What do we want? Positive pee sticks. When do we want them? NOW (and we are Brooking No Argument)

[whimsicalname]

The last couple of threads got lots of people pg. Let's hope this is another lucky one.

Evil AF has arrived. Bitch!!!!

Oh, Pip I'm sorry. Take heart though, this will be the last time she visits for a good long while!

Thanks stacks, I don't think I need any excuse to see Hot Doc again. If he takes my blood pressure again I'll be in trouble, he commented today on my face being a bit red! I muttered something about walking fast up the hill lies all lies. I'm alright on the nausea front today though, lets see if I can continue to manage it like this.

:( pip

:o smegs!
This morning I was in Tesco car park and the guy driving the car behind me looked like a cross between Adrien Brody and Robert Downey Jr, and once I'd stopped gawping my first thought was that I must tell the brookers :o

Oh Pip, I'm sorry. I agree though, it will be the last time she visits for a while.

Smegs glad to hear you are feeling a bit better, but phwoar to fitty GP

Fluff I am amazed you didn't crash into something! I love Robert DJ. Nom.

Is it home time yet? I'm fed up of this place. Roll on October

Glad you feel better Smeg and phwoaaar to the hot doc!

Sorry about AF Pip

What a cutie Otis is growing up to be Maybe

I have had such a manic day trying to chase people only to realise it was all futile as patient gave me misleading details, feel like I've wasted the day grrrrrr!

Off to make chocolate hazelnut cookies to cheer myself up now....

smegs at your hot GP, and I'm very pleased that you're feeling better/worse (however you want to look at it)

whims brillo pads? I'm confused

pip sorry about AF, hope you have better luck this month

Have we heard from imps about her new job?

Well I tried to persuade nag DP about getting the SA done but he's really feeling the pressure :( He's convinced that I think its all his fault I'm not pregnant. I've tried to explain that there's a 50% chance the problem is with me, but I don't think its getting through to him. And here they won't even do a blood test on me till he's delivered his sample. I'm not going to mention it again for a few weeks but I'm a bit scared that if we don't book the SA within a certain time they'll cancel our referral :( Anyone got any brilliant ideas how I deal with this??

But looking on the brightside I'm sitting in the sunshine outside my hotel room and its lovely - nicely sheltered from the wind or I'd be a bit cold :o

Beedle if you told him about how scared you are about the whole thing and the tests you have to go for, focusing on your feelings, do you think that may help?

thanks everyone...I'm actually feeling quite positive, and loving that I'm 1 day preggers!!! yay go me!!! haha!!! so....how do the OPK's work? And when do I start to think about using them? And what about SWI? When is best to start that/ xxx

Hi everyone

solars that sounds like good advice for beedle

Jealous of scrambled & fluffy's hottie spots!

Loving Otis pics maybe. Does he fall over when you drive round a corner though?

Wow, that is a quick appointment scarlet. I hope it all goes well for you x

Whim is getting the blame for the brillo pads. Twas me. Anyway - DS was a huge hit at the dentist's. He loved the chair and he loved showing the dentist his teeth. She's extremely beautiful (a la Solars) and DS fell for her instantly, the tart that he is. He even held the little mirror for her and politely gave it back when she asked. So confident.

Beedle - that sounds very hard. Does he understand that it could be neither - unexplained - or both of you, as well as being just one of you? Perhaps he is v scared of the implications if his SA is poor but if you could show him some info on it - eg lifestyle changes might be quite minor for improvements? Perhaps get him out of your home and take him somewhere lovely and then try to ask him questions about his concerns rather than tell him stuff.... I dunno; it's well hard. I'm astoundingly lucky that my DP is v measured about everything and will sit down and talk. Agree also that talking about what you are going through might help him empathise and be more cooperative. Good luck.

N'night all.

Evening all, popping in while DH watches footy

Have read through all the days posts, I can not get MN at work so can only post on an evening but I am brooking in spirit from my desk I promise you all.

tock loving the though of your doggie having a BF hope it works out in pups. I bet your DS is a right little charmer, bless him with the dentist.

Beedle hope you manage to talk DH around to provide his sample soon. It takes two to tango and you both need to make sure all is in working order I know you know all this

Scarlett hope all goes well at your appointment, you know where we are if you need any support, also there are other threads where the ladies are going through similar and am sure will be able answer any questions you have. Good luck my dear.

Pip sorry to hear AF has arrived, but that is the back of her now for fx 9 months

Was Olives having her lap & dye today? Hope she is ok, and not too sore.

Smegs glad you managed to get in to see Hot Doc, hmmmm loving the sound of him. Hope he has helped with your ms. How long until your scan?

to everyone else

:o sparkle they do nice homewares though? And I rather like Per Una :)

beedle that's really tough. I think I'd frame it in a positive light if that's possible i.e. we don't think there's anything wrong but it's a stepping stone to our referral; we won't be able to find out if it's me until you JIAJ; even in the unlikely event something's wrong, men's sperm issues are often easy to resolve through a healthier lifestyle etc etc, but we need to know if this is the case so we can address it.......... ?

Oh and the M&S food hall!!

Hello hello helllloooo!! What have I missed what have I missed???

Imps - Lordy it's been quiet without you!!!!! Gis your news asap!!!! Welcome back, woman.

Imps! You're back! How's the new job? Any exciting news?

Sparkle def go to the food hall. Nom

Beedle that's tough. I second Clicks advice (she always gives the best advice)

How are we all on this miserable morning?

Special AM style shag week disrupted by early waking toddler. If it's not one thing it's another. Still I'm not covinced I have the temp chart of a human women this month so no loss

waves to all

Yay imps is home.

How's the new job? You've been very good not MNing there. Give it time.

Bad luck purp. We hardly ever attempt a morning swi/sff. I remember an audience question on the Now Show where they asked what was the worst lie you ever heard. One of the answers was 'Your mother and I are just swapping places'. It's scarred me (and, obviously, the audience member)

Glad the dentist went well click. My boys love going too. I'm in today (again) I'm (whispers) having my teeth whitened. I'm not really one for beauty treatments, save the occasional leg wax, but I am a bit Austin Powers in the tooth dept. 2 hours it's going to take. 2 hours. and then no black coffee for ever at least a while.

sparks M and S have some lovely undies at the mo, although £50 won't actually go all that far. And anyway, there's no better way to get an ironic bfp than investing in new undies you won't be able to wear.

Morning fluff, sweetie, little, maybe, beedle, bartlet, stacks, sparks, solars, olives, smeg, scarlett, pip and anyone else I've forgotten.

I'm away for the weekend and then doing a presentation on Monday, so might be a bit thin on the ground. I feel like I need a MN 'out of office'.

secret great story re the guy in the NCT, considering my CM is rubbish in hiding I am obessed with all things pant snot and lack there of. In turn obsessed with shagging exactly just before ov due to assessment that lack of pant snot dictates this is the only way. I try and hold back but my OH hears way to much about this stuff. Perhaps that was him?!

Sparks brilliant!! My name isn't Lucy though sadly but at least I am beautiful in dreams!

Brilliant story about the NCT class

Purple we never have am shags other than at weekends due to DH's shift patterns. Oh to be young and do it whenever...

Whim I now have an amusing image in my head of you with Austin Power teeth Hope it goes ok.
