What is it about buggies? I know it's not just me with the obsession. That icoo apple (is that right) looks quite good. Might be just right for you sam.
here's an Aria second hand collection only though, dunno if it's anywhere near you

hi ladies how are you all?
first things first...congrats to mrsbish and to OFFICIALLY congratulate pistachio
i have been about all of the buggy/pram talk i thought i was the only pram obsessor!! also i LOVE how everyone syas i have bought this for my DC when we all know that its for us (like an oversized handbag) i myself have been drooling over the new quinny buzz[mmmm] its lovely my DD or prospective DC wouldnt care if i pushed them around in a shopping trolley so its definitely for my benefit
only CD19 here so not much exciting happenin here really (except a few 'symptoms' in my mind...)

oh congrats mrsbish come join us on the october thread

fruitloop i am considering buying a mamas and papas aria twin buggy they are very light

my dh is going mad at me he wont let me look at anything
i have a bebe loola and i just love it was thinking of selling it on ebay

i was going to get my ds the mama and papas single aria buggy as its so light as well and maybe a bit more practical.

am i being silly being so excited or am i sitting myself up for a big fall??

cricri · 30/01/2008 14:57

Congratulations MrsBish and also to Pistachio, who has now graduated properly!
Hope everybody is OK today.

MrsBish · 30/01/2008 14:52

Of course i wont tell him that i told you first - but i'm rubbish at fibbing, he'll see straight through me. Oops..

thanks for all the nice messages. thing i'll hang around for a while as it is such early days.

JollyBear · 30/01/2008 14:52

Congrats mrsbish!!

Another graduate! This is a VERY lucky thread

mibbes · 30/01/2008 14:47

That's more like it, gosh, a whole day went past without a BFP! Well done MrsBish!!!

Ooh sam I am obsessed with buggies! My favourite subject! I just love em! I'm been told it's quite unhealthy actually ha ha. Right. DO NOT buy a Marco Sky! they are AWFUL. Promise me you wont buy one! promise??
My friend's had two in 8 months, crap customer service, crap workmanship. stitching comes apart and screws fall out. wheels dont turn properly either.

I've got a bog standard double Maclaren(I'm a Childminder) which is perfect. Also I have a bike attatchment which clips on the back and is fantastic. My son loves it. Maybe worth buying one instead of double?
My dream would be a double Bugaboo which would be a little extravagant (if it was invented) but I can honestly say my Bugaboo has been the best buy since having DS. He's little big for it now but if I didn't have a giant for a son I would still use it now.
I would definately go for a side by side type double. you can get quite narrow ones. Wht have you been looking at? Ebay's very good.
Got my maclaren for £70 didn't even look used

pistachio forgot to CONGRATULATE you on becomming a 'proper' graduate. Well done xx

Emmsy1 · 30/01/2008 13:19

kate I have posted to you on the m/c thread, thanks for thinking of me when your going through so much crap your selflots of love to you xxx

fruitloop sorry to hear your looking abit spotty today, (although it's very funny to read) I don't know much about spots and hormones but have read in the past that chocolate and pregnancy can make you have more spots than usual. (thats if you had any in the first place)
I'm sure someone who has more knowledge on hormones and ovulation will be along soon (possibly MrsEi25?) to give more advice.
Your on day 38 today, are you sure you didn't 'O' earlier in the month? have you tested just in case? fingers crossed XXX

Hiya, Oh kate my fingers are firmly crossed for you . How awful for you to have to go through this again

Hi sam It's so funny, when I discovered I was pg with DS (surprise BTW) three of my really good friends were pg too. Then, DP's best mate told him his girlfriend (now my very good friend) was pg too! So we all have 2-3 year olds
Funny how things work out eh!

I'm soo spotty. I do hope it is linked to ovulation . Honestly, you could do a dot-to-dot of a triangle on my face. I've got two either side of my face in exactly the same position but on opposite sides and one in the middle of my chin! I look really funny.

sam how's it over in anti-natal? nice bunch of people? Obviously not as lovely as us though but that goes without saying, ha ha

twinklingfairy · 30/01/2008 12:11

Oops, forgot. DD was on my lap distracting me. So sorry for your news kate2179

Nothing to report here, not even any EWCM yet so haven't BD yet. DH saying he is too tired and not in mood ah well, will just have to pounce soon
Though, have to say I am not holding out much hope for this month. Reckon it is the urine infection, which still hasn't completely gone 5 days now
Do you think something like that could stop being able to concieve? I feel like it will but maybe I am just feeling a litle blue about it all. 7 months and feeling sorry for myself, I guess.
Also I am not going to try in March or April so only have 2 more tries before it will be nearly 2 and a half years between LO's and I really just wanted the 2 years

Moan moan moan

mibbes · 30/01/2008 12:11

Kate I'm so sorry to hear that this has happened to you again. Emmsy mentioned that you were having a tough time last week so I've been following your progress on the MC avengers thread. I had everything crossed for you former CB . I hope you get the conclusive result one way or anohter tonight (obviously I know the preferred option) but I suspect you just want to be out of limbo land.
It is good to hear that you are so upbeat today and full of determination to get this problem sorted but feel free to vent any time as I'm sure this is all very difficult for you. Naturally we'll welcome you back here with open arms, but ideally we'd rather not have you back iyswim...

twinklingfairy · 30/01/2008 12:05

I gained a day along the way, so have just corrected it.

thanks sambrads and spink. Doing pretty rubbish but hey ho. What can you do? If my GP won't refer me this time we're just going to have to find a way to pay for a private referral. I know they say not to until 3 in a row but this one is EXACTLY the same as what happened last time, so bollocks to that!
