    SK - You're quite right. It's not your business, so if I were you I just wouldn't give a carp!! When you get your BFP, let your employer do the worrying - you don't get paid enough for that!

    Laura - big hugs - hope everything is ok.

    10 more mins and I'm off home for some more BD'ing :j. I actually don't think I have the energy for anymore after tonight for at least a week :rotfl:. The things us ladies do lol.

    Oh, and Astro - RELAX!!!!!!!! :D

    Wow - loads of BFPs!! Congratulations to Astro :j and of course everyone else.

    I'm on CD24, fertility friend didn't manage to detect OV this week due to my erratic BBT timings and temps all over the place. However it looks like I OV'd around CD17 - right at the end of 3 days without BDing :( why do I always have to OV midweek during busy weeks at work?

    The good thing is that now I've got bored of the temping and trying to spot OV element of the month, its not long until AF is due. As usual I've had possible symptoms but they are also my normal AF symptoms :rolleyes:.

    With that in mind, I think I'll test on Tue 3rd - please can I be put on the testing list? Knowing me I'll probably test on Sunday instead - but OH is lecturing for the first time on Monday so I should probably spare him the potential stress (i imagine its still kind of stressful even if its what u want) of finding out I'm pregnant just before hand.
    Proud to be a moneysaver! :cool:

    Hi all,

    So pleased at all the BFPs in October - thats great - congratulations to you all!

    On CD 34 but very confused! I used my CBFM and BDd on the 'two ovulation days' window as suggested. I normally have a 31 day cycle, so 3 days late, and have had very faint spotting for the last 3 days, but no AF.

    I have had no other symptoms, but I have never ever had spotting before, and I am 3 days late, so I took a test this morning, but got a BFN :(

    I don't feel pg, but I've never been pg before, and I guess a bfn is the answer, but I'm confused as to why I'm so late and getting the spotting!

    Also pleased but upset, as my neigbour put a scan through my door as an explanation as to why she has been acting wierd, and it caught me out of the blue - she is early 40s and her bf a lot older - it was a complete accident.

    As both OH and I have never had children, I just can't help worrying that we won't be able to!

  • HI Earthgirl - I'm in the same sort of situation as you...never been preg before so kind of flying blind a bit!

    Did an early response test last week, got BFN, did another test yesterday as P hadnt arrived..BFN again.

    So now 2 days late, still no sign of AF...guess will have to wait until the end of the week and if nothingt shows test again.

    I'm also worrying that I have left it too late (I'm 36)...but people on here have been really great and helped me calm down a bit.

    How old are you btw?

    Hi, I'm also on CD34 and normally have a 28 day cycle. I didn't have any symptoms when I was pregnant with my son but I also got a BFP on the first day of that missed period. I don't know what to do, i've been testing like a maniac but still BFN. Don't know what to do :o

    I'm 29 but OH is 41. I have PCOS.

    Thanks for your post makes me feel that someone else is as confused with their body as me!

    I know I should be more positive, but I don't want to be too postive and get bad news every month!

    I will do the same and test on Friday / Sat.
