Oh runner don't get disheartened. A faint line is better than no line. Wait to the weekend and fingers crossed for a darker line.

Runner05 · 18/11/2015 07:20

Thanks ladies just grumpy and although I think I saw something on the test I'm not convinced it wasn't just line eye.

I'm just going to assume the witch is going to turn up on Sunday.

Keeping everything crossed for you runner

shelbTa · 18/11/2015 07:53

It must be frustrating runner - as bergamot says though it's so early on.

Three days until AF typically goes, looking forward to to it clearing off!

Runner I feel for you-the not knowing is so frustrating. Distract yourself with lots of nice things over the next few days. Don't listen to us if we're getting you worked up! Get the OH to lock up those pissy sticks until the weekend! Xx

Runner05 · 18/11/2015 09:15

Lol, it's ok. I'm not going to do any more testing until Monday. We're going to Bath on Friday for the night then we have the step troubles on Saturday and Sunday and it wouldn't be a good idea to test with them around so next opportunity will be Monday but today's test was a definite negative (any thought of a line was wishful thinking) so I'm not holding out much hope. Wondering it it was a chemical pregnancy as that would explain the couple of faint positives.

Anyway, more importantly I've got to go to the Dr's today to hopefully be signed off for another two weeks until they can get me into counselling. Scared they won't especially as we will find out what's really wrong with mum in the next two weeks and also what her life expectancy will be... I'm not expecting good news on that front either. Sad

Adding myself to the new group!

KatOnATinRo0f · 18/11/2015 12:12

It's taken me literally 2 days to catch up on what's happened since my last check in!!

I'm 28 been off pill since end of august. Had 2 cycles since now on 2ww... Ovia says a cab test in 6 days and I think AF is due Tuesday/weds. Keeping everything crossed. Not too hopeful as no symptoms. I have
Has a small breakout of spots in my face but I doubt that is a sign.

purplesmiler · 18/11/2015 14:13

Runner sending big hugs your way and fingers crossed for Monday. Try to take it easy I know easier said than done.

I have been having clear Ovulation symptoms for a couple of days now. According to Ovia my main day is tomorrow.

Runner05 · 18/11/2015 14:33

Thanks Purple I'm trying Confused

Good luck heading into tww Smile

BubbaNo1 · 18/11/2015 14:47

Ovulation day is tomorrow for me too Purple... Well we shall see... 1st month being off the pill so who knows what's happening.

Runner05 · 18/11/2015 16:27

Good luck Bubba

Well I've seen the Dr. Saw a specialist in stress related illness who has signed me off for another 4 weeks Shock at least she didn't insist I had depression like the last Dr did!

shelbTa · 18/11/2015 16:46

Good luck purple!**

Welcome to the baby boat admarks

runner I'm so glad the Dr visit was productive and positive. Stop over analysing tests and worrying easier said than done and enjoy your weekend, and when you test on Monday I'll have my fingers crossed for two pink lines for you Flowers it's the not knowing that's the worst!

How are we all this rainy horrid day? Dh has taken dsis to get a tattoo and then is going to the gym, I'm enjoying some peace and quiet, I might go mad and have a gin and bitter lemon later! I know how to live wild, me!

Newmrs22 · 18/11/2015 18:31

I just bought a superdrug early test. Was going to wait until AF due on Friday but I just read it can be taken at any time of day, not FMU! This makes me tempted to do it now! Argh

Newmrs22 · 18/11/2015 18:54

Boo. BFN. Well that's depressing! I really want a glass of wine now!

Pinklily1 · 18/11/2015 19:28

HI ladies

Runner -so glad the doctor has signed you off. Fingers and toes crossed for the test on Monday!

Runner05 · 18/11/2015 19:49

Hi Ad Grin

Yeh, I'm relieved too, especially as my mum was really worried she would have to deal with my sis alone. I know she'll be fine when sis gets here but I'm concerned about it.

Ooo... Tesco have FRER two pack for £6.50... I resisted the urge to empty the shelf only one fell in my basket. I also bought a couple of their ultra cheap ones so that if my addiction gets too much I can pee on a £1 instead of £5 Wink
Also bought myself a lovely box of milk tray to scoff while I watch apprentice Smile must get on the treadmill tomorrow, it's not as if it isn't sat in the living room staring at me!!! Hmm no I don't really think it's staring at me, I'm stressed not completely batty...

Runner05 · 18/11/2015 19:50

Forgot to say, sorry for the BFN New. When are you actually due?

Deborah89 · 18/11/2015 19:58

Welcome Ad

Amazon have frer tests 2 for £6.50 and they are available on prime so next day delivery!

I am keeping my fingers crossed for your Monday test runner.

StarkyTheDirewolf · 18/11/2015 19:59

runner I went as far as taking our running machine to live in my dm garage as it was just sat there, constantly inactive, judging me. Dh wants it back now though, the health concious basted. Grin

Runner05 · 18/11/2015 20:04

Lol, I'm not quite that bad Stark I jump on the runner about twice a week but it's not enough. Dr's orders I need to exercise every day Shock

BergamotMouse · 18/11/2015 20:14

Glad you've been signed off for another 4 weeks runner. Lock those FRER in a cupboard now! Before you're tempted.

I took myself out for a (rather slow) run when I got in from work which I'm very proud of. I used to run so much, 25 miles a week, but work always seems to get in the way. Thought I'd try take it back up before I get sick.

I'm still spotting a tiny bit so just hope it's going to stick in there. Trying not to go over the top with thinking ahead.

DH is now on antibiotics for a bladder infection (and feeling very sorry for himself). He blames all the sex Blush.

purplesmiler · 18/11/2015 20:18

All this talk of exercise is making me want to eat chocolate lol. I like to think that the extra bedroom antics add to our exercise ladies hehe
