smack those rats, sniff those drugs; we dont care how, but we will get our babies and we are BROOKING NO ARGUMENT

(just imagine if a tired whale was doing it)

Beedles - huzzah for being PUPO!!

Loops - try not to read too much in to the darkness of lines. A line is a line!

Keep - do you have a date to start your next cycle? Of the 8 ladies in my NCT group, 1 has just had a baby and there's me. So it might not happen as quick as you think.

Cartoon - thank for demanding my sickness disappear. It's not working but it's ok, I'm just grateful to be honest

Yessssssss for being PUPO!

Sorry been a bit busy! Yes I am PUPO :o It was my dr doing the transfer so I managed to persuade her to give me another prescription for progesterone, purely as mental support - she doesn't believe there is any physical need for it

loopy hope it goes ok today, I agree with the others I don't think you'd be able to see the difference between a 10dpo line and a 12dpo line.

imps you are amazing :o

A long weekend in a cottage in the Lake District in November Hooray for Fridays off work and freedom to do trips away!

imps! where are you off to now!?
I'm not jealous at all

gorgeous colours by the way imps.

Oooooops I just accidentally booked another weekend away for me and Mr Imps. I really must be more careful.

now now ladies I feel like the mood here is a little low. we are brookers!
imps the next cycle is yours! same for keep perhaps there will be an ironic bfp .
loopy your bean is perfect, this is the one!
sparks your sickness will end immediately.
beedle you are now pupo, yes?

who have I missed? bugger it you are all preggo because we are brookers. end of.

Here...

Oh Loopy . I am willing this one on with all my might. It's still such early days, I'm not sure you could ever expect a strong line at 12dpo even if you'd had a faint one at 10dpo. Let us know what the consultant says.

Thanks Sparks and Keep. I don't feel particularly amazing but sometimes you've just got to keep on keeping on and confront sadness with yarn head on. Here are the colours I've chosen - will hopefully be a nice combination...

I stayed away from the tests yesterday, but POAS FRER this morning and it's just as faint as Saturday mornings one, so not feeling very positive about this one now. I think I should be 12 dpo today, although might be out by a day as fertility friend wasn't much help this month, so could be 11 dpo I suppose, but I would have thought there would be more of a result today than 2 days ago? So am now fairly convinced this is going to be classed as a chemical pregnancy/5th mc. Was really hoping this would be our one to work, what with the removal of adhesions and the benefit of the d&c, and taking progesterone earlier, and getting such stronger symptoms. Now feel so negative about it all. Will speak about it all with consultant later, but not sure what else he can suggest. Will test again in a couple of days, but if nothing has improved by then then it'll be time to stop the progesterone I guess.

Imps you're actually amazing!!

There's always a plus-side to these sorts of situations Sparks - I just spent a v nice 20 mins selecting some delish yarn colours for their baby blanket. God I love yarn more than is healthy or affordable

Oh Imps, you're only human. I think the closest ones sting the most, and I think it must be even harder to cope when it's linked to a date in your ttc history. I bet you handled it like a trooper though. Be kind to yourself

Hello lovelies, hope you are okay, especially Loopy and Beedles.

Mr I and me are feeling pretty down in the dumps tonight. Saw some v close friends today, and one couple announced their pregnancy. Which is lovely, but their due date is what would have been my due date if the first round of IVF worked. Feels a bit strange to think that she is exactly where I could have been. Not like us to be side-swiped by pregnancy announcements (god knows there are enough of them!) but this one has stung a little bit today.

Oh well, onwards and upwards - the next round of IVF will work and that's that.

any news beedle & loopy? Brooking for you both.

Fingers crossed loopy

Imps alas im still full of the sickness it lasted 20 weeks with Twinks so I'm expecting the same!!

My scan on Thursday moved my dates forward slightly so I'm now 12+5 every one has been told

I hope this one is the one loopy brook brook brook

imps have fun in london town - you know I always assumed that was where you live but obviously not!

No phone calls :o :o so we're leaving soon for the hospital

Hi Gen!

Pasta it does not seem like almost 4 years ago that we started brooking... but my brooking boy is 3 as well now so it must be!

All the Brooks for you loopy!

Cups that is awful for your friend. :( I'm almost 38 weeks now and still a bit of a worrier. It's uncomfortable enough without a transverse baby as well, poor you! Have been having a lot of painful BHs this week which is freaking me out a bit, not feeling ready for baby 3 to appear yet!

Brooking hard for your frosty too beedle.

Have a nice weekend Imps . :)

yay for heading into 2ND trimester Sparks!

Off to sit around and distract my kids with a DVD for a bit...
