    Good morning,
    Up early today. No rest for the wicked!!

    I just wanted to say to Mennie- obviously it is only you and your husband who can make a decision how you go forward with your quest for a child. And I am all for not giving up and trying again because as everyone says it is luck of the draw (and genetics) how the baby is. However, I have a friend who couldn't get PG naturally and they decided to adopt. They now have this MOST adorable little boy that amuses everyone at parties with his crazy danzing etc. I don't know the ins and outs of their adoption process but i think it did take them quite a long time. But I think they are now the happiest parents in the world. And I think the little boy has been living with them for about 2 years now (he wasn't a baby when they got him) and it's like there's been nothing different to the ordinary parenthood. Sending big hugs to you anyway

    So ... how much hope do we have in very faint lines?? I POAS this morning (14DPO) as I said I would and for the first time in my life got a very faint line. I could see it straight away without squinting or anything but when i tried to take a photo with my mobile phone camera, it doesn't show. It does show on my normal camera though. I thought I'd be jumping for joy but for some reason I don't think it's true. I've got a CB digital pg test at home as well but I'm afraid to try that in case it says not pg. should I wait a couple of days and try again?

    It did work. it said 1-2 weeks pregnant. :shocked:

    still feeling very calm. had a chat with DH. I guess cos it's been 13 months, it's a little hard to believe. and it can still be chemical pregnancy I guess.

    Congratulations Kairi, thats great news! There must be something in the air with the bfps on the other TTC board too. Those cb digi's are fab - how did ladies TTC cope in the days before home pg tests?!

    I did an IC pg test earlier and BFN - wish I hadnt done it now :(

    Thanks!! This was my first cycle of clomid. I still don't really believe it. I've decided to test again in a weeks time to give me peace of mind.
