Hardly the most original title but I didn't want to loose anyone (well that's my excuse for the lack of originality!)

You're not being a dick at all, Cheepz. FFS, all of us on this thread have gone through a whole heap of shit which means testing throws up a whole range of emotions, both good and bad. I can completely understand why you're avoiding it, so take all the time you need.

MrsR - I know you're having a bit of a bad time of it at the moment, but try not to take it out on the rest of the girls here, hon.

MrsRigby · 13/01/2010 14:07

Oh god cheepz no, I didn't mean it that way. Sorry .

I don't think your being a dick about this.

boodleboot · 13/01/2010 14:13

ah good, all peaceful again in looneytunesland....cos lets face it, when it comes to this TTC lark we are all a bit fookin mental!!!!

MrsRigby · 13/01/2010 14:14

I think it's probably time to leave this thread - finally offended someone.

cheepz I'm sorry. Good luck, I've got my fingers crossed for you .

Effilump · 13/01/2010 14:23

Good luck cheepz im all excited for you! And dont even think of leaving MrsR We all get pee'd off and snappy sometimes,Its no big deal, im sure you didnt intentionally try to offend or hurt anyone.

boodleboot · 13/01/2010 14:28

crikey.....the amount of hormones flying round this thread its amazing that we haven't all ended up in a big pile of biting, scratching and hair pulling way before now

Cheepz · 13/01/2010 14:56

don't worry mrsr and dont dare go anywhere - we would all miss your special brand of input - gotta take the rough with the fighteningly candid and sometimes downright outragous smooth.

If I was having to put up with listening to me and my will i won't i am i arn't i - I would be muttering ffs just get on with it ...

as viv said - throws up alot, but i will try and get to tesco / boots on the way home and be brave about it. xxxxx

louisesh · 13/01/2010 15:08

Good luck CHEEPZ heres grinning at you OMG how horrible is this weather????? Everywhere's like a skating rink and work really busy this a m....why do people need their appointments with us when the weathers soo bad?????? Its beyond me!!!

Cd15 managed to BD cds 7,9,11 and 12 planning to BD tonight ...But as you all know thinking i don t really want to risk ANOTHER pregnancy where i ll miscarry due to my chromosonal problem

VIV i ve used clearblue ovulation tests for the last year and always ovulated[either with the smiley face of 2 lines] I ve always found them very useful for me...

Hi to everyone else....Hope you re well BOODLE

VivClicquot · 13/01/2010 15:18

Hmmm. Some sneaky googling tells me that it's perhaps not best to test with your first pee of the day, and that people have better luck doing it in the afternoon. Maybe I'll test twice today and tomorrow, just in case...

Is not getting obsessed. Much

Cheepz · 13/01/2010 15:26

wow just noticed we are 65 posts away from a spanking new thread - vol3!!! Jeez we make alot of posts!!!

thats good googling viv and good to know

LeeWT · 13/01/2010 16:30

Ive just read the past few pages of posts and my god, peer pressure or wha?!

Cheepz I hereby withdraw my previously applied peer pressure .. we are here if and when you test.. I think you're doing great..

And MrsR dont worry, everyone knows you didnt mean anything and boodle you made me laugh when i imagined an online, hormone-induced brawl - hahahaha

As for crazy me, even tho i got a bfn couple days ago AND i have typical-af cramps, i am regretting not bringing a couple of internet cheapies with me on my trip. And let me tell you Nanna's house has a veritable pharmacy of medical equipment, pills, lidquid morphine, bacardi, baileys but no preg tests so i'll wait til tomor when af is due if it hasnt arrived..

VivClicquot · 13/01/2010 16:44

wears 'Good Googling Badge' with pride

Cheepz · 13/01/2010 17:59

BFFN so thats that.

Cheepz · 13/01/2010 18:16

that would be a big fat FUCKING negative - just to avoid any ambiguity

MrsRigby · 13/01/2010 18:29

Sorry.

sunburntats · 13/01/2010 18:39

You've gotta be init to winnit so they say...SO im back init.

Officially began the whole thing again this week.

OOOh i cant help having a teeny tiny excited feeling in my tummy about the possibilities. Keep thinking that maybe this time next year i might have a baby.

I have conciously only written down when af arrived, nothing else, no "CD" days or anything like that, i intend to remain calm and non obsessional

I bought a pregnancy test and have written all over it the 28th Feb, i dont care what happens i will NOT test until that date.

willpower willpower willpower.....

Hope every one is ok.

sunburntats · 13/01/2010 18:44

cheepz i feel your pain hun, its gutting every month to get a bfn, especially if your body is lying to you making you think that you are pregnant. Its evil pure evil
been there for what feels like years.

here, have a hug (((())))

SamanthaB123 · 13/01/2010 18:48

Cheepz I'm really sorry and I do understand how you feel...I started my period half way through the morning and I feel lousy, emotionally and physically. I don't really want to talk to anyone at the moment, sorry. At least I can drink the wine guilt free. .

Cheepz · 13/01/2010 18:56

will do second test in the morning to be sure but at 16dpo you got to know its not test sensitivity or any of that shite - have googled and realised i bought least sensitive test on markey - Answer One Step from corner pharmacy only detects 100mIU but even so at 16 or at best 15dpo should be over that... so even if I am pregnant and thats why I am late I am not making enough HCG so its all going to end in tears...

have never had strong positivies on HPTs,so perhaps not a big HCG producer but have had faint lines before at this stage ...

I kept thinking it was going to be a long cycle, and I kept reminding myself I have zero symptoms, but as the days tick by..

mrsr no need for and

now just waiting for AF

boodleboot · 13/01/2010 19:36

gah. dammit. cheepz that is a setback....but not over until AF arrives.....just hold on. HCG 1st levels aren't really an indicator as can be anything between 5-426 at 4 weeks so you could be entirely normal today at way less than 100....

sam....the witch got you, so sorry.....its a shite feeling.

louisesh · 13/01/2010 20:03

Sorry ,sorry, sorry CHEEPZ and SAMB

randomimposter · 13/01/2010 20:08

pants
bugger
arse
sorry cheepz (whispers almost inaudibly "it isn't over yet though", runs away before cheepz smacks her over the head with any available blunt implement) and sam...

hope all ok with everyone else

Cheepz · 13/01/2010 20:12

thanks boodle trust me to choose the least sensitive HPT in the world...

now have broken testing barrier will go for higher sensitivity test tomorrow. any recommendations - as long as not digital!!

did 2nd test to be sure was not a testing error - from cup rather than stream as read that improves accuracy, and read instructions properly, but still no 2nd line - even though I keep thinking I can see one! its just not there!

all this begs the question - where the hell is AF - monitor normally flashes only one or two days before she arrives, am usually very regular...

Cheepz · 13/01/2010 20:15

and bloody my monthly cycles which I use to track my cycle says I am 3 days late

i know jolls (reaches for baseball bat) but its not looking rosy!

arse about sums it up right

Hope you are holding up ok samb

Cheepz · 13/01/2010 20:30

Found this info on HCG levels (mIU/ml) and feel abit better - if have low HCG might not hit 100 until 19dpo (I am 15/16) so actually even on the average it wouldn't show, esp if I am only on 15dpo

dpo Average High low
14 48 119 17
15 59 147 17
16 95 223 33
17 132 429 17
18 292 758 70
19 303 514 111
20 522 1690 135
21 1061 4130 324
22 1287 3279 185
23 2034 4660 506
24 2637 10000 540

clutching at straws - well maybe!!!! deluding myself to avoid the inevitable angst of dealing with reality of BFFN, definitely - but I also wanted to steal vivs 'good googling badge, and useful for future refence as well.
