Congratulations CE!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry AF showed up HC

I am taking it easy and will see how things go today. Will go to the out of hours if I am in as much pain as I was last night but for now not too bad. Can't help but feel it is starting to creep back in now that I've stood and cooked for half an hour. I am off to Tesco to spend clubcard vouchers (oh the excitement!) and I will see how I feel after that.

Hi to everyone else!

And a special Hi to the new guys on the thread!!

Sorry, I am a bit self obsessed at the moment but I am rather worried

ChocolateEclair · 26/05/2008 10:52

Still in shock!

Going in to town to buy another pg test (one of those digital ones!)

Willmouse - hope you are OK. Please keep us updated and take it easy today.

ChocolateEclair · 26/05/2008 10:23

Erm...I couldn't wait any longer. I caved in and tested.

....Leaf it is then!!!!!

HumphreysCorner · 26/05/2008 09:55

Good Luck Knax. We are all mad women in the 2WW. LOL!

willmouse-am worried about you. Better go to the Docs again tomorrow eh? Take it easy today.

Am a tad disppointed but wondering why the shorter cycle.

Bye for now.

welcome babydrip!

MrsPuddleduck · 26/05/2008 09:52

Morning all

Just a quick post. Have been ill again.

Bleeding and really bad pains yesterday which were to the left and went down my left leg

I am going to see how I go today.

Seems to have subsided again,

Knax · 26/05/2008 09:50

Sorry witch got you HC! Hope you have a good trip.
Fingers crossed for you CE.
I'm determined to hold off with the testing until saturday (if the witch doesn't get me before of course.) This last few days is always me trying not to get my hopes up too much, and I keep saying things to DH like, "Do my boobs look any bigger? Do you think I'm pg?" like a madwoman.

ChocolateEclair · 26/05/2008 08:42

Awww HC I'm really sorry . Hope you're not too disappointed. Chin up hey??? Enjoy your day xx

HumphreysCorner · 26/05/2008 08:39

Morning all

Welcome to babydrip and lots of luck.

ChocEclair-my temp dropped below the basal line this morning and have just been to the loo and looks like AF came early (due Friday). Well, at least it stops all the waiting. Still not over for you until AF comes-fingers crossed.

Better get some breakfast-have been up early every morning as I couldn't sleep waiting to take my temp. Must get a life! Lol!

Off to Tescos later to get some food to take with us tomorrow. Can't wait to get back and check for news. knax-soon to test?

Have a great Bank Holiday.

morning ladies

Welcome to babydrip!! I'm impressed that you have officially joined us ....GOOD LUCK!!! As ceebee said it will pick up during the week!

Hope you are all ok. My BBQ went really well, and it stayed dry! I was overjoyed to get a cuddle of the new baby (aww) as did DP. He was sooooo warm and cuddly. And he was being BF right next to me and I didn't freak out at all. This is MASSIVE progress for me. I only had about 1/3 glass of wine (just in case)

Temp has gone down a bit today so feeling a bit less hopeful. DP says not to get hopes up. If it drops again tomorrow then its over for this month. I was so close to testing yesterday but managed to refrain(just)!

Have a great bank holiday everyone xx

babydrip · 25/05/2008 22:02

Welcome Babydrip It is a bit quiet on this thread at the weekends but we more than make up for it during the week

Tell us a bit more about yourself - do you have any other children, how long you have been TTC etc.

CE/Knax/HC - keeping everything crossed for you this week and hope AF stays away! HC - don't be too disappointed as it is the first cycle

Majormoo - shocking news tonight eh? Poor Avram I quite grew to like him in the end even though I thought it was a complete disaster when he took over from Jose (although Jose was god in my eyes - in every way )

CE - enjoy the bbq tomorrow - hope the rain stays away for you.

Am sat here twiddling my thumbs again waiting for DH to get home from cricket - tea is in the oven overcooking and I bet he is in the pub having a drink - grrrr!

Well Eurovision for me tonight - yippee!! I love it although I do normally watch it with a bottle of wine so it may not be as much fun watching it sober

Hope you are all having a good weekend.

HumphreysCorner · 24/05/2008 19:20

Have hit the vino again tonight to make myself feel better. Was looking on the temping threads and one lady has an exact copy of my chart and just got a BFP. Dreading taking my morning temp because if it doesn't rise it will me a tad low even though it is only our first month of trying.

DD1 keeps asking why I stick the thermometer in my mouth, As we don't want to tell her anything, what do I say?

Hope all OK.

Hi everyone,
I agree with CE re everyone (v thorough CE!)
Major moo, all will be well with nuchal. When I had it with DS i was sick as a dog all day, don't know if nreves made pg sickness worse or was nerves.
HC stay positive and enjoy hols
CE I'm keeping verything crossed for you, I won't be testing til fri/ sat as I have long cycles, but let us know how you get on weds!

soosy · 24/05/2008 13:47

ooh CE keeping fingers crossed! Impressed about your DP's Grandma! even if you are doing the cooking have a fab time.

MJIM, perhaps you should now try meccano!

Willmouse, have no suggestions, but I have to say that after IVF treatment my cycle changes all the time. Glad to hear that Doctor was nice though - it does help.

Majormoo, i am sure everything will be fine.

I had second scan yesterday, everything fine have one follicle growing well, lining a bit thin, but I haven't had a postive OPK yet, so there is growing time! Got to keep OPKs over the weekend and go back on Monday. Hoping postive OPK before or on Monday! Have a lovely weekend everyone.

ChocolateEclair · 24/05/2008 10:25

HC - it's not over til the fat lady sings! Be positive!

HM2J - you will notice that I didn't kick you either! (I was just pmsl at the others kicking the wrong person!! LOL). Hope ds2 is feeling better today

knax - well done for holding out! I am as well! Will you test wednesday??? (I am!)

MJIM - I have a horrendously difficult puzzle he can have! I can't even do it myself! It was a xmas present - a picture mosaic one of Mona Lisa !!!! Might be a tad tricky just yet!

majormoo - good luck with the nuchal scan. Fingers crossed for you xx

ceebee - hope you are feeling more energetic! Are you still having MS? I reckon DH should let ds play cricket with him!

willmouse - hope the bleeding has stopped. I am worrying about you a bit . Hope you are OK.

hello Soosy - when is the FET? Can't be long now?

Hi to Mandy - glad you are feeling better talking to us all! We are friendly I agree!

Hope everyone else is OK and enjoying their bank holiday!!!

DP's 88 yr old Grandma is having a BBQ tomorrow (we are cooking I think!) and his cousin with the tiny baby is coming! Yey! I might get to hold my first baby in 4 years!!! ...am very excited!

No sign of AF here, temp has gone up again today! trying (and failing) not to get excited!

HumphreysCorner · 24/05/2008 09:07

Morning all

Had a temp dip this morning so doesn't bode well. I just think back to last time I was TTC and wasn't temping-I wouldn't have known about temp dips and rises. It is excellent for finding OV day but a bugger for playing with your emotions in the 2WW.

Have a good day ladies. Sorting the clothes for the caravan-at DD1's dancing last night we were chatting and most of them are jetting off somewhere hot. So want to go to Spain again but FIL has bought us the caravan to take the girls away so must get some use out of it.

hi all.
don't be disheartened HC, and try and hold out for the testing!
I'm going to try and hold out
until 15 DPO if AF doesn't get me before then! Last month I had a bit of spotting at first and got all excited as that was what happened when I got pg with DS, then in the morning it turned into AF - boo hoo!
I really am knax today, as couldn't sleep v well, and even though DS managed until 7am it still felt like 5am!
Knax x

HumphreysCorner · 23/05/2008 20:46

Ay up Heartmum-I didn't kick you either.

MJIM-1000 piece puzzle next methinks.

ceebee-you'll never be full of energy as the further along you get the older DS will get and be more demanding. Only joking!

Love to all

evening all-you have been really chatty so have only skimmed the recent posts, but hope everyone is OK
Firstly Bellie-congratulations

And Ceebee-oh poor John Terry. Think DH, FIL and BIL are just about coming to terms with it. The cake went down well despite the result.

Welcome Mandy/Knax

HM2J hope your DS is OK after the mix up

Willmouse have not caught up as to whether you have complained to the nursery yet, but I would expect to be told if they were implementing something like that with my child.Like CE said, you don't want to be labelled naughty before you have even started school. Hope your bleeding sorts itself out

MJIM hope all is well. Well my DD is 4 and needs lots of encouragement (putting it nicely) to tidy up so your DS is doing well. Although have to say the battle of wills tends to increase as they get older in my vast experience

Soosy hope all well with you

BB hope you are feeling OK

Have my nuchal scan on 3rd June-aaaah. It is not til 4.10pm either so I will be a nervous wreck by then.PLus they ALWAYS run late
