MrsBri do you eat 4 tins of tuna a week? mrspiggy Grin

peardrop2 · 16/12/2012 08:45

MrsBri you caught me Smile

Yeah I think the peanut thing is only if you and your husband have asthma or hayfever. I have bad hayfever so I've been trying but failing to stay away.

You can't have McDonald's milkshake for the same reason you can't have Mr Whippy. Bacteria can by chance build up in the machine and cause listeria which can make you sick and cause MC I think. Midwives are very anti so watch out for them if you forget Wink

Did not know about the chicken soup from a Chinese. Heard prawn crackers are a no no and mango chutney at the curry restaurant is a no no -oops had that last week-- Learnt that this week but can't remember why...probably because you don't know how long it's been around etc.

MrsBri · 16/12/2012 07:28

Apparently you can't have chicken and sweetcorn soup from the Chinese too. Fail for me as I found out after eating it! Oops.

MrsBri · 16/12/2012 07:26

And Mr Whippy ice cream, Peardrop! And I've been told 4 tins of tuna.

I'm eating peanuts though as I've read it's OK :-)

Booze, I didn't DTD on OV day, but did the 3 days prior and day after. Beforehand is apparently preferable anyway. And I got BFP, so get shagging!

And congrats Love :-)

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 16/12/2012 07:18

Why can't u have a mcdonalds milkshake??!!!! I actually love those am a bit curious!!

peardrop2 · 16/12/2012 02:49

Congratulations Love!

I'd like to help you broaden your BFN smug list Wink by adding medium rare steak, lots of wine, caffeine drinks (like coke, coffee and tea), salami, Parma ham, peanut butter, M&S raw beef sandwiches, mulled wine, brandy butter, tracker bars (generally anything containing or may contain peanuts), re-heated takeaways, prawns, raw tuna steak, tuna sandwiches (more then twice a week), shark (because everyone loves shark), egg and soldiers soft boiled, crab and finally a McDonald's milkshake Wink

LoveBeingAMrs · 15/12/2012 22:43

Blockette · 15/12/2012 20:38

LoveBeingAMrs · 15/12/2012 18:45

Thanks raspberrys & booze! :-) Testing again on monday to be sure sure!! :-) baby dust to you all! :-) :-)

Boozeandadietjinglebell · 15/12/2012 16:03

Yay! Congratulations. We've not had a BFP for a while have we?

I'm into my blue days on the app so trying to DtD more frequently. Also started the OPKs this morning, and conceive plus. Think I should ov on the 18th, which is the one night I'm away with work next week. Grrrr.

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 15/12/2012 13:47

Sounds like a BFP!! congratulations!!!! Xx

LoveBeingAMrs · 15/12/2012 10:18

So i took a test this morn (fmu) it came back with the faintest BFP, like theres defo a line but its sooooo sooo faint! Dunno how to post a pic for second opinion!! ..Could it really be?? x x

Blockette · 11/12/2012 12:34

ahh booze you're the day before me!

I guess I could, if I get really bad symptoms and am going crazy - but if I got a negative I wouldn't fully believe it, so would waste another test a few days later, so unless I'm really convinced then there is no point really.

Fx'ed for new year +ve's all around!

fl0b0t · 11/12/2012 10:25

raspberry that's crappy, but yes, enjoy wine and cheese for me as I'm desperately avoiding with 4 parties to go to this weekend! It's going to be damn impossivle.

Booze can you wait until you get to america? I will POAS when I get to my christmas destination as I want to be with my DH when I do it!

Boozeandadietjinglebell · 11/12/2012 10:18

Raspberrys I'm sorry. Buy a bottle of wine at lunchtime and sit and drink it and be smug later, maybe with some nice pâté and gooey cheese. It might help a little bit...

Fl0 definitely mention it, you never know...

I could technically POAS in 2012 - AF due on 1/1/13, but will be in America and I go on Boxing Day, so probably a little bit too early before I go. Will see how SS goes I think.

Blockette · 11/12/2012 09:45

ohh Raspberrys I'm so sorry :( but you can enjoy yourself over Christmas now, without having to hide the fact you're not drinking ;) - here have a mince pie, and a small mountain of chocolate :( - Here's too 2013! Xmas Grin

Well Fl0 I think you're our last 2012 hope. If you think that last AF was really light, you could always POAS ;)

  • Good luck with your appointment! Hope those boobs stay tender! Xmas Wink
fl0b0t · 11/12/2012 09:15

Haha, I've never had so much attention on my boobs.... well there was this one time.... haha!

Still mighty tender all around the sides, but no other symptons at all. I am going to thee dr this morning for something else and might mention it.

Got me all paranoid reading mumsnet stuff in the bath the other night as I didn't realise that you still can have a light period if you're pregnant. I tested a bit early last month, got a negative and then had a very light period.... ? :-S

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 11/12/2012 09:11

Well, I'm out.

That fucking bitch I'm not bitter I promise AF arrived in the middle of the night. That'll teach me for getting my hopes up Sad holding it together for now till I get home & then I'll cry

How's ur boobs flo??!!

Blockette · 10/12/2012 20:44

Any news Raspberrys? Anyone else got anything exciting happening?

So far the thread is still focusing on Fl0's boobs! Xmas Grin

fl0b0t · 09/12/2012 22:10

Cheers all, seems so early to be pms but my cycle isn't totally regular.... Fx here too for raspberrys too!

Boozeandadietjinglebell · 09/12/2012 21:23

Ooh Fl0 definitely sounds promising. You get 1,000 TTC SS points for sore boobs that far out from AF. Yay! (Fx)

Blockette · 09/12/2012 21:17

Ohh that sounds interesting fl0b0t! Fx!!!

fl0b0t · 09/12/2012 17:26

Erg- not due for 10 days and have officially the sorest boobs in the history of the world possibly exaggerating, and felt really ropey this morning and couldn't face my cup of tea. Great, phantom preg symptoms to raise my hopes! Confused

Blockette · 08/12/2012 19:58

Ohh Raspberrys I'm sorry :( but it's not over till AF visits! :) maybe your BFP is just shy ;)

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 08/12/2012 13:53

Hi booze

It's day 30, AF has been appearing anywhere from day 30 to day 34. I won't poas until day 35 now.

Another waiting game Xmas Hmm but I've already driven myself mad so a few more days of being a TTC nutjob won't do anymore harm!! Xmas Grin
