Bonkers Anonymous-Bonkers, Bonked and Bonkers Babies all welcome and there are plenty of positive vibes and babydust for everyone!

Thanks ladies for the advice about the pox - Josh's face is covered in spots whereas his body isn't too bad - still not pus-filled ones though. Got him some piriton this morning as he has been scratching constantly!! He seems ok in himself but I guess it means he can't go to nursery for the early part of next week which means I will have both boys for at least 2 or 3 days by myself....aagh!!

Bless him - he was laid on the baby gym this morning with Sam whilst I was taking photos of them. He was looking in the mirror that dangles down from it and said 'mummy I got spots' and from then, he point blank refused to let me take his photo - vanity at 2.6???

Sam slept through again last night - came to bed with me at 10 and didn't hear a peep out of him till just before 7 Shame Josh ruined the night by getting up at least 6 times

Hope you are all having a good weekend - fingers crossed for Bellie that baby arrives soon!

Hello ladies,

Ceebee poor Josh, hope he isnt too poorly with them !!

Bellie Hopefully not long now

Hope you all have a lovely weekend

Much love

Ceebee - hope Josh is not too bad, Meg got it a few months ago, and apart from the spots there was nothing else wrong with her! Only had 2 pus filled ones!

Piriton liquid helps with the itching.

Hope everyone else is having a good day - thought I had some twinges in the middle of the night but nothing further this morning!!

Just checking in

BSL so sorry for your friend MJIM speaks wisely - just be there for her to talk to as and when she needs to.

Had a lovely day today - all the babies were really well-behaved and just gorgeous (and all the mums were so nice and friendly aswell). Juanitad was lovely and Patrick was so cute We sat around, talked a lot, went to a tapas restaurant for lunch and then shopped...perfect

Unfortunately it would appear that Josh has chicken pox He has suddenly developed spots everywhere today whilst at nursery although none have developed into the lovely pus-filled ones yet Fingers crossed that it is not the pox but it is not looking good! It might explain why he was being so mischeivous last week....in hindsight, he has often been naughty and then turned out to be ill a couple of days later.

Thanks HC Once again your a star ....DH got there, im rather dim when it comes to computers, i can just get by !!!! Gonna have a brew now and some choc/mint ice cream

Much love

Hello all,

BSL, I'm so sorry hun. I must say that I haven't been through this experience with a friend but I can imagine it must be really awful. MJIM's advice is excellent though. This thread is just a God-send at times. Loads of thoughts and hugs to you and your friend hun.

HC, the only reason I knew I was PG was constipation!! I waited to use the free CB Digital one aswell and mine said 3+ weeks - I was thrilled!!

CE, how are you hun? I'm going to get DH to take some bump pics tomorrow so I can parade them on my profile page!! He keeps laughing at me as I can't even do men's shirts up now!!

Dawni, how are you doing today hun. Keeping everything crossed for you for this month!!

Waves to MJIM, Daisy, Bellie and everyone else that I've missed!!

So, this is a TMI Alert!!! But I would really welcome some advice or just some peace of mind from you ladies... even though I've spoken to the midwife, I'd still like some more reassurance....

So, last night DH and I did some BDing for the first time in a month (poor DH decorating every night until the the early hours isn't really condusive to a BD-Fest...) and it was lovely as always. However, about an hour after we'd fallen asleep, I was woken up by stomach cramps, that stretched around to my lower back. They came in waves, every few seconds and were really uncomfortable. But strangely when I stood up to go to the loo, expecting the worst, they stopped!! When I got back into bed and was laying down, they started again and our little girl was kicking around like mad, very low down. I started to worry that she was distressed. Anyway, eventually, I drifted back off to sleep (after two hours of pain!!) and when I woke up, the pain was gone. I called the midwife who said that it sounded like Braxton Hicks contractions that can be brought on by BDing. Has anyone else experienced this? The pains weren't unbearable, just felt like stomach ache almost, like when you've eaten an under-ripe piece of fruit...

Anyway, at least I know the real reason now why they call it "Baby-Dancing" - 'cos our little girl started up an hour after we'd finished our dancing - ha ha -

Any help or advice gratefully received!!

Hi HC-Bellie-mjim-Bluestar-daisy-detox-CE-CeeBee-DawnAS- and anyone ive missed (sorry)!!, this thread moves so fast its hard to keep up !!!!

HC I cant get the hang of FF at all and have'nt a clue how to link it to you, ive tried and failed, i printed off what you told me so i'll get DH to have a go later....

Im still having nagging thoughts that ive already ovulated !! I done an OPK on CD8 which was very faint and since then they've all been negative even though saliva test showed ferning, but todays was'nt as clear as they have been !! I think we'll just carry on BDing every other day but im not going to hold out much hope (again).

D xx

Definately still PG!! Have had some lower back pain today but that is all!

Hi guys,

I'm okay...thanks for your sympathy and please don't worry about me taking anthing the wrong way, Daisy. I had to go back re-read what you wrote and I still thought it was all fine!

Myjob - thank you so much for the advice!! It's not nice that you've been through this with a friend, but I'm very grateful for the help. It's hard to know how to behave, but I will never shy away from letting them talk about their DD! And I know they will be thrilled for us if I do get PG! They have been nagging us!

bluestear - sorry . I've just realised it sounds as if I'm saying that having work gripes while pregnant is relative in some way to losing a child, which is most certainly not how I meant it. Just meant that you shouldn't be hard on yourself for feeling your own grief, as well as your friends. x
