Your last thread got somewhat derailed so I thought I would treat you to a lovely shiny new place full of real open fires, fluffy blankets and an aga for baking bread and warming soups and stews. Back on with the job in hand ladies, lets have a round up of who's doing what and when.

Psh. Fox is too busy celebrating to share how it went with us Wink

ControlGeek · 17/11/2013 19:38

Grin hope he's taken it well, fox!!

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 17/11/2013 18:22

Ooh, she should have told him by now Grin how exciting!

We've got him an I pad Musical so we're pretty much not going to see him till he's 18 Wink but as it's a school day, we're taking him out for dinner, then letting him do what he wants on Saturday, ending in me and him at the cinema watching Dr Who in 3D.

Ooh Boo how exciting! What have you got planned?

Fox, well done on not telling your mum! especially when she was asking about GP appointments etc! Can't wait to hear all about you telling DH Smile

Fox82 · 17/11/2013 16:46

Hi everyone! Hope it's been a good weekend for you all. I have just got in from work - it was a nice distraction today!

MrF should be home within the next hour! He was there on Friday morning when I was looking at the stick that I'd peed on 24 hours before Blush But I told him as 24 hours had passed it probably didn't mean much and I'd do another one on Sunday. So I think he's going to ask if there's any stick related news, and I'll say "Oh yeah I don't know, what do you think about this one?" and hand him the digi Grin I had to do another digi as the original one ran out of battery - probably as it was out of date - and this one says 2-3 Grin I'm hoping I can convince MrF that means 2-3 babies Grin Grin Grin

Oh and I'm very impressed with myself that I didn't tell my mum, even though we skype my brother while I was there, and also as when we were alone she mentioned the gp results and asked what happens next for us.

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 17/11/2013 11:20

Forgot to ask Fox did you manage to not tell your mum?

Ooh yes Fox I can't wait to hear all about it!

All good here thanks Boo. Currently playing the when-could-AF-arrive dance. How's everything with you and your lovely family?

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 17/11/2013 09:17

Ooh Fox what time is DH home? You must update us with all the teary details Grin

Morning everyone, how's are you all?

Geek, I'm fine, lovely! Just finding it hard to wrestle the laptop away from DH. No symptoms to speak of except for a weird burnt tongue feeling and slightly larger boobs. Not as big as they were on Thursday, though - that was excessive!

So pleased to hear about MrGeek's DD! That's ruddy marvellous.

Grin at Musical and the AF apps.

Brooking for an assisted BFP v soon!

Fox82 · 16/11/2013 17:52

Thanks cake and musical! Currently sat at my mums trying my hardest not to tell. MUST tell MrF first!

Yes yes, most definitively brooking for an assisted brooker to be next

musicalmrs · 16/11/2013 16:29

Ooh and you of course Cake!

musicalmrs · 16/11/2013 16:28

I've bee thinking about nurse too. Hope she's doing ok.

We do need new recruits! Who do we have here now? Geek, Beedle, Cups, Scarlett, nurse and me.. who have I missed? (I'm sure I've missed many a Brooker).

I've been confusing fertility/charting apps. They're not too impressed that my last AF was August 2011 Grin

musicalmrs · 16/11/2013 16:24

Oh Geek that's lovely news about MrG's DD! Bet he's over the moon :-)

Fox congratulations again lovely :-)

Another triple whammy- or quadruple whammy- would be lovely! Who's next to test? Is it Geek with her surprise BFP after hotel swi? Wink I think the next BFP should definitely be an assisted Brooker ( or maybe a surprise bfp for an assisted brooker).

CakePigeon · 16/11/2013 14:03

fox! Great news that's amazing :)

I'll catch up with everything else later, we are back home now and I'm all poorly and feeling rubbish AND have AF so feeling sorry for myself! Hope everyone else is doing well, Saturday Wine to all!

Fox82 · 16/11/2013 11:31

Oh I hope nurse comes back soon!

I tested again today with an ic. Another faint line, but seemed to take longer to appear. I think I'll test at least once every day until I run out of tests Smile I really want to see the lines get darker! And I want to do my next digi in a week to see if the result changes to 2-3 weeks.

Glad you've got an end date cups and hope the time goes quickly! It's nice you've got a week off in that time too.

NoMaybeAboutIt · 16/11/2013 11:15

Oh Cups what a nightmare!! I hate it when that happens!! Brilliant news you have a finish date! You can now start crossing the days off Wink

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 16/11/2013 11:01

I think we do need some newbies especially as Stacks and Too had the cheek to get BFPs straight away!

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 16/11/2013 10:47

Morning brookers and preggos!

I managed 8 hours of sleep before waking up in a panic that I forgot to do something at work Hmm I've negotiated a finish date with my boss of the 12th jan so I've got 8 weeks left to survive! I've got a week of annual leave in there in 2 weeks as well.

Fox I bet it doesn't feel real! Have you done another test?

Geek that's fantastic news about MrGs DD Grin

Boo I was thinking about nurse too. Hopefully she's too busy being a nurse and having fun to check in here!

NoMaybeAboutIt · 16/11/2013 10:37

Grin Boo, MrM wouldn't let me buy any more, so I had to make do with 4 Grin

The lovely Nurse is taking a little break at the moment.

We need some new recruits don't we?

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 16/11/2013 10:33

Has anyone seen Nurse lately? She could make it quad whammy

Fox how are you doing today, have you tested again? There's no shame in admitting it, I did at least 1 every day for 2 weeks just for the thrill of seeing the lines come up Grin

OP posts:
Fox82 · 16/11/2013 09:42

What wonderful news geek! So pleased for you and MrG! And glad you're feeling good from the antibiotics

I'm feeling strange this morning. Woke suddenly at 5am thinking it was all a dream! I'm hoping MrF won't mind me telling my brother! Smile No, I'm sure he won't mind. Just got to stop myself from telling my mum when I see her today!!

Can't wait to see who the next brooker will be! Grin

NoMaybeAboutIt · 16/11/2013 09:12

Oh Geek that's amazing news! I bet MrG was so chuffed!

And if course it needs to be a quad whammy. Record breaking brooking.

ControlGeek · 16/11/2013 08:58

How about we make it a quad whammy? Right ladies, who's due when? Wink

fox how are you feeling this morning? I cannot believe you have told DB before MrF! And as for that facebook comment, well...

too are you ok lovely? Hope you're just busy with everything xx

Can I just say, antibiotics are truly the most wonderful thing!!! I feel almost human again!

Had a lovely surprise yesterday evening - MrG's DD got in touch Shock She sent him a really lovely email and even gave him pointers on what to buy/not buy for Christmas. This wasn't her being cheeky by the way - his last email to her asked if there was anything she particularly wanted.

NoMaybeAboutIt · 15/11/2013 22:20

But Boo, I want another one!! Scarlett, Cups and Geek. On the same day. Synchronise ladies!!

Hope you get a good sleep Cups

Fox typical man!!
