New thread, hopefully not clashing with another new thread! This Is Our Month, Rat Smackers.

mmmmm baileys, I get quite naughty when I drink that. Maybe I should buy a bottle to coincide with rat smacking time?

maybebabyR · 08/07/2011 21:24

That sounds like a plan Ninja The rat won't know what's hit it!

maybebabyR · 08/07/2011 23:18

A BFN this evening ladies. I a having a glass of vino and am planning on smacking that bloody rat until he can walk no longer. The rat that is, not to be confused with DH Grin

Thanks for all the support, only I could get 2 dud tests in 1 day!

mememummy · 08/07/2011 23:22

I am POAS twice per day lol thankgod for amazon!! one hpt and one opk negetive on both fronts. i need to learn about CM lol cuz somethings different sorry (tmi) its the baileys....

HidingInTheUndergrowth · 09/07/2011 07:29

Oh maybe, I'm so sorry! I would suggest smacking the rat until DH can't walk seems like an excellent plan :)

Congratulations Love! We are soooo the best thread ever! :o

Welcome back aubers! Where oh where have you been? How are you doing?

My poor pet ratties have been rather quiet recently. Cleary they have been hanging out on ratsnet and are now leaving in fear! Maybe I should spend some time explaining metaphors to them.

Jebel · 09/07/2011 16:37

So sorry maybe, maybe a flickering signal that next time is your time.

Well I am in a hump as check-in lady asked if I am pregnant. Whilst I would like to think she has just caught on to all the certain-thinking about updiffedness, I am in fact rather distressed and going on immediate diet. Think this will help general conception battle plan anyway and there is no time like the present.

I am really trying to stay positive but keep getting BFNs and am sure AF will come tomorrow....

LoveInAColdChamberOfSecrets · 10/07/2011 07:20

Oh no, maybe, I'm really sorry. But by this time next month you will be pregnant, of course. Onwards and upwards!

havealittlefaithbaby · 10/07/2011 09:27

Sorry maybe. That happened to me last month, I got two lines in the afternoon then bfn after that. Gutting I know. Practice month I'm sure.
I'm still waiting to confirm, interesting, went out last night (first day of holiday). Only managed 3 pints of cider and had to leave at 9.30pm! Obviously up the duff.

maybebabyR · 10/07/2011 09:37

Morning everyone! Thank you all for your words of encouragement. I am quite lucky in the fact that technically I should be ovulating now, so maybe this month will still be my month! Had funny cramping pains last night, and (I apologise profusely in advance) some weird CM this morning, like a plug that was a tad brown-tinged. TMI, I know, but exciting stuff having new things Grin

Went to see Transformers at the IMAX last night, and had a few glasses of vino. Trying to tempt that bitch fate Grin

Stay positive Jebel, you shall get your BFP soon.

3 pints Have? Definitely have a bun in your oven

BlooferLady · 10/07/2011 12:07

HELLO RAT SMACKERS!!!

Sorry I am never around. I have a new office and new boss, both of which are slightly dampening my MN ardour, and I am a bare few days away from submitting my thesis so I'm a bit all over the place. But I wanted to swing by and wave at the lovely lurker Alpine, and say CONGRATS to have, and whomever else I've missed, and I read the fred and my heart was in my mouth with maybe's tests - I agree, it's a flickering signal, like a lighthouse lighting the way to diffdom Grin. Er, a bit of me wants to suggest you POAS again what with all the weird mucousesousesei. But it might just be stormingly effective ovulation. I know that sometimes makes for bleedage. In which case best smack day rat with extra enthusiasm!

Talking of which, I have just concluded this month's campaign and am clearly pregnant. We shagged 6 times in my fertile window including, at one point, 4 times in 48 hours. Having led a relatively chaste and gentle sex life I am very proud of this, although it seems to be giving DH Ideas (he just came in off a 15 hour night shift and enquired as to whether 'we ought to do it again' Hmm).

So here's hoping. If this is a failmonth the sore walnut whips will kick in about Tuesday. But obviously I'm diffed so I anticipate boobular pains of a wholly different variety.

Jebel · 10/07/2011 12:39

Wow bloofs you are an inspiration.

No sign yet of AF so am clearly duffed up even though the silly test says not. I reckon I am just drinking too much water in my sleep and diluting it.

BlooferLady · 10/07/2011 12:58

You know, I think one of the reasons I haven't pressed for THAT much Secks in the past is partly because if I do have by (19th!) babyfail it will be SOOOO much worse than when I could just shrug and say, yer, well, didn't expect it anyway, in fashion of moody teenager. Happily however, I am quite clearly thoroughly Expecting so it won't be an ishoo.

CLEARLY duffled, jebel. When were you due? Stupid test. Don't take no for an answer. I vote you dehydrate yourself and try again 5am tomorrow morning.

Poor Aries . Would you like some Poorly Toast?

Ariesgirl · 10/07/2011 13:02

Yes please

havealittlefaithbaby · 10/07/2011 13:17

Nb when I went out last night I had the opportunity to see Barry from eastenders performing live but had to leave before he came on! Shock

HidingInTheUndergrowth · 10/07/2011 13:21

Hello there bloofer! hope thesis is going well. Better get it finished before baby brain kicks in :)

I woke up in terrible abdominal agony this morning, leapt out of bed and ran to the loo thinking I must be having mc only to find no blood at all only the most horrific wind! Blush

LoveInAColdChamberOfSecrets · 10/07/2011 14:50

Hiding, that made me laugh. I have been having cramps but no blood which I am assured by Dr Google is a good thing and means the sproglette is getting herself nice and firrmly stuck in and not some sign of incipient miscarriage. I hope everyone is enjoying this insanely amazing weather?

thelittlefriend · 10/07/2011 19:33

fantastic hiding, now when I have wind I can use it as another sure sign I am absolutely, definitely pregnant.

More exciting news here - I cleaned our whole house today. I'm nesting already on CD6!!

mememummy · 10/07/2011 22:24

I am so clearly updiffed I have just sobbed and I mean -sobbed- at Marley and me I sold all my baby stuff today and got a faint line on an opk. I am also rather sunburnt and slightly tipsy... All good advised to take evening primrose oil to help with Af and aloe Vera syrup? Well any way the even g primrose pill was so big I dint no whether to swallow it or insert it and after a short while trying not to vomit decided to pop it? Wonder if it shall work, I think ur updiffed maybe lol a four times in 48 hrs bloofer my dh seems to be enjoying the practising bit any how....

havealittlefaithbaby · 11/07/2011 00:02

DH, dsis and bil have consumed about 13 beers today. I managed......2 smirnoff ices!

Jebel · 11/07/2011 06:58

meme - definite sign of updiffedness (I am sobbing just thinking about the film so I must be too).

15DPO no sign of AF.

CheerfulYank · 11/07/2011 08:04

Lurking again...cannot wait until I can really be a part of this thread! :)

jaggythistle · 11/07/2011 08:51

well i don't know how many dpo i am or even if i am po (not charting properly), but am clearly expecting based on the following evidence...

  1. i cried a bit at people proposing marriage in comedy ways on an old 'you've been framed'. Confused
  1. i felt really drunk last night after 2 quite large glasses of red wine.
  1. we have SWI every 2 days for the last umpteen days, that rat better be smacked now!

hope all you glowing ladies are having a nice Monday, if there is such a thing. :)

HidingInTheUndergrowth · 11/07/2011 09:05

littlefriend, it is definitely a symptom! I am so full of gas you could tie a string to my ankle and float me about.

Gosh, all this weeping can only be a sign of updiffedness, . Grin
