Thought it was time we had a new home, seeing as we've almost outgrown the old one. So in honour to Scorpio, Sybil, BB and toomuch (hope I didn't forget anyone ) here we are - in the company of pregnant (and cheerful) ladies

What is wrong with this???
DH saw this and I like it... can't work out what is wrong with it... if anything! It's not the Bug, but that's all that seems to be wrong with it...

If we ever manage to get a 2nd they'll just have to put up with the mb. If they are lucky, they will get new covers, but not really that likely . Do have a really nice cosytoes thing - navy blue with paw print in white - lots of padding for back to compensate for lack of padding of mb!

Nomore, how are you feeling chick. Fingers and toes crossed!!

Scorpio, did I miss that you are getting a bug?? Woo. What colour? Tell me more!

littleladylollipop, lovely to see you

Mistlethrush, good for you keeping up with the fantasy shopping while I have been away

Can?t believe I missed the DD chat. Tut.

Hope everyone is good?. When are you back Gilly??

PiggyPenguin · 10/06/2008 13:20

Scorpio, we are going with James Dominic I think. Jamie is our nickname of choice, although ds thinks we should call him Jam!

Mw has announced today that she is going on holiday on the 21st. That gives me 5 days after my due date to get a home birth with her. Everyone start thinking pushing thoughts please!

nomoremagnolia · 10/06/2008 11:53

hiya fifi Good to see you again.
How's life treating you? (apart from the pcos of course)

littleladylollipop · 10/06/2008 11:37

hi everyone!

wow- lots has been happening while ive been away!

no news from me ladies- PCOS still playing me up, 3 cycles in one yr, but hey ho, musnt grumble, could be worse!

mistlethrush · 10/06/2008 09:05

I wish ds was a bit older (and therefore had large duvet) and then I would get him this www.linenstore.co.uk/kids-bedrooms-1118/monsters-bedding-1163/scary-monsters-duvet-cover-set-2837.ht ml

(Thought we hadn't been doing enough shopping recently)

Come on Jamie. Sybil - do you know anyone that does accupuncture - I got my accupuncturist to 'encourage' and ds did arrive a week early, much to my relief!

scorpio1 · 09/06/2008 19:12

sybil, come on Jamie! Does Jamie have a middle name? Ours is Levi.

NM - it must be such a rollercoaster.

PiggyPenguin · 09/06/2008 19:10

I was 41+4 with ds1 and I swear I will explode if I have to go that overdue again. I'm ready now!! Also it has been so hot today I have been feeling really awful.

Nomore, I can understand that you have ambivalent feelings about finding out whether you have been successful or not, all our fingers and toes are crossed fo you though.r

nomoremagnolia · 09/06/2008 14:10

I'm doing my best to be patient, but unlike you I know it could be bad news so I'm putting off the disappointment as much as I'm putting off the good news IYSWIM?
Jamie will be here in his own good time

OP posts:
scorpio1 · 09/06/2008 14:00

sybil - try another 2 weeks, lol!!!!

PiggyPenguin · 09/06/2008 13:59

God this waiting is killing me. 39+1 today. DH keeps ringing me to see if I have started yet and then starts tutting because he can't come home yet.

Nomore, how are you getting on with the wait? If you are being patient, could you send some of that patience my way?

mistlethrush · 09/06/2008 11:45

Wow this thread has been busy over the last week!

Scotland was great in terms of weather - couldn't have asked for better weather on the west coast (got properly wet once, and even that not driving rain, drizzled for a couple of hours on 2 other days, rest of the time sunshine). Pity ds couldn't have been a bit more restful - I think that the lack of routine was not good for him and he was a little * (please add in whatever word you want there, it would probably be appropriate!). Although, when he was being good he was delightful - and we even went to a quite posh restaurant and got stopped by someone in the ladies afterwards saying how good ds had been...

Good luck with the 2ww. No chance here I'm afraid - single beds only!

nomoremagnolia · 07/06/2008 14:12

Sybil - wishing Jamie to come for you soon

NMM - how are you? fingers crossed still

Gilly - hope you are doing well too, fingers crossed for you too!

Is ready away? i thought she might be more about my bug buying, lol! 6 days.....

Mimi is 7 weeks old now!

nomoremagnolia · 07/06/2008 10:50

Hey all, glad to hear that things are moving for you Hobnobs and hope that the appointment goes well.

38+5 here now. DD said to me this morning, is Jamie going to be here soon mummy? And I said, I really really hope so! No signs yet though although I have started the raspberry leaf tea. Fingers crossed for this weekend...

hobnobs · 06/06/2008 12:49

Nomore Hope the progesterone pessaries are doing their job.

Gilly That would be excellent if your current tenants buy the house - one less thing for you to sort out. House buying and selling is so stressful.

Have broken the news to DH about the SA on Monday - can't say he's ecstatic about it. We have to turn up 45 minutes before the appointment. Having to submit it in advance wouldn't have been much good this week - I think I ovulated on Day 15 (as opposed to my usual Day 12) so poor DH has been kept busy and is probably a bit worn out. Not sure if the disgusting tasting Chinese herbs I'm taking have affected the first part of my cycle or whether it's just a random blip. Time will tell.

I skimmed through all the information from UCH-ACU last night - lots of stuff about paying your bills on time and various consent forms though it looks like we wouldn't need to sign these just yet. There is a glossy booklet with lots of info about IVF but nothing much about IUI. Have told DH I'd like him to know the difference before we have the appointment though he did mention that as both I and the doctor know what we're talking about, he's sure he'll be ok. Will leave the relevant chapters in Zita West's book strategically positioned for weekend reading .

Gilly I know exactly what you mean about feeling nothing has happened - it feels at the moment like I've made it all up somehow as I don't feel any different to normal. I have progesterone pessaries to keep lining nice and thick though, they're very messy!
Are you going to buy in London then?
