isn't it annoying? vol.2

So the last thread disappeared so here's the deal: I realised it's really annoying to drive yourself mad wondering if you're pg during the 2ww. Newbies welcome!

Does uncontaminated include things like being spat out? Or does t just mean you can't, umm, syringe it out of yourself?

Does he have to go into the hospital to do it? Or can he do it at home and take it in?

Ahem. Provide a sample (not contaminated by me!) and hand it in. I think that's it!

What exactly does he have to do, Bex??

ninja I love frazzles but they tend to repeat on me so I've gone off them!
Seems I ovulated Sunday (according to.FF) so on the one hand Grr I wish we'd managed to do it Sunday night but on the other hand at least we did it Friday. Clearly I'm already pg!
Poor DH is not looking forward to today bless him!

Im not shaking my pom poms yet. Too tired haha.
I just ate almost an entire bag or haribo and dont feel bad in the slightest.

NinjaChipmunk · 31/05/2011 21:17

I shall wave my pom poms for you too! There must be something in this tiredness the two of you speak of.
I am craving some form of junk food but we don't seem to have any and I can't leave ds to run to the shops and dp is on a plane so won't be back for an age. Bugger, I really fancy some frazzles.

babycarmen · 31/05/2011 21:11

Wow, PG that has made my day! Haha :)
ninja i dont even remember the symptoms i had with Dd early on, but i do know my morning sickness didnt start until 12 weeks.. nightmare!

I am sooo tired, actually exhausted, putting it down to stress. 1 week and 1 day til af due.. not that im counting..

PatientGriselda · 31/05/2011 20:57

Hi babycarmen! Did you know that an iPhone autocorrects your name to "baby semen"? That has GOT to be a sign!

Bex, brilliant news about not yet having ewcm. Is your DH likely to be able to perform appropriately after his appointment, or will he need a day or two to sulk and recover from the indignity? No offence meant to him, I'm just going on how I can imagine my DP being...

NinjaChipmunk · 31/05/2011 20:56

Evening all!
PG sorry to hear you are so tired, hope you get a better night tonight. I'll join in with the pom pom waving if you like, I'm all for a bit of positive reinforcement!
Bex how are you? Good luck for the appt tomorrow, have you and dp made up yet? At least the swi can commence tomorrow.
Hello to babycarmen, I'm due af around 7th or 8th so totally with you on the 2ww, although 13 months into ttc #2 I've now decided I have no idea whatsoever might be a symptom! Thinking back to being pg with ds, I didn't actually have any symptoms except gagging when brushing teeth and one morning of nausea. I'm seriously lurching between thinking I have symptoms and thinking I have no symptoms at all. I need some serious distraction for the next week!

Hi babycarmen! [Ushers you in, park your feet, have a Brew ], sit on your hands!
I decided yesterday what I thought was ewcm probably wasn't. Temp has not peaked yet, may still be chance this month!
DH has his appt tomorrow. He is not happy bless him!

babycarmen · 31/05/2011 10:36

waves hii im new :) Af due 8th June and the 2ww is killllllling me (dramatic, i know)
TTc #2 month 3. :)
Getting slight cramping pain down there but who knows what that is, ive given up trying to figure out my body!

PatientGriselda · 31/05/2011 06:38

So tired this morning - I just couldn't sleep at all last night. And I overate again :-( I am so close to my target BMI, and I desperately want to get to it before my hospital appointment, but now I am actually scared to weigh myself for fear of seeing how far it has shot up. Why is it that I choose this moment to start troughing, when I've been so good for so long?!

When is your DP's appointment?

Enjoyed the bbq food I could have. Then Dh had usual row about ttc with him.feeling the pressure and me getting stressed. All blown over now, just very frustrating because in the end there was no bd and he shouldn't do it again now til after his appt. Rather annoying as I know have ewcm now! Angry
Ah well, we're in Luring having dropped off his Nan. Will be driving home in a bit.
Lasange sounds awesome pg! Hope you lay there going "urgh' at how full you were!

OP posts:
PatientGriselda · 29/05/2011 22:16

Ah no, that does sound sad! But, thinking positively, it's much better from a diet point of view to have grilled chicken or Lamb kebabs or something, and you can always have fun marinading things beforehand.

I ate more lasagne than I can possibly describe. And then ice cream. Now lying in bed feeling too fat for sex!

Nan is a legend, esp since DH is estranged from his Mum,.she's that motherly support he needs, she adores him!
Yeah my choices are limited cos I don't eat wheat! GF sausage, burger and rolls, not as much fun!

Wow all sounds very exciting!
Having a lovely weekend with Dh's nan. Just had a bbq with my sister, her Dh and Dnephew. Dnephew was very tired and went a bit loop. Had to calm.him down with pre-prepared In the night garden and 3rd & bird. Highly entertaining!
How cool in my nan-in-law, choosing what to watch on.tv, she picks Little Britain!

NinjaChipmunk · 29/05/2011 20:18

no never been before so other than looking at the bumpf that came with the ticket, I have no idea what to expect. Will let you know tomorrow! I'm nowhere near POAS, got another 8 or 9 days yet. Will try to keep myself occupied!

PatientGriselda · 29/05/2011 19:59

Oh I would LOVE to go to a county show! Do you go every year?

Am not up to much. Just cooked dinner with DP (mood = grumpy and resentful but making an effort) and now wandering around the garden admiring the flowers while some coffee brews. I think we'll be fine once we've slept on it! I think tomorrow is a day of outwardly doing DIY and inwardly wondering whether there's any point in POAS!

NinjaChipmunk · 29/05/2011 19:50

hello! pg sorry to hear about the row, that sucks. Can you at least chill out with a glass of something nice?
bex well done on the run, don't think I could do it!
well we've had a nice day here today and been to a sculpture park which was fab and just had dinner at a new pizza express which has opened near us and tomorrow we're off to see the surrey county show which I am expecting to be full of pigs, cows and nice food. Am quite looking forward to it!
At least its taking my mind of the 2ww!
whats everyone else up to?

PatientGriselda · 29/05/2011 18:24

That's brilliant! I'm so impressed. I haven't run since we moved to our new place about three years ago, basically because of the hurdle of finding a new route. Oh, and the hurdle of laziness, but we won't mention that! So well done for doing it.

Argument is the basically the same one as before, but played out on a new issue. I think we probably weren't really ready to make up, so both of us were still a bit huffy an resentful from last time, and therefore very ready to march straight back into battle at the slightest provocation!

What are you up to this evening?

Bexamundo · 29/05/2011 16:52

Did a run in the end, 1.2 miles! Nope, not very far but it's the first time I've done a run in a bout 3 years and the first time since we moved to this village, wasn't sure how far to go! Expended some energy though which is good Smile

Hmm no run as yet, walked hone from.church and done 2 hours gardening, that's cardio yes?! Bit bored tbh, more footie on tv, play off final! Maybe will go running....
What happened now? Rehash same argument (that's what we do!) Or something new?!

PatientGriselda · 29/05/2011 14:54

Impressive! Did you manage it??

Sadly DP and I are now locked in implacable hostility again.
