Sorry if I missed anyone, and happy baby-making!

@ValidUser you're not out till she arrives!! Any symptoms of AF turning up or not? Xx

@MrsR16 boobs don't hurt. They normally do. No spotting (but that may be because my blood filled tube is now gone! I'm not as cranky as usual but I am craving my usual PMS carbs.

Are you planning to test?

@MrsR16 I so totally know that feeling, nothing like a BFN to break your heart. I’ll keep FX for you that AF stays away :)

@MrsR16 I get that - maybe wait a day or so and if AF still hasn't appeared test then?

Posted too soon!
@ValidUser as long as AF isn't here you're not out!
Fingers crossed for you both!

@ValidUser I'm torn between wanting to test because there's a chance it could be a BFP but really not wanting to! I don't know what to do 😕

@MrsEG @Tropicana1 You ladies are amazing 😊 this is why I love this thread! Just super supportive and helpful with everything!

I'm going on holiday on Monday and we're camping for the first couple of nights, which isn't much fun if AF is in full flow, so I also want to test to see if it might hit... my brain is going nuts!

@MrsR16 a test can't make you more or less pregnant than you are! How many dpo are you again? Test test test!

@ValidUser I have absolutely no idea! I didn't track at all this month, barely logged symptoms! Flo reckons I'm 14 dpo and Glow reckons I'm 13dpo!

Thanks for the stats update @starkid

Fingers crossed that AF doesn't make an appearance @ValidUser

@MrsR16, I agree with @Tropicana1 - see if you can wait another day. Hope you get a BFP.

@AysLon - I've been using an Ava for nearly two cycles. I did a lot of reading before I bought as it's not a cheap thing. But decided that temping with a thermometer would stress me out as I work shifts, and may not even work. Also that I spend enough on Clear Blue flashy/smiley opks. I used my last ones this month and not going to buy any more.

Haven't got the result I want yet but would say it's been good for me as there's no need for alarms or waking up.

But more importantly, Clear Blue had my a peak fertile day about 5 days before I actually ovulated. With EWCM and the BBT chart from Ava I knew I hadn't, but I wouldn't have checked for EWCM iyswim.

Think my body geared up for O but it didn't happen.
Initially I had more faith in CB, but now I'm sticking with Ava as it consistently said I was going to O the date that it actually happened.

I'm currently 4dpo and symptom spotting like mad - feeling a bit crampy and hoping it's not cos I had an extra large burrito.

TLDR: Ava made me realise I was ovulating later than I thought, but I didn't get that info from CB OPK.

If it helps anyone, here's a code for £20 off.

Fingers crossed @MrsR16!!

@dahlia123 @Lola871 thanks lovelies!! I will try!

I couldn't take it any longer! I am shaking!

@MrsR16 - congratulations!!

@Chembecky thank you! I'm still shaking!!

@MrsR16 delighted for you! That's a dye stealer! ❤️

@MrsR16 what a strong line! Huge congratulations!! Very pleased for you ❤️

Congratulations @MrsR16 - that's a fantastic line!!!!

@MrsR16 I knew it!! Congratulations xx

Woohoo!! Congratulations @MrsR16, so pleased for you!

@MrsR16 huge huge congratulations. That's a mega dark line, wonder just how many babies you've got in there!! Wishing you the very best.

Taken a similar approach to you this month and have done no OPKs, temping or planned sex. Flo says I'm 5dpo and Glow 6dpo but I only really started to get ewcm on Sunday so who knows!! It's out frost wedding anniversary next week and we're going to eat drink and be merry and will not poas!!

MrsR16, I knew it!! Congratulations 😃 So happy for you!! Xxx

@ValidUser I think you're next!!! I have a feeling!

@LokiCat @dahlia123 @MrsEG @Lola871 @LikeTheFruit @Fivebyfive2 thank you all so much ladies! 😘😘

I literally started crying in the bathroom while DH was outside - it came up before the control line did! He heard me and thought I'd hurt myself so came running through the house and there was me holding my piss stick in one hand crying hysterically!!

@MrsR16 aghhh!!!! Yay!! Congratulations!! How exciting and what a fabulous line you have there!

@MrsR16 - that is one crazy strong line!! Congratulations, that's such good news, for someone who's been on the thread for ages too happy 9 months! xxx

@MrsR16 Yay!!
