Morning all! I tested again this morning - couldn't hold out until Wednesday. As the test was another positive (not as strong as the test line, but unmistakable) and AF has not come...and I am always very very regular, I'm happy to say it's a BFP for me! I can't believe it. Now I feel really nervous in case something goes wrong. Can't decide whether to make first appointment at the doctors yet or to wait another week?

The shop only had digis left, so pretty clear when it comes up pregnant. In shock!

I'm not a fan of the new screen either... not a fan of change! Was hoping it'd be something a little more subtle for reading at work but no, it still screams 'I am nothing to do with work!!!'

Congratulations Candycane! :j

Got a little +ve on my OPK so I'll see if I can seduce OH tonight

Massive congratulations borokat!!

I think I need to start temping, or something. Atm I'm basically guessing when I ov. and I'm clearly not getting it right. I'm trying to tell based on cm but there doesn't seem to be any at all - that can't be a good sign??

As a beginner, what do people recommend to start with? Would I be better going for ov. tests or temping?

ETA: have just read that I'd need to not drink for a few hours so it looks like that's out. I can't go more than about 10 mins without a drink, I'm always really thirsty.

you can still drink, its just try not to drink too much for a couple of hours before the test.

i get a headache if i dont drink regularly, and I always end up having small sips or a small drink, and the tests still work.

I would temp as well though, cos the opks show when you are about to ovulate, but only temping confirms you definitely did.


I HATE THIS SQUASHED SCREEN BTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :mad:

Ickle - that's good news about dh, hope meeting goes ok. Thinking of you all.

Birdie - yay for positive opk

Yay Ive found out how to fix and debrighten the screen from another post on here

Yet if you really can't stomach it you can revert it - the option can be found under your User CP option > Edit Options > Scroll down to the "Miscellaneous Options" area and look for the option labelled "Forum Skin" > Change it to "New masthead, stretchy".



I also selected the less bright one.

Okay, so i am probably being silly here (again....!!!!)

I stopped taking the pill about the 28th-ish of December... and i still havent had AF as yet (which is weird as if i miss one, i usually get AF immediately lol) i wondered when or if people reckon i should do pregnancy test at some point in the near-ish future/next few weeks etc?? I have MEGA achey boobs and had a weird dragging sensation a week or so ago.. i KNOW these could be AF "issues" so certainly not hopeful at all BUT - just wondered how or when i should test just to see........? What do u lot do lol? I mean, even if i had conceived the first BD, i would still only be about 4 weeks at most by this weekend....... Am i being a gun jumper??? :o
