Hi girls, its my birthday today so been a bit of a busy one, got some lovely presents and just got back from a nice meal out with dh, we even went for a little walk along the river. Am shattered now so just having a cup of tea and off to bed.
Too- I will be thinking of you on Monday, it's my doppler scan then too so will be worried sick myself. You will be fine, I hope it's all over and done with quickly for you x
mel- yay for the bfp got everything crossed for you that this is a sticky one, are you going to have an early scan?
Good luck to those waiting to test, will be interesting to see who caves first!
Angel-glad you had a good day, not long till gils is here x
Sorry to anyone I have missed, I am ready for bed!

TooImmature2BDumbledore · 14/10/2011 19:32

Mel, hurray! The joy of convincing a CBD!

Angel, sorry you had to go through the scariness of a quiet GILS, but yay for a good trace two days running, and double yay for your lovely MW coming in specially!

Good luck with all the ovulation, swi and testing pacts, everyone!

Am fine at present - not too stressed at this moment. It has been v busy at work, which has helped - I actually woke up last night trying to work out something work-related in my sleep, rather than having bad dreams. I have that Friday feeling combined with the smugness of having actually finished everything I wanted to finish before going off. I am conscious that if something goes wrong then I won't be back at work for quite a while, so I thought I'd better leave everything in good shape. I spoke to my boss before going off to ask him if I was to record this as sick leave or special leave, and he hadn't realised it was next week. Doh! He is so infuriatingly clueless a lot of the time. It is also weird to be wished a happy holiday by all the people I haven't told - I just said I would be 'on leave', which isn't fibbing, so when I left today a number of them said 'have a nice holiday, enjoy yourself', and I was like um, yes, thank you. Surreal!

MelMal · 14/10/2011 14:15

That's the house all cleaned for my handbag party tonight. Just about to go and buy some party food. I must not spend a fortune on bags!!

Bluetinkerbell · 14/10/2011 10:40

janedoe25 · 14/10/2011 10:08

Deal green! I have everything crossed for us both! x
Im off now, got to sort out some things for the wedding.

greenzebra · 14/10/2011 10:05

Ok jane deal but if we need moral support to last I bit later then Im up for that to.

Just read your post angel thats really great, I would be made up if the midwives who looked after me were at my next, would really mean something to me. They were so wonderful.

janedoe25 · 14/10/2011 10:02

green I have made a pact with DF not to test until af is late! Il be in Cd 31 on the 29th. I may well crack and test with you ha!

greenzebra · 14/10/2011 10:01

everyones crap at testing pacts blue but it helps to know some one else is going through the same symptom spotting and panic.

greenzebra · 14/10/2011 09:58

jane cool, you want to do one then?

Bluetinkerbell · 14/10/2011 09:57

haha green you know I'm rubbish at testing pacts Grin
I just must be ov-ing soon or around this time, as my BMT has gone up, haven't done an ov-test the last 2 days but I will crack one later today! Wink

OP posts:
greenzebra · 14/10/2011 09:57

I shall be testing on the 29th, I was a bit late in ov. So 29th will be CD33.

janedoe25 · 14/10/2011 09:57

Oh green I think i OV yesterday too! I had ewcm and my usual spot breakout, but i done an opk which was neg, I have never had a positive ov test. I hope I am actually ovulating Confused.

greenzebra · 14/10/2011 09:52

blue I was just thinking the same think I ov'd yesterday. Maybe we will be testing around the same time (want to make a testing pact?)

CheeseandGherkins · 14/10/2011 09:46

Great news on the house blue

mel congrats :)

angel that's really lovely about your midwife coming in :) Must have had you so scared with the lack of movements. I also think that a variation on the norm is a worry so if you had movements all the time and then only 10 in a whole day it wouldn't be normal. Trust your instincts definitely, I wouldn't be happy with 10 in a whole day!

Hope all goes well over the weekend and I'll be thinking of you on Tuesday, looking forward to hearing good news :)

Bluetinkerbell · 14/10/2011 09:45

YAY for Mel congrats lovey! so pleased for you! Grin

Yay mel that is super fab news Grin huge congratulations Wine (its non alcoholic by the way Wink)
angel you really do sound so nervous, what a lovely midwife you have. We are all rooting for you.
green and blue the efforts I sometimes resorted to in order to get dh in the mood when ttc make me blush thinking about now Blush
too the weekend is almost here and the long wait for the amnio nearly over, sending hugs your was and very positive vibes

greenzebra · 14/10/2011 09:30

mel I am so happy for you, congratulations fx for a sticky little bean.

janedoe25 · 14/10/2011 09:25

mel huge congratulations! So happy for you and dh Grin Grin

MelMal · 14/10/2011 09:04

Clearblue says - Pregnant. 1-2 weeks!!!

greenzebra · 14/10/2011 08:13

blue I had the exact same thing with my DH now I tell him every month that Im fertile and also if im really horny it probably means Im really fertile too. Its alot easier now but still sometimes it feels like a chore for him, so I do have to turn it on, (who ever thought when we were younger that we would have to nearly beg men for sex!Grin)

AngelGeorgie · 14/10/2011 08:10

Thanks Jane xxx
blue yeh!!! Back in the game xxx
