    Well thanks to all for the recommendations of access diagnostics. They managed to send out pre seed, ovulationa nd pregnancy tests to arrive 1 day after ordering them.

    Not so good to the post office who decided not to bother ringing the bell 2 days ago so my lovely b/f could take the parcel and who just left a card instead that I could only go swap for my parcel today.

    I had wanted to check the ovulation tests really. I am now on CD16 and have not noticed any EWCM yet so hoping the tests could tell me what my cm didn't IYSWIM.

    I'm not exactly sure of my cycle length as my last AF was the first proper one after coming off the pill.

    Anyway, baby dust to all on this lovely day

    Which type did you get? Didn't it come with instructions? (I just got a pack today myself, and they're the "dipstick" type, rather than poas, so I prob can't help you more than that... but I can totally empasize! Trying stuff like this out is prob the only consideration to getting a BFN or AF's arrival... well, that and maybe "practicing" new ways to BD :D)
    Steph, home from work with the *worst* headache-- at least since I'm not preg I can take Ibprofein?

    They are the dip stick ones...have 'borrowed' some plastic cups from the water cooler at work in preparation :D

    I'm at work - and have not opened the box yet to read the instructions as i know once it's open i'll just have to try one out! And as so many of the lovely ladies on here use them i thought i would ask!

    Hope your headache goes soon!

    Excellent idea...she says while staring at 4 cups that have accumulated on her desk during the day...me thinks they will be coming home with me!! :D

    And what is with the urge to POAS all the time?! :o Even when I know i'm all most certainly going to get a BFN and that its too early, I really have to drag myself away from the bathroom :D Atleast as they are only savers ones I dont feel as guilty for wasting them! :T

    Ah Glad your tests were all clear sparklygirl:)

    Well AF finally over after a whole week!!! I normally only have AF to visit for 3 days (whilst on pill anyway) So maybe my body is slowly, slowly sorting itself out only a 6 weeks cycle last time and longer AF???? Maybe this cycle will be only 5 weeks....who knows!!

    I'm lucky in a way as I don't have to buy my tests as I can get them for free at work (Shhh, we're not really meant to) but I do limit myself to 1-2 per month.

    Feeling a bit lonely lately though as my friend who is pregnant is spending all her time with her other friend who is also pregnant, I do think she is a bit fickle though as only a few months back she was contacting me all the time as we were doing Sliming World together...Ahh well, onwards and upwards.

    ...........I know how you feel Mel. I have noticed that one of my so called friends is acting in a smiliar way since she got preggers. I'm the only one left out of 5 of us that hasn't had any children yet. We have known each other since junior school, and now I'm not in the 'I have a baby gang' they seem to disown me in a way......During lunch with them recently one of them turned around (after talking non-stop about their kids) to ask, 'And how are YOU' in a patronising way!
    Well little do they know that I'm TTC too, and if and when I become pregnant it will be a middle finger salute to them!! LOL..........and yes, I am trying to rid them as friends now, I can't be doing with people like that, along with other nasty jibes I get......Sorry to blab on!
    Anyway, hope you girls have fun with your fellas over the weekend, and I will stop moaning and leave you in peace, lol!

    Not much to report here except we got an appointment today to see the fertility doctor next month. At long last we might get somewhere! Trying not to get too excited though until we know for sure if we can be helped or not.


    Sparklygirl. Glad your results came back ok.

    Good luck and best wishes everyone

    It is hard to sit there and listen to them all talking about babies etc when you want it so badly. My heart used to ache so bad for a baby and everyone I knew was pregnant (mum, sis, sil, aunty plus friends) and it tore me to bits. Everytime I found out someone was preg, happy i was for them but i would loose a whole nights sleep and would just cry.
