Trying For a Baby II
Comments

Just seen this post about HPTs on baby and bump website and it made me giggle, thought I'd copy it over for you all to have a giggle along with me.
HPT instructions:
Step 1...Pee on the stick. (must be sure to hold it under urine stream for a heartbeat longer than recommended just to be sure).
Step 2...Stare at stick while you continue peeing. Feel heart jump when urine passes over the spot where the line would be and it hitches for a second, then gets a dark line...then keeps going, taking your dark line with it to the test window.
Step 3...Place on bathroom counter. Pretend not to stare at it. Let's try to give yourself busy work to keep from looking at it. In fact, your toilet now gets cleaned once per day.
Step 4...Tell yourself you are expecting a BFN. Then start to mist up when you see that it is, in fact, a BFN. Stare at the blank spot for a full minute before picking it up.
Step 5...First, go to window and check it under day light.
Step 5...Now, stand on toilet to be closer to light in ceiling. Check strip.
Step 6...Close one eye. Squint other eye.
Step 7...Turn on several lamps around house. Hold strip under lamp. Check strip.
Step 8...Hold strip OVER lamp. Check strip.
Step 9...Hold strip in front of lamp so light shines THROUGH strip, just in case.
Step 10...Pull stick apart. Hesitate for a heartbeat when you realize you are holding the still wet "wick" in one hand, then continue the destruction.
Step 11...Repeat Steps 5-9.
Step 12...Throw stick away.
Step 13...Pick stick back up out of trash.
Step 14...Repeat Steps 12 and 13 the rest of the day!
Tee hee... hope u all dont mind me clogging up the board :rotfl:

That's so true :rotfl:
Beware I feel a rant coming on!
Just had 2 days high on CBFM, and then a peak & EWCM this morning. DH has still got a spot of man flu so no BDing over last 2 days, but rang me from work to say he's ready! By the time I got home - too sick again - and today the best day . . . .. I just want to cry, and then smack myself for being so selfish:mad:2009 total raised £2373.60:jthe new garden beat me in 2010 just £1306.66:o2011 - 365 £ a day.

If it was a woman then they'd force themselves, but a man with man flu you've got more chance of getting blood from a stone.
Just remember today next time he feels like it.0 -

Hehe! Yup, I'll have to try that one next time!
How is everyone doing? I've been working flat out this week and feel like I could sleep all weekend! Well, at least there are some benefits to having the bed to myself :rotfl:
Fingers crossed that you can all get BDing this weekend even though I can't!0 -
convince him that it makes him feel better oh has man flu and eventually i bullied him into it and he felt much better after it lol0

Maybebaby - even a faint line is a positive! Call it a TLP (tiny little positive) if you like, but both of my pregnancies started with a very faint line that was hardly there - it will get darker as the days go on.
Congratulations!

I've been lurking again but not posting, trying to avoid you lot tbh:o...but in the nicest way possible of course:D:D
This month is pretty much a write off for me, trying to be in the house at the same time has been difficult so any extra-curricular activity has been a big fat 'can't be ar*ed':mad: We're both to blame I suppose but it does annoy me, oh well next month it is:rolleyes:
Ooo I won't be on this weekend(dirty weekend away:p) so......
Happy Anniversary to those who are celebrating:D:D I know theres a couple of you just can't remember who, sorry:o
