    I usually hold my wee for 3-4 hours while not drinking too much in that time, should be concentrated enough by then. Often, my FMU is only 4 hours old anyway if I get up with DD in the night. There's nothing special about the morning wee, its just usually the most concentrated (I used to think there was something important about it being overnight wee, lol).

    Also if you're testing the day your period is due, most tests say that any time of the day should be OK. I think it's more important to use concentrated wee if you're testing early, but if it's 14DPO or over, most tests should be sensitive enough to use with any wee.

    Thanks littlemoog, I think scottish chick said she was cd12 yesterday so needs moving down from the top of the list?

    Definitely blonde, sorry to hear about your grandma :(

    There was something else, but I've forgotten again :o

    Btw, does anyone else use a smart phone to catch up on this thread and is now finding that clicking the Thanks button makes the whole page reload (since the masthead change I think?)?

    Cheers, I've updated her, TeamLowe and Penguin83. It's hard work doing the list, I have a new admiration for QQ!

    Thanks Littlemoog, also pls change that I've high on CBFM, i def haven't ovulated yet!

    and i *think* i'm on CD1
    can someone remind me of the cough syrup thing? do i *have* to take it 3x a day? if i do i'll go through a bottle before i get anywhere close to Ov! think sexymouse said she did it once a day until around ov time then 3 times a day?

    Also, CBFMs- do they retain their value? they say they're not for pcos but are also for people with a regular cycle within the 'normal' 28-42 day range, which is me. was thinking i could get on then if it was rubbish sell it on? i'd use OPKs but that would involve doing it at work and i don't want to do that :/
    can't afford one this month (cycle does not match up with paydays, zut!) but will definitely try to invest for start of next cycle. assuming it starts at all ;)
    Oh, and speaking of them, the pictures on amazon make me smile cos the second one is 'woman with CBFM behind her back approaching man' and the third is 'man taking different woman up the stairs'. if swapping partners is how you make a baby then that explains our lack of luck lol

    oh and realised that thinking back i've been waking up in a cold sweat most mornings. so of course, i've googled it, and it's caused by a trauma of some sort in the night, usually panic attacks, bad dreams etc but it also says diabetics get them because blood sugar drops in the middle of the night. so that's not guna add to my hypochondria at all :/ x x

    3 dpo for me today. Find this whole 2WW thing so hard. Does anyone else use any other websites/chat places? I discovered a whole world on baby and bump last night that was a bit dangerous. 2 hours after reading their CBFM thread from nearly start to finish and there was only 1 BFP!!! They do have cool smilies for BFP and BFN though!

    I found baby and bump when i was first pregnant and it was helpful then, and the miscarriage support there was nice too.
    but i do find their other TTC forums a little umm...crazy :o if QQ was over there she'd be finger wagging constantly!
    it just seems like the more i hung out there the more pressure i felt under for TTC to be my whole life, as that's how i felt it was for the others there and if you weren't taking 28 natural remedies and POAS every hour then you weren't trying hard enough. and it seemed quite a bitter place too, that only certain people (ie themselves) 'deserved' a baby and i didn't want that kind of darkness in my life when i was already in quite a dark place (after the mc).

    That's the main reason i love this thread so much, so much more relaxed and keeps TTC in its rightful place, as an important goal of my life but not my whole life x x
