awww annie what a day you've had, hope your 2 little ones are both ok, and grrr to the negligent (sp?) pub manager

neeko i was thinking perhaps a little test on saturday/sunday if no af?

my mouth tastes like sellotape... or the gum from those cheap crappy envelopes, my back aches so much, and i still have funny crampy pains along with sore nipples and i seem to be very aware of my belly today, but that is coincidence no? also df keeps coming up behind me and putting his hands on my belly, when i ask why he just says no reason and walks off happily i am making all this up in my head aren't i because i want it so much?

MLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! x 1000. So over the bloody moon and relieved for you (thanks for txting me Neeks as I couldn't get back on earlier). A beating heart, the most amazing thing to see ever (until you meet them in person ). Let this be the first of many happy milestones and we wil be here hand holding the whole way lady!

Vjay did your DH make it home? He was welcome to stay although would have had to top and tailed it with my DH who is still 'in situ' in the guest room

Neeko - love the 'puggled cuddles' reference your DH shoudl copyright it! We have alot of them round our way, just too cute for words Agree with your opinion on VBAC DH on last nights 'one born' - I could have throttled him or at least chucked his Dan Brown book at him . Hope he was sitting cringing watching it last night. Well done her for getting her VBAC though and had a wee cry at the other Mum who got to take Jack home...

Curly I'm also still in big pants to avoid chaffing of section scar but have lost 2.5 stones of the 3 I put on. Tummy and thighs need serious toning but hell that can wait a few months under all these winter layers

LBM - other conception aids are: give up caffeine, acupuncture!!! (worked for me and MLS), eat eggs (protein v. good for conceiving), lots of water, oh and regular shagging

Off downstairs for part two of CSI trilogy x

Thanks Sabs-im ok thanks,just very tired now and have headache caiused by stress probably.

anniebigpants · 24/02/2010 20:35

lbm- i took 75mg Aspirin daily as soon as i got my BFP. Same as sabs i kept my legs in air after bd'ing for about 10 mins or so.

Sabs1981 · 24/02/2010 20:34

Oh annie poor DS1 and DS2

Hope you're OK too

anniebigpants · 24/02/2010 20:33

Apologies for typos.

Sabs1981 · 24/02/2010 20:32

lbm now dont laugh but when we conceived Saara I always used to stick my legs in the air after bd'ing! I'm convinced that helped the swimmers! I also took a supplement made by the folks that made pregnacare, called pregnacare conception and I got pregnant the first month of trying

HTH

mls-I am over the moon for you honey! A tingle went down my spine when i read Neekos post saying 'MLS is really pregnant!'

Just on quickly, sorry no time for individual posts, had hectic day today. Had E to Drs has he is refusing his feeds during the day and will only feed when he is sleepy-ie during the night, doc said he has viral infection and has blisters in his mouth the poor darling, he advised i rub Bonjela on them a few minutes before feeding. He has slept quite a lot for him today, but still went down to bed fine.

I got him weighed today, and weirdly he is excactly the same weight as DS1 was at the same age-15lb 2oz-the little chubster.
Ive also had to visit A&E with DS1 this afternoon, DH had day off today, so we decided to go to a local family friendly pub for our lunch, whilst there Ds wanted the toilet so his daddy took him. Poor mite was stood there answering the call of nature when 2 tiles fell off the wall above DS and smashed on his head cutting it open!! DH come out of toilet with a screaming DS with blood running down his neck. We got the manager over who was veery apologetic-obviously, he filled the incident book in then too DS straight to hospital and were seen immediately. Thankfully no stitches, he just as a egg shaped lump and had a headache until the Calpol kicked in.
I am absolutely livid though, and made my feelings known to the pub manager, as where the tiles had come off,it was pretty obvious that some had come off earlier as there were tile shaped grout patches just along from the tiles that had fallen on DS.
Im sleeping with DS tonight just to keep an eye on him, even though he's his normal checcky self tonight.

Now, while we wait for a fuller update from the estatic MLS, can any one remind me of the things that help conception - i have a friend who has had 2 MC's and is keen to be pregnant again. I remembered grapefruit juice and brazil nuts, what else should she do?

Her doctor has told her to take aspirn once she is pregnant. Any advice would be gratefully recieved

Thank you!
