Waiting to TTC,any one else in similar sitch??

Hello

Diege, I did warn about the sound! PMSL though, got such a mental picture in my head now

Georgdie, Cambodia, lovely You will have to watch you don't have a stowaway in your suitcase on the way back! I have heard stories about that place!!!

Playing, welcome back Glad you had a good weekend You do know that now you will forever be hooked on knowing exactly what your CM looks like, even when you don't want anymore children! It is a long slippery slope my friend, welcome to the dark side!!!!

LG&T, 35!!!! obviously pregnancy is catching down your way, we might have to move a little bit further south than planned I don't really know how old I thought you were, but with having so many kids, I just assumed you were erm... older I don't know of any websites that are good for TTC'ing, all of my finds I have linked to have come from other threads on MN, though a quick google came up with this, don't really know if it any good or not though. And I am sorry, but I am not brave enough to put EWCM into Google, I'll let you take that particular plunge

Oh LG&T a RL meet up indeed, i do lurve gunwharf, tis so nice and clean!

lucky you with your 5 bed place! 35 Babies wowzers, madness!
i quite like rupert, but DP wouldnt have it, My arguement is i'l be doing all the hard work so i want to pick but obv he unreasonably calmly declares i cannot hog the child all for myself, no fair!!!

Bet NJ will be along with a website for you shortly xx

Hello ladies,i have been to work this morning and between 4 of us we had 35 children. It is just a little creche run by the wives Club (dh Navy) i only do 2 mornings a week. It was busy, far too many babies. You all would have loved it!

Horay a RL meetup! BeMyLilBbaby i am in Alverstoke just outside the lovely (not) Gosport. Gun Wharf for coffee methinks?

NJ just how old did you think i was I was whinging big time about being 30 last year but only because dh is only bliimin 27 JUST!!! Gah.

We have a 5 bedroomed house but may need bigger the next time we move. Wont be for a while yet though, will stack and rack till DH job changes post.

I love the name Rupert, was not allowed I have no boys names left! DH will have to chose. Lots of girlie names i like though, trouble is i only dont seem to do girls (have 5 boys 1 girl) so i keep naming the rabbits my fave ones! Have had a Violet, Florence and Jemimah.

How is everyone else? Can someone link me to a very good TTC website please? I want the pics of CM (nice) and CD count etc. Thank you!

Hi Everyone,

OMG we have been so busy here while we are away!!!

Not really got too much time to chat at the moment as I have loads of work to catch up on but just wanted to say hi. Like the idea of being the crude thread, suits me down to the ground!! And GOF is much better than BD, rather have that any day .

Been compulsively CM spotting this cycle and it has paid off, got load of EWCM yesterday (actually quite like the picture!!! ) on CD18. This is the first time I have paid proper attention so I am pleased I did!

Had a great long weekend, drank too much, got too little sleep but it was worth it.

Talk later xxx

Hi girls! Well NJ you've just had my office colleague in stitches, with the 'the vagina is acidic' broadcast at top volume across the room Hopefully she won't ask what it was I'm looking at (and why!)
TEUCH, not long till postie...will you do an afternoon wee for us?
Re; questions about work, I went back full-time after dds1 & 2 and it was only after dd3 that I dropped to 'part-time' (4 days a week). Even though I get paid 20 % less I can't say I do any less, lol...I too like the 'add ons' of working out of the home (plus £ of course!)and for me staying at home just wouldn't suit me persoanlly. Having said that, I do enjoy my Fridays at home, and could 'get into' the whole SAHM thing I think if I put my mind to it...but then I'd feel guilty about not working...blah blah blah...Think part-time is a good compromise, but do bear in mind that for some jobs it means a drop in status (if that's important to you) and the drop in income too can be hard to get used to!
Oh and I think I might drop back to May if that's OK girls!! . Have been looking at schedule and it's manic in April (plus dh is away for part of it)...but who knows I might think differently come April!

Balls here

Yes, I can't wait to move, we really feel like we are bursting at the seams here.

Have just found http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/miracle/media/2816_qlg_03.html this linked on another thread, I haven't watched it all the way through, but thought some of you might be interested (It has sound BB, so watch out before you click!!)

I work from home - when I am not procrastinating on MN!!!

It has worked out great for me - I work part-time (flexible, as in I choose) hours for 2 organisations.

Downside - I miss 'colleagues' and going to work, honest! I liked my job though...

And I miss all the add-ons that come with work - nippin to shops at lunch break, gonig for drinks, socials.

Ha ha Teuch you are a lady after my own heart, i would but DP would murder me a bit he he i dont mind waiting till apr, im gonna have coil out in march so it might be sooner

NJ it will be nice to move, I lurve william as a name and i like thomas harrisson and george byt DP wants william after his grandad, if we are going that route timothy will be a middle name because that was my daddys name... arg the choices you must make !!

I also like Micha (prounounce Mee-sha) for a girl... oh im mega broody now, I dont think it helps that my job is feast and famine so to speak.. I love it one day, but really hate it the other...

Those of you who went back to work part-time, How did you find it just out of interest? xx

LOL Teuch, you're impatient???? How do you think the rest of us are waiting for your news?!!!

Because obviously we need to know much more then you

God morning all! Firstly, the post won't get here til about 2.30pm so don't hold your breath!! And it may yet contain zilch!!

Secondly, I have a theory about you ones putting off ttc for overdrafts and getting fit and the like...it goes a little bit like..

JUST GET ON WITH IT!!!!!

I'm impatient!

Morning laydee's

BB well done for telling your mum, glad she sounds OK about it, must be a weight off your mind Lola and William are lovely names (DS1 was very very nearly William, it just didn't suit him when he was born so Thomas won!)

Geordie, April isn't as far away as May!! Where are you going on your hols? I am with you on the old fashioned names

I have just nipped into town (running away for mums and tots in reality!) why does everyone all of a sudden seem to be pregnant/have a newborn? It is always the same when you have TTC on your mind! I did managed to once again not buy any magazines, which I am feeling quite proud of, though will admit that I looked and all of the stuff on the front cover I already knew about anyway so didn't seem any point getting it!

We will hopefully be moving as well before the baby comes, I bloody hope so, there is no way we could fit another person in here, but it depends on how quickly we can sell it. So I have a few rough ideas on nursery themes but until I know where the nursery is going to be, I won't know for sure!

I suppose I should probably be getting on with housework or something... maybe later

(still waiting for Teuch!)

Morning geordie,

know what you mean about april being a way-away, ive got bday to distract me luckily I am officially sad, and have already fallen out with DP once over names he he

however we have agreed that Lola will be our first DD's name, and cant really agree on DS's name, I quite like william, but dont like bill. I like jack but he doesnt..arg!

teuch whats going on? we need an update!

Playing did you have a nice weekend? anyone seen cosmo on any threads lately?

xx

morning all!!

BB2B I know what you mean bout hoggin a baby, my goddaughter gets kidnapped when she comes round he he.

I like teddy bear coulours for a baby's room, creams and biege's with a teddy bear border i think, cos its unisex he he but just like you no baby yet!!

DP and i had a discussion last night and have agreed april is a likely month, cos we both need to get outta O-drafts, but after that we're on waheyyyy lol im totally over excited

told mum bout hol last night she was ok about it, i just relentlessly blamed DP, im sure she'l be ok bout it so least thats outta the way now.

my PG friend is coming over on thursday night be nice to see ehr and her LO's, she has 2 girls.

Whats everyone else up to? xx

Good morning BB2B LOL I don't think I've ever said that 7.42pm before!!

Glad you had a good weekend! You wait till you are pregnant and the moans start creeping in You can't help it when you are pregnant, moans come with the job

Oooo nursery themes... will get my thinking head on and come back to you DS1's was dinasaurs, but cute ones, and DS2's was blue gingham and yellow, looked, infact looks much nicer than it sounds

Esme is a lovely name I like Freya as well, but always reminds of someone on my post-natel thread, she lost her little girl who was called Freya, so it always makes me a bit sad when I hear it now.

Anyway, kids to get to bed, dinner plates to be put in dishwasher, and alcohol to be drunk See you all tomorrow, Teuch, as soon as post arrives I want news OK?!!! G'night all xxx

Morning all! Well you have been busy while I've been hidden away in the snowy mountains!

A big hello to Geordie & G&T!

I laughed out loud about the names thing - we have sorted out how our parental leave is going to work, nursery decorations (sailing theme for a boy in red, white & blue) and sort of a french/Euro theme for a girl with lots of travel icons, eiffle tower, collesium, big ben, etc) and even some names but there is no baby!!! For boys names we're sorted -we like either Cai Rupert Fraser or Keiran Fraser Rupert both work with our last name but girls we're stuck on. I LOVE Esme and dh likes Freya (which I HATE) so not sure what will happen there.

Had a lovely weekend with our "gang" - I was a massive baby hog of the beautiful 2 month old girl who was there which was so nice. She slept on my chest for hours. Only thing I found slightly difficult is the pregnant friend who kept complaining and complaining about being fat and her stomach, etc and I kept say "Well you're supposed to have a belly - there's a baby in there." but there are only so many times you can say that before you want to scream - at least your %^&*ing pregnant! But she's a good friend so I bit my tongue!

Oooooh aren't I chatting this morning - should really go do some work!

This week I will mostly be waiting for Thursday to come round (Payday ) and then for Friday so that it is no longer January

Other than that, I have to decide whether I am going to face mums and tots tomorrow, we've got board games (I think ) after school on Wednesday, and at some point I need to get to the hair dressers for a trim and for the boys to have theirs chopped. Not sure what else, oh yeah, forgot the most important thing, MNing

Somewhere in that lot we also have a trip to Tesco looming, a trip to DH's mums (only about an hour away), a trip to the local tip, I need to nip into town to get some new boots, a door handle and some cutlery, bit of an odd shopping list! And I have had a hankering for a McDonalds all week so that will probably happen at some point!

I don't normally do McDonalds, but I cannot stop thinking about a bigmac, fries and choccy milkshake!

large G&T where bouts in pompey are you? im there too, near the city centre, in NorthEnd so you can tell me first hand what mat care's like etc... oh and if you have any feed back on what M&T groups are like too .....and i love your childrens names!!!

whats everybody up to this week anyway? x

Teuch, keep us all hanging why don't you

LG&T I have just looked at your profile for the first time ever, I had no idea you were so young! and a little

Hmmmm not sure about children saying i love you, mostly i'm grateful they dont say i hate you

They can be very entertaining though, the twins (10 this year) have me in stitches an awful lot recently. A few months ago they got up extra early (very quietly) i hear everuything as their room is next to mine. When i walked in to wake them up they leapt out the wardrobe! I jumped a mile, it was hillarious.

Of course Hugo (3) is being a nightmare today and has been running circles round me all day. I have the upper hand though... i have booked him in to a playschool as of next week

No can do, but I admire your persistence!!!

I had better go and do some work and take my mind off it

Will call back in later.

Everything feels right, because it is right

Can you not get on the ferry and go to the mainland? In fact, better idea, send DH

I don't know how you are holding out!

oh, and no pigs sadly!!
