  • Slothsocks !!!8211; that is fantastic news! Have you done any more tests or are you waiting the week to do more? Let me know when you are ready to be a graduate! :)

    Congratulations to Rambosmum and T4Taylor! We will miss you on here but hopefully more of us will be joining you as graduates soon! Make sure you pop back and tell us how you told your other half and their reaction

    Those of us on the CB study, how has communication been? I emailed to say I!!!8217;d had my period but had no response to say the pack had been sent. Funnily enough the same day they replied to my email chasing a response the pack arrived and they apologised saying their email should have been sent a few days prior.

    I sent back my initial sample promptly, but again I have heard nothing!!!8230; is this normal? Or did you all hear something promptly when they received the initial sample back?

    My fertile window is starting tomorrow so it is just over 2 weeks before I would start testing I presume, so I can see why they won!!!8217;t have been in contact again but I just wanted to check!

    I am so pleased that the Easter holidays are here now! Let!!!8217;s hope the sunshine stays and the rain/snow that is rumoured doesn!!!8217;t make an appearance haha. We are off on a family holiday on Monday for a week so I won!!!8217;t be able to update the lists in that time. Would anyone like to take the helm?

    Hi all
    Congratulations Rambosmum and T4Taylor! As PKK days make sure you come back and tell us your spilling-the-beans-to-your-OH stories! How are you both doing?

    Nothing much to report. CD14 here, ovia says FW ended yesterday and we only managed to BD yesterday and on the first day of FW so not holding out much hope. OH has been unwell, but he's back on track now so hopefully we skills have more chances next month.

    Happy Easter and BD to all!

    *PKK* I didn't have to wait to get my pack sent out, as it was the right time but I got no response from my sample being sent. They then emailed to say they were sending more tests, so I assume they got it?

    Thank you for all your good wishes. Today I did another test and digital still said pregnant and internet cheapy line had got stronger. Therefore I!!!8217;m going to tentatively dip my toe in the next board. I found out Thursday lunchtime and told hubby when he same home from work Thursday eve. I said !!!8220;you don!!!8217;t need to take your zinc and more, your work here is done!!!!8221; Then showed him the clearblue digital. We stared at each other for a couple of seconds and then he punched the air with both arms at the thought of paternity leave at Christmas! Working in retail he has not had more than Christmas Day off for 14 years. He was also very happy his sperm worked. He then went to get me some slippers and stopped me from bending down to pick something up!
    Today I decided to tell my parents as I wanted them to be there whatever happens. I bought them an Easter card and wrote !!!8220;congratulations on your promotion to grandparents!!!8221;. They were both very surprised and teared up. My 2 best mates also know but think we!!!8217;re going to leave it at that for at least another month. Thank you for all your support and kind words here x
  • Did a FRER this morning, wish I hadnt, I did a cheap and it was neg but Ive has the FR ones left from last month, I am about 7-8 dpo I could of sworn I saw the faintest line, I held it in all lights and I honestly thought there was something there but only in certain lights, so I pulled the test apart because there was a scratch on the plastic screen so I wanted to make sure this was not causing a shadow etc and it looks clear negative now I have ripped it all apart, I am just hoping it is just too early, this is the first month I have properly relaxed when ttcing so I thought this month might actually be our month, this is so draining :(

    Hope all is well ladies xx

    Happy Easter! If you can't have chocolate for breakfast on Easter Sunday, when can you?! haha

    We are busy packing to head off on our family holiday tomorrow. We are super excited to spend a week with lots of different family members. It's the first time we have done it, and I am hoping it will become a yearly thing, and that next year we have our own little bunny to take!

    I'll be checking in on my mobile to see how everyone is getting on but I won't be able to post so I will catch up on the lists when I am back next week :)

    Unfortunately I did a clear blue this morning and it was negative. Did an internet cheapy and that too is very faint, so it looks like it's all over.
