Trying for a Baby Part 7

codemonkey

Congratulations Aida. May give the lunaception thing a go.

CD16 and still waiting for OV. Think my body is gearing up for it but encountered another problem. BDing. I laugh and feel very inadequate at those of you doing it every 2 days. I'm lucky if I can get Mr codemonkey to do it every 2 weeks and there is no point forcing the issue because pressure means it never finishes. I am lucky because he does make sure I'm happy but that's not going to result in a baby. And now my mum is ill and I feel like I need to get a move on.

Sigh. I may be here for quite some time.

Afm - just seen a nurse at the doctors surgery and she thinks the blisters on my face may be eczema or an allergic reaction she advised putting e45 on my face abd Vaseline round my eyes at night and to take anti-histamines each day and then hopefully it should clear up, failing which I am to go back and see her. Hope its gone before ov as DH wouldn't kiss me goodbye this morning in case it's catching!

Awww... (((hugs))). You need some steroid type things, but I suppose it's not good for pg?

Oh my days, ladies, I need an expert on evap lines urgently!

I just went to tidy up the kitchen and grabbed my tests from Saturday and today and broke them open to recycle the plastic bits (I bin the wee bits obviously) and what I thought before were shadows caused by the plastic casing, because I was trying not to get my hopes up, appear to be very faint lines! :eek:

I even asked my toddler how many lines she could see, her eyesight being far superior to mine, and she said two!

BUT I then rushed upstairs and did a Tesco digi with my FMU that was still in the pot and got negative.

However, last time I was PG the Tesco digis gave me negative and for some reason I forgot this and bought more instead of the CB. (If you remember, last time I got a neg and then had to wait all day to get another test which then came up positive.)

So, I have pictures but I can;t make it show it as well as I can see it IYSWIM.

I don;t want to get my hopes up too much, but I do feel pregnant, and I have never had an evap line, the only lines I've ever had have been cos I was pg.

Anyway, trying not to get too excited, but the lines are very faint and they are definitely pink, not grey and they are in the right place on the test strip.

Here's the pix, probably will just look totally blank though! PLease be brutally honest with me. I don;t want false hope.

What should I do? I have some more cheap ones from Tesco, same as those, should I try and do another? I don;t want to spend a fortune on a CB if I'm wrong, but I want to know! And OH only believes digis *rolleyes*

They don;t look like evaps then?

Oh my days! Why is it all such a drama? I have thrown my FMU now after the digi said no, and I last weed an hour ago so I can;t just go and do one (and of course I need a wee and will not be able to hold it for another two hours, no way).

Help!

OH will just say 'wait another day or two and test again' because he is a man and has NO IDEA what this is like for us ladies. Therefore you are the first people I am speaking to! :rotfl:

Skintchick - I can see two lines on both of them... Can you get a clear blue digi?

Bigzippy - thanks for sharing the conversation you had with your MIL. She sounds like an amazing lady, and I am sure you will hold on to her lovely words. ((hugs)) to you and Mr BZ x

If it was me I'd buy a CB digi. I know they are expensive but it will put you out of your misery!! Another thought if you want to be :money: Do you buy stuff on Amazon? Buy a cheap twin pack of CB digis on Amazon (they are about £6.99 for two I think). Then sign up for a free trial of 'Amazon Prime' so you can get free next day delivery. You could save your FMU tomorrow and wait for them to arrive in the post, and then cancel the Prime trial.

That said, it's probably worth the extra £3 to just go and buy one from a shop... :rotfl:

Could you maybe try a different brand. Superdrug, first response etc. I tried boots own and it said neg and apparently they have quite crap sensitivity. FRER was very pale but could see two lines. So see if you can try a diff brand and if you can again see 2 lines buy a digi!!

skintchick

I'm trying to calm down. I am going out with DD later on a playdate, so I think I will get a CB digi on the way, then wait till I've not weed for four hours. My FMU was only 4 hours anyway as I had to wee in the night. That will either be later today if I can maange to hold it or tomorrow morning.

My worry is that they might have appeared after the time limit which makes them evap lines.

I knew I should have opened them up but I didn;t want to be desperate! lol. Maybe I should just do the strip one today and then open it up and see.

Oh, TTC makes me a crazy lady!
