/03/2015 09:59

I can get a FRER when Boots opens at 11am... Wait til 2pm for a wee though, you think? I have drunk a LOT OF tea today in nervousness.
Am blaming said tea overload for these Sainsburys lies!

Pastamancer · 22/03/2015 10:05

Get a twin pack just in case and never throw away FMU that has given you a BFP before using it for a proper test

Gobbolinothewitchscat · 22/03/2015 10:09

When was the last time you wee-ed? Have you kept that wee? If so, do an IC now to test how strong it is.

Gobbolinothewitchscat · 22/03/2015 10:10

Also - stop drinking now. Il you need ginge tested wee.

Gobbolinothewitchscat · 22/03/2015 10:11

Jesus. Not ginge tested. concentrated wee.

Runningupthathill82 · 22/03/2015 10:16

Had a wee about 20 mins ago. May I finish my cup of tea, Gobbo? Or do I chuck it and how for superconcentrated wee in a few hours time? Argh!

Never occured to me to keep my morning wee. I am an IDIOT. I need to confirm this bfp, dammit! Doesn't seem at all real...

Runningupthathill82 · 22/03/2015 10:17

And no, I didn't keep the last wee, gobbo - again, I am an IDIOT and not quite up to Brooking standards!

Runningupthathill82 · 22/03/2015 10:19

Pasta and others - will a FRER be better than a clearblue digital? Are any digitals good?!
there's no arguing with a word, I'm thinking.
