jingleballs: funny boy!

jingleballs · 17/12/2004 12:31

girls just a quick bit of an email I want to show u all.... (it's from DH on about my xmas pressie... he can't decide!)

"Then I thought of adopting a dolphin for you....but decided that we need to money more than he does....he hasn't even got a wallet to keep it in....in fact he hasn't even got TROUSERS to keep the wallet in...and so the money would only get wet...either that or he'd spend it on cheap fish and loose dolphins so I decided against that (besides we havn't got anywhere to keep him...I think that the bath's too small)"

OMG what have I married! lol, anyhow it made me laugh so hoping it will cheer someone else up!

will stop in again properly later on.

morningpaper · 17/12/2004 12:08

P.S. I've got NO IDEA where I got it from because the men I slept with all used condoms, except the poor unfortunate that I passed it on to. Although at the time I did write a bitchy letter to a certain waitor that I met in Italy ...

Morning girls - fab new thread I see! 2 BFP already, blimey you were quick off the mark!!! Excellent news, so pleased for you.

Well, I am finally off the progesterone pills (prescribed by Dr to induce long awaited period) and now just waiting for af so I can FINALLY start the clomid on day 2. Fell like I have been saying that for ages now but hopefully this can't fail now??!

So sorry to read about your nightmare at the Dr's Tania, and good for you for telling him whats what. You go girl! There are always options to every situation so good on you for not simply accepting what he says..........

morningpaper · 17/12/2004 12:06

Tania I think it takes a long time (years) for chlamydia to develop into problems like blocked tubes. It is usually symptomless. AFAIK smears won't pick it up, you have to get tested for it specifically. I don't know whether is 'disappers' from your system or whether it lurks indefintely. (Perhaps you could ask NHS Direct?)

Might not BE that of course!

moschops · 17/12/2004 12:02

Tania.......i am really keeping my fingers crossed that you get the happiness you deserve. it's an awkward position for me to be in......my pregnant friend said to me she felt so bad that i was having problems ttc and i thought 'yeah right, says you with your 7 month bump' but now its happened to me well, to be totally honest, i've had a few tears today because i'm so frustrated on your behalf. and i understand what my friend meant. i don't want to leave this thread because i want to be pregnant and growing fat with you guys on here. i feel like your my best mates and i'm scared to be out there doing this without you.

i should be bouncing around (and i AM happy) but i still can't help feeling like it's rubbing your noses in it if i grin all the time.

sorry i'm really tired and emotional today.....i'm going to go and eat chocolate.....

Tania2 · 17/12/2004 11:46

Thank you so much girls for all your hugs and support. It really means alot to me especially atm.
Morningpaper thanks so much for that link very interesting reading even read it to dh. we just cant work out how i could have clamidya??? surely one of us would know???
RD sorry about the bfn fingers crossed you have just tested too early.
jb will have to look up clamidya now. I just cant work out how it wouldnt be detected i have regular smears and was tested for all sorts of stuff when i found out i was pg with ds. Even gave dh the BIG "have you played up on me"
Congratulations moschops what a way of telling us you must have been speachless. good on ya girl. But cant help being a little

moschops · 17/12/2004 11:23

well having discussed it with dp this morning we are great believers in the benefits of wine and have agreed that one glass every now and then won't hurt baby. so i'll just have one glass and as i'm a tightwad no-one will bat an eyelid if i make it last all night.

it'll just be a change from my usual drunken self....

although just typing that and the thought of wine has made me feel queasy!! how will i cope if pregnancy makes me go off wine!!!!! as long as i can still stomach chocolate then everything will be fine.

xxxxxxxx*

Chuffingoodtime · 17/12/2004 11:14

oh and congrats to you and kizzy!

Chuffingoodtime · 17/12/2004 11:14

moschops how about telling people that you are ttc and it is best to not drink. That way you people won't "guess".

MINNIE1 · 17/12/2004 10:53

moschops,
Comgrads Really happy for you.. Wishing you a healty and happy PG...

morningpaper · 17/12/2004 10:01

Aw, thanks Moschops! We are REALLY pleased for you - ok and a teeny bit jealous maybe... But we are here to GRADUATE remember so BFP's are what it's all about. I'm chuffed to bits for you.

It's a bit annoying that everyone will notice your sobriety over christmas! XXX

Sallie · 17/12/2004 10:00

Rudy - sorry about your BFN . It never seems to get easier does it? I feel like a fraud complaining about the ttc process when I already have two lovely kids but that doesn't seem to make the whole cycle of hope and disappointment any less tricky.
Anyway, I am also a big believer that things happen for a reason so I am sure that we will all succeed at some point....here's to a very Happy Christmas and a very fertile New Year!!!! . As you can see, I am in holiday mode already - last day in the office today until 4 Jan - that is, unless I have to come in after all.....

moschops · 17/12/2004 09:53

can i just say.....i'm obviously over the moon at the news i received this morning....but i sat for ages on here before i plucked up the courage to tell you guys.

knowing how much heartache i've had, with my nightmare irregular cycles and having no idea what was going on with my body, at one point i thought i would never get pregnant. now i've got my bfp it makes me realise even more how hard it must be to get that bfn month after month. i'm really sending good babymaking vibes out to you guys.

dp and i have decided not to tell anyone in RL yet. it is really early days and i still can't quite believe it. of course it won't be secret for long, most people will probably guess why i'm having a sober christmas!!!

i'm gonna stay on the ttc thread for now, don't feel ready to move on yet, and am gonna stay and throw babydust everywhere Tinkerbell style!!

Sallie · 17/12/2004 09:40

CONGRATULATIONS! . Have just heard that my middle sister is expecting in August too so lots of happy news for Christmas. Just hope this is our month...and hope its a lucky month for everyone else ttc.

ernest · 17/12/2004 09:40

turn your back for 2 seconds and it all kicks off! Amazing, fantastic well done to both of you, so pleased we finally got some bfp's! That's your Christmas booze up knackered though

Twiga · 17/12/2004 09:18

jingleballs · 17/12/2004 09:09

moschops · 17/12/2004 09:05

i did indeed!!! i couldn't resist weeing on a stick this morning, and after convincing myself i sooooooo wasn't pregnant i couldn't believe my eyes when i checked and saw a little cross where i expected a line.

had to get dp to check the result against the picture on the back of the box to be sure!!!

jingleballs · 17/12/2004 09:04

moschops come on girl, i need to get to work!

Hulababy · 17/12/2004 09:03
