    Also wondering if any of you have heard of or used pre-seed and what you thought of it?

    I have tried pre-seed once and it was ok. I haven't tried it more than once purely because once in the throes of passion I don't stop and think 'oh must put pre seed in' :D

    Its known firstly as a lubricant but can help couples conceive because it has the same PH as semen and fertile cervical mucus so it won't harm the sperm at all.
    On the pre seed website there are testimonials from couples who have been trying for sometime only to use pre seed around ov time and have got pregnant. I'm not sure I believe testimonials though so I'll leave that for you to decide :D

    I am on CD4 but my AF keeps on stopping & starting & is much lighter than normal. TMI but I normally use 4 -5 super tampons every 24 hours, I am now down to 3 regular & these probably don't need changing as often as I am doing.

    I have just had some ebay cheapie OV tests delivered & just tried one which has come out with two lines on it, I never OV before CD15 -17.

    I have read that some of you use OV tests as HPT, how dark are the lines when you do this?

    I have done a cheapie HPT which was -ve, I just don't know what to think.

    Hi Natalie, how dark was the line ont he OV test? I almost always get a line irregardless of the CD, just v faint, which is apparently quite normal as the hormone it tests for is always present just more so when there is a surge pre ov.

    My OV tests were coming out darker than my HPT's when I used them after my m/c (& I definetely wasn't ov'ing), they weren't a prper positive for an ov test ie result line darker than the control line but they kept showing a reasonable result line until about the same time as my HPT started to show negative.

    Are you using an ebay cheapie ov & HPT? With my last pregnancy my ebay cheapy showed the most feint positive ever but when I used a FR it came up straight away & very dark - not of course that I am advocating buying FR as they are very expensive & not very MS!!!!;)

    There is a chance you could have had a chemical pregnancy I suppose, which would explain AF & maybe why you are getting a positive on a Ov test, or you could be pregnant & too early to show on a HPT yet, or it could be a faulty Ov test. Not a very definitive answer I'm afraid.:o

    Morning ladies! Hey Nikabella :)

    Well AF nice and heavy still, not very comfortable but off for a couple of days with my bf, going to see if she has a bump yet, so that will be lovely and i am hoping not to have an emotional breakdown, but feeling strong and really really excited.
    As i said earlier, at least getting AF on time following the mc makes my head feel better about everything, all is working well and we can go for it full steam ahead this month.

    I hope you all have a fab day and weekend, loads of bding and lets see what next week brings.

    Very sticky baby dust to all :):):):):);)

    Morning everyone!
    Not to happy this morning, work haven't paid my sick pay :(
    Which they said they would, so i only got 2 days pay which i have to pay my credit card, rent, shopping and holiday spending money out of!! I get paid weekly :(

    But i wont be able to access next weeks pay next week as i'll be in spain.

    Anyway, did an OV test last night, got a faint line. So i dont know if thats the start of my lines getting darker until i get a + or if its acting as a hpt dectecing old pregnancy hormones :confused:
    I've kept it though to compare it to tonights one :D

    Is everyone having a good morning?
    Its raining down here, making me happy that while im in spain, portsmouth will have poopy weather :rotfl:

    The last time i drank was at mine and OH's engagment party in January and i haven't drank since :p

    But prob will on holiday now hehe.

    I think its meant to be sunny here, and rainy on sunday and monday, but the rain this morning proved otherwise. I dont mind so much though, im at work until 8pm so hopefully it will stop by then :D

    How are you today?
