Bye everyone. I am off too now otherwise DH will be annoyed that I am not at home. Gonna take my details off my MN profile now so if anyone else want to find me on FB they would be better trying to do it through Kay, Moos, Deige, Star or Squack. Otherwise it will have to wait till Mon when I will put me details up again.

Have a good weekend.

Where's Nat been all afternoon?

kayzisexpecting · 25/04/2008 18:32

I dunno, I was thinking that earlier. Maybe her back has been hurting her too much to type.

nobodyputsBBinthecorner · 25/04/2008 19:50

anyone still around??x

VERY IMPORTANT *MESSAGE

I use a persona instead of a cb fertility monitor, but they're pretty much the same thing. Anyhoo, this month with money burning a hole in my pocket I bought a CB digital OV kit (a little device with 5 or 7 test sticks, can't remember exact amount, for £22.99 in Boots.

It's a great bit of kit, uber-precise and when you hit your surge it gives you a symbol. The only drawback is you can't buy replacement sticks and a then stuffed every month for another whole kit

HOWEVER, today I bought a new box of persona sticks and at 5pm I put on in the CB digi, poas and lo and behold a face. I realised yesterday the 2 types of sticks looked identical and when I rang the helpline over a faulty reading, the website gives info on Persona and CB on the same webpage. They are obv the same bloody things!!

What this means girls is for £23 (or £18.38 in Sainsburys) you get a kit for one month then replacement opk sticks for about £8-9, which will last you another 2 months.

Sooooooo cheap!!

I am here BB!

Diege · 25/04/2008 20:08

Sounds a good deal squarky - all too complicated for me though - gave up on my persona a while back, and just rely on good old EWM now I wonder how many other people know they are the same sticks? Sneaky eh!
Yes, was wondering about Nat; hope she's ok!
Hi BB, are you OK?

kayzisexpecting · 25/04/2008 20:19

Me too BB, been a busy week this week. Has AF arrived while I have been away?

Diege · 25/04/2008 20:20

Diege · 25/04/2008 20:26

Sounds nice - quiet ones are sometimes the best, esp when you've had a stressful week. I'm meeting some friends in the park tomorrow, so fingers crossed the weather improves. Sunday will be a trying-to-get out-of-going-to-see-the-MIL-day, maybe hijack older dds and take them to cinema

kayzisexpecting · 25/04/2008 20:26

Thats good then BB, at least you know where you are now.

YouCantTeuchThis · 26/04/2008 09:32

I've tried adding some of you on fb - couldn't find you Kay, or Squacky (sorky)...

Am swinging between feeling fab and feeling sicky. Might tell my mum today

CosmogirlIsStillWaiting · 26/04/2008 09:38

Morning campers!

I've gone for a name change this weekend because am feeling totally conception crazy today [good work BB!] Nearly one year since I found MN, and I am still waiting to ttc...I must have the patience of a saint!

Went to see DH's cousin, her DH and their cute DD [16 months] last weekend and DH was very taken by her, so I was quite pleased. First signs he has shown of liking a baby, so that has to be a good thing

Teuch - not sure when I would tell people. Head says keep it secret until after the 12 week scan, but in practice I'm not sure that would work.

CD 69 today, 9 days after I spotted the EWCM for first time, so really hoping AF is gonna show soon, I certainly feel like she is on her way.
