@flapjackered don't be fooled. This was when we were having photos and viewings for selling it. I only took a pic because it's never looked so tidy before!!! Haha xxx

FlapJackered · 09/09/2018 01:00

WAHHHH! Congratulations @BabySquid That's the best news!!

Omg I love the kitchen porn @BambiOnIce80 @Crossfitgirl @Delilah7
How are your kitchens SO tidy!? They look like model homes!
Slightly tempted to post mine but even at its tidiest it looks like a dump compared to yours!

Ooh @BabySquid congrats!! Very exciting! xx

House hunting was interesting. Everywhere in our price range is gonna need some work, which is great but I'm just watching the money drain away...

SSP woke up again today and as my shoulder has been a little sore today it has convinced me I'm having an ectopic. I'm sure it'll find something else to focus on tomorrow.

If anyones into Reddit there's a trying for a baby subreddit with a weekly bfp thread. I like to read these for the symptom spotters. What's funny about this weeks is that most of the ladies who got their bfps this week had no symptoms at all. Thought that might reassure any of you who worry you're out this month!

cupcakesandglitter · 08/09/2018 21:42

Okay, I will do ☺️ thanks @RanchoRelaxo x

RanchoRelaxo · 08/09/2018 21:32

In with a chance how? I think opk results are a bit dodgy sometimes, can vary on stuff like how concentrated your wee is, ive had months where I haven't got a true 'positive' and like you just had almost positives. If I were in your shoes I would test again tomorrow, and if the lines really faint still, take today as the positive and presume that you just missed the surge in the few hours that you didn't test, and prepare for ovulation to happen within a day or two 😊

cupcakesandglitter · 08/09/2018 21:23

@RanchoRelaxo I tested around 5pm I think, and then whatever time I posted when my last message was 😅 a few hours - but if this one is faint and I've missed the surge, am I still in with a chance? I'm planning on it don't worry 😈😈 x

RanchoRelaxo · 08/09/2018 21:10

Thanks cupcakes 😀 and as for the opk, how long apart did you test? Apparently the surge can sometimes only last for a few hours so quite possible you missed it, especially if the one from earlier was almost positive anyway! I would judge it as positive today and get baby making 😁🍆

Patapouf · 08/09/2018 20:52

I’m obsessed with that shade of green bambi I’m looking for a sofa that colour at the moment, I figure I’ll need an upgrade when I’ll be spending so much time on it during future mat leave Wink

cupcakesandglitter · 08/09/2018 20:43

@RanchoRelaxo you win 😂 enjoy my darling!! Have one for me too x 🍷

cupcakesandglitter · 08/09/2018 20:42

@ValidUser I'm with the others, you have my respect too 😂 you need a bloody award for patience!!

@Delilah7 ooh yes it does help! It's just so bleeding expensive 😩😩 I need an endless pot of money to do everything I want to the house. Just seems like one job after the other!

I had my darkest OPK earlier (pretty much matches the control) BUT I've just done another and it's sooooo much fainter 😭 what does this mean? (Planning on pouncing on DH when he walks through the door)

RanchoRelaxo · 08/09/2018 20:35

😂😂 ValidUser good stock piling

My kitchen is shit and I don't have any frers, but I do have a nice icy glass of gin which tastes lush 😀 have tried to upload a pic to show you lot how lovely it looks but it won't upload 🙄 haha

sunshine1987 · 08/09/2018 19:38

@BabySquid think I already congratulated you, but if not, CONGRATS!

ValidUser · 08/09/2018 19:04

Ok, my kitchen is shite but I own 20 FRERs. What do I win?

BambiOnIce80 · 08/09/2018 19:03

Urgh 😣 Sanding done and first coat of gloss on 👍 The downside is I'd now rather stove DP's head in with a can of dulux satinwood gloss than make a baby with him... not ideal in the FW 😒

purplestar9 · 08/09/2018 18:24

Congratulations @BabySquid !! So exciting! 😃

stormtrooperjulian · 08/09/2018 16:52

Wow ladies I have massive kitchen envy at the moment! I’m waiting to have a wall knocked down, then I can have a beautiful kitchen too. @BambiOnIce80 I love that green!

MrsR16 · 08/09/2018 14:39

Wow ladies your kitchens are awesome! I have total kitchen jealousy... I'm in the throes of decorating my hall/stairs/landing and it's taking forever!!

Congrats @BabySquid 💕

@Delilah7 @Crossfitgirl @BambiOnIce80 Your kitchens are all incredible!!! Our kitchen is bloody awful, I hate it more than anything - currently saving to be able to get a wall knocked out to make it one big room. Your kitchens are giving me inspiration!!! Xx

@BambiOnIce80 @ttcat32 thank you guys!!! Yours are too. I didn't think I'd want one that's so 'posh' but as my OH is a heating and plumbing engineer he's in houses all the time so knows what he wants 😂😂😂
