LOL, thanks; but why do you think I'm on BB so much right now!
Should wake DS up soon. I know he went to sleep shortly before midnight after a very full day, but it is nearly 10am. And I went to the loo last 2 hours ago, do need to go again, trying to hold on for another hour so I can use the hpt...
Really want to find out before I have to tell DH. He has seen my excel spreadsheet of cycle lengths, including length of cycles, averages, min and max lengths... and therefore knows how late I am, but will wait to do the second test until he asks me to. Then we can find out together what I've known for ages. It will probably be another 2 weeks for DH to cave. Or he may wait until he sees me expand.
OR I may not be pregnant. That is the more likely explanation when I think about the statistics. (But I do want to pick out a name for Stormy!)
eta - did the test. not pregnant. that's good, but disappointing too.

Just an update. Still no period. Tiny bit of brown spotting (ie I hunted for it) on Weds and Fri. Fell asleep on sofa yesterday afternoon for a good half-hour (could be due to late night on Thurs though). Went to bed at normal time, got up for the loo at 4am, slept in until 9 (note - did not have excess urination when pg with Liebs, so this is completely new to me). Both yesterday and today my tummy felt a bit iffy before I put something in it, not a usual occurance (nor was it usual when pg before).
I really hate waiting for my period.
Does anyone know why you're supposed to do an HPT every 3 days until your period arrives? Is it to keep the HPT makers in business? Cos even if I did test again on Monday (unlikely as DH will be home), is it really going to make a difference? This is almost a 6-week cycle now, and I haven't had one of those since before Liebling was conceived.
If you dont end up ovulating, technically your next bleed will not be menstruation. It will be a breakthrough bleed. It will come when your body cannot sustain the endometrium. Alternatively, you will eventually ovulate and have a normal luteal phast and then get your period. Either way, the cycle starts again.
