    Faith177 Are you using the CB OPK's too? Is it the one with flashing and static smileys? Some people dislike OPK's but I think they are great for figuring out when you ovulate. If it is a similar day each cycle then I agree you don't need to use them every month then (especially as the CB ones are expensive! haha).

    Having a down moment.... looking on ASOS for a dress for our holiday next week and seeing lots of maternity dresses. I can't help but feel like I am never going to get to wear one of them!

    Yep I used another brand last month very basic and didn!!!8217;t get anywhere with them but now I think it!!!8217;s because I missed the window as I was going by the app

    I love the smiley face system it!!!8217;s so easy. I might only use them for a bit till I understand my cycle but after 10 years on the pill it!!!8217;s really helping. I ordered them from amazon was £23.20 for 20 tests

    Know what you mean we went to our friends a couple of weekends ago 5 kids und r 3.5 including two 6 month olds I felt so lost especially as one is due her second in September. Then one of the girls who sit behind me is expecting so all day I hear her and her team talking babies it can really upset me

    I know the feeling PKK, me and a friend are going to a wedding of an old school friend in September and she!!!8217;s pregnant and she keeps sending me maternity dresses and I can!!!8217;t help but feel jealous :(.

    On a brighter note I kept my job! Phew! At least I know I!!!8217;ll be safe now if anything happens anytime soon!
  • Great news BusyBargainz!

    PKK I totally agree, I!!!8217;d never noticed how many shops sell maternity clothes. At least we!!!8217;ll look good when we do get pregnant!

    I also have a pregnant lady sat opposite me at work so there!!!8217;s been baby talk every day for about 4 months now.

    Thanks all, definitely feel like a weight has been lifted knowing my job is safe.

    My cat is on the mend. Had to have a biopsy which we are awaiting results for but he seems a lot happier now so hopefully its all good news.

    Ready for a stress free weekend at peak fertility! Good luck all!

    Can I be updated to CD8 please, I am not sure where I will be really for this cycle but i will give tracking ov a go, trying not to be too disheartened as OH says at least we know we both work to get pregnant in the first place

    Hope everyone has a nice weekend xx
