    Fingers crossed for you!

    I came off the pill, didn't have a period for 3 months, then discovered I was 8 weeks pregnant when I took a test after feeling sick for a few weeks.

    I believe that some chemists offer free testing too, if you have one of those near you on lunch breaks...

    I had 2 negs at home before I had a test at the dr's which came back positive. I was about 2 weeks overdue when it came back positive and about a week over when it was negative. Hope you get the answer you're looking for!!

    Thanks guys. I've decided to do another test first thing in the morning as I am now on day 35.

    We are quite excited that I might be, and have half convinced ourselves that I am, but after looking on the net, it seems that Day 35 isn't actually that late depending on my cycle. Darn it, wish I knew how long mine is.

    Good luck for tomorrow.
