    Oooh, more exciting TTC post!! My clear blue trial stuff just arrived - for the pregnancy test trial. I got a clear blue digi and a clear blue normal test (not digi). You have to use the digi and send it back to them, and fill out a questionnaire, and then they send you a £10 love2shop voucher.

    Only thing is, I'll have to use the digi at the end of this cycle whether I'm pregnant or not, and seeing 'not pregnant' will be so depressing!

    Oh well, can't complain, free £10 love2shop voucher should just about cover the 'treat myself' purchase I'll need to make on cd1 if I don't get pregnant!

    mrsj28, I've never used CB digi OPKs, but FMU is not usually recommended. Last thing before bed are best for me as I drink too much during the day:o

    I swear sometimes I could quite happily just find a sperm donor on the internet and then he can b*gger off and have his midlife crisis somewhere else.

    BD side of things are working out fine for us as I don't need him any more (frozen sperm from Dec):D

    Oh ladies, think we all need a hug (and/or a virile young man!) :) Maybe our OHs need to read this thread to realise how easy it is for them!
    Hear hear:cool:

    QQ – Sorry about the BFN. Sending you hugs. The thing that I really like about you QQ is that you are always positive. I find that quite inspiring. Any chance of bottling some of it up and sharing it.
    Thanks:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    I think it comes with age:p
    I’ve just seen that I’m on CD70 :eek:. I need to get back into things and starting taking my Metformin regularly. I also need to lose weight as I've put on about 7lbs.
    I'm trying to lose weight again too as I've put on a lot during this cycle with all the pills (I blame it on the pills:p).
    Still really want a baby though but the main thing I need to do is shift all this weight. Does anyone have a magic wand I could borrow :D
    Yay for the new house:j
    I'd like to borrow that magic wand too:D

    Huge hugs to you QQ, your time will come, i firmly believe it!

    Oh and thank you to whoever it was (sorry terrible memory) about the Clearblue survey, i am going to be sent one Digi test to use and send back and they have said they will include another test free. So some time this weekend I will poas on a digi for free :) Never used one before the price always put me off, but quite excited and will try and stick with not worrying if it is BFN!

    Hugs to all in need, back to work, just snuck on to check on QQ

    I was joking with a male friend of mine (one of the few who knows we're trying) that I was going to demand his sperm. He thought that he and his partner were going to have difficulty conceiving and had SA done, but as it turns out he had a really high sperm count. Same colouring as DH so he'd never notice the difference :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    If only I could...

    Fannyanna, if you find that magic wand, can I have a go? Cause I think I'll need one.

    Leopardlady the digi is so cool. I'm a total gadget geek, so I was fascinated by it, even though I've only ever used 1. It's a shame they're so pricey as they do give clear answers.

    ((hugs)) QQ, I'm sorry it didn't work this time. Good news though that your DH is keen to do another cycle right away.

    Can anybody advise me on using the clear blue digi ovulation tests? Mine just arrived! (I ordered some on eBay) :j

    Can you use them with FMU? I am so bad at storing up my wee for three hours and not drinking water... but I will if I have to!

    Thank you in advance :)

    I'm sure it says you can use at any time. I do it with FMU.

    Are you sure?:shocked:

    Not entirely - no fertile CM prior to when FF says I ovulated, but I can't really explain the temperature rise any other way. I even tried sleeping with the blind shut last night just in case the warm sun through the window was artificially raising my temperature, but temp was even higher this morning. But then it's still not as high as it usually is post-ovulation. So who knows!

    Just nipped back to see how you got on QQ......massive hugs. I'm really disappointed for you but gather from the last few comments you seem to be keeping up with the PMA. I really hope it happens for you next time.

    Congratulations tattoo :)

    I see someone has had a look at my chart. CD3 for me today. I got a faint positive line at 9dpo, but started bleeding the day after so obviously read the test wrong.

    Good luck to everyone for this month.
