No tests can accurately predict that early!! Don't waste your money and cause yourself all that undue stress. Just be patient. Hang in there.

ammylovesbabies · 28/01/2007 12:42

Ready, you are a marvel. Can you tell me that every day till saturday please?!

Ur AF is due same day as mine x

ammylovesbabies · 28/01/2007 12:43

Ready? What does grapefruit juice do? Noticed it on your prfile. x

Ready · 28/01/2007 12:45

Well... in that case Ammy, perhaps you should wait til I test then since we are due on the same day!! I can offer you moral support. If AF doesn't arrive on the 3rd I don't intend testing for at least a week. Reckon you've got the willpower for that?? NO TESTING EARLY!!!!!!! It's a waste of time, money and most importantly EMOTION. A BFN MEANS NOTHING BEFORE AF IS DUE! NOTHING AT ALL!!!!!

Ok. Rant over.

Ready · 28/01/2007 12:48

Oh yeah, I forgot about the profiles!! not enough people have them!!!

Grapefruit juice, apparently, increases your EWCM, which is the best environment for the sperm. Drink a glass of it every day up til OV (I think it's a uterine stimulant too, so best not to take after OV) (don't quote me!)... I don't really drink it for that reason alone anymore, I don't mind the pink stuff, and it's one of my 5-a-day.

Lottie (hugs)... A bit nervous that I am so close to the top of the list

ammylovesbabies · 28/01/2007 12:50

It's a deal- One week. Thats the 10/2. Then we test. No early testing, and no fibbing bout early testing.

Right, Clearbluebuddy, thats a deal. Be strong and I will too. xxxxxxxxxxx

Being near the top of the list is a pressure. Anyone want to test before me and ready??!!

ammylovesbabies · 28/01/2007 12:53

Does grapefruit juice work?Notice any physical difference?

Ready · 28/01/2007 12:54

Ammy - That'll be one hell of a birthday present if I get a BFP then!! You can be assured there will be no fibbing from me. I strongly believe testing too soon is a BFWOT (big fat waste of time)!!

Lottie - Have had a few achy/niggles the last couple of days, which is usually a sign AF is on the way. So not actually feeling too positive. But that said... I am always optimistic to the last... so I'm feeling pretty up and down. This week will fly by (I hope)... Sorry again that AF arrived, Feb is our month!!!!!! (see there's that optimism again!)

ammylovesbabies · 28/01/2007 12:54

Lottie, sorry to hear bout AF. Sometimes it is almost a relief though when the build up to it is so cr*p x

ammylovesbabies · 28/01/2007 12:56

I have had some aches and pains in the tummicular area. Convinced AF is on way. Feel cross and slightly doubtful. This was last chance saloon for me as getting married in DEC. Does anybody know if you are allowed to marry in Church up the duff??

I am sure that people lower on the list than me and Ammy will test sooner... no willpower

Not really sure that the grapefruit juice has made a difference really... Have a go and see if you think it does. I am sure it does for some people... but then I have always had EWCM , just wanted to try something that people were talking about at the time... I am sure you understand what I mean

ammylovesbabies · 28/01/2007 12:58

Thats a date then ready- 10/02. If we make it that far too it will be worth investing in a clear blue digital I reckon. Fancy a razz on one of them. Good luck Ready, Be stong (says the girl who 10 mins ago was looking for ULTRA early pg tests)

ammylovesbabies · 28/01/2007 13:00

Oh yeah, Ive even considered DD's tixylix xx

I DO have willpower!! I DO! I DO!

I will be strong Ready, I promise xxx

Lottie, I think that must be true. The symptoms must kind of plateau as the pregnancy hormones take over IYSWIM x

May have to- can't see me having a break from ttc. After the build up of the last couple of months, stopping for a few months will be a real let down. Feel quite upset about it really, with the wedding looming it feels like double the pressure.

seaside72 · 28/01/2007 13:09

Hi all
Well I guess Jersey and I are at the top!! - don't worry londonlottie I think the reorganisation is good - it makes it all look clearer and is very practical

I am almost positive my AF will arrive early maybe even in the next 48 hrs , I've just got that feeling IYKWIM? I had a wobble of optimism yesterday morning, but that has passed as have now had a little bit of brown CM (sorry TMI!) and also some funny crampy pains in lower abdomen.

Big sigh

iwillbepgbydec07 · 28/01/2007 13:10
