tea I'm on the 25th, you?

Well....our appt is 25th too but we realised later that OH goes away that day (been planned for ages, I just didn't connect the dates). I really don't want to test before work, but he's away all that weekend so not sure what to do really.

Oh that is a dilemma. You'll probably want some support from OH.

I will have to test and go to work if I do it that day. Tempted to wait until the Saturday.

Yeah I was all set for the sat, totally forgot OH's away. Had already decided not to test at the hospital this time but they like to make the appt. Thought it was easier to go along with it while we were there then cancel later.

So don't want to test then go straight to work but I can't wait another whole week.

I'm 23rd but will blatantly have tested way before then

That's interesting, our clinic don't offer an appointment, just have to call with result but we're an hour away anyway so it would be a long way to drive to POAS (esp if it's a BFN). Do they do a blood test at your clinic?

That is a dilemma, could you book the day off and test with OH before he goes?

isla_red

ww our clinic just gave us a letter to complete so we don't have an appointment either.

How long will he be away tea?

Sorry for no personals on phons.still cant get hold of fs.no progress ect

tea_lover

It's just a standard poas. We did go last time but it seemed a waste to take time off work, pay extortionate parking and travel for an hour when I can just pee at home.

He's away Friday to Monday so if I test that weekend I do it on my own. But kind of think I would prefer that to testing then going to work. Am stumped! But hey, it's ages away so will worry about it next week.

isla_red

Yeah it's work that complicates it all. Especially when you want head space.

tea_lover

Work is a massive pita... so looking forward to going in tomorrow, not.
