Welcome emptyshell sorry about your MC. TTC realy is crap.

Lia i had a look on you tube, your daughter has a lovely voice and didn't look nervous at all, i would have been!

Congrats to Umbongo and iced, that is amazing, it really can happen, i'm on cd28 would be nice to join you and win a baby this month, i doubt i'm that lucky.

Fairy there are plenty of people with higher bmi's that still get pregnant, i'm sure you will be one of them, can the doctor not give you something to help?

Icedlemonmuffin · 28/05/2010 22:04

Fairy that is toally crap this bmi stuff is total rubbish

I do feel slightly sick and can't face chocolate of any kind, which is a bit crap, as I love choccie.

fairy that's shit, do you wanna do a virtual diet club? I seriously need to lose 2 and half stone.

lou you are so preggers. Here's a whiote lightening.

bongo and muffin bring on the nausea

Loujalou · 28/05/2010 21:37

Fairy that is really really crap. Do you think a stretching machine might work? Is there something they can put you on for PCOS metaformin or am I being crap now?

(Passes over extra-strength but low cal white lightening).

Am convinced I am not pregnant this month. Usually I have some fake symptoms but nada this month....

UmBongo · 28/05/2010 21:19

Cross posts - Oh FairyG I'm so sorry to hear that news, hug on its way, and hooch. All you have to do is grow a few inches (up not out) and then your bmi will be ok!

Garfield once he say - I'm not overweight I am undertall.

(Sorry to be flippant - its how I cope with real life when it intrudes into my life!)

UmBongo · 28/05/2010 21:14

Wow Lemon Huge congratulations on your two lines! I agree with you, after all this time I can't believe its a p yet, I like your idea of 2 lines!

Come on Lou all the more the merrier - and Tequila, hows the shagathon going?

I like the concept of a mini muffin - it will go with my muffin top! (Hopefully to grow into a huge pumpkin top!) Ds got known as mini bean.

Thanks for letting me hang around - I feel at home in the park.

Fairygodmother1 · 28/05/2010 21:14

OMG!!! Congrats to you & I've gotta say if you two are the ones that drink while preg in the short white skirts, I'm gonna be the one who doesn't have kids. We've been turned down for IVF because according to them I have a BMI of 34 (I made it 32) but I have to be 29 before they see me. The problem is with my PCOS I find it majorly difficult to lose wight! I'm so nngry & upset!!!!

But am so pleased for you!

Loujalou · 28/05/2010 08:45

Bet than mini-Jeffrey. Though if its a boy you could call him that.

Argh I should be working....

Icedlemonmuffin · 28/05/2010 08:38

Fingers crossed for you Lou a hat trick would be nice.

As for mad fainting fit that was on cd15 and got two lines on cd24, after gp said I was normal and he didn't do preg or hormone test, so not sure if it was related. It was dhs idea to do test and I told him it would be a waste of time but after massive sobbing session because he left his cup on the side I did it and there was two lines!

This is our home and I like it here

Mini muffin that is such a cute name.

Loujalou · 28/05/2010 08:16

Anyways TheLemonone this fainting business was that related to the mini-muffin growing in your tummy?

AlsoEmptyshell did like your analogy. We have a bit of a problem as TH has tight foreskin and he only really enjoys sex with a condom. The joys of it all....

Loujalou · 28/05/2010 08:06

Well if enough of us get duffed we could set up an ante-natal thread. But then again our natural home is probably here.....

Anyway day 25 in the Louja house and no sign of anything. Pregnancy or RTD. Poked my boobs and nothing. Still early days. Its good though as when I started on this TTC my periods were every 25/26 days with spotting even earlier so no wonder a baby didn't want to stick around. Anyway tomorrow I will probably be in the pit as that is when I usually get the first bit of spotting.

Icedlemonmuffin · 28/05/2010 07:08

Forgot to say UmBongo I've still not lost the baby wait from seven years ago lol

Icedlemonmuffin · 28/05/2010 07:05

Thanks Lia and Lou I am in complete denial about the whole thing and when dh says the p word I ignore him. It's just two lines at the min, denial is the only way to stop me completely freaking out!

Dh did comment that I will need sedating for the scan if I carry on like this!

I'm not going anywhere other threads are too mushy for me and I'm not p just two lines so pass the hooch quick !

Loujalou · 28/05/2010 06:03

Ohmygod sex does work congratulations to the two of you. lemon you are a sly one though after what you went through I can understand the hesitancy if that's the word. Please stay both of you. Am sure no one on the antenatal boards will bedrinking hooch and appearing in Jeremy Kyle.

Ps it almost brought a tear to my eye. Either that or its too early.

(Passes round the wkd)

liahgen66 · 27/05/2010 22:50

lemon how could you

wow 2 BFP's in 24 hrs,

congratualtions ladies

Wishing you a very boring 8 mths.

Icedlemonmuffin · 27/05/2010 22:44

Congrats UmBongo and please stay, you can be the preggers girl who still drinks and wears really short skirts!

Plus I have a confession to make and I hope you all forgive me

I got two lines last week but even after four tests I am too scared to believe it and I keep thinking rtd will turn up any minute! Phew I said it .

OP posts:
UmBongo · 27/05/2010 22:34

Good luck for the shagathon Tequila - could be interesting tho with dh's mates there too!!! Maybe if they all join in you are bound to win a baybee! Dazza and Bazza will get jealous though!

Well, I can officially confirm that shagging is one of the causes of baybees. I did another test, and didn't get involved in my book this time, (sorry to those who got pissed off with me the other day for being so crap!) so looked at it all through the allotted time and ......... 2 lines. One fainter than the other, but definately there! Still don't believe it, but am on deh 38 in the Um Bongo house, and no sign of rtd, and boobs slightly sore if I think about it, but no other symptom, apart from a probably imaginary hunger! (come to think - I think I am always like that which is why I haven't lost my 2 st baby weight from ds who is now 3!)

When I have a scan in a few months time I may actually believe it!

Please can I hang aroung for a bit?

tequilacream · 27/05/2010 20:20

We're due to start this cycle's shagathon tomorrow, but not sure if we will as dh's mates are coming down to network the house...
Cheers ladies! [drinking nice shandy]

Loujalou · 27/05/2010 08:43

Yay to Fairys anniversary shag!

Fairygodmother1 · 26/05/2010 18:55

Hi all - shag watch - #1 for me last night!!!!! yay!!!! Well it has been like a month off for me so lady bits are less sore!

Pol nice to see you back! Time is certainly flying by! Whoops on the Xmas baby - but all worth it!

Welcome emptyshell we know how you are feeling!

Iced I'll quite happily stomp off with you! I thin thats just bloody greedy having 2 less than a year apart! She obviously jumped my place in the baby buying queue!!!

Lia your daughter was fab!!!! Go her!

xx

UmBongo · 26/05/2010 15:41

Welcome Emptyshell and HELLLoooooo PollyPoooo Thankyou for popping by the park Polly, and showing your pictures. You have really cheered me up as my line was just the same as yours!! I did an ebay cheapy this morning and I could save me the effort of photographing it and just paste your picture! BUT I was a bit late looking at it, it didn't show up at first and I stared looked at it for a minute and then went back to my book, and looked again after 15 mins. (Sorry, but just got to the whodunnit bit in my book!) SOOOOO still none the wiser other that rtd still not present and now on day 37.

Lia I am really sorry but I can't do 4 hours without a pee unless I am asleep! My faint line last time happened when rtd was late. I don't bother to test otherwise, or I would have been totally skint for 2 years!

Polly, you should definitely have a quiet christmas day, they never show up on their due dates! Should be able to have a drink for new year tho if you are not late!

liahgen66 · 26/05/2010 14:11

Hi Polly, glad to hear things are good for you, it always seems to fly by when it's someone else isn't it?

You didn't miss anything, was a national talent ompetition that her dance school entered her in, she didn't win but was up against college students that have been training for it all year, dd had a bout a months notice and is only just 15. I think she's got a lovely voice, she was placed though and so got something.

keeping fingers crossed for bongo

Icedlemonmuffin · 26/05/2010 11:23

Welcome Emptyshell and welcome back Polly Im with you on the puking but mine is at the sight of cock lol. Can't believe Jesus/Mary is nearly ten weeks that seems to have gone so quick. You better do your Xmas shopping early though seeing as you will be busy.

Bongo have you poas today or are you waiting a few days?

It's gone really cold today and I want the sun back!

Bloody mum at school is thirty weeks gone and her other baby isn't even one! Not fair (lemon stomps off to finish ironing)

Loujalou funnily my husband actually suggested having a whizz in a tub and the turkey baster himself last night!

Doesn't help when he keeps losing... ahem... resolve... so shagging is constantly interrupted by commercial breaks while the rocket resumes the vertical position.

Loujalou · 26/05/2010 10:50

Here's a bitch slap for complaining.
