We are all jolly well going to get preggers this month in a nonchalant non-psycho way, and hang onto it, and there will be no brooking of any argument whatsoever!

[ScreamIfYouWantToGoFaster]

Welcome across Rat Smackers! Glad you found the place okay. This is THE MONTH when we get those deceitful pee sticks to own up to the BLINDINGLY OBVIOUS - we are all already preggers! After all; positive people get positive pee sticks!

I hope you all like what I've done with our new home

You'll note the updated title, courtesy of farfalla. Various healthy snacks have been set out on the coffee tables, to ensure our bumps are receiving the appropriate nutritional balance

Also, my personal favourite adjustment, you'll note the strategically positioned peephole, right here, providing us with a sneaky preview of the utopian delights awaiting us in the NO BROOKING vomitorium ante-natal thread.

So let's get to it preggos! Remember: see a rat - smack it!

I check MN on my phone before getting out of bed

Oooooo I can't believe I forgot to mention a hugely important factor!! I was recently complaining to my Mum that I seem to wreck about 3 pairs of tights a week, and therefore I keep running out of tights. My Mum then turned up at my house with 40 (yes FORTY!!) pairs of my favourite tights (bless her) all in my usual size. However with all the bloating currently going on I can barely fit into them, and I'm bound to have a confirmed BFP in short order because it will immediately render the entire collection of tights unusable for the next year!!

Phew! Glad I remembered to share this CRUCIAL piece of information!

So umm.... where is Maybe? Ninja? Little? Tinfairy? Just curious, you know, in a totally nonchalant kind of way.

I'm here Scream

Oops, x-posts with Maybe.

Soooooooooo exciting!!! Go Maybe! Go Maybe!

Pleeeeeeeeease go buy an First Response!!! Go on....!

I will go and get one. Even if it is negative, I can forget about it. Maybe I am having a mythical annovulatory cycle. I know lots of people say how common they are, but I have never ever had one. I have never been late either.

Oh, and my potential bump would be due 2nd April, and I just got an email from Gap introducing their maternity jeans.

Maybe - you are soooo up the duff, I can smell the HCG from over here.
Get thee to a chemist and buy a First Response pronto.

I am with you on the internet cheapies, lots of smudges, I think they are pretty useless but necessary when you are a POASaholic frankly.

The irony is, I live opposite a huge boots. But I am sick and acting like a hermit, and the idea of actually having to get out of pyjamas is making me break out into a cold sweat

But should I not wait to wee on it till tomorrow?

You're looking to a person who POAS'd for the first time at 7 DPO for sensible advice re pee sticks?!?!

You have to go with what you feel comfortable with. If you can take the answer either way, and stay positive, then go for it! If an unhappy answer (from a lying pee stick!) will make you wish you had waited for FMU, then it might be better to wait.

(Although personally I think you sound TOTALLY upduffed and I'm desperate for you to confirm it!!)

Bloody hell maybe go and get yourself a proper pee stick!! You're killing me woman!!!!!

Buy a double pack, do one now and one tomorrow morning, that is what I would do. Go on, 2 smudges definitely merit a FR in my book.

Sorry Imps I have turned into one of those annoying people who try to open a bag of crisps quietly in a cinema, so does it really slowly, rather than doing it quickly. Probably should have used the plaster example instead, but you see where I am coming from.

Will go and get one soon, promise.

Now! Now! Now! Now! Now! Now! Now!! "Soon" isn't soon enough.

Maaaaayyyybbbeeeeeeeee you ARE you really ARE! Oh yes, I agree with Farfalla that you should buy a twin pack and DO ONE NOW!! We can't wait any longer, never mind you!

Oh and by the way, just to set the record straight, DH is very lovely but a romantic he is not! We only have date night tonight because we babysat three of our nephews at the weekend (we had them over to stay so we had four kids in the house - good practice I think you'll agree) and SIL has decided to return the favour by babysitting tonight so we could go out with other SIL and BIL. Soooo, date night it is! Mind you, when I reminded DH about it this morning he said 'Oh yeah, I forgot about that'. Humph.

Where's Little ? Good luck with fanny cam but we all know you won't need it due to your ironic BFP this morning - don't we? Hmm?

Scream come on girl, just one day to wait before your BFP - are you excited? The cramps are clearly stretching pains

Gosh, you pregnant ladies don't half chat! :o

Nice new thread though, love the decor and cakes. I am being really lazy and am still in bed :o

Anyway..where are all the BFPs? Come on, get to it!

Hello hiding! Hope you are feeling better.

Right, Maybe, WHERE ARE YOU.

I hope you have nipped down to Boots.
Grab me some salt and vinegar hula hoops while you are there, will you?

I hope she's gone to Boots, otherwise I will give her a Stern Talking To.

Morning all!

Loving the new home... Like what you've done with the place. Now where are these home baked goods I've been reading about?

Snowed under here so will go back and catch up on all I've missed later. Just wanted to check in and get on the new thread.

Pee sticks are still being cryptic but its pay day today so I may forgo the usual drinks at lunchtime to mark the occasion and treat myself to a shiny new pack of FRs. What has become of my life ??!

Ooh Tin nice to see you. By cryptic do you mean there was a tiny line? If so, get thee to the shops and get a FR! We need more BFPs today!

Positive people get positive pee sticks
What do we want? Positive pee sticks! When do we want them? NOW!

Maybe have you got the tests?!!!!! I'm on the edge of my seat!

Good luck for today Little

I am having a banana sandwich for my lunch whilst casually picking out the nursery furniture for mini babysade

And tin of course!!!

Sorry to disappoint fellow rat smackers, but it is negative. Ah well, just my body playing silly buggers. Chance are now I have done that, AF will come!

Oh Maybe I'm so sorry to hear that

Try to stay positive, your BFP is practically here! Just keep brooking no argument and you will win out over the annoying pee sticks in the end. Never forget (as I keep being told!) it isn't over until the red lady sings!

Maybe :(

Stupid pee sticks, try again tomorrow with FMU?

Any tips for luring my DH into bed next week? Rat smacking time falls in the week this month and he is always pretty knackered and stressed from work.
Weekends provide much more rat smacking opportunities.

Oh Maybe so sorry, we all got a bit carried away there. What's going on though? You must be fed up. Hope you feel better soon and remember it is still your month until the red lady sings as scream says.
