Morning ladies. Embarrassed to say I just got out of bed and had a shower, at 10:40am. Oh dear. I've been getting up progressively later each morning this week. Still no AF, and just the same small tinges every now and then. My ankles were swollen as soon as I got out of bed this morning (horrid things), and we have a full length mirror in the bathroom which you need to walk past to get to the shower, and I couldn't help but notice, I'm sure my nipples look darker, lol. Though perhaps I'm just thinking myself into again..however, I've never been able to think AF into not coming. (I tried many times as a teenager in the summer when I wanted to swim!)

I"ll be testing tomorrow morning, as long as AF stays away. That was the compromise I made with DH - he gets 'thingy' about the cost of HPTs, which is fair enough, they are pricey. I'll buy one tonight so I can use FMU tomorrow.

HJ - I still have that good feeling for you this month. I'm glad to hear that AF hasn't shown up, despite the feelings in your tummy. Think positive.

Beaksie - At first I was a bit disappointed for you when I saw that AF had finally come for you, but I'm glad to see that you're thinking of it in a positive light, and I can see what you mean about everything getting settled again, and now you know where you are with it. Your positivity is an inspiration.

Sasha - Once again, excellent idea about getting DH to hide the thermometer. It's like any addiction, it'll drive you mad for the first few days, but then not using it will be liberating Now get the BD happening!

Treelo - excellent news about your election. It'll be so good for you to have something else to think about and concentrate on. I agree with the other girls about it probably being too early for a positive test. Even though it does happen, usually people AF needs to be late before they get a BFP, so hold out for as long as you can! Sunday sounds like a good plan
