Hi Ladies
CD1 for me so back in the game - wooo!
I'm going to be full of PMA and tempt fate this cycle, so can I be put down for testing on May 30th - my birthday

Thanks for the tips ladies. I'll check out Boots for the Conceive stuff..thanks Tink..I didn't want to have to order the Preseed stuff online and have to wait too long for it to arrive. Would I find it near all the pregnancy related stuff in there, or do I have to ask behind the counter?

Sorry you're having a worrying time Tink..had a look on the 12 week board earlier. Fingers crossed all is well. Keep that PMA going!

I tried Preseed for the first time this month and it was really good...felt quite natural. Think DH liked it even more than me though . It comes with applicators which are easy to use or you can just use it like a normal lubricant. I ordered from ebay it arrived in a couple of days. I might try the Conceive Plus stuff to compare once we're out of the pre-seed. Hopefully we won't need it though .

I've just bought some of the Conceive Plus from Boots. It cost £14.99.

Will give that a go next time we BD, which hopefully will be tomorrow night

Yay!!! go for it. :j

CD4 here, AF has gone, so I'm planning when I'm going to pounce this month. DH beware! :eek:
Gonna work out a new testing date when I have a minute...have actually been doing proper work in work this week, which is something of a novelty for me. At least I don't have to make my timesheet up this time!

Can anyone tell me of any experiences with a false negative test please?

My friend is having all the symptoms of pregnancy, nausea, backache, headache, tender breasts and she is utterly exhausted all of the time.

I've got 2 children and never had a false negative test before but she has looked on the internet and said it is common???

Anyhow, she is a week late and did a test today and it was negative. She is sure she is pregnant though. I don't know what to advise. Any help much appreciated.

Many thanks for reading.

Its generally advised to wait a few days, a week if she can until she does another test and she should use FMU(First Morning Urine) as it'll be concentrated at this time than the rest of the day so will have a better chance of picking up the hcg, especially if its early days and her hormone levels are low. HTH

ETA: hope all you girlies are ok and pls try and keep up the PMA :) should be much easier with the glorious weather we're having!! Sticky babydust to all xx

Many thanks confuzzled. I will advise her to wait a week and then test next week FMU.

I didn't even know you could get a false negative test let alone it is common! How times change!

unfortunately they are quite common, bloody annoying really especially when you're actually trying to get pg!:p Whats rare is getting a false positive, now that would screw you up!:eek:
Tell your friend to relax and try not to think/stress about it(easier said than done!:)) as this could be delaying her period if she's not pregnant. Also if she needs to buy more tests tell her to find the one with a lower Mlu, the lower the mlu the more sensitive it is I got my +ive off a morrisons own brand which was approx 20mlu whereas the clearblue(digital especially) are nearer the 50mlu mark so not as sensitive.
