I would not buy the Savers two for 99p ones. THey both came up negative for me even tho I was (am!) pregnant. I got a predictor one from Home BArgains for £3.49 (£8.79 in Boots) and that came up positive on the same day!

Hi MCT
the official line is that a couple in Inverness tried to sue after they got told the wrong sex but it was on the BBC website a couple of months ago that it is a moneysaving thing as it takes 2-3 min per scan to find out the sex and this way they can scan more people every day.....

Not sure what to believe might be a combination of the above and some unknown factors. I am not that bothered about finding out but as dh really wants to know I have agreed to find out as long as we keep it to ourselves and do not tell others.

Emma will keep my fingers crossed for you!!! Let us know what happens!

Not that I'm that large...

Our IVF clinic will not treat any woman with a Body Mass Index of over 35 - they say that over that figure that the embryos tend not to implant as well, and you're more likely to have a miscarriage.

But there are always women who disprove the statistics.

Mines 36. And I concieve FAR too easily.

And thats down from 38 a few months ago, but I need to drop it by a few more points over the next few months.
A diet whilst pregnant, Mmmmmm. Doc say I can do a weightwatchers scheme with an approval letter from her and will probably take her up on it.

I've had loads of the ones from savers but I only get 1 for my £1. I think they are ok, maybe you got a duff batch?

I've had the cheap ones before and they came up negative. Just get it done at the dr's - it's free!!!!!

Have you had your MAT B1 form from your midwife yet? I had to remind my midwife both times. Basically it's got your due date on it and you give it to your employer (I gave a copy). I think you also need it if you need to claim benefits and I think if you have a particularly tricky pharmacist and you try to get your prescription free they may ask to see it.

Knowing my luck I'll be craving the stuff even more, if that's possible, should I get pregnant. And you can't deny the baby...

I wish I realised how large I am... I have a sort of reverse anorexia - inside I feel much slimmer than the mirror and photos prove ...
