As some of you know oxsarahxo sadly lost her baby girl Jessica Charlotte Reay hours after giving birth. We are arranging a star to be named after Jessica and a lantern for her resting place from all of us. We also thought it would be nice to make a contribution to Sarah & Matt so they can use it towards flower arrangements, head stone or resting place arrangements. If you would like to contibute please PM me for details.

I'm Currently Feeling:  |  POAS Anonymous
I am an addict I confess. I even POAS (OPK) this morning just so i could get it out of my system! or get my fix as OH put it when he walked in to me peeing in a cup this morning!
So......I am starting this thread for everyone who promises not to POAS early this month. I am determined not to - anyone want to join! Membership is free!  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I am seriously bonkers when it comes to POAS - tested at 2DPO this cycle. However, after getting positive results on HPT's for 3 months running and negative bloods for 3 months running i am determined to stop doing them. Doc has said they are "subclinical misscarriages" - so i reckon i am better off not knowing. 
any hoo - i am not testing til af is late this month!!! when should you be teseting chick? |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Well should be 12th May, but last cycle was 41 days, so it's anyones guess. Starting charting this month to get a better idea of what's going on. Still waiting for OV signs at the mo, should have happened by now, but my body is never that straight forward.
I was a poas addict last time round and the month that I actually got my bfp was the month I didn't bother as I couldn't afford anymore! LOL!
What date will you be due to test? |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I promise not to test, i must admit i havent tested the last few months and found it a lot easier than getting my hopes up and then being crushed again
I was TTC a few years ago for 7 months and tested early all the time, my god i was a mess....so i really think its a good idea not to test until the day AF is due or after !!
Come on we can all do it....just make the most of peeing on OPKs!!  |
