    oxo - I'll only test if my AF is a few days late - otherwise I won't bother - waste of a test, surely!??

    Absolutely the best approach (for sanity as well as finances)...doubt I'll make it beyond Fri tho if no sign of AF by then :o.

    Murray - what's a "m" mean - I don't have a monitor....

    I think it must be 'm' for menstruation - you press the m button to set it to CD1 and then an m appears on the screen for a few days. The m then dissapears until it starts flashing towards the end of your cycle (to warn you that AF might be on her way!).

    Sorry, all this cbfm talk must get a bit tiring for the people that dont use it - I'll try to tone it down a bit :o
    Really, I dont have much else to say, the CBFM is the highlight of my day! :p

    Morning girls

    QQ - she shouldn't have dressed her in blue then!! I'd have assumed she was a boy too!

    Perdi - it will happen - keep the faith sweetie.

    CD21 for me - 6/7 days to go to see if I'm late. :)

    xDx

    CD22 for me - nearly cycle buddies. I'm expecting AF a week tomorrow. I have me down on the testing list for 7th June though - a whole week after because I had one period where I was 7 days late and wasted 2 expensive tests, and numerous ICs.

    I'm having one of those days where I want to tell people that I'm TTC. OH has told a couple of ladies at work, but it's OK for him as being a man it's not like he'll be having months off work. I can't tell anyone at work for fear of the bosses finding out. We're only a small company.

    No problem. You're just making me jealous though! I want a gadget!

    Does anyone live near the Surrey/Hampshire border?

    There is a horrible grey/yellow cloud with ash falling around. Can't see any signs of a fire, but there is a smell of burning. The 'cloud' is completely covering us at the moment. It's very weird.

    I'm feeling a bit reckless at the moment and wanting to tell people too. You lot are great support but its nice to be able to talk to people in RL too - I've told my bf recently and its nice to have her support & I think some of my others friends have guessed from my reduced alcohol intake! I'm not going to tell too many though and certainly not family because I dont want the pressure of their excitment too!

    Sorry, I'm East Mids. Just had a look on the local bbc news website but doesn't say anything about a fire - perhaps its from the volcano ;)

    Yes, I finally found that too. I'm in Farnborough, so Lightwater is miles away from us - probably a good 10 - 15 miles. I can't believe the amount of ash we're getting and the smoke in the sky is incredible. So much for our sunny day :(

    I can't wait to start:o
    I better wake up a bit early that morning, so I could set it up.

    We have an en-suite bathroom which no-one uses (we use the family shower room), so I'm going to set up my CBFM there:)
    I've put my spare hairbrush, toothbrush, toothpaste etc so that I could do the morning stuff there while I wait;) OH could use the family shower room as usual:p
