Why do we have to call it BFP and BFN it sounds so ...well infantile!

We are grown women. Mumsnetters need to rise above these things.

What's wrong with Positive Pregancy Test?

Seriously ,surely you can only find them interesting when you are at that point in your life.
I have a rule never to get involved as you always think you are, and think you have all the symptoms and then you find out you are not and look like a right bannana having expressed everything out aloud.

MamaGabriellaMontez · 21/09/2007 11:18

come on thenj NAO, I think you need some distraction...

DarrellRivers · 21/09/2007 11:18

MamaMaiasaura · 21/09/2007 11:19

I did the whole am I arent I cos the tests were neg, was on fertility treatment and taken provera to induce AF and all the time I was ...

Why you trying to keep occupied notanotter?

lilibet · 21/09/2007 11:20

On the same lines I really hate BD'ing and AF

Why can't we say sex and period?

goingfor3 · 21/09/2007 11:20
