I was watching OBEM last night and crying my eyes out! I can't believe what a long wait it is and how much discomfort until you finally get your baby!! I'm already getting impatient!

I really hope I enjoy this pregnancy - so far I've just been so sick and worried!

Any chance if seeing some pics of our more pregnant ladies' current bumps? Ducky? Lulu?

Cupcake92 · 17/08/2014 10:18

Hi Kirsty! Good luck with a bfp!!
My cycles range any where from 28-35 days. They got messed up after the implant!

Lilla I know I was so big :( and yes I ended up have an emergency csection as DS was back to back and physically couldn't fit through that way. If he was the right way they said I'd have been able to.

KirstyLeigh87 · 17/08/2014 10:02

Thanks ladies!!! I'm not charting O with OPK's just yet, although I have a rough idea of when I do O but if this cycle is a write off then ill start from next cycle, don't chart temps either as I feel it's too complicated as I never usually get the same amount of sleep etc! X

lillamyy1 · 17/08/2014 09:54

Not skin awful hahah! Sound awful.

lillamyy1 · 17/08/2014 09:53

Ducky your mil does skin awful! I'd like one like yours too Bears!
Just had to leave the bedroom as sleeping DP's breath smells so strongly of garlic that it nearly made me puke! Might throw the rest if his houmous away before he wakes up...

lillamyy1 · 17/08/2014 09:44

Hi Kirsty! You'll like it here, everyone's so kind and supportive Smile I had similar length cycles, it's very annoying having that little bit longer to wait. Are you charting ov?
Cupcake, you were biiig! Did you have a c sec in the end? I'm only 5'2" and put on weight easily as well so am expecting to turn into a big ball! DP is over 6' so I hope the baby isn't a giant!

iamdivergent · 17/08/2014 09:39

Hi kirsty of course you can Smile welcome and fx for your bfp Thanks

Hey ladies! I was wondering if I can join? DH and I started TTC in April too and have only just found out about this page! Grin Flowers

This will be our 5th month TTC baby no1 and am currently in the 2WW! Been having few symptoms but could all be put down to AF if and when she decided to turn up! Currently having 32/33 day cycles and feeling a tad fed up today at CD29! Sad xxx

Cupcake92 · 17/08/2014 08:32

What a lovely mil bears!! :D

And not really Ducky as he's asleep in bed and I literally went to bed last night at 8:30pm and fell straight I sleep Grin haha!

Ducky23 · 17/08/2014 08:21

Bears can we swap mil?

Mine seems to think that I should be the main bread winner, as well as doing ALL the housework alone... Even when pregnant Blush shesa bitch! Grin

Ducky23 · 17/08/2014 08:20

Wish I could see the pic cupcake!!! Am soooo tierd! Went out last night to a friends and stayed late then this morning my lie in didn't go to plan as this cheeky monkey woke me up booting me!

Have you sorted things with DH cupcake?

Bearsinmotion · 17/08/2014 07:56

Congrats siarie!

I found the first 12 weeks were the worst and the last two weeks but let's not go there in terms of how I felt, it must get better soon!

Mil is here this weekend, yesterday she persuaded DP that I should stay in bed while they looked after DD so I could have a break. I love Mil Grin

Cupcake92 · 17/08/2014 07:50

Yep people kept asking if I was having twins and when I told them, nope just one little boy. They were shocked!!!
He was 8lb 13oz! I'm only 5"3 so I'm small. I hope I'm not as big this time round! I had steroid injections with DS so I'm convinced they made him grow big.

Siarie I felt like that early on. It's annoying as u think "it's too early I shouldn't feel awful yet" but u do :(

Siarie · 17/08/2014 07:45

Oh my god! You were massive, I bet people kept saying twins! Xx I wonder how big you'll be this time, was your DS a born a average weight?

I'm only 3w 3days and I'm already knackered, yesterday evening was a stretch and I keep waking up really early.

Cupcake92 · 17/08/2014 07:40

Just thought I'd share with u all a picture of me when pg with DS. I still had a month to go haha. But I was HUGE! So u can imagine why they said DS was too big for me to push him out. At this point I couldn't lie down as it was too painful and I had begun to find it very hard to walk!
Not to put u all off or anything!! Haha! :p

Cupcake92 · 17/08/2014 06:10

That's good lilla :)
Ms is better but I still have it. It's not every day tho :) hope urs gets better soon! It's awful feeling so sick :(

Aaw lulu Grin ur DH makes me laugh! Hope u enjoyed ur meal

LuluJakey1 · 16/08/2014 23:27

We've been out for a meal with some friends tonight. DH has had 4 pints and has been sliding his hand up my leg in the taxi on the way home. Honestly!

However, when I came up to bed after feeding the cats he had fallen asleep- usual pattern if he has more than 3 drinks. Grin The great lover!

lillamyy1 · 16/08/2014 21:27

I'm ok thanks Smile he's apologised now.
Have you still been having ms or has it gone now? Hoping mine will go quickly!

Cupcake92 · 16/08/2014 20:28

Aww lilla :( that's horrible. I hate it when DH calls me pathetic! I hate that word! Hope ur alright lilla :(

See I would argue back too him but I'm so tired tonight I just Cba. He's gone into the lounge to play on it now and I'm now in bed. DS went to bed half and hour ago and I was so eager to jump in my bed. I don't get it, I'm exhausted, like rele exhausted. Pregnancy is very tiring hahaa!

lillamyy1 · 16/08/2014 20:07

Men and their playstations! Mine was on his for ages earlier playing Batman. Then he called me pathetic for crying about feeling so sick Angry

Cupcake92 · 16/08/2014 19:36

Just so argumentative at everything. -_-
Over what time to order food.
Grr!!! He stormed off upstairs to go on his playstation lol

iamdivergent · 16/08/2014 19:20

Hope you are ok cupcake Sad Thanks

Ducky23 · 16/08/2014 18:52

Cupcake are you ok? Should I be expecting mine to go mental?! Confused

Lil, it depends on your ni contributions, if DH is working full time probably not. You might be entitled to working tax credit as depending on your income? There's a website called turn2us that you can put all your details in (do it as if you have stopped working) and it will tell you if you will be entitled to anything Smile

Siarie · 16/08/2014 18:49

Oh no what's he done now?

lillamyy1 · 16/08/2014 18:26

What's happened Cupcake? Thanks
