Don't stop us now! We're having such a good time, we're having a ball and BROOKING NO ARGUMENT!

[QueenMolotov]

You can't beat a Freddie Mercury-themed title to get a new thread going

Car not worth fixing so now we have to buy a new one. Gah. Dh wants to buy a bigger one, I think that's jinxing things. Oh why am I such an idiot?!

Oh no Keep!! What a mare. Those pesky bollards.

You'd probably need a bigger one even if it were just the three of you so you can't jinx anything as you'd no doubt upsize eventually in any event.

How are the rest of you lovely Brookers? Am 5dpo here and my fingers are getting itchy around the peesticks.

I have marginally achey boobs. As far as I know, the Law of Boobs does not cover this situation. Does this mean I'm diffed or not?

Oh no keep what does MrKeep mean by bigger? Have you got a teeny tiny car at the moment, or does he just want something bigger?

imps not sure why the law of boob wouldn't apply!

Nothing much to report here, MrB is OK with the idea of Another fresh cycle, so I had better start feeding him vitamins again!

Well the Law of Boobs only talks about boobs being sore or not sore - it is silent on "marginally achey". Although of course! "marginally achey" falls within the "not sore" definition doesn't it? Woo hoo, I am clearly diffed without any question.

I'd say marginally achey could also be considered as sore, so you're covered either way :o Congratulations!

How are the boobs today imps? Have you started testing yet ?

I would still describe the boobage as "marginally achey" Beedles, perhaps with a hint of sensitivity around the nipular area.

Had some strong cramping overnight and this morning. Fingers tightly crossed that this doesn't turn into something that fucks up our IVF plans again.

Am only 6 DPO - am I testing already??! Ha ha ha ha of course not!!!!

Well my fingers are crossed that it does fuck up the ivf plans, and sticks around!! 6dpo is early even for imps and loopy!

Any ov stick news beedle?

We had a clio, so quite small. I know nothing about cars but am shocked at the prices of second hand even. Gah

Oh no Keep. Am not sure I can offer any pearls of wisdom about car purchasing.

Yes, what eggstick news Beedles?

Crampyness sounds promising imps

keep I know nothing about cars so I really can't help!

No interesting eggstick news they are still O not I'm expecting the smiley face on Friday or Saturday, which will probably mean a scan around Wednesday and ET at the end of next week

That seems to have come around fast beedle, time is glacial for me right now...

I'm sure it is keep have you got your scan next week?

Yes, Friday x

It's good that your body has snapped back into ovulation mode so quickly Beedles. Small comfort though really.

What egg news from you Loopy?

Keep have you considered leasing a car Keep? A colleague at work did it for years and thought it was great. I don't know how it works but maybe something to look into?

yes hopefully my body is only 2 or 3 Days behind Schedule! I'm not entirely sure what they want to check for at the next scan. Lining thickness, that I have actually ovulated?

That must seem ages away keep!

All ok here, took the last of my clomid for this cycle today, so cd6 today. I've no idea if this cycle will be the same length as the last one, I ovulated on cd 19/20 last month (it happened between going to bed and waking up so not sure which day it was on lol) and it was 34 days long. So I might be ovulating around 23/24th.

Fingers crossed for you beedles.

And Imps, step away from the tests! You are implanting today, takes 3 days at least for hcg to appear in urine from then lol.

BUT I LOVE PEEING ON STICKS

Best to get a baseline bfn to work up from imps

When will you have scans loopy?

You're absolutely right Keep. It's useful for science to see the line develop gradually over the course of a number of hours days.

fingers crossed for this cycle loopy

how are the sticks this morning imps?

My ov sticks are still O hopefully my follicle has grown to about 17mm by now so I should get a big smiley face soon. My excitement for today is a mammogram. through googling I realised today that rountine screening doesn't start until much later in England, which is probably why I struggled to find information about routine screenng in pregnancy, not a problem now but something I did worry about when the letter came a few weeks ago

I just need to remember that I need to be naked from the waist up not the waist down. It will be so strange to see a dr and them not want to look up my foof :o

Strip completely Beedles and tell them you are a naturist

:o its a bit too Cold for that pasta

Wimp. I thought all Scandis went round naked constantly. You are marking yourself out as the furriner by wearing clothes :o

Blimey, yes I can imagine how easy it would be just to automatically strip your pants off at the first sight of a medical person. Just a quick question, do all of you take your socks off for fanjocam appointments? I assume you do, but am interested to know.

Not wanting to put you off your breakfast but I think the cramps I had yesterday were bowel-related - I was Squitty McSquitterson last night. Much better this morning though.
