Congratulations Bubba!!!!!! ThanksThanksThanks

Ni4444 · 04/01/2016 18:29

Oh my God the outfit is fantastic! I'm envious of the blanket making. I got back into knitting two winters ago then subsequently forgot about it again but I've no idea how to crotchet. Bringing a little one into the world is a good reason to get back into the knitting i guess. Who can give me a really easy project?!

Chocaholic88 · 04/01/2016 18:29

Oh my!! Congratulations bubba ☺☺☺

Chocaholic88 · 04/01/2016 18:28

starky love it haha

Just chilling tonight...got the issue out on time and had great reviews already so going to eat chocolate and feel smug between Frantically wondering wtf is going on with my body and re-reading the booking appointment letter in case they know something I don't 😂😁🙈

BubbaNo1 · 04/01/2016 18:28

Hey sorry haven't checked on here for a while... But I've been suffering with insomnia and cramps... I'm one day late so I've just took a test... I can't believe it... It can't be can it?!

I think it is literally just the hormones this time ni and I'm soo hungry! I'll probably be a bit more normal after I've eaten ha but thank you Smile I've got some new wool so I'm going to start a new baby blanket tonight, I've got the pattern (it's on you tube if anyone wants it, ill link it) and eating the leftovers from the sweetie cupboard while watching Jonathan Creek! But its probably pms and I don't half get hangry!

choc in fairness, he was in a sassy mood last night so it's payback! Grin

We bought this today....It was Dh's idea!

What's everybody up to tonight? How was the first day back for those at work?

Yeah guess so, who knew those bastard little pissy sticks would cause so much confusion?!

Runner05 · 04/01/2016 17:55

34 upduffed cycle 2. I was completely paranoid that I was too old when we started. There is hope Wink

Chocaholic88 · 04/01/2016 17:53

It's cool indi ... we can go crazy together 😂😂

IndiX · 04/01/2016 17:51

Hahahahah Starky that sounds like me when I'm a hormonal little bastard..maybe he did out the chicken in the oven wrong though or maybe you're slightly hormonal!

Yeah choc I have a good feeling about you, it is strange you've not come on yet. Yeah I'm going to test again in the morning, worrying I've got too excited over nothing becuase they were out of the time frame?! Bloody hell maybe I'm just going a bit mad. No sign of AF here either though so we will see. The self doubt going on here is crazy! Confused

Ni4444 · 04/01/2016 17:45

Bubbles I have the exact same worries (yup I'm 33...and a half! Bloody time keeps ticking!). But in my rational moments God knows they come and go I remember that yes our fertility is starting to decline, but people in their 40s get pregnant naturally so we're not out of the game by a long shot actually! must keep telling myself this

Ni4444 · 04/01/2016 17:42

Space that cracked me up!
Oh Starky I hate to blame everything on the hormones though it could be their bloody fault! -are there other things stressing you out at the moment? Hope you do something nice and relaxing for yourself this evening

Not a sausage of a symptom here Cd27/33, about 7 days after ovulation maybe. Who fckn knows!

Chocaholic88 · 04/01/2016 17:30

starky hahahahahahahaha easy Miss Tiger 🙈🙈

StarkyTheDirewolf · 04/01/2016 17:27

I MAY concede to being slightly tempestuous today.

I just went high pitched and hysterical because he "put the dinner in the oven wrong!" And when I'd calmed down suffienctly from Chickengate, I realised, that he hadn't in fact, put the dinner in the oven wrong. Because it was literally putting a chicken. ..In the oven. Blush

Chocaholic88 · 04/01/2016 17:23

indi ... I had 3 I read out of the time frame... each postive. Never had a line on any one I've ever done before (I'm a serial checker) ...
Then that last one was a clear pink line.. within the time. Just really faint...

Then 2 negative! But no bleeding or anything!

Will test tomorrow... midwife said even if it's Negative get bloods done as she is sure I'm pregnant because I should be bleeding by now if not... not sure if that's encoruaging or not!!

Are you testing again tomorrow??

kat my OH does this also... ooo i wonder if a Lambo can pull a boat/plane/15 goats on a bicycle etc 😂😂

KatOnATinRo0f · 04/01/2016 17:15

Best comment on the thread:

Dr Mine is currently doing some research into boats. We don't live anywhere near the sea 

... Lol. So men are all the same. My DH is in medical field and still assumed I'd be pregnant immediately. And why do all men have to spend hours research stuff they don't need or want!! My DH particularly likes the "car configuration" feature on most car brand websites.

IndiX · 04/01/2016 17:11

Yeah I would really push them for an earlier appt choc, can't imagine how frustrating this all is for you? I'm driving myself mad with self doubt that my possible second line is a false positive. Crazy how different I feel now then this morning when I was looking forward to my AF and health kick!
Hope you're ok, sorry for any bfn's but I would deffo use fmu with any test or you'll just doubt the result anyway

Chocaholic88 · 04/01/2016 17:03

spacepoodle lmao sorry that made me giggle so much!! Typical male 😉

So... came home from a nice afternoon out to my booking letter from the midwife congratulating me on my pregnancy... looks like the midwife is still sure I am 😕 got some more tests from superdrug whilst I was out. Will test again tomorrow with FMU, if it still doesn't show then I'll push for a sooner blood test... eurgh!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 04/01/2016 16:52

He's a muppet dr sometimes I despair of him! Most of the time I think I'm lucky because he outs up with me! He watches mostly training videos, occasionally he'll find a subject most recent being astrology and watch YouTube documentaries usually WILDLY inaccurate ones produced by some redneck out in the arse end of the hicksville bayou decide that it is absolute fact, and produce ridiculous "facts" I just "yes dear" him a lot! But in fairness to him, he taught himself to read when he was 18 he's dyslexic plus shockingly bad school system in the Welsh valleys when he was a child

Sorry to the bfners, best bet retry with fmu tomorrow, or give it a couple of days and go again. I've been another weepy plonker, you're in good company ladies! Grin

I'm CD 27, 14dpo. I'll check with morning wee tomorrow Smile

Snowdog37 · 04/01/2016 16:20

Finished the 5 days of soy isoflavones and now to wait for ovulation, predicted to be Friday so the dh is on high alert for servicing me at least 5 times over the next week.

I haven't had any side effects from the soy, maybe a niggly ovary feeling like the follicles are pumping iron so they'll be super strong. Will start with opks again tomorrow. This will be my month, I hope.

Hope everyone else is enjoying their ride on the crazy train!

IndiX · 04/01/2016 16:16

Was it your first morning wee miley? Try again in the morning? How many dpo are you?
