    Hi, I agree with the other girls and would try to hold out until 12DPO. But, that's coming from me who is usually a POAS addict. This is the first cycle I managed to hold out until 12DPO, as usually I start around 8DPO, lol. I've found first response tests to be really good. While the other two brands I used gave me faint (but very noticeable) lines, the first response left absolutely no doubt

    Good luck!!!

    Thanks. Last night I had pretty much resigned myself to the fact that this month wasn't to be, considering Satya's comment, but I had another high temp today. Should I test tomorrow???

    I recommend Discover One Step tests. I got my first BFP at 10 dpo and then another +ve at 12 DPO. They give very clear strong lines.

    If your temp is the same or higher tomorrow I would definitely test

    Good luck, I hope that this is it for you!

    For sure. If you get another high temp tomorrow test away. If it's still high you are very likely to get a positive HPT. Good luck tomorrow.

    Sorry to have put a negative spin on it yesterday, but I know only too well how easy it is to get excited too early. It took me 14 years to hae my son and countless amounts of two week waits - many where I thought things looked promising only for the temp to drop the next day. Just trying to balance things out a little for you.

    Good idea Satya. Nothing worse than people telling you what you want to hear then getting a BFN (not that I've been in your shoes and had too many of them thankfully).

    But, the countdown is on Bub4Me. Look forward to seeing your result tomorrow.....

    Satya- I understand. I wasn't particularly upset last night, just disappointed since I have been feeling (touch wood) like this was the closest we've been. Deciding it wasn't to be this month is a silly subconcsious reaction so that I don't get my hopes up too. Sometimes I don't have much confidence in myself when it comes to the charting, so thought you had a more experienced, realistic (since we've been TTC for so long) preception. Since we've had so much trouble, I was sure yours was the obvious answer.

    We have been TTC#1 4 years and it hasn't (as I'm sure you can understand) been easy for me, particularly watching everyone else around me look at each other and get pregnant. I appreciate your concern for balance, and thank you for posting again today.

    Well, I bought a clearblue digital test on my way home this afternoon, so will see how the temp is in the morning. Ooh, I wish I could test now. Going out tonight with DH, my brother and his girlfriend, so will hopefully get my mind off temps for a while. I must say, I was VERY happy to get another high temp today...
