@OldMrsMcDonald: Lol, hiking/camping and not having a restroom makes you very skilled at aiming your pee. ๐ Even first thing in the morning. Although I will say I only use the bag trick when I’ve peed and realized that I didn’t grab a stick and need to catch and use the tiniest bit left.

@daybyday: I just got caught carrying the cup to the bathroom by 2 different people. Luckily my OPK was hidden – otherwise rumors would have spread. Luckily no one asked me why I was carrying a cup…but I already worked up my excuse – going to take a pill and need water.

Didn’t take very long to get email from DH regarding my purchase. I was complaining to him that my call time for my job today was way too early because I’m sitting here doing nothing and he said yea, buying stupid stuff on Amazon. Gotta love him!

@MrsBaldEagle: Oh good one! I keep cases of bottle water in my office so I don’t think I could get away with that excuse. Hopefully no one will ever notice! I go home over my lunch hour, so I
plan to do most of my peeing in private. ๐

@FreckledFox: Yay, congrats to your husband!
@OldMrsMcDonald: Boo for temp drop. But on the plus side, it’s awesome that you’re almost done with the move! It’s so brutal, every time. Ugh.

@OldMrsMcDonald: @MiJeS1104: I had the same question about how you pee on them awhile ago. Ended up getting dixie cups, definitely not coordinated enough to pee in the package like
@FreckledFox !

@MiJeS1104: Sorry I’m late to the party!! I just buy dollar disposable cups like the ones you buy for parties. They are cheap, big enough and the best part disposable.

@OldMrsMcDonald: Sorry about the BFN. I’m right with you. Yet, AF has not made her appearance.

@PeachBee: I was reading TCOYF the other day, and I did come across a paragraph that said some women ovulate without a temp shift to confirm it. I believe it’s very rare, but it is possible.

@SaltedCaramel: Thanks for the kind words, ladies. I have a meeting with my OB scheduled for Friday to go over my blood test results. Fingers (and toes) crossed!
And now I have A LOT of catching up to do on this thread. I’m behind by about 5 pages.

@MiJeS1104: I liked ordering the combo pack, because then you have cheap pregnancy tests around to pee on all the things without wasting a FRER ๐ Also, I just use regular old disposable plastic cups that we had left over from some get-together, like
these.

@daybyday: OMG, yeah, it was hilarious when I had to explain to DH what the plastic cup under the sink was for. He was like “You need to label it or something, what if I used it for a drink?!”
@MiJeS1104: Haha, I don’t know what I would do if DH got emails about my Amazon purchases….I make some impulse purchases on there that I’d rather not have to justify ๐

@MiJeS1104: @SadieBee: My DH has no idea what these “things” I have are. He knows I chart my cycles and if I buy something new, I just always say, “it’s a charting thing, you don’t want to know” and he doesn’t ask questions. I posted a story here a couple months ago- I forgot to put away an OPK that I was letting dry and he saw it and was really really freaked out and confused. He says very slowly… “what is that stick and why does it have two lines?????” I couldn’t help but laugh. He was white as a ghost! So now he knows what they are. I used to hide them, but I’m over it. Pretty sure he knows by now!

@OldMrsMcDonald: Bwahahah ๐ Oh man, if this is how creative I can be with OPKs, I don’t even want to know what I’ll be doing with HPTs!
