Thanks aux, only got FF this week and haven't explored it yet, will give it a go!

auxiliaryauroch · 08/04/2015 20:20

Oo-Oooh have fun! When I started on ff I briefly got stuck in browsing charts. I almost died of dehydration. Be prepared. Sit down at the computer with a flask of tea! Grin

Woolly84 · 08/04/2015 20:28

ibeka so sorry to hear of your loss, I really hope your next, sticky BFP is along soon Flowers

Spinning ok listen. clutching at straws we can still get Christmas babas. So this cycle may possibly be out for me.. But.. If we get bfps next cycle they may pop out early and dadaaaa! Christmas babas!

Sparkly. I have been so down and hacked off these last few days. I don't even know how many DPO I am. I just know I am cd28 and expecting AF anyway now.

Anyway just wanted to say thank you for being positive and upbeat on your posts. It really is catching and refreshing to read knowing what you have been through and what you are up against (with your health) I just wanted to give you a shout out for helping me think differently about the situation I'm in and seeing things positively.

I am gutted as I had silly day dreams about a christmas baby. Having a bump and admiring the Christmas tree, making a mad midnight dash to the hospital in our crap British weather. Just day dreaming.

Hence feeling proper shit when I got my BFN on Tuesday.

Sorry for rambling on! Just wanted to say never stop being Sparkly.

spinningirl10 · 08/04/2015 20:53

Ah I like you're thinking Sparkly! If I opt for a section they'd do it early cos of my ageSmile

Ok, I'm losing the plot! I picked up a signed for package at the post office today. It's only envelop sized. I put it in the door of my car and then I thought I put it in a carrier bag as I had shopping bags to carry in. I can't find the bloody letter anywhere!! Have even been through the bin twice and got covered in the remains of ds's weetabix!!

Baker47 · 08/04/2015 21:00

Ha ha - I like your thinking sparklyGrin

Wow, this bus moves quickly! Sorry I haven't had chance to catch up properly - just started a new job and they're making me do actual work which is getting in the way of checking in Hmm

ibeka I'm so sorry to hear about your mc. Look after yourself and am keeping everything crossed for your sticky bfp very soon.

spinning sorry for your bfn. Hope you are ok.

Cd3 here and AF has packed her bags already. Should I be worried that AF is only 2 days long (has been for cycles since mc)? It just doesn't seem long enough!

Ladies- help! I have given in and decided to buy a thermometer as I intend to start temping after the pills and this withdrawal bleed. I figured that, if I do have PCOS, I probably won't be able to trust OPKs, so am going to try and give charting a go. However, I've just been onto Amazon... Babymad Hot Pink, light ups, two decimal places, large LCD display, beeps when it reaches optimum temperature, £5.00? Check. But I added it to basket and it is going to charge me £6.00 delivery??? Is there any way I can get it cheaper? I don't wanna pay £11

juneybean · 08/04/2015 21:06

EBay?

Butterchunks · 08/04/2015 21:06

Eskimo, try looking on eBay for the same model. I got the same one for about a fiver from eBay or Amazon but I think I filtered the results by cheapest postage, definitely didn't pay over £8 in total

GlitteryLipgloss1 · 08/04/2015 21:19

Laura have you checked ebay?

Oysterbabe · 08/04/2015 21:19

Is there anything else you need? Free delivery on orders over £10. Vitamins? Brazil nuts? Fifty shades? Birthday cards?

GlitteryLipgloss1 · 08/04/2015 21:20

Lube....#justsaying

Oysterbabe · 08/04/2015 21:21

This should be enough for us all

spinningirl10 · 08/04/2015 21:25

There is also a babymad website that sell them but don't know how much delivery is.

My last comment to Sparkly should have said your not you're!

spinningirl10 · 08/04/2015 21:26

Oyster the link doesn't work but a gallon of lubeBlush

Baker47 · 08/04/2015 21:28

Sorry, that was in relation to the gallon of lube not your post, spinning!!

spinningirl10 · 08/04/2015 21:28

Ooh babymad says free delivery!Smile

nightandthelight · 08/04/2015 21:28

eskimo I bought that one from Amazon this week and it qualified for free super saver delivery. Perhaps that is because I also bought opks though. Is there anything else you need that you could add to the shop?

spinningirl10 · 08/04/2015 21:28

Haha Baker, I realised thatGrin

eskimolaura · 08/04/2015 21:33

Thanks everyone! You're right oyster I have to spend over a tenner. No point in buying OPKs, (see above point) but I shall have a browse and see if there is anything else.

spinning I shall have a look at their website too Grin

Oysterbabe · 08/04/2015 21:34

55 gallons Smile

Mummyofonesofar · 08/04/2015 21:41

Nomio the problem with gps is that they are all businesses, not just an nhs entity. Which means they all bitch about eachother - the competition. Therefore are very careful with what they share, so unless they have non disclosure agreements set up they rarely freely and easily share information. This gives them time to update/change notes from appts to make them look better. Shit but true.....

sparkly chart staring once is good!!

woolly hi! Flashing smiley - yay - go, go, go!

oyster the Q&As and reviews on the lube are fab
eskimo if you get stuck - I have Amazon prime which gives me free unlimited deliveries so could order for you and you could paypal me the monies. - or is that weird over tinternet?
