Toniq, May is so soon!:j Good luck:)
Chickpea, you are supposed to use a digi when you are sure you are pg and after you've tested with a regular hpt:o (((Hugs))) for BFN.
Our time will come:cool:

I know - I just wanted to pee on something different..

Congratulations Ckerry! Good news after your long wait!

My oh my - are we by any chance beating the Fertiles' thread for BFPs in March so far?!

+++++++++

Still no AF, due right around now. Still BFN tho.

So convinced it will remain a BFN that I have gone and ordered myself this month's 'BFN present' to make myself feel better - this month, it's a silver Dinny Hall Lotus leaf pendant to match some earrings my husband bought last birthday for me.

Every BFN month should have a silver lining I reckon!

Murray - AF still away?

I feel your pain Chickpea!!!

Yes I do think you are right about treating ourselves after every BFN. Its a shame my AF isn't in sync with payday - or maybe its a blessing. I bought a sofa last month (it was a hormonal pucrhase)

And after mentioning that steak and wine - well its all I can think about. So tonght I am making a wine night. After a hard week at work and I will be having a quiet weekend I will treat myself. I know its not good to have alcohol - especially as I am coming into my fertile window but I still have yeast infection so not sure I'll be able to DTD this month anyway. I bought a Canestan tablet (so not very MSE - £11 for one pill) a few weeks ago but it said on the pack not to take if you are TTC so I didn't take it (I made OH take it LOL). But I had to buy myself one this week (it was baaaad) and took it yesterday and I am not sure what the consequences are. I haven't OV'd yet but maybe thats ruined my chances this month.

Congrats Cedrickerry. I remember you when I used to stalk this page before I got the courage to post

:eek: I don't know if I could get away with that one:D

Hope it clears soon. I think Canestan creams are OK, but not the pill if you think you may be pg.

Nice choice chickpea!

Just had my acupuncture, well-timed as have a smiley face on my clearblue digital. I had one left from last month which I poased this morning, and then promptly left in the bathroom adn forgot to check. Dammit! I had to go and buy a whole new £21 pack from Boots and then of course I was smiley face straight away. What a waste of money, if only I'd looked this morning!

Not that I'm complaining about getting a positive. Now just got to pin down DH - he's out gigging tonight!

Have fun tonight Sarah:j

Ha ha. I never really have fun any more when BDing to get pg - that's terrible isn't it? I have been known to turn to DH and say, 'hurry up, you're not here to have fun you know!'

I know what you mean:p

We don't BD for ttc at all now, since he has to save up his swimmers for a week before the IUI:o
I'm CD22, 8DPO, had BD'd once 7 days before ov/IUI and once after IUI.
We'll probably get one or two in before AF:o

DH was always a once a week man anyway, and I have low drive. We go well together:cool:
As it's not for ttc, we do enjoy it:D
