ROM - this chart on that site here found it fascinating, but then i'm so into my facts and figures re ttc now... like george says the chance of o on the day of +opk in morning is rather good, so mayeb i didnt miss it after all.
hey cadmum, opks are addictive! i used the this time but will prob be returning to cheaper two lines type of thing IF -!- i have to do it next month. only because i want to test twice a day and would have to remortage if i used that many ones........i have learnt i take apart the ones anyhow to see the two lines ANYWAY!

Nemo1977 · 07/04/2005 21:06

no good at links but
www.peeonastick.com
is a fab site
makes me laugh cos the woman has basically tried every pg test going and shows u what would result in pos etc...at least were not the only loopy ones

Cadmum · 07/04/2005 21:11

Still LOL at peeonastick.com! Is that a real site? I thought that orderyourbabyhere.com was unusual but what did I know?!?! Will have to check it out on Sunday when we are back from the 'Big City'. Have a lovely week-end.

Nemo1977 · 07/04/2005 21:18

yes it is a real site
but feel a bit gutted now cos just looked on it about the cb digi tests and apparently it works different to other hpt so is norm to get 2 lines...however it also says it picks up 50umg of hcg rather than the norm of 25....soooo we shall see when my cheap ones come

have nice weekend cadmum

munz · 08/04/2005 08:52

cad mum - how about on ebay ther's normally persona stuff on there if they deliver to canada, do boots.com not deliver there? i'm sure we can find some one for u who will, welcome to the warped world of OV kits! lol

u lot r a chatty bunch arn't u!

will find that link/a joke for us all!

munz · 08/04/2005 09:01

jokes

Stan was seconds away from receiving a vasectomy when his brother and sister-in-law barged in the room holding their newborn baby.

"Stop! You can't do this!" exclaimed the brother.

"And why not?" asked Stan. "Don't you want to have a beautiful baby someday like my wife and I have here?"

Stan said nothing.

The brother grew impatient, "C'mon Stan, I want a nephew. Stan, make me an uncle."

Stan couldn't take it anymore. He gave his sister-in-law an apologetic look and asked his brother, "You're SURE you want a nephew?"

"Yes," the brother replied. "It would be an honor!"

"Well congratulations, you're holding him!"

A police officer, though scheduled for all-night duty at the station, was relieved of duty early and arrived home four hours ahead of schedule, at 2 AM.

Not wanting to wake his wife, he undressed in the dark, crept into the bedroom and started to climb into bed. She sleepily sat up and said, "Mike, dearest, would you go down to the all-night drug store on the next block and get me some aspirin? I've got a splitting headache."

"Certainly, honey," he said, and feeling his way across the room, he got dressed and walked over to the drug store. As he arrived, the pharmacist looked up in surprise, "Say," said the druggist, "aren't you Officer Fenwick of the 8th District?"

"Yes, I am," said the officer.

"Well, then, what in the world are you doing in the Fire Chief's uniform?"

george32 · 08/04/2005 09:52

Agghhh ..... Munz....terrible!!!

Mishi, so sorry about your 2 lines. How long before you can "officially" test?
Love www.peeonastick.com I'm going to read it today I think.

After the excitement of yesterday I have done another OPK and still a . Hoorah, we get to have another go today!!
Throwing myself at DP seemed to do the trick (ate the chocolate myself!!) and he is quite happy to continue today - no rows so far so going OK. Finally feel like I have actively joined the TTCers!!

Cadmum, so glad you are going to be OPKing. I am reliably informed that collection & dipping is the way forwards (Ok, OK, so it worked for me too!!) and the collection vessel should be a deodorant lid!!

Is it snowing anywhere else today???

dramaqueen72 · 08/04/2005 10:51

SNOWING george? wow! no, here its alittle overcast but fine. tell me where you are again..... and I hope all the chocolate and bding pays off.
nice jokes munz
hope everyones well this morning?

piffle · 08/04/2005 11:34

nemo I tried the early hcg sticks fro ebay and got negs but tested + with predictor when pg last November before ectopic, so am a little sceptical about them, although I know those who have tested and got +
I was due on Tue/Wednesday but was going to wait til Monday, but am about to gave in and buy a test to do today and tomorrow morning.
Not got any Af signs but cannot say I have got any pg ones either, you know how you over analyse this Af week and I cannot be sure that I do not wake up nauseous everyday and I know my boobs burn before AF as well, so Who Bloody Knows
Arrghhh
when are your tests arriving nemo?

piffle · 08/04/2005 11:35

George just saw massive fluffy congrats to you!!!!!!!

romilly · 08/04/2005 11:54

munzie - i can only remember the kind of jokes that only very drunk guys should tell each other, so i'll spare you all (and yes, i do always muck up the punchline in true girly fashion )

piffle - oooooooooooh go on then, we'll be watching this space, babydust sprinkles coming your way

george32 · 08/04/2005 12:02

Hi Rom, didn't see you there. Yes, research on FF defintely aids the mental state about timing of BDing!!

What CD are you on now? I keep getting very confused as to where everyone is up to.

piffle · 08/04/2005 12:13

I ov late so on that peeonastick.com (great site btw) it says you may not get + til later anyway and also guff about luteal cysts causing delayed Af which would explain last mths blip in cycle.
George normally have 28 day cycle, last mth was 34, this month am on day 31 so still a bit early to be really excited but still enough to make me wonder...
Still may grab test when in town later today...
We'll see , of course you lot will be the first to know (after Dh lol)
fingers x'd anyone else testing too xxxx

romilly · 08/04/2005 13:02

yes piffle - get peeingonthatstick girl!

LOL nemo - how DID you find that site??!! and arent you the one who never used OPKs until recently if memory serves me correctly!

cadmum - get a persona, they are cheaper in the long run (not something any of us want to contemplate, admittedly) i go the whole hog and use the smileys and persona, LOL, because i'm deeply profligate and definitely suffering from ttc ocd

george - sorry missed you there too, i am on CD16 and 5DPO (research) or 3DPO (advanced) !!
how about you? i know you are Ov'ing but which CD?

OP posts:
munz · 08/04/2005 13:16

piffle- good luck hon got everything crossed for u!

romilly · 08/04/2005 13:30

munzie - go for 15% - if £900 is 7% your boss is meaaaaan!

OP posts:
munz · 08/04/2005 13:35

I hear u Rom! lol, I was thinking more along the £2K p/a extra actually that would be about 17% ish I think. will have to see about teh final figures, the extra cash comes in handy either way.

romilly · 08/04/2005 13:42

aim high munz! tell him you're worth it and then go on maternity leave for 6 months, LOL

OP posts:
george32 · 08/04/2005 13:58

Pay rise, what's a pay rise?!! Don't think I'll be seeing one of those in the near future (have to get back to work first I think!)
Definitely aim high Munz you have nothing to lose.

I'm on CD 26 Rom - it's been a long wait for me!!. I guess I test in a couple of weeks then? If you can deliver my order on 30th December that would be spot on!!

dramaqueen72 · 08/04/2005 14:19

gosh talk of payrises...as a sahm i NEVER get one of those!!!! v jealous....
george i used to live in aylesbury, year ans years ago..... so no, its NOt known for its artic weather round there! its freezing her but fine, iyswim.
thanks Rom, i'm not testing yet, actually totally confused as when i shoudl because not 100% sure of when af is due anyhow.... thursday? sat? sun? who bloody knows...
do you chat on ff? if so have you seen the big 'alica' saga?
I post on conceptions store sometimes (used to LIVE there LOL!) and it all kicked off there....
i designed my own fertility chart last night (was v bored) one without temps, so i can keep track of 'feelings' and 'signs' and compare and MAYBE notice pg v af. as they are so unfairly alike for me anyhow.

romilly · 08/04/2005 14:54

30th December is on the calendar george! is that your ff. due date?! mine says 25th Dec.

dqueen - i would happily swap all the pay rises and bonuses to be a SAHM, believe me. but i know the grass is always greener...

SO DQ pleeeeease tell me about the alica saga, i'm intrigued... i only ask the odd charting question on the VIP circle to guides - i dont have time to post on there as well as here, LOL - see why i need more time at home

OP posts:
sparkly · 08/04/2005 16:08

Hey gals, I haven't been around much since m/c in Feb. Still no AF since then so just waiting and waiting. We've just moved so thankfully that's keeping me busy and I'm not stressing so much about things.

Good luck to everyone!!!

romilly · 08/04/2005 17:15

hi sparkly - sorry you are still waiting for AF, hang in there, its always a little weird first month or two. welcome to the super-chatty cautious club. hope you like OPK's and chocolate
