Cheapie test (update on page 5!)

Hi guys,

I wasn't going to test this morning because I'm sure AF is coming (cramps and 'period smell' when I go to the toilet) but when I saw this mornings temp (on the day AF due) I thought I may as well use my last cheapie test. I have tested on and off since 10DPO and each has been a BFN. This morning was the first time I have used FMU. Not sure what to make of it as it is just a cheapie test (3 tests for £1).

Any thoughts?

I won't get the champaign out just yet. AF cramps continue. x

Thoughts?

I think your pregnant hun! Cramps are normal.

Gosh really? They feel just like AF cramps though, seriously.

They are normal, your womb has to stretch to make room for the baby. As the womb stretches, so do the muscles surrounding it!

Congrats hun!

But what about my 'period smell' when I go to the toilet? I smell it every month before AF comes. It smells like 'iron'.

Also my boobs haven't grown. They just hurt (which is normal around AF time).

Thanks for talking btw x

Those tests are 25mui so not super sensitive. Did the line come up in the time limit??

Yes it came up at 5 minutes. Shall I buy a more expensive test today? Do you recommend any specific one chick? x

If you are getting a line on those then a stores own test should show up. (EG ASDA, TESCO)

I like the Asda ones. FRER are good, but pricey. You could always go for the CB Digital, i got my BFP on one the same day as a BFP on an Asda test.
