kraizy i used the digital and the internet cheapies for ages and there is one brand that detects (for me) anyways the same as the digitals the other was very unreliable,but anyways im in europe so im not sure if they are from the uk but i got them off ebay from a medical supplier,which is important,they are early lh test strips calledEG-ENS they have been the best for me because they detected the same as the digitals but way cheaper and you get like 50 of them!I also got from a medical supplier the ultra early 10ml pregnancy tests 25 of them for like 3 pounds! and they detected pregnancy the same as FRER i did one of each a day to make sure
Your plan is shaping up good

KD_I used clearblue easy digitals and internet cheapies, (wondfo). Sounds like you have a great plan!

I got the Preseed and it looks like it is in individual applicators. Do you have to use it all? can you somehow squeeze it into another container to keep what you don't use?

Well I am torn about temping. I have been doing it for so long that I am not sure I can stop. I am even thinking of starting back in the morning. What to do, what to do...

Lol kraizy, you also have temped for so long and it hasnt been working,,right?Why dont you temp after you think you oed and got +opks,because you really need to relax and let go for your own good hunJust get a plan than stop thinking of ttc until after you o at least.
If you think you want to then do it, i just really think it is backfiring on you.
And the preseed just do a little less than they say on the directions,i dont think you can reuse it,i wouldnt.but mine cam in a tube with separate applicators,is that the same?

I agree with Sweet sister. You've done all this temping for 2 years I would drop it immediately. Not only is it less stressful but you've temped for all this time and got bfn, how helpful is it? I'm also a big believer of trying something different to get different results - I'm not saying you're going to get pg because you're not temping but it will only help relax you and alleviate that stress associated with constant temping. The opks I used were frer ones and also clear blue digital ones. I would use the frer early on and when I got a fade in or thought I was ovulating soon I would use a digital so I could be absolutely sure, it took the stress out of it for me to just see a smiley rather than trying to read how dark the lines were. I'm so happy that you're still on the ttc journey Kraizy!

As for me, I have these ongoing cramps like I'm getting my period, and am scared every time I go to the toilet that I'm going to see blood. Do you think it's normal to feel cramping in early pregnancy? It's got me worried!

[Butterfly Spirit]

Lala cramping is scary as hell, but extremely normal because our uteruses have to STREEEETCH!

However do pay attention to the frequency and intensity though, and if you get worried, call your doc... or doc on call!

[PeonyPrincess]

KD, GL! I was like you and it was such a habit to temp every morning. I don't miss it now! How about not doing it this month and seeing how you feel? You can always start it again another month, but we hope you won't have to worry about it as you will get a BFP!

Lala, heaps of ladies say that exact same thing...they think AF is coming and keep checking. Rest assured it is likely just your body starting to adjust to the idea of building a home for your baby.
