    $24.95 for 1 year, not bad, but one doesn't really need it to ascertain ov, it's only for SS and countdown to testing:o

    Oh so further up than the white band then! I was looking in completely the wrong place ... Dumb cow.

    Ok I feel like a right plonker now. You can all go to bed lol.

    Hey Rebekah, I did the same thing as well a couple of cycles ago with those, and could def see the same pink line you were describing... thought it was a tlp too.. rubbish. They should make it totally clear in the instructions :( Hope you're ok!
    Back to lurking...

    Would be handy to know how long the offer is on for, I find it handy to look over my cycles see how long different things were, and to temp obviously. I think I have 58 days left though.

    Sorry for AF Rebekkah, hope you're not too blue. I was looking at your chart this morning, last month you had a 13 day luteal and AF on day 14, this month is exactly the same. That's a very healthy length and at least that part of your cycle is dependable, so in your case you're possibly better to say AF is 14 days from OV, rather than a fixed cycle length as you seemed to OV on CD13 last month and CD15 this month.

    DH has a preliminary interview today, just a chat really and they haven't advertised a job so no idea what kind of level they're looking at, but they headhunted him so I'm trying not to get too hopeful they might make him an offer. Worked out last night if we cleared our debt we'd need to bring in about £2100-£2200 a month after tax to pay all our outgoings and have a decent standard of life. This is excluding childcare. So if DH could get a new job I could work less hours and be at home with our baby more. The imaginary baby that is as I'm CD7, but I'm just trying to plan our finances as best I can. At the moment we could afford me to work 2.5/3 days a week if we cleared the debt, if he moved up a bit we might be able to get that down to 2 days which would be great.

    If it's any consolation, after I split with my ex in 2006, I realised about two months later I hadn't had AF and did a HPT. I misread the result as you did and spent best part of a week panicking. I did another and it was negative. And another. And another. All negative. I'd also mis-read the test. Turns out I was skipping AF due to stress. Your body can play some cruel tricks on you :o

    Afternoon all,

    Hugs for Rebekah for CD1 and for lemonmelon too.

    Moon and I DTD last night, so back on track with SMEP. He's just phoned me to say that he's going to be off on Saturday as well this week as he has to work on his normal day off (Friday) next week, so he's off Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday this week. It's great timing as OV will probably happen tomorrow, so we'll need to DTD Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, then Sunday if following the SMEP.

    I've had a really lazy morning - watching TV in bed and also had a mini snooze again in the middle of one programme - I'm off to wash my hair now, have lunch and then make a courgette cake as we were given one by MIL's friend and I have 2 eggs left to use up too.

    Have fun with period parties and baby dancing.

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
