Er, No. Well, actually, I think there's a very rare condition that can produce one. Is positive a bad thing then? Sorry.. dont know your situation.

Is that number 4 or some such mad amount?
I know I'm going to hope for an accident, but there's no way we can have more than our two!

blimey Mnet seems to be superfertile at the moment!
hope it spreads to me....

On topice, think it's very rare to get a false positive, much more common to get a false negative. Sorry if that's not what you want to hear!

Er, I'd say you're pregnant too, sorry. False negative is much more likely tbh.

nope, sorry.

false negatives, yes, but only a very rare hormonal imbalance (very, very rare condidtion) could cause a false positive.

Is an extension an option instead of moving? Must be a bit cheaper and less stressful. Ooh, I'm getting all clucky and axcited even though I dont know you. Still got post natal hormones doing their thing Smile
I really hope this doesn't require a triple buggy though... what a nightmare!!

number 5?! wow!
ds2 was in our room for 9 months till we squished him in with ds1. def need to move now tho.

Feeling really terrible today, i keep looking the results and part of me is happy (a 3rd was planned, but not for a few years) and part of me wishing it was not happening. Thinking of all the ppl who are ttc really hard and feeling guilty.

Blimey...I think if MN have down time again they need to send out condoms or something....maybe DVD's will do itGrin

There are LOADS of us newly PG.

It'll be fine MofM, mine we're 3 and 1 when I was PG with ds3. They loved him from the minute he appeared, never a dot of jealously from any of them.

I've just found out I'm pg again, utterly shocked at first but it soon sinks in although like magnolia! i'm trying to work out where the poor thing will sleepGrin
Apparently the bottom drawer can be useful in these circumstancesGrinGrin
