The Rat Smacketeers will all get BFP's this month and we are Brooking No Argument!

[TheLittleFriend]

See a Rat. Smack it.

Scarlett I too know what you mean with the failuritis. But you are not a failure, not in the slightest.

Maybe wet rooms are not conducive to agreeable pee sticks?

I have just bawled my eyes out. I think maybe I needed it. I piacc earlier. Pretty much a bfn. I think I will be writing a letter to internet cheapie headquarters

Oh, and Olives I want a ride in your horse and carriage

sorry about the bfn maybe. I think we both need some better sticks. I keep getting bfns, but then slight shadows when i look later. Obviously you're not meant to look later.

I think I'm up to cd34 which is nearly a record (and 10 days later than last month). Have one more cheapie which I'm going to have a wee on tomorrow with fmu. In the upstairs bathroom, next to my bedroom, not the wet room. I will piapitub (pee in a pot in the upstairs bathroom). Upstairs and bathroom were both spellings my eldest had the other week. Compound words you know. they have to write sentences with the words in. Imagine if that was his!

Then I'm going to hot foot it to an expensive shop to get some reassuringly expensive sticks, which have a guarantee of a pregnancy included.

Night night all, and thanks for helping me pass the time on a long day of pant and stick checking.

I'm choosing not to worry about Maybe, Beedle and Whims yet. If the BFP is just getting going, checking it later in the afternoon might be discouraging so I would only trust FMU. I will be Brooking until we have confirmation either way for you all.

Well deffo CD1 here today, though I did PIARIAW just to be sure (as you do) I'm not sure whether to consider this a near-miss, I guess I'll just wait and see what happens next month. I really do hope this isn't going to happen every month as I don't think I could cope with the stress. The good news is that Easter will be an ideal timw for SWI this cycle :)

whims and maybe I'm passing all the brooking power over to you, in the hope that your expensive tests show positive results :o

scarlett hope you're feeling a bit better about everything this morning

Thank goodness its nearly the weekend

Grrrr Beedle sorry that she got you. You are looking fab on Day 1 of your pregnancy though - properly blooming.

Maybe and Whims I'm waiting for news from you both...

Thanks, imps 1 day down only another 280 days to go :o

Also waiting for news from whims and maybe ...

Actually I meant to ask, for anyone who thinks they might have had a near-miss in the past was the bleeding heavier than usual?

Oh sorry to hear that Beedle but great news re the Easter shagging.

Bartlet I forgot to say earlier hurrah that your bleeding has stopped. Hope you are feeling better by the day.

Maybe and Whim what is up with these sticks? I hope they give you the right answer today.

Beedle, yes I think I've had a near miss in the past (well not really given that I've been pregnant the whole time) and the bleeding was a lot heavier. I also had some very strange spotting in the run up to AF.

Quite bizarrely, last night I had some ov pains and EWCM and both yesterday and this morning I have had - to put it bluntly - the proper horn. Given that I definitely did have a temp rise yesterday and EWCM had dried up during the day, I can only assume that last night's pains/EWCM was a second ovulation and I am now pregnant with twins.

this is going to make the next 38 weeks even harder than it has been already.

Congratulations imps , hope its boy/girl so you can call them mary and joseph :o

Or Little and Donkey

now you're not taking this seriously imps, you've only got 9 months to decide on their names you know

Or Misel and Toe?
Or Ruldolph and Prancer?
There are so many lovely Christmas combo names for your twins Imps!

Beedle Sorry to hear about CD1, but Easter hols is perfect timing for SWI When I had the CP at Christmas my period afterwards was no heavier than normal but was maybe a bit more painful.

Bartlet So glad to hear that your body is getting back on track, sounds like you may also be SWI over Easter as well

Maybe and Whims have to peed on a posh stick yet with FMU? I am still brooking hard for a double whammy BFP today!

have you not have to - sigh!

Meant to say did everyone see the twins on OBEM this week? How gorgeous, I think I shall have twins too, in fact it's decided, I am now 8 days pregnant with twins and finding the pregnancy remarkably easy so far

Oh Imps, I'm so glad you've decided to name one of the twins after me. Where does the other name, Donkey, come from though?

Maybe what is "pretty much a BFN"? does it mean there was still a shadow of a line? If it was afternoon pee then you've no reason to bawl my love. You're still totally in the running for a good strong BFP with FMU soon xx

whims any news from you this am?

Sorry about af beedle. We'll be due about the same time though

Morning all. Just nipping in whilst being clambered over.

piapitub this morning and have the same result, ie immediate test line followed after several minutes by a very faint shadow line.

I'm convinved the sticks are at fault, so I'm going to hot foot it straight to boots after school drop for a 2 pack. One for today, one for tomorrow with fmu.

Do we think first response are the most bestest?

Errrr Whims isn't that the way pee sticks are supposed to work? I.e. the preggo line doesn't come up straightaway unless you're several days after AF??

that sounds promising whims. I probably would splash out on some FR in that situation. Good luck, I'm brooking with everything I've got!!!

imps i kind of am several days post af. i assume a cycle length of 30days, and am now on 35. Last cycle was only 24, and the longest previous I think was 34. I'M a biT ALL OVer the place.

Aargh, toddler helping with typing.

Off to school n shops.

Back for a wee and news in a bit.

A good day to you all.

Good Morning smacketeers,

Thank you all for your comments yesterday, I was a floppy fish , I do feel a lot better today, I think it was just a shock that's all, and you are all completely right about being taken seriously and putting cogs in motion etc. And I will do a dance outside the consultant's office waving my aggreeable pee stick when I find one singing Ironic by that mard-arse Alanis Morissette. And I think he will actually be pleased to see me, he is a very nice man.

OH had another chat with me this morning, he pointed out that no-one has said we can't do it together naturally, just they can't definitively say we can so if I don't want to take 5 years trying [playing to my blatant impatience] we have to give nature a nudge that's all and to stop wallowing. He said the same as imps if anything else wasn't working properly I'd go get it fixed without a second thought. Men are so boringly pragmatic

Ooooh and the chances of getting twins from IVF are like about 30% lol

What about Cherry & Brandy for Crimbo twins names?
Or Flippin & Hardwork?

My friend's friend had twins called Milly & Willy poor kids they were little horrors too iirc

I luff having you lot to talk to about this shit everyone in RL would think I was bonkers

Go whims and maybe you've got about 40 hours left to confirm in March

sounds like a proper line to me whims (not that I've ever seen one, but still!) Looking forward to the confirmation on the FR

I've thought of a few more names for you imps
Holly & Ivy
Baubles & Tinsel
Santa & Claus

Morning all, sorry for the late update, DH came in off of nights, and woke me up at 6 with breakfast in bed then I nodded back off to sleep I have the day off today as it was my Dad's birthday yesterday so we are spending the day in London and going to Borough

And how bout Mulled and Wine Imps? Chocolate and Log?
