Hi there x
I took a test first thing this morning (yes I know I was told I hadn't ovulated  ) and I didn't get either the control line or the test line.
It was a freebie from the doctor, so maybe it's just a really old test. I take it no lines at all means it's faulty? Milliemoo |

hummmm well I didn't have a dropper, so used a plastic tea spoon and it said you only need 2-3 drops, but I used a bit more. I could see the paper absorbing the pee.
Ho hum... think I'll get a posh one from the supermarket

I bought some posh POAS's from the supermarket today 
I know I'm mad, since my serum progesterone suggests it's highly unlikely I O'd but if my temp is still up tomorrow, I'll test. Can't say I have any real symptoms, but I had what I thought was O pain this month and I spotted lightly around what could be implantation. We'll see. Milliemoo |
