The rat smacketeers are brooking no argument!! All for one BFP and one BFP for all!

[Imps7]

Smacket on, ladies...

Excellent, thanks Stasi!

Generic I had an ectopic when I was about 19, didn?t know I was pregnant til it got to 9 weeks and ruptured taking the whole tube with it. Nearly killed me! Was very scary?

Hello sparkle nice to meet you [btw I use an old suntan lotion bottle cap instead of a ramekin! It?s very innocuous and not out of place in the bathroom]

Hello everyone else I?m a tad delicate after another work-y awards do last night so am reading you all but will not be able to remember anything long enough to comment individually

I have declared March a booze-free month, someone said somewhere on MN that your body starts preparing for each cycle before the last one ends so am CD12 now [stupid 6 days late last period means I?m totally out of sync with you all now ] and following my hycosy on Tuesday I am going to be popping out super-eggs for the next couple of cycles ? not that it matters of course as I'm already nearly 2 weeks pg

Back on propoints too. I just found a pic of me when I was 18 and I had beautiful skinny little twig like arms . I lost 5lbs doing 26 points a couple of weeks ago ? I've lost anoth 1-2lbs since then so going in the right direction, I just want to be a proper size 12 again really, not says12butreallymeans14andswopshangerswhenOHisn?tlooking

froot OMG CDWHAT??? That?s pants!

imps by paying for a years subscription to FF you have bought your BFP, that is a given, just like popcorn did with her CBFM

Heidi-Hi Brookers

Well done, bean!

Morning all
Scarlett booze free March sounds fab and just think of the points you can use on other things cake and chocolate all good my dear.

Bean well done on finishing the book, you have a nice rest and get your feet up, difficult with DS but do try.

I caved in and POAS this morning, BFN , why do we do it to ourselves?? Bet AF is cackling away to herself as she is planning her arrival later today. Oh well onward and upward to updiffedness.

I am very delicate today! Over indulged on the vodka last night Then DS decided to be ill in the night so I have had approx 3 hours sleep And after the miracle that is Calpol he is now full of beans and wanting to play - arrgh! And DH won't be home until 3pm, not sure I can survive. And then I have to go to work tonight - I really should know better at my age I think I may have to consider being alcohol free for the rest of the month too - we could be the tee-total brookers?!

Hope you're feeling better today Imps and you too Maybe. Good luck with a bit of RL time Bean. And don't be down hearted Sweetie, just got to keep trying until you find an agreeable stick

Happy Friday Brookers! xx

Morning all

Sorry for the radio silence, 2 very busy day at work, puppy school last night, and now I am very ill. Off to docs in a bit

Sweetie keep that chin up

Hope you are feeling better Imps

Olives and Scarlett you dirty stop outs you Have a sausage sarnie with brown sauce. And a lucozade.

Bean well done you on the book. What's your next project?

Bartlett so good to have you back with us

Ladies, I am struggling to see (eyes have closed up* but I will name check properly later. Love to all x

Look at all these people hitting the booze town on a school night! Hope you had lots of fun last night Olives even if you are suffering today.

Maybe hello!! Hope you're okay and that the doc can sort you out. Poor thing, have a nice bowl of spicy sweet potato soup.

Sweetie, that pesky pee stick. It's only a matter of time before you find the one for you.

Am feeling a little better this morning - temps have come down a bit and my pregnancy rhinitis cold has eased off ever so slightly. Feeling pretty worn out today though - had a netball match last night and I've recently changed positions which means I need to run around more - absolutely knackering. Came home to a candle lit bath that OH had run for me though which help ease my muscles and lift my spirits and unclog some snot

Weekend plans for you all?

Oh no, get well soon, Maybe.

Glad you are feeling a bit better, Imps.

Do we have a stats thread at all anywhere? It was great when I was on the antenatal thread so I could remember who everyone was and where they were on their 'journey'. Is that something we might want here?

GreenOlives, that sounds painful! But after this month, you won't be drinking any alcohol once your BFP is confirmed, so I suppose I can let you off.

Sweetie, it's not over until the fat lady sings. With both DS and DD, my BFP has only arrived once AF is a couple of days late.

I'm up for a stats thread Bartlet because my memory is so poor I can't ever remember where people are at

You've taught DH well Sparks!

Anyone seen Far? I want to know how Farfette is coming along.

Happy Friday all!

Bean well done on your book. I'm just waiting for your BFP now.

Scarlett so sorry to hear of your EP - that must have been very frightening. I, too, am a size 12 but probably in all honesty nearly a 14. Mind you, lost 3lb so far with giving up chocolate and booze in Lent. Am hoping to lose 7-10lb overall.

Oh Sweetie boooo re the BFN. Do you know how many dpo you are? Perhaps it was too early. Am brooking for you.

Olives! I am SHOCKED. But I'm glad you had a fun night!

Maybe sorry you are still poorly. I hope that doctor can help you.

Imps glad you feel better and your OH is lovely to do that for you! You must only have a few more weeks at horrid work left now.

Bartlet I would be for a stats thread too - I remember who everyone is now, but not where we all are in our cycles!

Sparks rat smacking season is back this weekend for the Generics too!

Yeah, how are you Far? I think about you every day.

Stats thread here

Hello girls sorry for going missing, I dreamt about you all last night!!

I had a terrible night as kept on losing more brown stuff, then one wipe of red and thought that is it, its over. Cried, accepted it was over and then today - nothing and 3rd hcg level of 1989 so going up still!! Doc was reassusing and said it can be caused by implantation, an irritable cervix, a nicked blood vessle etc I know it could still go wrong but its hanging on in there!!

Am off on hols this week, so hopefully that will prove a nice distraction and not long to wait before a 6 week scan!

Good luck with all the sexing and I hope to see lots of BFPs when I return!!

Oh far you're really going through the mill aren't you? Fwiw I understand loads of people have bleeds and go on to have perfectly normal pregnancies

I have read back through, but have read so much my mind has gone blank. I can remember that I'm really glad far's hcg is still going up. Hope the spotting is gone for good. Take care of yourself and I hope your holiday helps the weeks fly by.

And bartlett, I'm so pleased you've joined us again. Can't wait for us to get back on the psepp thread

Sending love and brooking vibes to the rest of you, looking forward to catching up with you all.

We've had a very lovely and knackering week. Af departed on Weds, so managed to get in the first bit of swi since the mc last night. I've done my first few cbfm sticks too now (CD8). I'm going to be ridiculously excited when it gives me a high I think!

Off to put my stats on the new thread and check out pommes exciting news on the grads thread...

Far I completely forgot to say earlier, I am so so pleased the HCG is going up. I am brooking for you every day.

Little glad you had a good time

Will update stats thread soon Imps

Have laryngitis and conjunctivitis. Feeling very sorry for myself. Will return with renewed positivity when I no longer look like snake eyes

Good morning everyone,

I've been up since 06:00 peeing on sticks! Still BFN and no AF, am getting very fed up. It's my works closing party tonight so would like a drink if the witch is on here way.

Little hope your not too sore from all the bike riding. Last time I went to centre parcs I needed a holiday afterwards to recover!

Far how are you this morning? It's so good that the HCG is still rising. Where are you off on holiday?

Bean well done on finishing your book

Stasi how are you doing? Is your RSI any better?

Poor Maybe you really don't sound well. Hope your taking it easy and getting lots of TLC.

Olives just reading what you had to drink gave me a sympathy hangover. Hope you survived the night shift

Yikes I've forgotten what else is happening. I only use mn on my phone as my laptop is broken so it's very difficult to remember everything when I'm replying. I may have to start taking notes

Hello to Imps, Sweetie Beedle, Bartlet, Scarlett,Duke, Froot and Sparkle hope everyone is having a lovely weekend.

Btw I like the sound of a stats thread, I'm not sure how to copy and paste on my phone. Will one of you lovely brookers please add me in if I put my details on?

Morning all, well I should be ov this weekend and got a +ve opk tjis mirning so after SKs go back to their mothers later today we will mostly be SWIing hmmm all weekend

Did anyone see Florence Welchs Brits dress in heat magazine this week? They described it as big fallopian tube

Haha excuse seeming dutch in my post, clearly I meant this morning.

I think it's the lack of alcohol lol

Afternoon all. I'm reading and posting from my phone, and will be for a while. Went to doctors on Friday and was told to take two weeks sick leave. So I'm home but banned from the computer. Looking forward to getting stuff done though, we still have boxes that have moved house, ready packed, twice now. The last move being over 3 years ago!

I'm in the 2ww, with no symptoms. Do have a back ache, bit not sure I can attribute it to early pg. Though I have wondered...

I get so nervous about posting the wrong thing I'm too scared to name check! I think maybe is ill, and I hope you get better soon. Oh, and far got excellent hcg results? Or was that another thread? Ack!! I'm going to have to post more often so there is less to remember.

Hope everyone has a good weekend.

Far you poor thing, we are all really brooking for you but it must an emotional rollercoaster. Good news that the levels keep climbing. Hope you have a restful holibobs.

Stasi hope you are able to rest up between box unpacking. 2ww is a killer too, hope keeping busy helps take your mind off it.

Poor Maybe you are also going through the wringer at the moment with one illness after another. I am sure you DH will be looking after you, he always seems to do the most lovely things for you.

Sparkles weekend away planning sounds lovely, check out Ludlow if you are a bit of a foodie as they have great farmer markets and little foodie shops, plus a number of Mitchelin star restaurants.

Scarlett not expecting you to see this post as you will be, ahem, busy.

Cupcakes what day are you on? Still brooking you will get an agreeable pee stick, my theory is there is one out there for everyone it is just a case of finding yours, a bit like the right man/partner. ok I will shut up now

Little hope saddle soreness clears up for SWI kicks in. at image in head of Little walking like John Wayne.

AF hasn't arrived here either. Am just counting down as feel she is lurking, but don't feel grumpy and PMTy like normal plus boobs still sore. Will POAS again on Monday if she hasn't arrived.

Will fill in the stats thread now too, think it is a really good idea Barlett
