Oh Olives that is wonderful news! So happy for you! I burst into tears at my 8 week scan too, just to see that little bean with a heartbeat! Wonderful.

Geek the hope in the 2ww is lovely, so enjoy it.

Solars you are pregnant. The CD said so!

Boo get some tent-loving!

Maybe can I have some cake too please?

Sparks get bonking!

Hope everyone is well, especially the other tripe whammiers, Bartlet and Little. I'm sure you will be lurking and I think it's Little's scan next week, so I hope all is well.

I will be making some family announcements this weekend - eek! Then got to tell work next week. Am in no rush really, but I would like to tell work so they don't just think I'm getting fat! Well I am getting fat, but there is also another reason! Happy weekend y'all.

Geeklette · 06/07/2012 13:42

olives that's fantastic news, well done! You must be so over the moon. I'd have been surprised if you and DH hadn't have shed a tear to be honest, that is such a wonderful thing to see/hear. So, you are now a fully graduated HBEPP (heart beat endorsed pregnant person)!!

Princesslovelyboo · 06/07/2012 13:58

Aah Olives that is fabulous news!

Mr boo is a bit Hmm about women on the t'interweb telling him he must get jiggy under canvas Grin

Geek I love the hope in the 2ww, I have planned out a whole pregnancy before now. How I will tell Mr boo, when we will tell family, who to tell first, as well as working out the due date [crazy lady emoticon] :)

well not much else to report from boo towers, waiting to hear from DS1 so I know he is having a good time on his trip and getting ready for a spin class later. Tis raining really hard here :(

whimsicalname · 06/07/2012 14:03

Hello everyone. I'm hiding sheltering from another deluge, although fortunately it held off yesterday for a family outing to legoland, and today for my biggest boy's school trip to the woods.

Great news about the scan green. Anyone got anything planned for the weekend? It's my middle boy's birthday tomorrow, so (on his request) we're going for a pub lunch. Normally that goes with a hearty walk, but perhaps not tomorrow! Sunday it's our leaving party, so fingers crossed for good weather for us! Have a good one everyone.

Solars · 06/07/2012 14:05

Lovely news Olives that is fantastic to hear!

Maybe I had my 4th acu session yesterday. Are you also having your cranial treatment again too?

I hope so Gen hope you're doing well. DH wanted to borrow my cd but she talks about fsh, lh levels and your uterous etc so I told him it wouldn't be appropriate for him although it could potentially double our chances if he could became pregnant Have a lovely weekend too, and enjoy spreading your news!

From one crazy lady to another Boo I also fantasise about those things!

GenericDietCola · 06/07/2012 16:14

Boo and Solars, enjoy the dreaming because one day you will gte your BFP and you'll have to make all those decisions!

Solars I love the idea that your DH might get preggo! Lend him the CD just to see what happens!

Whim wow so are you moving imminently? Enjoy birthday celebrations and leaving party!

Solars · 06/07/2012 17:01

Gen that's just reminded of that's Friends episode where Chandler is listening to a CD to help him stop smoking but it's aimed at women Grin thinking about it probably wouldn't do DH any harm having a few female qualities, I may just lend it to him Grin Grin

Sounds like you have a busy weekend Whims enjoy!

We are at my brothers on Saturday for his birthday and then hopefully out to see the olympic torch on Sunday!

Have a good weekend everyone x

FluffyJawsOfDoom · 06/07/2012 17:02

Shock Leaving party already whims! Have you planned how you're announcing your pregnancy? :)

Massive yay Olives :) :)

FluffyJawsOfDoom · 06/07/2012 17:05

Oh - I have a copy of the original PDF of 50 Shades from when it was fanfiction ("Master of the Universe" I think which I thought was a bit odd, coz that's, like, He-Man, right? Hmm ). I'm told it's almost identical, except it keeps the twilight names, i.e. Bella/Edward. If anyone would like it, PM me or FB me and I can email it to you :)

TheLittleFriend · 06/07/2012 19:13

So pleased to hear great scan news from gen & Olives

Hope everyone else is good too.

I've got a uti, which I'm a bit gutted about as i've been drinking cranberry juice by the shed load since my bfp. I had 2 when preg with dd so wanted to avoid it this time. So antibiotics for me.

My early scan is booked for 5.30 Tuesday, so brooking hard for that. I still feel like death warmed up though, which I hope is a good sign Smile

FluffyJawsOfDoom · 06/07/2012 19:24

Oh poo little :( I hope it clears up soon! Brooking hard for Tuesday :)

GenericDietCola · 06/07/2012 20:26

Solars I was thinking about that episode too - brilliant!

Fluff I am kind of curious but feel l ike I would be jumping on the bandwagon way too late, so I will decline! Plus I've got all the Game of Thrones books to read first.

Little glad but sorry you are feeling ill IYSWIM! Sorry re the UTI though, they are horrible. Brooking for Tuesday X

SweetieDoesIt · 06/07/2012 20:28

Hi ladies and happy Friday

Olives so pleased to hear about the fantastic scan results.

Sparks hope you have a lovely day tomorrow, your outfit looks amazing

Gen let us know how you get on sharing your news with the family.

Little brooking for Tuesday, glad you are feeling terrible, sort of

Solars Grin at your DH listening to the conception CD, I once caught my DH taking my folic acid Shock men they hate been left out

Maybe hope your accupuncture goes well, you may be getting result s already it is good stuff

I am still mentalling about the IVF situation, I have moved our nurse appointment back to give us a bit of breathing space. I still feel we haven't had all the info we need, does anyone know if we paid for a private appointment with one of the consultants, as we have only seen a registrar who rushed through stuff with no explaination so far, does this effect our NHS treatment? I would like a second opinion but it would have to be with one of the consultants at the clinic we are using for our NHS treatment. I woulD have to wait l after Christmas to see one of the consultants on the NHS and don't have the luxury of time.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend x

Solars · 06/07/2012 20:59

Will be brooking for on Tuesday Little and hope that uti clears up sharpish x

Lovely to see you Sweetie have been thinking of you. It must be so hard to get your head around the IVF especially if you feel 'unheard' and not given a good enough explanation why. Going for a private consultation shouldn't effect your NHS treatment. May be a good idea to ring the clinic and find out which one of the consultants has a private practice and if possible if you have your results take them with you. They may ask to repeat the tests otherwise, an extra cost however you should get the results quicker and be seen quicker and hopefully a better explanation of your options x

cartoonface · 06/07/2012 21:29

Really can't get back in the brooking spirit

SecretSparkle · 06/07/2012 23:22

Oh face you've been through so much, it's going to take a bit of time!! Don't worry we're all brooking for you, so there's no rush xxx

SecretSparkle · 08/07/2012 13:43

So quiet on here!!

Princesslovelyboo · 08/07/2012 14:00

I was letting you think you were a fred killer Sparks Grin

how's your weekend going?

SecretSparkle · 08/07/2012 14:23

I was getting a bit paranoid!! I'm nursing a bit of a hangover today!!

FluffyJawsOfDoom · 08/07/2012 14:49

:o Generic
I'm on book 4 of GoT (well part 2 of book 3 iyswim) and I was gutted to realise he's not written the last two books (6 & 7) yet Shock Angry so I'm going to be left hanging when I get to that point. I'd not mind, but he's not very good at wrapping books up, they're all cut off midflow iykwim so we'll be left without any kind of conclusion possible for several years! Shock

cartoonface · 08/07/2012 17:26

Thought everyone had moved threads cos of my lack of brooking.

Geeklette · 08/07/2012 18:34

sparks how was the wedding? Did everything go without a hitch?

boo brooking for your b'day baby, not long now Grin

fluff you've just ruined my life! Now I have to hope that he doesn't do a David Gemmell and drop dead in the middle of the last book in the series :(

Nothing to report here, all symptoms ceased as of yesterday, but that is pretty normal for me. I still feel about as un-diffed as I ever have in my life. AF is not due next Saturday and I'm in a bit of a quandry. It's my favourite beer festival next Saturday so do I drink or not if AF hasn't shown her face by midday? I'll no doubt about it probably have tested several times in the morning, but as we all know, a BFN = diffed!

How was everyone's weekend? What are you all having/had for tea? I'm starving and have cracked the whip on MrGeek to get the burgers in the oven nice and early. Cheese burgers, chips and fried onions, and all just 13 WW points Grin

Princesslovelyboo · 08/07/2012 19:33

Oh Geek I may need that recipe! We had sausage (Tesco half fat) and chips. Thanks for remembering, it is Thursday Mr boo is already under orders not to linger at his Sunday Piss up catch up with his mate as pant snot is telling me sex week has started!!

How is it going with the twunty new boss??

Has everyone else had a god weekend, I hope so, it was certainly quiet here to lots of rat smacking I presume Wink

FluffyJawsOfDoom · 08/07/2012 19:45

Geek I'd not thought of that! Shock Shock

Tbh I'd probably test then drink copiously if BFN even if it is a false BFN - you can't put your life on hold, it makes for a miserable existence imvho.

BeedleTheBard · 08/07/2012 20:06

olives Congratulations on your little bean with a heartbeat :o

whims hope the party went well, and it wasn't too sad saying goodbye to all your friends. Hope the weather was ok for you too.

geek we had sausages (barbecued) and they were lovely. Its almost impossible to buy proper meaty sausages here, but I've finally found some :o :o

cartoon don't worry about your lack of brooking, we'll still be here brooking for you.

We've been helping some friends move house today, I'm aching already, I probably won't be able to move tomorrow!

Waves to all
