We are jolly well going to get preggers this month and keep it with some Rat smacking, pom pom waving, baking, visualising and brooking no argument. JUST FERTILISE!

Exciting times, 5 days to find an agreeable pee stick should be plenty! I think the earliest I could realistically test would be Sunday.. I am undecided about early testing so far!

dream hope to hear your BFP news in the morning :) good luck

jaggy test in 2 days!!!! or 3 for a definite!!!

well, I'm 8dpo and i usually only make it to 12 or 13 so in 5 or 6 days.

i got a negative at 9dpo with DS and the bfp at 11dpo, this hasn't stopped me testing early some months this time round though. :)

yeah, maybe, i reckon he's feigning reluctance, i bet he's LOVING the super high sex drive!

oh yes jaggy, you are the most scientific and informed (still in awe of the cervix-furtling) and therefore clearly Blindingly Obviously Preggers. It would be most insulting to the good amazon deliverers if you didn't put one to use asap

doesn't it make the evening seem short when DC goes to bed late?!

And jaggy, i know this is The Wrong Thread but i've fed DD in the night every night for the last 3- Boo!!!!!

hi fellow newbe, dream is right, put up your feet and stay a while :)

maybe I bet your DH is loving the attention, mine longs for the day that mine goes up...

when would AF be due for you jaggy? if you weren't pregnant, that is!

Oh, I think so Ninja Day 16 of cycle is day 16 of pregnancy after all

Wow thank you for making me feel so welcome! Thought I had better say hello as I was feeling like a right old lurker and I do love the positivity/realism of this thread.

As I say (though thanks for the stories Dream) I am not expecting an easy ride TTC so preparing myself.

Am very broody though, despite having such a tiny DD!

I've got terrible burps this evening. Do you think that's a symptom? it is day 16 of my cycle after all.

You will be fine Dream in fact, better then fine. Brooking is the new bricking after all.

having the predicted pish week at work, so no internet time at all and no energy! also only got DS to bed just after 8.30, we normally aim for between 7 and half past before the overtired madness starts. he's settled ok though.

aye I'm from quite far up north dream, even for Scotland. :) good luck when you have your ramekin in action. not that you need it being so obviously glowing and pg!

so...

congrats on the bfp scarlet, got me smiling too!

and yay for biscuit crumb biscuits!

my accidental internet cheapies arrived today. it would be rude not to use some soon, there are 25 and one of them has got to be a right one surely?

it will depend on what my temp does over the next few days i think.

BROOK NO ARGUMENT, LADIES AND PEE STICKS! JUST FERTILISE. (and eat cakes)

i'm bricking it munkiii.

I mean, I am Brooking No Argument, it is going to be positive

what do we want? POSITIVE PEE STICKS
when do we want them? NOW!!

why go munkiii? settle in, enjoy the baked goodies, after all, you've not got that long before your BFP in November

Positive stories:
My friend's sister had twins via IVF after a long hard slog to conceive and keep them then got naturally pg after 3 months!!!! And one of DH's colleagues spent 2 years TTC no.1 then had no.2 with no problem and an 18month gap when they'd kind of hoped for longer between them but thought they'd better start trying... You never know

And how many abbreviations can I put in one sentence?!?

Good luck tomorrow Dream!

Number 1 is 8 months old and a little darling she is too.

She will be almost one when we are TTC. Have managed to negotiate a starting date with DH, took 16 months to get pg only to have a mc then get pg without af straight away.

Sorry promised I would go away but it appears I have stayed!

doh. this thread.

note to self, read before posting, regardless of time and potential husband-wrath

ok, the test is a plastic rectangle with a hole in it where you pipette in your positive pee sample and wait for your lines... I think. Whats wrong with a good dunk in a ramekin, i don't know... I am seriously nervous now. Will we make a double confirmation, or have a one out of three succes rate of our cycle buddy trio??!!??

Hi munkiii, but of course we shall, and the instant you join thi thred you will also get your BFP!! How old's number 1?

Novemberish with any luck but there are issues with ovulation and cycles and so on so have started the ball rolling with the clinic. Am convinced it aint going to be easy.... certainly wasn't the first time .

hi munkiii welcome and thanks for the cupcakes, very nice. When do you plan to brook no argument?

Pipettes? Pipettes?? Am I missing something???

Can I just say how much I love your thread, and rejoice in every BFP! I am hoping to start TTC number 2 very soon and would like to say that I am looking forward to joining you all... but I know you will all be long gone onto the grads thread.

Sorry for barging in, but I brought choc chip cupcakes!

I've got everything crossed for you for the morning dream

I was wondering about the pipette too biscuits, good luck poas tomorrow dream!

Good luck Dream if you decide to bring the ramekin into play tomorrow, and the pipette....

And thank you for your lovely comments ladies :)

dream this sounds so wonderfully scientific, my inner geek is jumping up and down with joy! Best of luck for your confirmation!
