Why are people choosing 1st response over internet cheapies?

They are BOGOF in Boots - plus I couldn't order any ICs this month, will do if AF arrives.

I still feel like I'm in the game but I know I'm not. I've got increased CM, still feeling dizzy and light-headed plus my boobs have never been this sore. I know AF will come and kick my butt at the weekend though, she always does without any sign of doing so before.

Because as a general rule FRER are the most reliable, no squinting, virtually no evaps etc.

For me it's a pyschological thing! When I have a stack of IC's I can't stop myself from testing all the time. I have driven myself crazy the last 5 months. If I've got something expensive I use it sparingly and so far this month it appears to be working as I have never been so calm about waiting to test!

I tell you what, those Sainsburys false positives have made me so mad about testing this week!

I got DH to hide the tests from me too as I can't be trusted. I am allowed to take 1 tomorrow. If it's negative I will take another one on Sunday which is when AF is due (according to FF, Ovia says Saturday). If it's still negative I will just let it go unless I'm a few days late. I want to make sure I have a day to get over a negative result before we go to london for our anniversary treat.

Hey guys. I took another frer this morning and got another faint positive. My friend in work who's a mum of two told me she only got a faint positive with her first son and from my photograph is convinced it's positive and doesn't understand why I'd be doubting it! Gonna keep testing over the next few days!!

Congratulations LisaJane!! As Rebekah says, you sound up duffed to me!

We're going to take a break from TTC for a while... We've only been trying for 6 months but the pressure is really getting to OH and I think it needs to be done to help our marriage. Going to struggle but needs to be done so I'm bowing out of the thread for a while - good luck the rest of you lovely ladies and in a nice way I hope none of you are still here when I return sometime in the new year!

It's going to be so hard not to lurk but I need to avoid for my own sanity!
