Afternoon girls, Nat, no we didn't have an explosion! We went out to the pub, lightweight I had 3 vodkas and fell asleep almost as soon as we got home. moody arse DH not impressed and has been a bit grumpy today.

NatalieJane · 27/04/2008 15:11

I love them till about dinner time, where you get that lazy arsed feeling of having done nothing all day, I think the boredom kicks in, all you want to do is go to bed, but you can't even be bothered to do that!

Like now, I am bursting for a wee, but can't be bothered to go up and have one...! LOL

nobodyputsBBinthecorner · 27/04/2008 15:06

lol im in jammas too and MIL just left.... ha ha !! i love jamma days x

NatalieJane · 27/04/2008 14:55

Sorry had to ask! (Can you imagine her on one of these threads?!! And your typing isn't that bad I have to say!!)

DH has taken DS1 to MIL's, DS2 is asleep, I am still in jamma's, don't know what to do with myself!

nobodyputsBBinthecorner · 27/04/2008 14:52

lol Nope Nj, you know when you have a spazzy fingers day?? thats me today!!!

NatalieJane · 27/04/2008 14:47

Exactly Kay, saying something like that is almost asking for an 'accident'

BB, are you really Cod?

nobodyputsBBinthecorner · 27/04/2008 14:42

arg my typing sucks!!

nobodyputsBBinthecorner · 27/04/2008 14:42

afternoon ladies!

NJ sorry bout the slide that is just so typical of some unsrupulous persons on ebay!

AF is still here lucky me!

as for accidents...i dotn think i cld do it, but know one person who has... its ogne ok for her but her DP is a totaly dorrmat anyway x

kayzisexpecting · 27/04/2008 14:13

Its stupid really. If you don't want anymore kids then don't say that you wouldn't mind an accident happening. Just say no.

NatalieJane · 27/04/2008 14:06

See I think if DH said that to me, I think I probably would try and corrupt him get him drunk..... But I think if he said that, then what he really means is 'Yeah it'd be OK, but I don't want to go through the TTC'ing again, and how much difference is one more going to really make?!!!'

But then DH would never say anything like that, he is far too black and white for any grey areas!

kayzisexpecting · 27/04/2008 14:02

I think there must be. I know I couldn't do it. Despite what EMIL thinks.
I know her friend had 3 DCs and wanted a 4th and her DH said no but if an accident happened he wouldn't mind.

pinktink30 · 27/04/2008 14:01

lol

possible symptoms cramps really bad,pooing lots (tmi)
quite wet cm

NatalieJane · 27/04/2008 13:57

Sorry Kay, I didn't mean anything by saying it isn't as simple as sticking a pin in it, I meant, there is a lot more to it emotionally to it then the actual act of how ever you cause the accident, IYSWIM?!!

Tink, (I am going to keep calling you Tink, no matter what you change your name to, I can't keep up!!! ) you are better than me, before DS2 came along, I'd have xmas sorted by October, and DS1's birthday sorted at least 3 months before, now, I am normally still sorting things in the morning of xmas/birthdays! This year before DS1's birthday we were up till about 2.30 in the morning blowing up balloons and putting banners up, when I say we, I obviously mean me, DH was snoring on the sofa!

kayzisexpecting · 27/04/2008 13:35

Nat, I think she was hoping the holes would cause it to split. She knows someone who got pregnant after sticking a needle through a condom a few times. Thats where she got the idea.

CosmogirlIsStillWaiting · 27/04/2008 13:28

I think we need more info GJ....but for what it is worth, I reckon this kind of thing is much more common than people think. I know of two women who are likely candidates to have orchestrated pregnancies without partner's prior knowledge. Personally it isn't something I could do. I would want to know that DH was 110 per cent on board with the idea of becoming a Dad first. If it is what you want, but not what they want, ultimately I don't think it will end well.

Anyhoo, you got our five pence worth! [even if you weren't asking for it!] Hope everyone else is having good Sundays. I am currently putting off all the jobs I should be doing by writing this message. Better hop to it I suppose......

pinktink30 · 27/04/2008 13:24

also cd33 for ovulation is great!! as bd on cd30 and cd33

pinktink30 · 27/04/2008 13:14

i have just ordered a baby annabell and magic milk bottle from ebay for dd1s bday(in aug) getting over organised again!!

tinkerbelldust · 27/04/2008 13:02

thanks d and t
i had down to test on may 10th
i am very excited about my chart
nj it is quality not quantity
sorry 4 slide hope you get it sorted out

NatalieJane · 27/04/2008 12:50

Don't get too excited for my EWCM, it was only a little bit, and I normally have at least 24 hours of it, so I am not getting excited!

Bloody eBay, anyone remember the 'Brand new in it's box water slide' I ordered about 3 weeks ago? Well it turned up, very used, grass and muck all over it, stinking of stale water, so the seller has agreed it wasn't new at all, but is still fucking about, offering us everything under the sun, except the refund. I am giving her a chance because if we go through PayPal, we will have to pay for retuned postage (about £15) whereas if she just agree's to refund then she will pay it, I wouldn't mind but the exact slide was in woolies for £100, now it has been reduced again to £89, and inc. P&P we paid £67 for the one we got, that is unusable, so there is no way we are going to settle for it, for another £22 we could have gone to woolies and ordered it properly. Grrrrrrr!

It is such a touchy subject, I can understand easily someone trying to cause an accident, but in reality it isn't as simple as putting a needle through a condom.

kayzisexpecting · 27/04/2008 12:13

The thing was he only wanted to wait 2 months until they had finished their degrees. By not waiting 6 years later she still has no children.

Diege · 27/04/2008 12:08

I know Teuch, don't think we're coming on all heavy GJ!!! Just keeping a sisterly eye on you that's all . Only you know your situation, and we're not judging, just providing anecdotal info' . If I'm totally honest, I think a missed pill or two/being economical with the truth about 'safe' times figures in my past history too, without telling dh .

TheSlightestTeuch · 27/04/2008 11:57

Tink, as I understand it, if your temps stay up then FF will confirm OV on CD33 and you are on countdown to testing! Since we don't know aboutyour luteal phase, then we will have to guesstimate 10 days from now (being 14dpo) as a suitable testing date ...7th May?

Poor GJ...we don't know for sure what exactly you are planning but we will keep you in check!!

Diege · 27/04/2008 11:51

Wow Tinks, must be quite stressful taking them every morning then!!! Think I'd rather be in ignornace, lol! Dare I ask where you are up to in the count down to testing?
Wow Kay, that's a warning story there if ever there was one! A bit of the boyfriend to tell everyone, but then can understand his anger too! My friend from years ago didn't get pregnant after her self-insemination, and has since split from BF, so all good!
