Brooking No Argument for Positive Pee Sticks, Healthy Pregnancies and Home-made Cakes!!!

Good lord no, shiny! Get thee to a shop and buy some Gu hot chocolate soufles. You get ramekins and yummy chocolate dessert. What's not to like?

Hmm. Spotting has gone quiet. Will see what happens after the ride home - physical exertion always seems to kickstart it.

Oooo heart shaped, I think you should save them Shiny and use an ordinary one for PIAR :)

Stasi PIAR is Pee In A Ramekin as opposed to POAS.

stasi PIAR is Pee In A Ramekin - as a lot of cheapy tests need to be dipped rather than peed on directly :)

Lol @ shiny! They would be very appropriate, though!! I have a single heart-shaped ramekin I bought from the RSPCA charity shop for 20p, but I have yet to use it as I have no idea what people actually do with ramekins when they're not peeing in them? :o

Another one whose DH is blissfully ignorant. I think he would freak out if he knew the extent of my baby-itis... that, and his canned response is usually "we just need to shag more, clearly!"

I just have some new, very nice, heart shaped ramekins which we got as a wedding present.

I may break one in by ceremoniously using it for my PIAR on Friday!

However, maybe not as would never be able to use again!

Thanks Farfalla I think you're right. I wasn't really having much faith with the opks for that very reason but just wanted to get an idea of what was happening whilst on the clomid as I've also read that you can ovulate between 5 & 9 days after taking the last pill which is early for me on my normal cycle (usually day 17/18) and added to that, clomid can also affect your CM so didn't have that as an indicator either. With the pains I had on sunday I am deducing I must have ovulated then or monday which would be day 14 or 15. We've been doing our best with the SWI...we're taking a break today but may put in a couple of security SWIs over the next couple of days!!

Generic & Cake I am so excited for you! DH knows I read this thread as I tell him various tit bits i've learned from you all, but not sure he's twigged I post too :)

solars it must be the clomid. At least it is really obvious for you when you should be getting in some swi

Ok generic I'll join you if AF hasn't arrived. I had a BFN this morning though so not hugely hopeful!

Got everything crossed for you generic

It is clearly pg hormones Scrambled and I will not hear otherwise!

Cake I hear you re the knicker checking. Care to join me in PIAR tomorrow?

Solars hope the Clomid is going well and thw SWI too.

Farfalla glad you feel a bit better today. Hurrah for this thread - my DH is clueless about any of this - I don't talk to him about my fertile times, late AF etc. If I PIAR tomorrow you lot will be the first to hear of it! He cares of course, but finds the whole early pregnancy thing v stressful so if it is good news, I may keep it to myself (and the rat smackers) for a little bit. Gosh - getting carried away!

Pops in to Brook like crazy for generic cake and scrambled

cake I hate the knicker checking stage, literally in the loo every 10 mins. Be strong!

solars my CBFM specifically says you can get false readings whilst on clomid (I think it increases LH) so best to SWI a lot just in case!!

No, I never post on AIBU either, but do like a look at it same as popcorn

Sorry you are feeling weepy scrambled hopefully it is those pesky hormones.

at Maybe I always get worried about whether mine work or not, but can't be bothered to click on the preview button as someone would have posted something else by then!

Thanks for the explanation, will have to check it out, don't think i'll be posting on it either!

Hope you feel better soon DrMunk

Scrambled I hope Cake is right and it's pg hormones.

My italics failed spectacularly. But I'm sure Generic still gets the picture

Ooooh, away for a few hours, and there is exciting testing news brewing in the camp!!!

Oh scrambled sorry to hear you are feeling weepy hopefully it is pg hormones. I'm brooking for you.

Thank you for all the brooking I am knicker checking a lot today

popcorn I agree about AIBU I would never have the guts to post!

I don't tend to post in AIBU, I do sooo love to rubberneck :o

Cake you're getting a bit ahead of yourself I think! Or at least ahead of me. I would love to be testing soon but am feeling a bit crampy and weepy so AF seems imminent . Still spotting a bit.

Anyway, I'll keep you all posted.

I've hidden AIBU. Too many unkind people looking for a fight recently. Chat is much nicer, I tend to hang around in there.

AIBU is Am I being unreasonable, a part of MN that tends to have quite a few fights in!!

I have given up with my OPKs TBH, another positiveish one today, seems odd but i will see what consultant says in December. Three days isn't uncommon though Solars so don't worry.

And thank you for remembering!

Feel awful today, sick and tired. Probably a bug.

I too, am brooking very hard for everyone. Especially the trio scrambled, cake and generic. Best of luck.

You girls don't half chat :)

So sorry you were not feeling too good yesterday Farfalla, I can't top the excellent words of wisdom from the rest of the rat smackers but just wanted to give you a big {{hug}}. Glad you are feeling much better today though!

Still brooking no argument extra hard for Cake, Scrambled & Generic

EEEK Generic so looking forward to your POAS or PIAR

By the way i'm probably being a bit thick here but what is AIBU??

Also DrMunk I too have been testing positive 3days in a row now on my opks DH and I think it may be because of the clomid (?)

Whoop victory for peer pressure!

Now scrambled when will you be testing hmm?

Yay! POAS!!!

Ooh Generic that's so exciting!

Might? Might?! sign here here here and here :o

Generic - they warn you about smoking and drinking peer pressure, but never POAS pressure! ;)
