If you're a WIIT and you know it, post in here!

[AmandaCooper]

Welcome to another thread everybody, George and Jake are standing by to do our bidding and have pina coladas for the waiters and sick buckets for the upduffed!

For anyone who is wondering "what the blazers is a WIIT?", the back story is that we all waited to ttc together for a long time and we are now variously still waiting, actively trying or upduffed.

Old thread here"

Er hang on, was it supposed to be "WAIIT"?

just marking my place, (spreads scent around jake and george)

Oy don't go over exciting the Gruffalo with all that scenting!

hello all!

runns? running too fast to type

haha just made me laugh at loud, what happened to the new recruits did they get the sack

Oooh shiny new post! [polishes pina colada glass to match shininess]

Has anyone fed the Gruffalo yet tonight?

Bookmarking, back later x

Stepping aside from the pina colada drinking for a second... does anyone know if extreme thirst and constant dry mouth is a pg symptom? Or is it just because I've been talking a heck of a lot more since term began?!

No idea! Have you not checked that mad website with all the obscure symptoms? I insist that you do so immediately!

I'm afraid the Gruffalo cannot be fed until everyone has confirmed that their DP has behaved himself adequately all day and does not need snarling at. He has had some Jammy Dodgers to "put him on".

Strawberrypie that made me laugh as well in the middle of the street!

Hi everyone, glad to see that George and Jake and the Gruffalo have made it to the new thread :)

bebe exciting news about the possible cake business! I'm feeling good thanks, still feels a bit strange but is sinking in now and I'm actually starting to believe that I'm actually pg.

Amanda Do you have pics of the kitten?! DH and I were talking about getting one, but we haven't got round to it yet. Now I think it'll wait till after the baby is here. DH has behaved himself today but is going out for curry tonight and leaving me home alone, so I'm not sure if that deserves a little bit of snarling.

nannyl sorry to hear you're sick enough to be off work :( Hope that having a restful week will help though - I know that I definitely felt a lot better at the weekends with nothing particular to do.

Hi mrs :) Good to see you back! Another 1st time pg, this thread is definitely lucky for that. I'm just a few weeks behind you, am 16 weeks tomorrow.

strawberry sorry about the BFN, but hopefully it's just that you're testing a bit early and it'll be good news later in the week.

mrssatsuma I'm definitely more thirsty now, and am drinking a lot more water. Not sure if it's a pg symptom though.

I'm currently debating whether to find out the gender or not. DH doesn't want to, but I do. We have a few weeks to decide, but we were discussing it yesterday and I don't think either of us wants to budge!

squirral- maybe u cud get the person scanning u to put it in an envelope, so that DP doesnt know and then u cud look IF u end up really wanting to find out

Hello ladies.

I will post more in here tomorrow or the next day, varying from feeling really nauseous and sick, to dizzy, to crying uncontrollably. Have also been signed off work for a week with morning sickness, so nanny I really feel for you.

Glad we have the new thread, settles down in here for a while :) And I'm glad it stayed as WIIT as opposed to WAIIT, much as WAIIT is also cool, it might be mistaken for people waiting to try.

I'll catch up soon, I know I keep saying this. Not great this evening, my tea lasted all of 10 mins, hoping I can keep some crumble down, which is just about to come out of the oven.

Oh sweetheart, that sounds bad. I'm starting to think I should be more scared of pg than I am, everyone is poorly. Sorry to hear you've been upset.

Were you crying because I forgot to credit you with the thread title? (lol) I could have sworn I'd typed "credit to 100years for the thread title".

Nannyl you too, I'm sorry it's not been an easy ride so far. I hope you feel better soon.

DH is in love with the kitten, he is constantly looking after him and keeps banging on about litter trays and special bowls and what food he likes best and stuff. I'll put a picture up!

Our poor ill fellow passengers! Really hope it passes soon. Just keep going and think how amazing it'll be at the end of it all :)

AC how exciting about the kitten! That's a lovely idea.

I also like the name - it's very WIITty!!! (groan...) :o

jbells I'd definitely look, and then wouldn't be able to keep the secret! I think we both have to know, or neither.

100years I hope you start to feel better soon too :(

Amanda the kitten looks very cute :) And obviously knows where to sit to get the most attention!

I can't take credit for that, MrsSatsuma, the thread title was 100years' idea.

Just kicked off the other waiting to ttc thread, which is odd. I have to remind myself there is no Jake or George or Gruffalo or calorie free cakes, and that it's not a train!

Also I found it hard to explain why we're still waiting. tbh I'm not entirely sure why we are!

I am exhausted, really busy day. I'm sorry in advance for the lack of personals, I'm super tired & my head hurts!

AC thanks for the shiney new thread, will pop over to the waiting one & set up camp for the forseeable!
Your kitten is adorable, does he have a name?

Sorry people are feeling poorly! :(

Mrs - How was CBT?

The Gruffalo can have a snarl at my DH & a nice evening snack of my ginger cat who has been very spiteful, jealous & naughty this evening!

Bebe his name is Harvey, but we've just called him little catty so far - you can tell we don't have children!

That is SO cute, really suits him! Such a bundle of cute fluffiness!

DHs dad rang out home phone before 7 this morning. I hate it when he does that as it always wakes me up. Then I led there panicking that DH had forgotten to put the recycling out & they come really early. So threw a cardi on, raced downstairs & he has already done it!

I've had a bit of an epiphany (sp?) re DH. I definitely think it's a phsycological issue about not wanting to TTC. Stress is a factor but just seeing what his workload is like yesterday & how it is increasing, I can totally see why he doesn't want to 'add to it' with a baby. Trouble is, there is no end in sight on that front. :( I don't think he feels like he spends enough time with DD as it is, would be worse for him with 2 kids that he hardly sees. But I still have the issue of my health, & I can't wait for ever. I'm not asking for the 5 kids he wanted, just 2! Really need to tackle this, just not sure how!

Sorry that Nannyl & 100 have been signed off sick. I was signed off from 7 weeks to 16 weeks PG. Then went back for a week, then got signed off for 3 more weeks! Was miserable & I was bored sh*tless! Hope you feel better after some r&r & that you both manage to eat what you fancy when you can

Squirrel - I think you're right when you say you both have to know the same thing. I wouldn't have been able to keep it from DH, it would have come out somehow, even accidentally. I know people think it ruins the surprise, but it's still a surprise finding out at the scan (and they aren't always right, hence why we bought nothing pink...just in case). I think you probably both need to think about why it's important for you to find out/keep it a secret. My DH said it was my decision (although he didn't really want to know) & I needed to know to help me prepare. Think the tides are turning a bit on this, more and more people we know are keeping the gender a surprise. Maybe you could find out just for yourselves & not tell anyone else, although you run the risk of it slipping out!

Right, need to energise myself, nice bowl of porrige I think! :) Hope everyone has a lovely day, I'm off to toddlers with DD! Yay

good morning

sorry im going to moan. Im feeling so so so poorly
yesturday i thought dr was a bit extreme signing me off, but thank god she did, there is no way i could have made it in today.

Was really sick yesturday afternoon / evening and i dont think anything at solid / liquid actually remained in me at all.

despite being in bed most of the night i slept like a log all night, but woke up at 7am and i didnt even need a wee.... not really surprising as id emptied my stomach completley (again) at 11.15 last night.
OH thought i was over reacting /being sick on purpose but i was most certainly not.

i have spent the last 2 hours having the teeny tiniest sips of water, and over the past hour in micro-nibbles have eaten nearly 1/4 of a piece of toast.

still feeling really poorly and not sure if these will remain in me for long.

was supposed to drop my sick note into school today, but not sure ill even have enough energy to make it down stairs.

sorry to rant, i just hate feeling so ill.

100 so sorry you are signed off too. Its horrid isnt it. hope you feel better soon.

i mean despite being in bed most of the day
