My mum calls it the "unacceptable behaviour" step as she is not keen on the N word! I am not keen on it either but it gets called the naughty step anyway.

PollyPoo · 20/04/2010 10:28

Hehe Lou, will you sit me on the naughty step too?!

Well done on the 10min SWI - 10 mins is about my limit tbh. I really really hope this is your month Lou. Sending you lots of positive thoughts.

Fanks Ice I promise to reign in the menkullness now. Honest!

Icedlemonmuffin · 20/04/2010 10:05

What a relief Polly and we all would have reacted the same, just as you cannot have tmi on these threads you can't have too much over reacting either!

Woo hoo to an Xmas baby!

Pollypocket if I hear that you go near a thermometer or piss stick again you will be in detention and made to drink Hooch and snakebite (all with the booze taken out) until you are sorry! That or you will have lines (did I mention my mum was a teacher).

You will all be impressed managed to SWI (including foreplay) in 10 mins last night as was in a rush to get out the house and am all fertile. Might even get one in today.

How long does it take for the wank results to come back? TH had the last wank 10 days ago and we are still waiting. We need to book an appointment with the doc to get referred to fertility clinic so they can do what ever it is they do.

Met someone who had IVF and paid £16k for the privilege of her baby. She could afford it though!

PollyPoo · 20/04/2010 08:03

Morning fellow bus whores! I am feeling like a major twat for panicking so much yesterday. I have done temp (for the last time!) and it is the highest it's ever been. So I will now step away from the thermometer and the piss sticks and let nature take it's course.

Right, come on you lot - I need a duff buddy!

Fairygodmother1 · 19/04/2010 16:59

Iced I'm almost 30 so yeah we did have the same teenage years. What about Two Dogs alcoholic lemonade??? Oh & snakebites!

Pol keep positive hon. Got all my fingers crossed. Can't comment on temp as I don't do it!

xx

Loujalou · 19/04/2010 13:21

Pol I don't want to read and run. I have studied the FF charts in the past / read many a thread on this. Temps can go up and down during pregnancy. Also as long as you have still got a line its a good thing. Maybe its worth going to the doctors for a blood test.

Got all my fingers and toes crossed its just a blip.

Icedlemonmuffin · 19/04/2010 10:16

Polly sorry that your feeling so crap but fingers crossed and try and stay positive ( easier said than done I know) .

UmBongo · 19/04/2010 09:57

Well the line is still there Polly, Good luck and don't wear yourself out panicking - Easy to say I know.

As for me, I am on day 33-34 ish I think, no rtd yet and daren't even poas cos I KNOW it will be a bfn as only swi once. Just want to be somewhere in the middle of next week. Meet you there Polly and then we won't have to do all the minutes in between. Cup of tea and a to you.

PollyPoo · 19/04/2010 08:33

Morning. I think this baybee does not want to be born at christmas

Had a temp drop this morning, lowest of the triphasic - in fact I think it back in the biphasic realm ifkwim.

www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2b93a5

Thought I'd POAS to stop myself worrying, hoping for a big fat line but have the palest crappest ever.

I am panicking like an a menkul. This is all my fault for being so smug about SIL. That, and helping Jane drag a boat up the slipway yesterday.

I've still got the progesterone pessaries in my drawer, do you think it will do any good to start using them? I guess if the pregnancy hormone is dropping then progesterone won't do much anyway. Oh fuck I don't know what to do. I am all shaky.

Icedlemonmuffin · 18/04/2010 20:46

Fairy I'm 32 not far off 33. I spent most of my teenage years at 21s (classy manchester establisment) and fondly remember fun times with Blastaway! Well I think I remember bits, comes and goes in scary flashbacks.

Umbongo Dazza sounds familiar, did he have his trackie bottoms tucked into his socks and White trainees and a big gold chain?
And sorry for calling you umbonged before ,think I've got RSI typing on I pod thingy.

OP posts:
Loujalou · 18/04/2010 20:15

Blastaway Diamond White and Castaway. That was foul but drunk it to get pissed cheap. Classy.

UmBongo · 18/04/2010 20:10

Ow my belly hurts! Belly button pierced and tat of rose and thorns drawn round belly button - classy - especially as Dazza kept me warm too last night, so when I have a big fat preggy belly both tat and piercing will look really good!

(yep remember hooch too! and Taboo and lemonade - classy chick me! Not forgetting good old diamond white cider (I think thats what it was called, can't remember really, drank too much of it!))

Fairygodmother1 · 18/04/2010 20:05

If you don't mind me ask Iced, how old are you? Sounds like we had the same teenage years!

My knees have friction burns so I hope it's worth it - I'm vegging out in my velour trackies tonight. The roundabout was a good spin, as was the swings!!!

Icedlemonmuffin · 18/04/2010 19:34

Lol Fairy only one delivery of white goods?! How are your knees after last night? Bit sore and muddy? Did Dazza deliver the White goods on the roundabout ( that would make you totally chavtastic). Will you have enough for both nips with your giro ?

Umbongo have you got your tat yet?

Lou I feel really old thinking about hooch (drank through a straw) and 20/20 which I think was really drain cleaner because it burnt the back off your throat. Plus it brings back scary memories of knee high pantent black lace up boots, oh god the shame.

OP posts:
Fairygodmother1 · 18/04/2010 17:54

Lou that was the first thing i ever got drunk on at 15 - plied by an 18 year old barman on a caravan site! lol.

Iced Ohh 20/20!!! Nope no blue sick with Hooch - it was flurenecnt yellow sick instead!

Yeah no thermals - mini jean skirt, dirty pink vest top & hoodie. Used a lighter for warmth until Dazza (how's that for a chav name) kept me warm! Lets hope his delivery of white goods worked!

getting my nips pierced when giro comes through.

lol

Icedlemonmuffin · 18/04/2010 15:24

Oh god Lou I loved hooch and 20/20 plus the smell of Africa lynx and I'm 15 18 again!!

Are Fairy and Umbonged still in the park, maybe their White stilletos got stuck in the mud or their lady bits got frostbite!

OP posts:
Loujalou · 18/04/2010 09:38

I don't think Fairy or Umbungo has thermals on just a short mini-skirt with no knickers. For easy access just in case one of their chavy lovers come along.

Whatever happened to Hooch? I suppose you wouldn't get blue sick with that. That was my choice of tipple in my teenage underage drinking years.

Icedlemonmuffin · 17/04/2010 22:46

UmBongo shouldn't you be in the park sickin up blue sick (result off drinking blue wkd) on the roundabout and getting off with lads in baseball caps and trainees! Like the idea of belly button ring but it was bogof so you got nipple pierced as well!!!

Dd heard the name jeffrey on the train when she was about 2, said that she was a jeffrey before she lived with us and she liked being called jeffrey. So for about six months she didn't really answer to any other name, which resulted in alot off odd moments and weird looks. Imagine shouting jeffrey and round the corners comes a cute blond girl in pink. Even know I sometimes call dd jeffrey and she answers.

Hope you and Fairy have got your thermals on it's cold in the park!!

OP posts:
UmBongo · 17/04/2010 21:57

Iced Why does your daughter answer to Jeffrey? I call ds all sorts of things, but not yet called him Mabel!

UmBongo · 17/04/2010 21:55

I'm on my way FG1, i'll go to the shpar and pick up some more wkd on the way - shee you there, hope we pull! Jusht got to get the trowel to get the resht of me make-up on.

(I hope your dh is enjoying his glimpse into redneck culture!!!!!)

Fairygodmother1 · 17/04/2010 19:50

Der - it's saturday night!!!! Those vodka & cokes have already gone to my head lol !!!

Fairygodmother1 · 17/04/2010 19:46

YAY!!!!!! POLLY!!!!!!! So pleased for you!

I had lots of baby cuddles today! Wasn't jealous but it felt so natural, carried her around the park as her siblings played with DH on the swings. made me feel so much more positive than I've been recently!

Lou we've managed to rake up 3 times this month & Pol only did it twice so there's a possible chance we might give the xmas baby a friend.

Um yes you can have an infected lump on your belly too. Have you stocked up on you stained/faded vest tops?As it's friday we need the vodka & cokes in cans & meet you down the local park - could be our lucky night!

(BTW DH just went round the local shop & heard a woman speaking to cashier saying she's just got married but didn't need to change her surname as it's the same as her new hubby

PollyPoo · 17/04/2010 10:03

Thanks Lou and Bongo. I can't stop grinning!

Exactly - if I can do it anyone can! With a very short LP and having hormone levels off the scale, and being told I'd never get pregnant with levels like that, I have proved them wrong. Just have to stay duffed now! Not going to cancel the appt with the fertility clinic yet tho (19 May) as I don't want to tempt fate.

I swear it is all down to the chinese herbs and the acupuncture. And the four million supplements I've been taking every day of course.

Loujalou · 17/04/2010 09:41

Woohoo to nekkid dancing. That is great news. See you had a rubbish month with Boo being ill you probably weren't so stressed about the baby making so you managed to make a Xmas baby. Holly for a girl and Joseph for a boy

Well if Pol can do it then the rest of us need to get in there for baby Holly to play with otherwise she will be all alone.
