Hi Everyone, I'm Claire. 35 and been TTC for about 18 months - started using OPK's just after Christmas. AF due 5 days ago so last night did a test (just a Tesco cheapy one). I've done quite a few tests over recent months, my periods aren't the most regular thing in the world so was expecting a negative. the only nagging thing that made me think i might be pg, is that my boobs have been painfully tender for what feels like ages.
Anyway, i did the test and stared at the window and very gradually a line appeared. Definately a line there, but only about half as dark as the control line. My OH confirmed that I wasn't just seeing things and there was definately a line! I did another test this morning as soon as I woke up cos I thought I might get a darker line cos of the hormones being stronger in the morning, it was still feinter than the control line but again - there's no two ways about it i've defo got a line (the test does state that both lines do not need to be the same colour for a positive)
So yes, I'm about 99% sure I have a little bun in my oven. I'm going to get a clearblue tonight so that I can see how many weeks I am (even though according to my calculations I'm 4), and I've made an appointment to see my GP on Monday Morning.
I had to come and tell someone on here... before it burst out of my mouth at work!
