  • Lol! Am the same bought a bulk of cheapie hpts that work just as well as the expensive ones.

    Stupidly only bought one digi with my chemical thinking I wouldn't need another after I'd got my bfp. Would only use a digi after a positive cheapie as well.
    Baby on board - EDD 29th Sept
  • Congratulations Chelsea Blue, hope its a happy and healthy 9 months for you

    Hugs to those who need them

    Thanks to Mrs TM for the lists

  • Ok. So i give in. Too long trying the "don't wanna buy into all this ovulation testing nonsense" has made me desperate to try them!! So, Just going to buy some ovulation strippy thingys - Buying the "30 mIU/mL (Normal) Sensitivity" ones as that seems to be the way forward at first....? So... how the hell does one use these? When does one know when to actually use them!? Help me someone!
    Baldrick, does it have to be this way? Our valued friendship ending with me cutting you up into strips and telling the prince that you walked over a very sharp cattle grid in an extremely heavy hat?
  • Do you kind of know when you ovulate BigMomma?? If you do then start using them a few days before.... When I wasn't sure - I started using them CD9 and just kept going. Be warned you may need to keep going for a while (I have been ovulating CD21ish) - first couple of cycles I think I gave up too soon thinking they weren't working.

    So - Im 12 DPO today...wasn't expecting to get this far. So fingers crossed Im heading for a proper luteal phase :) Was awake in the middle of the night last night - driving myself mad with thoughts that if I conceive next month, baby would be due x month etc etc. Can still fit a baby in before 40! But no more baby when Im 38 for me.

    Hi all, I'm back again. I've been umming and ahh-ing about rejoining this thread after my BFP in May but sadly MCing in June... Been lurking on the thread forever and have just decided to bite the bullet and rejoin. As this thread has been lucky for me and I've never been on it for very long.

    I'm on CD25, waiting to test on Friday... this is my second cycle since MC so hoping I will be lucky like Samtoby and catch soon.

    Can I be added to the list please? TTC#2 since April, CD25, 10 DPO, I ovulated late this cycle according to my opks and I had a short 26 day cycle last month so I'm not really sure when I sohlud test but thought Friday I will be 13dpo, so I suppose I can try then. I have also just bought a BBT and try temping as well...

    Congrats to ChelseaBlue on your BFP xx

    Good luck to all

    Welcome back Gopppers and hoping your stay will be short.

    I am a complete and utter hormonal wreck today and have cried 3 times (over nothing!) already!
    .
  • Hugs becsxx know how you feel, been screaming like a banshee then blubbing for no reason.
    Tested this morning and BFN for me too, will give it a few days and if the witch doesn't show i will test again. I officially hate doing these tests now...so disheartening :( did get my hopes up i have to admit..so waiting again :(

    I'm exactly the same without-a-paddle, want to test again but don't want to be disappointed. Hugs x
