Apologies in advance for name changing!

Have been 'at it' for a very long time and am on day 29 with 3 faint positives. I have had a chemical preg before but am daring to get a little excited but feeling the odd cramp.

good vibes please (but go easy on the angel dust!)

Good luck!x

BillyElliot · 23/04/2008 13:40

Are you from the hut - how exciting ! haven't had a BFP in there for a while.

Good luck !

sending you happy, sticky vibes!!

Just got a +ve less than an hour ago and it is not as strong as the control line but definitely a pink line...

What tests did you use?

BillyElliot · 23/04/2008 15:30

ohhhh! i was using the ebay cheapy tests of craziness but just bought a proper one and there is a wee faint line.

congrats yctt!

excellent!!

I will be happier once I have used a 'real' test and once my period is offically late.

NatalieJane · 23/04/2008 15:37

BillyElliot · 23/04/2008 15:39

Oh I hope that positive gets stronger for you. What I did last time was do one normal test and another one in plain water (of you could ask DH for a control sample) do both at the same time and compare. On the test one (I was using cheap ebay tests) there was a definite faintest of faint lines, it's easier to compare with a control test alongside it. That faintest of faint lines is battering my ribs as we speak (hope yours ends up the same in a few months).

YouCantTeuchThis · 23/04/2008 15:59

sweetkitty ...

I dipped another one in my glass of water as soon as I saw the line start to appear on the first!

BillyElliot · 24/04/2008 09:04

cd 30 and still positive quietly optimistic now. feel odd. no big hurrah moment just lots of peering at pissy sticks and worrying about crampy feeling.

OP posts:
YouCantTeuchThis · 24/04/2008 09:08

BillyElliot · 24/04/2008 09:44

BillyElliot · 24/04/2008 11:41

OP posts:
YouCantTeuchThis · 24/04/2008 14:43

BillyElliot · 24/04/2008 14:48
