Sounding good Dawn The reason I buy the ones you dip in a jug/cup is that I used to be so nervous when trying to hold the stick in my wee that I couldn't wee enough so the tests were wasted. Even when I do the Clearblue I dip those in the jug so that it gets the right amount of wee.

Good Luck !

BB big hugs. I'm so sorry. I think I know what you're going through. I was laughing it off/living on hope for about 7 months then it just crept up on me, felt totally consumed by it, felt a failure, felt a fool for being obsessed, felt guilty for feeling obsessed (we all know that's counter productive), rowing LOADS (great for BDing, not), angry with DH for not understanding, not able to work or socialize or sleep properly, got v, v sad & thought 'sod all this, we can't live like this'.
Talking to GP about it all this spring and kind-of agreeing a time to get referred with her, then opening up to DH about it all (and in the process having a bit of a surprise infatuation with him all over again) was the best thing I did. That, and that silly but v effective Primark mini skirt . Oh, and joining MN. But it's totally understandable you wanting to pull away from all this for a while. It is what the name says: bonkers. Will be thinking of you. xx

Love to everyone else, fingers crossed for Dawn !! (I'm not leaving the computer now).

PS: HC I'm a stick dipper too, posh test or not. Just easier to get right, yes?
You can even get this fetching mug now.

Thanks Mandy and Flirty!!

I guess I sort of knew, but wasn't 100%, do you know what I mean? I felt different but as it was Cycle 1, didn't know if it was things that maybe I'd felt before, but hadn't noticed because I hadn't been looking...

I'd like to hang around ladies if I can, don't really want to leave this thread yet.... Not feeling quite ready to go into the big wide world....

So now I have 9 PG Tests and a number of OV Tests.

If anyone wants them, send me an email and I'll send them out to you.

I may use another 1 or 2 PG tests over the next few days, just to see how dark I can make the line... but I'll send out 5 PG tests and the rest of the OVs.

Who-hoo Dawn!! I'm grinning too . Will you tell DH over the phone asap? Get a small bottle of champers in?

Do keep some tests for yourself, it's nice to do a few in the days to come.
You can be the first to start the April ante-natal club now, over at the preggers place! (I'm in the March one)

On the other thread that we use, I suggested that we should get some T-shirts printed up for babies with:-

I was conceived during the summer 2008 BD-Fest... have them done in pink and blue -

Maybe we could get MN to sponsor the initiative!! Ha ha ha!!!
