off in 20 mins.

no need to apologize cal thats what we are here for
have a chilling weekend you just take care of yourself

calsworld · 29/08/2008 10:24

Morning all. Tink, have fun at your scan, I know you want a boy but I'm afraid I'm voting girl..... look forward to hearing your news.

Very wobbly this morning...in fact, I didn't think I was capable of howling but apparently I am, hope the neighbours couldn't hear me.

I've got no internet connection, I'm not hiding (at the moment I've poached my neighbours but quite frankly, desperate times call for desperate measures).

I expect to be off line all weekend. Not sure how I'm going to cope, beginning to wonder if agreeing to go away is the right thing. DH phoned home and spoke to MIL, mentioned SIL and BIL who don't know, but they guessed I might be after last time I was home and MIL is concerned that if I drink this weekend, SIL will crack a joke about thinking I was pregnant so DH and MIL agreed MIL will tell SIL.

Not sure how I feel about this at all. I haven't been around anyone that knows in person and I think that's going to be tough.

Sorry, sorry, sorry everyone...I just don't know where else to go . Don't anyone mention about being on my own because I don't have anyone to be with and that makes me sad too.

Diege, I think you might not be too far away from me, if my guess at today's destination is right . SIL took her two DD there when she was pg with her DD2 and found it hard as it was all on a hillside? Hope you have a nice day.

Diege · 29/08/2008 10:20

Wouldn't that be great - an e-mail attachment with ready to insert sperm !
Right, I'm really off now!

GYo · 29/08/2008 09:58

You know Diege.... email and text are wonderful things these days....

There are a few people at my company who have many children and we often wonder how they manage it given the amount of time the spend working away..... Im amazed how advanced the "attach file" function is these days.....

Will try my best LBOX, although we are technically in different countries this weekend (England/Wales ).
LOL TINKS - I'm still putting my money on girl, though I know you're hoping boy!

tinknotlongtillscannow · 29/08/2008 09:41

thats not good enough diege lol will let you off this once.

boy or girl boy or girl boy or girl

lastboxoftampons · 29/08/2008 09:37

Hi everyone

good luck for scan today, Tink!

And, I don't really find Gok attractive per se, I just think he seems like a really lovely person. And it was so cute the way he was taking ownership over that bump!

Diege sorry your timing was a bit off - happened to us last month I was away from CD16 and we really gave it our all in the run up to my leaving, but I didn't actually ov until CD22! Good thing for you, you're both still in the same country, albeit probably tired! So get GOF'ing!

GYo · 29/08/2008 09:36

Good Luck for the scan Tink!!

Morning everyone,

Cal - Hope you slept ok and that you enjoy your weekend away

Ses - Sorry no more symptoms but it's early days, don't give up hope! I was really bad for going to the loo loads when I was pressgers but more so a bit later on, iirc a few weeks after i got the BFP so thats not the only thing to look out for. I'm temping but I don't know what 'triphasic' means , looks like to me your temp is still in the higher range iykwim.

I have to admit that I just shed a tear whilst watching the gmtv wedding, what is that about?!

Back soon x

morning se and diege

ses - knew there was something today lol
not long now leaving @ 10:50am
chart looking gr8 lady
diege-fridge cleaning sounds fun
lol about fumes

Diege · 29/08/2008 08:55

Morning SES and everyone else! How are things? Agree, our cycles may take 2 or 3 months to settle.
I've just recovered from cleaning the fridge - found some mould at the back of it so of course have had to take the whole thing apart and ATTACK! Now I'm worried that I've inhaled bleach fumes that will do a potential bean harm and I've not even ovulated yet! Have to lauugh at myself for making dh and dds go away for their trip later (Sat) to catch the egg, when would probably have been better sticking to original plan!
Hope you're OK Glask? I remember (sort of) how awful the sickness is, but maybe yours will settle back into the pattern you had? Not unusal to have one horrendous day or night in amidst more regular sickness I think.
I'd better dash as it's chaotic here and dh is giving me daggers...Catch up tonight after Gulliver's World of hell fun!

SesQal · 29/08/2008 06:54

Morning all!

Tink - (incase you've forgotten!) it's scan day!!!

Well I've not really had any more wee symptoms, or any other symptoms for that matter. Also (for those of you that know about temping) my temp dropped from 36.86 yesterday to 36.66 today. Still above coverline but definitely not triphasic. here

As for Gok, I think he's fantastic and would make a fantastic friend (and of course advisor) but LBOT, you can have him as long as I can borrow him to go shopping!

Hope everyone else is doing ok this morning.
Cal - hope you managed to get some sleep (wine maybe helped?) Hope too that your weekend away goes well - could be just what you need. Thinking of you.

Cosmo - sorry you've been so sick.
Glaskham - sorry you're feeling so sick too.
Hope both of you get the chance to lurk and look forward to having you back posting soon.

2BG & Kooky - understand the need to take a break. Take care and come back to us when the time is right.

NJ - sounds like you had a busy weekend. My mum only lves a 3 minute drive away which I often think is way too close but I guess it does mean that she only ever pops by and we never have her to stay! We have a funny relationship where she thinks I'm her best friend but the whole family (for various reasons) find her v frustrating and annoying.

Diege - how are you doing? It may be that our cycles are taking a while to settle back into some sort of regular pattern. Some good GOFing can only increase chances of catching that egg though!

Hello everone else!

Dalrymps · 28/08/2008 22:45

Well, not sure i'd want Gok so you can have him

lastboxoftampons · 28/08/2008 22:24

me too - 'cept now I want Gok to be the daddy (sorry DH! )

Dalrymps · 28/08/2008 22:02

Yeah, I saw it, was good wasn't it. Very broody now.

lastboxoftampons · 28/08/2008 22:01

Aw, did anyone else just watch How to look Good Naked? it was a rerun but at the end Gok revisited the woman. Since being on the show, she met a man and was pregnant. She was so adorable and Gok kept referring to her bump as 'our baby' I love him - and she looked amazing!

SesQal · 28/08/2008 21:13

Night tink.
Good luck for tomorrow

tinkistwentyweeksandhasscantom · 28/08/2008 21:09

night everyone

take care cal if you want to cry do.

calsworld · 28/08/2008 20:46

PMSL Diege!

Good luck for your day tomorrow, hope it goes well...

GYo · 28/08/2008 20:43

LOL Diege about DH being in and out...

Enjoy theme park!

OP posts:
Diege · 28/08/2008 20:40

Oh Cals . First chance to get back on after hectic day and I am so sorry. I have some idea of how you're feeling, and yes as others have said the ups and downs are totally normal. At least you can look to the future with some certainty now, rather than that horribole not knowing (little consolation I know). Relax, get pampered, and while it doesn't feel like it now, it does get easier. You have been so strong, and remember we are always here for you xxx
Hello to everyone else - full day at theme park tomorrow [hell], then mum coming to stay until Tues so will be in and out sporadically (as will dh by the looks of things . Night all

calsworld · 28/08/2008 20:40

Oh goodness, thanks guys.

DH is dropping the mutt off at a friends house tonight as we're going away tomorrow, he's just rung to ask if I've startd dinner I'd completely forgotten about food and it hadn't crossed my mind - friend is offering us some chilli for DH to bring home!

Good job I mentioned the drugs, I'd forgotten I had paracetamol at about 6...I was thinking more of the huge dose of morphine I got at hospital.

Perhaps I'll have a small glass when the chilli arrives!

I thought I was being a bit of a wimp but DH said the last time he saw me in that much pain was when I was just before they gave me pethidine when I was in labour with DS...

I think DH is OK, I have asked him a couple of times - he is very strong emotionally, always has been. He just said that he was sad that we wouldn't be having a baby in March, but looked forward to when we would.
