Welcome to all!

Grab a glittery tinsel wrapped ramekin, grab some mulled wine and join our very lucky thread.

Oh, and the only reason I asked about the shag was because you thought you had no chance at all given that you only SWId thrice - I'm not a total weirdo asking a random rude question!

Biscuitsandtea · 03/12/2011 15:24

That does make more sense now Imps Xmas Wink

NinjaChipmunk · 03/12/2011 15:36

What wonderful news little I'm chuffed to bits for you. On phone and on bus so will be back later to catch up.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 03/12/2011 16:15

Little that's brilliant!!!!!

musicalmrs · 03/12/2011 16:34

YAY congratulations Little!

Imps7 · 03/12/2011 17:18

Psssy Maybe - I've just made Jamie's get ahead gravy...it's fairly thin so if you like thickish gravy I'd add an extra 1 - 1.5 tbsp of flour. Also, I can really taste the star anise - it's quite strong - I may be inclined to add only 1 next time.

Little - how are you feeling now?? Sunk in yet?! Grin

TheLittleFriend · 03/12/2011 20:27

Thanks everyone, and no imps it's not really sunk in yet. And don't worry, I am wondering which shag did it too, I didn't think it was a weird question! The CB digital said 1-2 weeks, so I think it must have been the CD19 swi or I think it would have said 2-3 weeks.

As for a tutorial, well I wouldn't recommend having tonsillitis then a migraine just before ovulation, but it seemed to work this month! I've been taking 50mg of B6 plus a Bvit complex as normal and using preseed, but having been doing those for months now. Also still been doing the acupuncture. My dp thinks it was our lucky new bedroom (we swapped bedrooms in the house and when I was having a down day a few weeks back he said maybe the new bedroom would bring luck. The first shag in the new room was the CD19 one!!)

Yes maybe, when will you be PIACR?!

Biscuitsandtea · 04/12/2011 09:57

GreenOlives · 04/12/2011 10:19

Xmas Grin Xmas Grin Xmas Grin Yay! Fabulous news Little, I knew you just had to find the right stick
I'm also enjoying the change of bedroom influencing the rat smacking, we have just redecorated our bedroom so surely that will have the same effect

Right Maybe PIACR woman, I can smell another BFP on this thread Xmas Grin

Well the beef crisp smell did not prove the greatest aphrodisiac Xmas Shock so the rat-smacking got postponed on Friday but I more than made up for it last night with a good old drunken post-wedding shag Xmas Wink! SWI and SFF all rolled into one Xmas Grin

Have a lovely Sunday peeps!

possiblemaybebaby · 04/12/2011 10:44

Ah, you guys Xmas Grin you are such bad influences Xmas Grin

I am testing my will power. If nothing by next Friday, I shall PIACR on Saturday. Deal? Excellent Xmas Grin

Olives there is nothing like a drunken shag Xmas Grin after all, that's how all these 'we weren't even trying' babies happen isn't it?! Xmas Grin

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 04/12/2011 11:09

Well my world has been turned upside down overnight. Our house caught on fire. Big time. Fire alarm woke us. We couldn't tackle the fire so we got the hell out of there. Kitchen is ruined my beautiful new kitchen, only fitted in May and the living room is smoke damaged but the rest of the house is just smokey smelling. Please, please check your smoke alarms, they saved our lives.
Doubt there will be much rat smacking for a while, we're staying at my Dad's!

possiblemaybebaby · 04/12/2011 11:15

Oh Have I am so so sorry to hear that. I know this is a silly question, but are you and Mr Have ok?

I feel so terrible for you. Thank goodness for smoke alarms. One of my friends doesn't have any, and I got so mad with her. Sorry for my over use of smileys, they seem so inappropriate now Sad

Do you have any idea when you will be able to move back?

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 04/12/2011 11:31

It's going to be a couple of months I think. Will need a full new kitchen and to replace everything in the living room :(
We are physically ok, maybe a bit of smoke inhalation. I think I went into shock at the time, felt physically sick and couldn't stop shaking. Now we're just shocked like we can't quite believe it happened. Feel like we cheated death. The lead fireman said if we hadn't had fire alarms they'd be collecting our bodies Shock
Don't worry about the smileys, I was only teasing Xmas Smile

possiblemaybebaby · 04/12/2011 11:39

Wow, that really is a sobering thought Have I hope you have lots of people rallying around you. So pleased you are both ok. I suspect it will take a while to get over the shock. It's the thought of what could have happened that is most scary.

Biscuitsandtea · 04/12/2011 12:00

Oh my goodness Have - you poor poor thing.

Thank goodness for your smoke alarms - how awful!

And how frustrating when you've just had a new kitchen to have to get everything done again!. Really though all the material stuff is so unimportant as long as you and MrHave are ok (if a little shaken).

Lucky you have rellies close you can stay with, but do take care. xxx

Biscuitsandtea · 04/12/2011 12:04

Oh, and I have to just ask Maybe (with reference to your plan to test next Saturday) when was AF supposed to have arrived? How much late are you? If you are PG and you don't test soon you'll miss your 20 week scan!

TheLittleFriend · 04/12/2011 12:54

have that's awful, I'm so sorry. I can't imagine how scary it must have been for you. But thank goodness it is only your house that is damaged, not you and mrhave. The house can be fixed, don't worry about that xxxx

musicalmrs · 04/12/2011 13:21

Have, that's so horrible, I'm so sorry. I hope yourself and MrHave are doing as well as can be in the circumstances...

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 04/12/2011 13:53

Thanks everyone. We're ok. Off to get what we need to survive from Tesco. Stupid stuff like we'd done loads of washing which was all ready to bw sorted...in the living room. I have no underwear Shock

possiblemaybebaby · 04/12/2011 14:53

Oh Have hope you got everything you needed. A lady cannot possibly be without knockers. But who was it that suggested going commando instantly got you upduffed...... Grin

Biscuits I am on cd32 today, and I think 16DPO. I think. No sign of AF at all, no spotting or cramping. But I will wait till the weekend so not to tempt fate Hmm

CupcakesAndCocktails · 04/12/2011 15:01

Oh my god, Have that is so terrible. Thank god you and MrHave are ok. Well done for testing those alarms every week. I'm going to test mine now. So sorry your going through all this crap Thanks

And Little bloody hell I just knew you were going to get a BFP! am so pleased for you and MrLittle you really deserve it my love Grin

Right I'm in a bit of a rush. My DH has just told me we are going away tomorrow for a city break for my birthday! I have no idea where. So exciting. Anyway I'm trying to pack now.

Have a lovely few days my fellow rat smackers.

And Maybe get PIACR right now missy. Didnt you say a few days ago it was cd30? I'll be checking in from the airport in the morning.

CupcakesAndCocktails · 04/12/2011 15:03
