    Everything I've heard about the CBFM has been positive.

    Worth the spondoolies I reckon..may invest in one myself if we dont get lucky in the next month or two.
    I think I'll get it in June if BFN;)

    Just a quickie about CBFM mine only ever shows me as have increased fertility never shows peak (ov) have heard others say the same.

    The month I got my BFP it only ever showed an increase so I did OV but it did not pick it up and never has done since.

    Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa...

    Forgive me ladies for I have sinned. It has been 3 months since my last transgression...

    Since we're moving in the not too distant future I decided to have a bit of a clear-out, and a couple of minutes ago found the last of my ICs. Of course, I had to wee on it even though AF isnt due til Wednesday. After last time, I'm not accepting anything other than a strong line, so BFN as expected. It's lying there mocking me with its one line going "hahahaha, if I had a friend you'd get to have a baby. Mwahahahaha. You'll never see my twin line. Never. Mwahahahahaha".

    You may all shout at me.

    Don't beat yourself up Tiger, I've done them knowing I'm not pg too. It's just something you have to do. I'm not in to the testing list thing as I've not done it before or the 2WW - I know when she comes (AF) I aint!

    I know on the CBFM I bought it at Christmas and this is the first time the eggy symbol has shown. I'm guessing as a pill taker that my body hadn't settled til now and I had my first period since august which required tampon(s) this month. My cycles have been light and varied and I always figure I can flog it on afterwards.

    I'm excited about eggy but not hopeful of DTD. Hey ho. Where's my Monster Munch???

    Good luck! But not knowing one is preg until 6 months must've been exciting:o Did you think you were ill?

    Fingers crossed:)


    No, not at all - it was a bit of a shock! I did a test when AF didn't appear, but it was negative, so thought nothing of it, same again next two months, but as I definitely wasn't pregnant according to the tests, put the lack of AF down to stress etc... I was very fit then, with good tummy muscles, so had no bump, and put all the other symptoms (didn't have many, but did have some, looking back) down to other things, as 4 seperate tests came back negative, until in the end I went to the doctor, and within a minute of finding out I was pregnant, I was listening to my baby's heartbeat. It was very surreal, and I'm hoping that this time, if it happens, will be a bit calmer :)

    Quick update AF started properly this morning and Oh my God the pain _pale_ forgot what pill-free periods were like :(. On the up side I can start taking proper note about when things are happening ready to properly start ttc.

    Have a lovely day and take care x
