MORNING! mishi I emailed you this mornings because I'm going mad here!
cadmum, okay I havent got a CAt from you. just mail me, its mel@xeis dot net. I dont know WHY my Cat hasnt come thro, maybe it will all come thro at once? but anyhow, if you'd like to see mail me. I think its darker today, but then I'm thinking toooooo much. this morning i asked dh who said it was def a line but we should wait a couple of days to get it darker, bless him for knowing that! my concern is its not dark enough, low HCG isnt good so i'm hoping its because its early. thursdays test should be more helpful as i can compare it to tuesdays and 'should' see a big difference. sigh. wish it had just been a resounding yes and not quite so 'is it/isnt it?'
this is a reason NOT to test early guys!!!!!!! af is due thursday to sunday remember.
well just wanted to check in before getting up properly to update you all. I STILL DONT KNOW 100%. !

Bella23 · 13/04/2005 08:57

I can't take the suspense!!! DQ - I have CAT you my e-mail as need to see what the test looks like.
Poor you, are you holding it together?
I would say a line is a line, surely there wouldn't be one at all if the hormone isn't there? Also you are testing really early so I would say that its just going to get stronger over the next few days

rosies · 13/04/2005 09:13

hi ladies,

sorry i have been away for a few days.

just had a quick flick through this...

who asked if reflexology tickles? no it shouldnt. the pressure should be comfortable, not painful. sometimes there are sensitive spots, can be very tender, but imo, it should never hurt. always say if its uncomfortable. this helps us to determine areas of problem and also, we should adjust our pressure to suit your thesholds.

who pays £37 an hour??? omg! i'm sorry but this is excessive. i live in north surrey and even there i only charge £25. i even do deals for ongoing treatments. thing is, if you go to a clinic or spa, they have overheads... but even so, thats OTT.

never be worried about what you say to your therapist. they are there to help you. the more you say, the better it is for you also... have you ever found that verbalising stuff helps you realise it and come to terms with it? kinda of sorts things out in your own mind? apart from that, again, as a therapist, it helps us to recognise our clients needs and can often identify emotional imbalances.

not saying it applies here and i am in no way a councellor, but sometimes, even when we "think" its something we want, our bodies dont believe us and "put a block" on it... just a thought.

hmmm hope that covers a few things.

enjoy your treatments those having them!

Bella23 · 13/04/2005 09:31

Rosies - thanks for that info, really helps. You have made me realise that I am going to just tell the lady the truth, let all my feelings come out. I am indeed going to have to pay £37 and the lady is working out of a clinic. I didn't realise that this was a lot, I just figured it was because it was London!
I shall let you know how it goes xx

george32 · 13/04/2005 09:33

Hi all,
DQ am I right in thinking you have taken another test this morning? Can you e-mail me the picture? I'm sure a line is a line, no matter how faint, which means a BFP!!

You must be going mad with wondering!
Babydust needed immediately to strengthen that line

Bella23 · 13/04/2005 09:34

DQ - right have seen the test pic. They are the same tests that I use and the only time I have ever had a line visible was when I pregnant. It was indeed faint and the next day I bought a clearblue.
I would say a line is a line, no matter how feint, I reckon you are definately a winner!! I know you will feel cautious but get a clearblue on Friday and it will be clear as crystal !!!!

Nemo1977 · 13/04/2005 09:35

dq hun get ur arse onto the dec thread
i swear it is darker than yesterday but defffooooooooooooo there

piffle · 13/04/2005 09:43

tis all over for me today grrrr
So I am now stuck with a 35 day cycle, that's a whole OTHER week to wait. Still on the bright side as dh said one ot two af's less per yr. Also
might have to chart this month to sort out ov dates.
I hate obsessing over this it really takes over your life, think dh thinks I'm potty.
So here we go again...........

Bella23 · 13/04/2005 09:45

Arh Piffle, its hard isn't it! I do think you should chart, it makes you feel in charge.

george32 · 13/04/2005 09:49

Don't worry Piffle, I'm up to a 42 day cycle again!! It is hideous as the waiting time is sooo much longer. Anyone know if there are any magical vegetables I can take to make it shorter?
FF decided my O day has changed again, now going for Monday rather than Sat, so now I'm only 3 DPO.

DQ, please send me the picture.............

munz · 13/04/2005 09:55

3 time bloody lucky - the boss keeps walking about, bloody work! anyhow.

DQ - good luck girl, have everything crossed for you.

(only 5 more days to go for me, have a good feeling about this month as well!)

girlfromip · 13/04/2005 10:21

DQ, can't bear the suspense at all - absolutely everything crossed for you. I might not be able to look again today, it's too much for me, god knows what it must be like for you!

Nemo1977 · 13/04/2005 10:32

DQ where are u woman??
lol

george32 · 13/04/2005 11:49

DQ, where have you gone????

Nemo1977 · 13/04/2005 11:51

i want to know too cos im sitting here waiting...lol
Ds is making a toy bomb of the house but im waiting for dq

Bella23 · 13/04/2005 11:53

I am getting an image of DQ running round the house in her PJs with her hair stuck out screaming "I need to know" Perhaps the neighbours have called the men in white coats...........

Nemo1977 · 13/04/2005 11:54

bella the pic she sent me today is a lot clearer and deffo there

Bella23 · 13/04/2005 11:58

Nemo - yes also seen pic this morning but me thinks she is not going to be satisfied until it gets alot darker over the next few days.

george32 · 13/04/2005 12:03

PMSL @ Bella!!
So it's another line today then? Mishi, I think you have someone to join you on the Dec thread!!
DQ, DQ, tell us it's a BFP!!
You don't think DQs computer has finally blown up do you? Would be terrible timing!!

Nemo1977 · 13/04/2005 12:04

oo noooooo dont say that...pleeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssseeeeeeeeeee

romilly · 13/04/2005 12:28

ok, i've been absolutely dying to get on here this morning - what's up???? DQ - is it or isnt it???? this is like one of those cliff-hanger endings in mini-series, when it says "to be continued...." right at the most annoying point. i damn well hope it is - esp. with all the hard slog i've been putting in at head office, LOL...

DQ - i know its maybe stating the obvious (and maybe i didnt read all the posts thoroughly) but if you are getting a nearly-line on the "on call" tests (are those the ones you're using?) why not go get a digital clearblue and see what comes up? you know the emphatic pg/ not pg ones.

as for me, i'm CD21, 8DPO - so right behind you DQ. but feeling cause i didnt do it once in the O-time 48 hours -not even a measly once! on that point, aren't the little wriggly fellows a bit depleted if you go for the x 6 marathon? surely AM and PM is enough?

romilly · 13/04/2005 12:31

i'm gonna ask the experts at ff. about the six-timer myth - cause its causing me great concern

Nemo1977 · 13/04/2005 12:32

romilly · 13/04/2005 12:34
