My DH was lying in bed this morning but knew I was testing so I took the Superdrug test through to him and said it looks like I am pregnant will I do a digi? He said yes, do you realise you will have spent about £20 this morning. I said if the test is right it will cost us a lot more than that over the coming years :rotfl:

Thats hilarious! Congratulations!!

Congrats def blonde!! That is a BFP if ever I saw one! Usually we have to squint to see it, lol...congrats on holding off testing til cd34!

Im at 19dpo now (i think), CD33 and still no AF or BFP. I took a digital on thur night (17dpo) and the sad words 'not pregnant' appeared.

Whats going on? My cycle is always 26-29 days since Nov, except for this rogue 31 day cycle.

Thing is (tmi) when i do a check just a bit internally theres slight brownish on tissue paper but nothing when I wipe normally. 3rd day of this now...

So can you get remnants of implantation bleed at 17-19dpo? shouldnt it be gone by then?

Also no AF signs whatsoever - my body is broken

How do you work out your ovulation?

Perhaps you just ovulated later than you thought or like youve just posted - you didnt at all? Were you sure at the time that you had ov?

Hiya gals!
Huge congrats DB. Wonderful news!!!
Lemon, you too. Huge congratulations!!!!
My cbfm was still low this morning but I can see a second faint line on the stick and I've got ewcm. I love being confused!!!!
Ho hum, will just go jump on dh anyway! It's a tough life!
Personally, I didn't buy anything for ds until after the 12 week scan and didn't buy any big stuff until after 20 week scan. Each to their own I guess.

Can I guess 6 this month please? Ta.

I really must post more often. Many congratulations DB and Lemonmelon. Hope you have a happy and healthy nine months. Atton, I love the dress. Welcome mrsbunntobe, hope your stay here is a short one.
Feel a bit silly as I need to book a holiday for next June, but all I can think is if I happen to fall pregnant this month it would be dreadful timing! Should I just tempt fate?

I have a second line on every test I do ...it will only be a peak when the 2nd line is as dark as the 1st line (or for some people the 1st line disappears). CBFM works a bit like OPK's. We always have LH in our system....its the surge the stick is trying to detect.

I think it's quite hard for those who have never had issues with TTC to comprehend that pregnancy might not happen/go wrong. It's like they know it happens...but don't for a second think it will happen to them. Of course I knew that infants died...did I ever think my little girl would be one of them? Did I hell. Until you have been in that situation you really don't know how you will feel or react and it's a little naive to say you will "deal with it" if it happens to you. Miscarriage...or worse stillbirth & neonatal deaths are crippling to say the very least. They change you as a person and give you a very very different perspective of life.

I didn't buy anything the entire way through my pregnancy with DS because I was scared. I actually got rid of a lot of stuff that I had bought for DD and of course it was all brand new. She never left the hospital. There I was, with my big pregnant belly, trying to sell a new pushchair & car seat etc etc etc to other pregnant women. I think they thought it had all fallen off the back of a lorry

Anyway, rant over.

Just got back from the wedding and it was, erm, lovely. The poor grooms mother collapsed at the wedding breakfast because the room was so hot but other than that it was a nice day.

And to the important stuff. :T:T:T:T CONGRATULATIONS DB! :T:T:T:T:T Brilliant news and a real BFP!

Clarets - I would say book the holiday

Ohh, also, 5 BFP's for me this month please.

I didnt work out my ov this month or last with temping/opks like I normally do, pity as I could have done with the confirmation but im pretty sure now its an anovulatary cycle, as my flow is still really light and pinkish brown so its more of a breakthrough bleed than a period. Would be nice if real AF was like this - no PMS, no sore boobs!

At least my cycles not been lengthened too much - first time its happened to me, so much you learn about your body in the TTC journey!

tmi - I have very light flow on my pad but not sure whether to call CD1 yet as theres virtually nothing when I wipe..

I gave my cockatiel away a while ago to a friend and just heard that he now has a wife but they've not been able to have babies as of yet unlike the other cockatiel couples - he must have inherited his TTC difficulties from me! :rotfl::A

Those who are lucky enough to have never had such loss or complications shouldnt live their lives in fear of it happening though, should they ? The majority of people will never know (thankfully) and I think the poster in questions attitude of dealing with it when/if it happens is a healthy one.

I've been reading this thread since leaving and was really saddened by the mick taking of someone who was only enjoying the trying for a baby process in their own way, i thought this was a much more non judgemental supportive thread than that
