is it the same as dpo?
I always just went on about how much better I'd feel if I just knew until dh gave in and told me to do what I wanted Grin

NoMaybeAboutIt · 15/07/2013 18:37

I wanted to, but I've been told no!! It's a week since I had my transfer!

cartoontrickster · 15/07/2013 18:36

maybe could you test in the morning now? how many days has it been?

NoMaybeAboutIt · 15/07/2013 18:26

You're always welcome Boo!

NoMaybeAboutIt · 15/07/2013 18:25

I don't normally have a sweet tooth Sweetie but the last few weeks I've developed one!!

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 15/07/2013 18:23

Off chocolate Sweetie you will need to have a word with those babies when they arrive, making you go off it indeed!! It's not on Wink

I an inviting myself to brookers houses today, I'm going to Geeks for a sit on her sofa, I will come to yours for some ice cream. Anyone else got something for me to visit for?? Definitely not going to 'Sweetie's* with any flip flops Grin

SweetieTime · 15/07/2013 18:20

not heard of Rossi either. Can I also confess to going off ice cream and chocolate since been a preggo. it is most bizarre Hmm Confused

NoMaybeAboutIt · 15/07/2013 18:18

That's a good plan Boo Grin

NoMaybeAboutIt · 15/07/2013 18:18

If I could Boo, is send you up a tub! I fear it may melt....

Trix I'm not normally one for testing. But this is a completely different situation. If I hadn't had some spotting I don't think I would want to test early

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 15/07/2013 18:17

I never discussed it with Mr B, both times he was presented with a pre pee'd on stick showing the correct result Grin that way he didn't know just how mental and expensive about testing I really was GrinGrin

cartoontrickster · 15/07/2013 18:14

maybe me and dh have always had a differing opinion on testing. for me I'd rather just do it. then I know and can be prepared for the witches arrival rather than being caught unawares. but maybe that's just me.

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 15/07/2013 18:13

Who is this Mr Rossi of which you speak???? Not heard of him up t'north.

NoMaybeAboutIt · 15/07/2013 18:10

Grin Trix. I want to test, MrM says I can't. Spoil sport. I need to spread the Rossi love!!

cartoontrickster · 15/07/2013 18:08

how are my favorite ttcer's?
I have never heard of Mr Rossi sounds like I'm missing out.
maybe are you ok? do you not feel tempted to test?
I got too distracted by the icecream and didn't actually read back properly Blush I am the worst brooker ever.

NoMaybeAboutIt · 15/07/2013 17:59

How can you not of heard of mr Rossi??!! It's immense!! I had ordered raspberry ripple, rum and raisin and a scoop of honeycomb!! They do amazing lemon sorbet too. I demand you all come down here to sample it!!

Yes Nurse, I couldn't eat a whole one. MrM could though. He loves car porn and tools. He jut came back with a set of drill bits that are for use when you need to remove a broken screw. Yes, he's that type of man

Solars · 15/07/2013 17:46

I second Boo's advice on MrWhippy being a no no, the midwife told me the same at my appointment last week!

I've never heard of Rossi Maybe and MrM is too lovely!!

nearlyanurse · 15/07/2013 17:46

Ps, why did I know not of this Rossi maker of the ice-cream when mr nurse was in Essex??? He probably knew about it and didn't tell me on purpose! Sneaky one that mr nurse.

nearlyanurse · 15/07/2013 17:44

some chocolate orange, yes maybs. A whole chocolate orange would just give you the heavy boke, as it has me!

Mr maybs sounds like a keeper. I occasionally ask for a prezzy when mr nurse goes shopping - he usually comes back with a motorbike magazine. He loves a bit of bike porn. Me, I prefer grazia.

NoMaybeAboutIt · 15/07/2013 17:40

Nurse you proper made me laugh!!

No Boo it was Rossi. I don't know if you northerners understand Rossi. But it's the bollocks. And it was the proper shop so they had all the flavours!!

I thought they'd relaxed the mr whippy rule too. I can't keep up wih what you are/aren't allowed.

I'd love some chocolate orange...

And I was correct. MrM came back with a few new body butter and some lovely new pjs for me (no commenting Sparks). He also bought mint poppets, chocolate orange truffle bars and tea cakes with the jam in them. I must make it clear that whilst he bought them for me, he will be the one who eat most of it Grin

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 15/07/2013 17:37

Afraid not Nurse they're not worried about the germs and bacteria though, just that it's not pasturised Hmm Tis why I made sure to be preggo during the winter so I could enjoy a summer of Mr Wippy goodness Grin

nearlyanurse · 15/07/2013 17:28

Wait boo, you mean you're still not allowed germ/bacteria-ridden mr whippy??? I thought they changed that rule!!! Am gonna have to rethink the whole ttc-thing based on this revelation.

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 15/07/2013 17:24

Actually, if it was a Mr Wippy you did right to turn it down in your condition Grin

nearlyanurse · 15/07/2013 17:17

Right maybe am about to let loose with some tough love - too sad for ice cream?? That's crazy talk!! Ice cream makes everything and anything a bit better. Promose you'll never turn down ice cream immediately, or I'm not sure we can be friends. I just read your comment and wolfed down a chocolate orange at the thought of someone turning down ice cream. And I thought I was mental!

NoMaybeAboutIt · 15/07/2013 16:58

It's very me Gobbo love a bit of science me Grin. In treating myself to some yoo moo. Nom. Am gutted though, we went to the sea side today. Went to the cockle sheds, and then went to get ice cream. MrM got my ice cream while I was in the loo. That's when I noticed the blood. So I was too sad to eat my ice cream and then wanted to come home. So I missed out on the ice cream, and chips on the pier Sad. Needless to say, MrM ate my ice team on top of his Grin

Gobbolinothewitchscat · 15/07/2013 16:54

Oops! It still made me laugh. A lot! Grin

This is excellent though - another day nearly done. Reading back through the thread and I'm liking the sound if the very high tech test you have
