    Congratulations lisabell!!!

    Hello to vicstar & aless02. Nice to have some new people joining (now I'm not the newbie - lol).

    My AF is due on wednesday & I already foolishly did a test 5 days early which was a BFN but now I'm really struggling to hold out till at least wednesday to test again. I'm sure I'm not going to be pregnant anyway so I don't know why I'm letting myself get so expectant! Argh. I'm so impatient!

    My close friend had a beautiful DD on Dec 23rd & I have spent yesterday & today with them & her DS which has just made me a million times more broody!!

    Baby dust to everyone.

    I think AF is about to show up tonight but I'm pleased because that means we can get started bd-ing :) There's no chance of me being pg this month as I was ill and we didn't BD at the "right" time this month :(

    Here's to next month and I hope everyone gets the results they want soon :)

    Oh and welcome to the new faces too :) I was a lurker on this thread for a while too but am excited to posting because it means we are now "officially" ttc :)

    For all you that test yourselves 2-3 times a month (:p), where do you buy your pregnancy tests cheaply? Do you get them 'in bulk'? This is a MSE board after all!

    Hi, yes a lot of us get them from ebay, I got 20 for £3 odd not so long ago, I posted a link further back on this thread if that helps. I think most people then only use more expensive ones if there is a positive on the cheap ones, to back it up. HTH!!

    Don't tell me that fattybooboo!! Wish I'd realised how cheap you can get them for before I spent £10 on a twin pack of FR. We have already used one which was a BFN & AF is due tomorrow so I am desperately holding out so that I don't waste the other one!

    My OH was pestering me to test againg this morning lol. I've told him it's tomorrwo at the very earliest. AF has been like clockwork for the past 3 months so I'm she doesn't show tomorrow!

    I read somewhere that women were more likely to get it for the first time ever when pg and in a second or subsequent pregnancy. Anyway, fingers crossed for the 9th when hopefully nasty af doesn't turn up

    I didn't know that bit about thrush. I've had it loads in the past, put a damper on bedroom activity but since I came off the pill I haven't had it so I'm hoping it was just connected to the pill.

    Welcome to Vicstar and Aless02. Vicstar - I am useless at getting up in the morning - I usually set my alarm 30mins before I have to get up :o so when I tried to do temping it was completely useless because I kept sleeping through my alarm. Been noticing the changes in CM more recently so next month I'm going to try and keep more of an eye on that.

    So best thing to probably do it buy a bunch of cheap (non-branded) ones off eBay plus 1 or 2 Name Brand (like ClearBlue, FirstResponse, etc.) to take only if you get a positive? I was thinking about getting those cheapie ones but was concerned they might not provided the most accurate results...sounds like a good idea!! Thanks.

    I'm still on a weird AF/breakthrough bleeding point right now since I JUST got my implant removed, so not even started 'trying' officially yet - once that stops then I'm sure the bedroom will become very busy indeed!
