ooh putting the stick in his stocking is a fab way of telling him (assuming you know he will be pleased)

tillyblue - am sure you know this already BUT if you are going to wrap one up for your DH, don't use a digital one unless it's within a few hours of peeing on it- the screen goes blank after a while!

massive congratulations!!!

Ha ha ! Think he will probably wonder why I am not rolling around drunk on the floor at the parties coming up though. Antibiotics perhaps?

Mrsboogie, we had a mc about 18months ago and have been trying in a race against the ageclock ever since so I KNOW he will be pleased.{fgrin]

oh I wish I could tell him now but it IS nice telling you all.

The line was very very faint but was much more obvious an hour later.

It is hidden in my laundry basket cos the kids kept coming downstairs!

You dont think it could be wrong do you?

A line is a line!!!

My very faint line is upstairs asleep aged 3

Have you got another test? Could do first morning wee to put your mind at rest?

Congratulations, and I love the idea of putting it in your dh's stocking.

My dh doesn't have a stocking.

This year we have gone back to filling up a stocking with silly stuff like we did a hundred years ago when we first lived together.
