STEP AWAY FROM THE FIRST RESPONSE..... March/April 2ww

[OracleInaCoracle]

couldnt find another thread!

Correction... I was with NJ until she posted that! Looks like I'm on my own now , .... (TESSTTTTTT!!!!) no don't test, wait.... (have you tested yet?)

LOL OK I am back with Lennied, I only backed down because Lissie made sense, but damn it, I can't resist the letters T,E,S and another T for good luck

I am off for the night now, have a good evening everyone

but, cheapies are often unreliable until after af's due. best waiting one more day.

Are cheapies really that unreliable. I have never used them before.

this is the brand I have. Anyone used them and know how accurate they are? They say they detect the same strength of hormone as a Clear Blue.

they vary a lot from pack to pack, ive never had a clear response from a cheapie, often seems to be a smudge or a faint line or evap lines....

Thanks Lissie. In that case I will try and resist the lure of Boots on the way home so that I have no decent tests in the house and can continue to resist until Friday (sorry everyone else!)

it'll be worth it when you get a nice fat, clear bfp!

The percentages of those who get their BFPs on set dpo are as follows:
10dpo=35%
11dpo=51%
12dpo=62%
13dpo=68%
14dpo=74%
15dpo=80%
16dpo=88%
17dpo=92%
and there are some who have not got their BFP until 21dpo

with thanks to the clearbluefairyjunior!

I bow to clearbluefairyjunior's superior knowledge.

I have decided to not test until Sunday if af doesn't come. Dh said I should have done a test this morning but I didn't want to today.

So how is everyone else doing?

Please may I have some of your willpower please?

Morning all

BFN for me this morning, but still no sign of period....

Off to GP's this afternoon, will hopefully get some answers at long last!

bfn for me

BFP, BFP, BFP!!!!!!

I am watching the First Response line develop as a type. Its much fainter than the control but it is a visable line. I can't beleive it.

DH is at the dentist. I can't get hold of him. Aaaarrrggghhhhhh

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am seriously in shock. I am at my desk and have the test hidden under a folder where I can peak occassionally.

Last night I was sitting with my diary looking at my recent cycle lengths (because I have irregular cycles) and I realised that this cycle was already one day longer than any other in the last 3 months. So I decided that gave me permission to do an internet cheapy this morning.

I did the internet cheapy upon waking and I though I saw a second line. But DH disagreed and reckoned it was a shadow of where the line would be. I knew that if I got a line like that on a Frist Reponse I would consider it a positve, but given the repuation of cheapies I refused to get too excited. I then refused to eat or drink so as not to bilute my urine. I did my whole commute starving hungry and v thirtsy and bought a Frist Response at the Tube station.

I am still staring a the test now (hope no colleagues are watching). It is a faint pink but I can ssee it from a long distance .

YAY!!!

I am so happy for you!!!

Is this your first?

It will be my second.
DD is 19 months.
My EDD should be 13 December so there should be 2 yrs and 4 months between them.

Awww!

Thats a good amount of time between them.

I could never do a test at work. I wouldn't be able to keep my mouth shut.

Congratulations artichokes, wonderful news. I had a feeling that fertility monitor would swing it!

Sorry, going crazy... was Roquefort with the fertility monitor. Though it was you, that's why I was convinced you would get a BFP!

Congratulations Artichokes Has cheered me up - well done!!

Sorry about BFN Claire, could it be too early?

Thanks everyone.

Just spoke to DH who was very pleased. He works 5 mins away from me so is going to come and look ath the test on his way back from the dentist. Not sure why I want him to look at the test but I really, really do .

Sorry about your BFN Natalie Jane, so strange when you thought there might have been a line yesterday. I hope the GP gives you some good answers.

Awww Artichokes, I always need DH to look as well, just clarifies it, and makes it more real, as in not my imagination!

I hope he does as well, whenever I get to bloody see him.

I had to get DH to look at mine too. Even the CBD one

I feel really sick this morning. Been sick once already. I think I am coming down with a bug as dh wasn't feeling good last night.
