I will still only be 11dpo tomorrow when LP is 14 days so tomorrow will be to early (wont it?)

lixanismapolium · 11/06/2008 19:20

I guess so ... never stopped me! Seriously, I think you could be lucky. The earliest I hav heard of was 10 dpo, but I think the chances are pretty slim.

Some people get really stressed out by testing and if you're one of them then probably should wait. But if you want to and can afford a couple of extra sticks, then why not!

sorkycake · 11/06/2008 19:21

what test will you be using?

lardylumps · 11/06/2008 19:23

I have FR and ebay cheap ones.

lixanismapolium · 11/06/2008 19:24

They would need to be pretty sensitive ones to pick up anything at this stage

sorkycake · 11/06/2008 19:27

Hmm do a cheep and save the FR for 12dpo if you want to test.

God I really want you test,test,test but for some reason I can't.

I think it's cos I relied on you through my CB crisis , I can't do that to you.

I have an LP12 and tested very positive on 11 dpo with a FR.

Have you written your temps down LL?

sorkycake · 11/06/2008 19:28

I've had FR +ves at 10dpo but that's 2 days early for me. I'd save them for 12dpo personally.

Go pee on a cheep now!

lardylumps · 11/06/2008 19:32

I cant do it now only went to loo about 5 mins ago. I have been struggling to get temps done every morning because I never wake up in the bed I went to sleep in (DD has suffered with MMR jab really high temps and crying a lot). But they havent ever been lower than 36.8 dont know if that is good or not. Am putting the thermometer in my PJ's tonight to make sure I can find it in the morning.

I am going to wait until Friday I think and do a cheep one then if negative I will do FR on Sunday..

Ate tons, drank non-alcoholic pear cider all day and feel very good!!!

will be around tomorrow!! xxx

Ses15 · 11/06/2008 23:08

Anyone still up? I'm just back from dinner with Mum which went ok really. She did turn her nose up when she realised I'd confided in a friend and not her and that I didn't ask her to go to scan with me today. I tried to tell her that I hadn't wanted to stress her out and that she'd been at work anyway and she reluctantly accepted it.

It was a nice evening over all though all things considered.

Rachrox · 11/06/2008 23:17

Hi Ses,
I'm pleased everything went well with your mum, and you managed to have a nice evening, especially after ure day.

Everyone has been quiet on here this evening, think it must be good tv tonight !!

Ses15 · 11/06/2008 23:20

Maybe everyone was watching The Apprentice!!?? I'm just catching up on it c/o Sky+!

kayzisexpecting · 12/06/2008 06:58

Morning,

My bloody laptop is f**king broken and I am so pissed off!!!

DH is going to ring the company this afternoon and see if they can fix it!!

Hope everyone is ok.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/06/2008 07:09

Good morning

Cal and LL, hope the DC's are feeling a bit more 'with it' this morning, it is horrible when their not quite right. And Cal sorry about your mums cat, people always say things like 'it was only a cat/dog/whatever' but it is still sad, I still remember the day our dog was put down and that was ooooohhh 13/14 years ago!

Ses sorry about the scan not going so well Did they do an internal one or just the tummycam? It can make all the difference. Fingers crossed something comes of the bloods. Glad your mum didn't take it all too badly, and that you had a nice evening with her.

Cosmo, that is really fasinating! Thanks for posting it

Glaskham, glad you had a lovely birthday

So who is testing today? Where'd that list go?

kayzisexpecting · 12/06/2008 07:12

It was obviously a day for DC's being ill as DS was really ill yesterday while I was at work. He does seem better today.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/06/2008 07:22

Glad he seems better.

Spose I'd better go and get ready really, do you think anyone would mind if I turned up at school with un-showered, un-washed hair, dressing gown, slippers, no make up, with my eyes closed and snoring?

kayzisexpecting · 12/06/2008 07:26

No probably not!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/06/2008 07:29

Ha! Thanks a lot!! LOL

I am going to go and at least get showered, I'll see if I can be bothered going the whole hog after!!

Ses15 · 12/06/2008 07:39

Morning!

NJ - they did do an internal scan. Was the only way to see anything. I'm not holding out much hope for being pg now as the dates just don't seem to work out. On the flipside though the EPU said that normally I would have had some bleeding if the ERPC hadn't been complete and I am feeling a bit bloated! I just want to know!!!! Am not the most patient of people either!

Anyway better get ready and go off to work....

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/06/2008 08:00

I think they say that you would normally be able to see 'something' at anywhere between 6-8 weeks on an internal scan, I might be wrong on that though. Wish there was something we could do to give you an answer, can't imagine how frustrating it is.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/06/2008 08:02

Oh BTW, just to clear up any confusion, I am now showered, hair washed and dried, dressed in clothes (not my dressing gown!) have pumps on (not my slippers!) have my make up on, eyes are just about open, and no snoring.... well not a lot of it anyway!

Ses15 · 12/06/2008 08:04

Ur right with the frustration! There was definitely something on the scan but she said if it was a pregnancy it would be less than 5.5 weeks and her gut feel said she thought it was an incomplete ERPC. I guess I try and be patient and wait for the blood HCG results on Monday.....

Now just have to go to work and pretend everything's fine!!!???!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/06/2008 08:09

Have you had any bleeding at all? Any pain? Monday seems a long way off at the moment doesn't it?

Throw a sicky, you deserve it! Then you will be home for DH as well.

Ses15 · 12/06/2008 08:14

No bleeding at all since bleeding finished after ERPC! All v odd!

Am v tempted to throw a sicky but have a meeting with my boss today. It's a general performance review that he's doing with everyone but I'm also waiting to hear whether I've got a new job that I applied for internally.... Maybe I'll go in, wait for him to come into store (I'm a pharmacist and manager for a well known chain of chemists!) and then come home....! He's due in at 11am so I reckon I could be home about 2pm!
