OMG maybe how do you know whims is having a boy? I didn't realise you could buy GSPS [gender specific pee sticks] Grin

Imps7 · 30/03/2012 09:17

Maybe are you using internet cheapies? 'Cos I understand that they're a bit tight on the amount of dye they use so some will only ever come up with faint lines - the dye must vary so some will be fainter than others.

Oh I am soooo excited about getting the opportunity to do two gymnastics routines today/this weekend? Nothing could make me happier than 2 BFP confirmations!!

Ooh, got to go for a sit down - Twin 1 (Mince) has been kicking me in the ribs all morning. Luckily Twin 2 (Pie) is better behaved.

BeedleTheBard · 30/03/2012 09:18

and is whims going to join in with the twins theme and buy and extra boy for half price? :o

Imps7 · 30/03/2012 09:19

Oh, re: OBEM - loved it this week. The look on the twins' dad's face when his babies were born was beyond magical.

GenericDietCola · 30/03/2012 09:20

Ooh Imps, Olives and Whim are all preggo with twins. Can I have twins too please? I love all the Christmas twin names, especially Mince and Pie - they work for any combination of genders too. Although I am brooking for one of each.

Maybe I agree re the ICs - you need to break out a posho test in a day or two. Same goes for you Whim.

GenericDietCola · 30/03/2012 09:21

Ooh not seen OBEM yet, got it on the Sky box to watch at weekend.

NoMaybeAboutIt · 30/03/2012 09:25

Ah, it's a gift ladies, some of us have it, some of us don't Grin

You are right Generic Poshos will be coming out soon (as long as AF stays away)

Imps you really should take a load off your feet. Allow me to bake you a cake. You are eating for 3 now.

ScarlettInSpace · 30/03/2012 09:27

I am going to Jezza on in the background this morning I think, whatever curve balls life throws at me JK alwasy makes me feel like my life isn;t that bad after all Grin

And I should get some inspriation for interesting baby names for us all too!

Imps7 · 30/03/2012 09:41

Grrr OH has vetoed Mince and Pie, but we've agreed on Stocking and Filla instead.

Oooh, cake - yes please Maybe! Perhaps you'd better do 2 - I have the appetite of several horses these days.

ScrambledSmegs · 30/03/2012 09:51

Morning everyone! Good lord, so much since I last posted, don't think I can keep up.

whims and maybe, I am convinced that your pee sticks are faulty. It's the only possible explanation!

Imps twins eh?! Goodness me, how clever of you to have two at once Grin Wish I'd thought of that! Just avoid the names Chocolate and Log, please (don't remember who suggested that!), it makes me think both of the Log Lady from Twin Peaks and, err... well, it's toilet related, sorry...

Beedle I'm sorry about AF. I think I've had a near miss too, AF was definitely more painful and heavier than normal. But you are blooming, welcome to day 1 of your pregnancy!

I've missed loads of people, but DD is on my lap being needy and refusing to let me type with 2 hands. Sorry, I'll try to come back during her nap.

McPopcornMouseNFries · 30/03/2012 09:55

Oh scarlett what a shock! But I agree with everyone else ? conception by IVF isn't a failure at all, in fact, getting a baby at the end of it (or via ironic BFP in the interim) makes it a downright success :)
Milly and Willy, bwah ha ha ha!

sparkle you do makes I larf :o Your DH sounds stellar! Hope you're feeling a bit chirpier today :)

whims FR are great ? I think tesco cheapies are the same strength as well but I'm not 100%? Google will know. (They worked for me 1 day post AF-due-date, but I did have to go and brush my teeth etc while the line got it's act together.)

maybe you tease! When are you officially late?

We have a lot of twins in our family, including my twin brothers (who were an accident that Mum had when she was 18 - can you imagine! Shock ) but luckily the scan showed a single dragon baby :o

farfallarocks · 30/03/2012 09:59

I think FR are the bestest by far, internet cheapies are very very unreliable in my experience.

ScrambledSmegs · 30/03/2012 10:15

Scarlett I just scrolled back and saw your news. It must have been such a shock for you. But please look on the positive side - your consultant sounds really good, and you're pretty much guaranteed a baby now :) Whether by IVF, or by ironic post-referral BFP! And at least your IVF treatment will be on the NHS!

Just as an aside, I'm on CD22, either 11 or 12 DPO! I normally get to about 9DPO when AF turns up, so I'm really pleased, although a 23 day cycle is quite normal for me. The only thing is, I'm supposed to be going on a boozy night out tomorrow, so if AF doesn't turn up today or overnight, do you think I should POAS? Just so I can binge drink to my heart's content, y'see.

Imps7 · 30/03/2012 10:27

Smegs - you know you don't have to ask if you should POAS!! What a ridiculous question!!

Okay, so today's game is Which Smacketeer Said That? I've taken a quote from one of the previous rat smacking threads, and you have to guess who said it. If you think it's you, you can say so!

First quote:

omg, i just pressed send on my post and my boobs both started to ache.

So....Which Smacketeer Said That?

ScrambledSmegs · 30/03/2012 10:32

Blush Sorry Imps. I've just never been in this situation before. I've only got FRER's as well, so it feels like a Big Deal to waste them on confirming I'm not updiffed, IYKWIM.

Current rat smacker or graduate? Err... maybe?

Imps7 · 30/03/2012 10:36

Hmmm, any chance you can nip out to get some Poundland/Superdrug cheapies??? 2/3 days past your normal LP is extremely exciting...eeeekk!!!

Imps7 · 30/03/2012 10:37

Oh, current Smacketeer....not Maybe, no....

whimsicalname · 30/03/2012 10:52

Right you lot, I'm back

beangrower · 30/03/2012 10:58

Can't resist this game Imps. I'm guessing it's a Pop quote.

Imps7 · 30/03/2012 11:00

GO PEE WHIMS!!!

Hello Bean lovely to see you! You;ve got your HSG on Monday haven't you?? Best of luck with that one lovely!

Not Pops...

ScrambledSmegs · 30/03/2012 11:01

whimsical, have you got a POSH stick then?!

SweetieDoesIt · 30/03/2012 11:03

Smegs and Whims PEE ON A STICK

whimsicalname · 30/03/2012 11:04

I have peed

I have wrestled expensive stick from toddler

Shall I leave you hanging on a bit longer?

beangrower · 30/03/2012 11:05

Seems like I arrived in the room at the perfect time Whims. Thanks Imps had to postpone as AF is due that very day. No worries tho. Am uber relaxed. Giving you all a massive brook. X

Imps7 · 30/03/2012 11:06

It's a BFP isn't it?? PLEEEEASE say it's a BFP!!!!
