Thanks for suggesting that I start this thread - its a real honour. Won't be leaving it yet as am only on cd24, despite getting bfps from the 3 tests I have done today (paranoid or what?!).
Lots and lots of babydust to everyone. If this pg is successful, I will have conceived in the midst of an awful cold so that should give everyone some hope. Lots and lots of hugs.....

RudyDudy · 21/01/2005 17:44

OMG munnzie - hope it doesn't turn into a stressful one for you. If it does just make some excuse about checking the windows or something and sneek onto MN to have a rant.

I'm off for yet more panto tonight (and Sat and Sun!) so here I go again Oh no you don't Oh yes I do! blah, blah blah...

marinda · 21/01/2005 20:00

Enjoy Yourself Runtus !

Hulababy · 22/01/2005 08:34

CD25, 9DPO. Temps up still - but little else to add really in that front yet!

RudyDudy · 22/01/2005 09:02

Hula - I'm CD28 and 7/8 dpo so will be right behind you with the testing! Wish I was doing temps so I had something to distract me! Very optimistic about yours - good luck

A little rough myself this morning so off out for a big family breakfast now.

morningpaper · 22/01/2005 11:42

Day 23 and 10 dpo - did ANOTHER test today which was BFN, have no self control at all. Felt really sick this morning but that was probably the bottle of wine last night... I'm practically at the stage of stealing money from old ladies to fund my pregnancy test habit.

Did Clearblue Digital - why don't they do refills? It's such a money-maker, I wonder how much profit they make on each test. I bought them from Boots which had a notice saying 'buy one get one half price' but they came up full price and I was too embarassed to argue with the spotty 19 year-old boy at the till.

RudyDudy · 22/01/2005 13:25

oh bless morningpaper - please don't rob the old dears! Have you tried medisave.co.uk - you can bulk buy tests to fuel your habit.

I'm a fellow sufferer and come 10dpo am sure I will be succombing too, though will try very hard to wait until 14dpo. At least with the bulk bought tests I don't feel as wracked with guilt for wasting lots of money. HPTs are sooo expensive! Good luck for this month though- it really is too early to tell.

Hulababy · 22/01/2005 14:06

Looks like we three are all waiting round the same time this month. AF for me is due anytime between Tuesday and Saturday next week.

morningpaper · 22/01/2005 15:03

I have just found out that one of the women from my postnatal group is 4 months pg - I'm the last one left TTC!

It's SO good to have fellow sufferers here! Good luck you two! xxx

mariella · 22/01/2005 15:13

hello everyone, haven't posted for so long because it was all doing my head in so thought I'd just go with the flow.
except I'm now on day 27 and just wondering......
don't feel at all premenstrual.
should I test tomorrow? or just wait and see? last cycle was 28 days, previously around 28/29.
I'm nervous!
anyone else testing in the next few days? this thread is soooooo long I can't work it out!

jeddah · 22/01/2005 17:26

munz....if dh is posted in york we will be neighbours!!!!!!!!!! yipee! meet ups in york for lunch and shopping (for shoes ofcourse!)

Hula, mariella, Rudy and MP all good luck in testing

What is happening to sweetheart I have missed what has happened will someone let me know.....if poss?

I am cd14 and usually ov bewteen 17-21 so waiting for big 'O' on persona!

My gynae appointment is on Tuesday same day as Munz! so we can compare notes!!!!! I really will be very interested in what they will say! and what they will do as we are going equipped with all our fertility test results from the quacks!

Just off to cook dinner. Marinated grilled chicken, green beans, jacket potatoes and a load of ale!

Rudy what exams are you taking??????

princesspeahead · 23/01/2005 10:15

well tested this morning, using 1st response, on day 28.
bfn
but no sign of af yet.
doesn't look hopeful does it

RudyDudy · 23/01/2005 10:20

hello pph - how many dpo are you? and when is AF due? Fingers crossed you have just tested too early - it's not over until she arrives

Jedds - I'm doing a dietetics degree. One more exam next Thurs and this time next week I will be on holiday - hurrah! Which will hopefully distract me from the dreaded waiting for AF to show up. We haven't invited her on the holiday with us but you know what a cheeky mare she is!

Hi Mariella - have you tested? Will admire your patience if you haven't but know that I would have done first thing this morning Good luck to you this month..

How are the other pre-testers????

Hope the weekend is going well Munnzie

Hulababy · 23/01/2005 10:25

1Morning all. CD14, 9DPO I think. Temps still up but FF website is down right now so can't record. Incase I forgot what temp is later, going to write it here as a reminder - 36.69 Still a waiting game for me for a few more days.

PPH - could still be too early for testing. With DD I didn't get a BFP until a few days into the pg. Hang in there and test again in a few days. Good luck.

Mariella - how's it going? Did you give in and test today, are have you resisted? Good luck and hope it is your month

Went out for lovel meal, all expenses paid yesterday night. Mmmm. Broke my diet, and drank a bit too much for this time of cycle, but hey...it was nice

mariella · 23/01/2005 13:18

hello rudy and hula - thanks for the thoughts for both me and pph! we are one and the same - I use mariella on this thread in the vain hope that my sister won't notice that I'm ttc! I may be in luck, she is on holiday for the next 10 days

anyway I don't know when I ov, so that isn't much help is it. but I'm developing a big zit on my chin which is a dead giveaway that af is coming for me... I'll keep you all posted!

pickledonion · 23/01/2005 15:56

good afternoon all CD20 here and all is good.

Good luck to all of you who are comming to the end of the cycle hope to see some BFP for you all.

In some ways i am dreading the end as this is my first month of TTC i don't want the disapoint that i feel we'll get.

jeddah · 23/01/2005 19:08

gosh rudy! I have just completed 2 degrees and never never never again! you are a star! good luck next thursday!

Mariella....get the concealor out!

morningpaper · 23/01/2005 19:47

Well it's day 24 and 11 dpo. Did a test this morning and it was a faint positive. I think. It is hard to tell because I seem to have halluncinated so many faint positives before. But I think it was. Tonight I am bleeding slightly - new blood - which is odd because I am 4/5 days before AF is due. I am hoping this is an implantation bleed. But I am trying to be calm and circumspect about it.

Am scared to even type this in case it jinxes me or something...

Bloody hell eh?

I am sending out good vibes to Hula, Mariella, princesspea and RudyDudy - let's hope we are all graduates this month. Fingers crossed. xxx

Hulababy · 23/01/2005 21:23

Oops mistyped completely. CD26, 10DPO

Hulababy · 23/01/2005 21:25

Oh, MP. Fingers crossed there. Sounding positive.... when are you testing next?

morningpaper · 23/01/2005 21:44

I did another test just now... different brand - definite positive.

Can't believe it. Am feeling very shocked and wobbly.

My due date will be the day after dd's third birthday!

Bloody hell...
