The autumn wagon is rolling: take your seats and fasten your belts if you dont want to fall off!!

[GiraffeYoga]

Here you go!

Lol at your shoe honk TINKS . I'm not sure what I do as when new shoes are needed I get the feet measured and they always seem to have gone up a whole size. I know that they build in growing room to clarks' shoes, but if I knew they were half a size too small I would be tempted to buy the next size up without waiting. Is that enough convincing for a shopping trip?
Rugby/SES I have just joined a gym and am really enjoying it. I do classes mainly as I need the motivation to keep going. I haven't lost much weight (could do with dropping a stone) though am technically just within the acceptable weight for height. Davina dvd is fab btw (have them all); highly recommend!
Wow GRUFF sounds like you've been throguh the mill house wise. Have are you feeling now the birth is getting nearer?
SORKY wow go girl!!! Good for you - you'll have to post a picture
Feel ok today - had been worried that boobs not as sore, but they've got progressively so as the day's gone on. Horrible metallic saliva too.
Right, bed beckons. I have a 5.45am start tomorrow - I feel like crying just thinking about it!
Love to all x

Morning

Hoooray for posts on the wagon!!!!

Rugby 5lbs in 2 wks is fab wt loss! And hooray for TTC in may :)

Hi Gruff!! nice to "see you" Glad things are progressing with the flat- I think your exchange will require a very large HONK! when it happens :)

Tink- re shoes I think I try not to buy for half sizes as they are so ££££ but would if I had to.

Ses- trainer sounds good fun- you really are a wonder woman- I dont know how you squeeze it in

Diege- you too, how do you find time to get to the gym??? I am in awe of you two!

Bumps I hope you are ok today! :)

Shopping yesterday was good. Did quite well for bits I need. Tink- you'd be very proud. :)

Diege- meant to say Hooray for symptoms :)

luv

cheers ladies

OM(F'ing)G!!!!!

How have i missed all this???!!!!

2 Honks???
Bumps- Congrats!! Dont know what mat clothes size you'll be? but in a matter of weeks now i'll have a good amount of size 14 mat stuff needing a new home?

Diege- Wuhoo on no5!!! How exciting!! I'm feeling V.jealous indeed!! which sounds very strange!! Also need to try and meet up at underwater st again soon... DH is off the weekend 19th-20th feb and we were considering a trip if you could make it?...

As for me... will be 33wks tomorrow, but had some very thick clear jelly-like clumps this morning... look like a show without the bloody bit to it... gonna hold tight for now but watch this space!! I may be bump free sooner than expected.

DD2 has been ill too :( S&D all yesterday, still having very bad D this morning... poor thing.

Ses, have you tested this morning?

Tinks I get whole size up in shoes.

G'raffy I do hope you got some delicious things in your shop. I've forgotten what it's like to go shopping on my own

Star I'd eBay the tickets, go for it!
7 weeks left Gruff...WOW! where has that time gone?

Rugby I highly recommend the 30 day shred.

Only 20 minutes a day, looks dead easy, but you'll want to die about 10 mins in

Will kill for 4-5 days then bingo, no more soreness and looking thinner very quickly. Very quick results!!

Ses I've looked at your chart again.....

I think your temp on cd14 has confused FF. It's erroneous. It's created a coverline, which is artificially low.

Your other coverline's are all drawn at 36.50, but that temp has caused it to be drawn lower. Combined with the EWCM signs it's given you a false O (imo)

Looking at the other signs on your chart like O pain, peak fertility marker etc I think you O'd on the evening of cd 13 maybe morning of cd14 and therefore are actually well-timed this month with the sex.

If I'm right, then I think your temp dip on cd21 is rather likely to be implantation and you are actually 11dpo today with another good high temp.

Your LP looks like 12 days long which means you would (under my calculations) be due tomorrow. That temp is quite high still though

I'd test!!!!

morning everone

I went for my training induction yesterday and have started my diploma in health and social care. I am going to text my tutor when I have had dating scan to ask if I can push the assignments so I finish before I go on maternity as she set 12 months finish date.

ok so the doubts have set in. Now that i am blistfully happy to be pg and very excited I am now worried something is wrong. I have no symptoms at all. Boobs look and feel the same as always, I have no sickness, no tiredness nada..

the next two weeks are going to be so long until my scan. We have decided that we will tell everyone after my scan just incase.

Ses sorky is the cycle expert so test test test !!

Cant thank you for the offer I may very well take you up on that offer as I have nothing at all x

ps sorky what is thunking it sounds like fun

Also

sorry to be a pest but need some advice.

DD has woken up two nights on the trot crying her heart out that her bits hurt. She is litterally holding her herself and when I lay her down she lifts her hips up saying it hurts inside. I have looked and can see nothing do you think it could be growing pains? She is fine during the day and when she goes to the toilet there is no pain.. She also wet the bed last night for the first time in a year.. dont know if it is related.. what do you think? GP or see how it goes?

is she poo'ing Bumps? Constipated perhaps?

she is pooing fine sorky, and isn't crying when she wee's so dont think she has a urine infection, do girls get growing pains in their bits?

BUMPS I have had this very same thing with dd1 and it turned out to be thread worms (hence why it was at night that she seemed to be in so much pain) Awful though it sounds, the nurse told us they do tend to 'migrate', hence the sore bits. Very easy to treat though.
On the pregnancy-front it may well be too early to get symptoms? Are you thinking you're about 7 weeks?
CANT!! Hello! On the underwater front do you mean end of march, not feb? Would be great to meet up again, dd3 is always asking after B. Exciting abouty show, though as you it could be weeks even after one.
SORKY I am very impressed with your chart reading skills and I sort of follow So testing may well be imminent SES!
Off for a health and safety meeting now back later!

Re shoes
I guess my girls feet never grow and I get them measured 4 mnthly
Will get them summer shoes beg of may and winter shoes beg of sept
Of oct will get them the shoes in what size they r

Diege- yep, i meant march (blame it on pg brain- i actually forgot my own name last hosp app!! )... looking at hopefully the 19th, getting an early-ish train (8.30ish) to get into liverpool around 10am...

Bumps- i'm more than happy for you to have the mat clothes- it's not like i've paid for them myself so i'm not bothered about giving them away, though i did look through and most of what i have is actually a size 16 as i sold some of the 14's that i'd 'outgrown' a few weeks back... or like i should have a need for them in the future... Some of the 16 tops are small fitting tho, so small that they are up at my belly button now, so they are much more like a 14. But, wait till after you're scan, and just let me know either way. I can stick em in the post as soon as i dont need them. :)

DD2 has still been ill today, still had a fair few bad nappies from her this morning, then she started being sick around 1pm... feel so sorry for her, but there's not a lot i can do other than clean her up... :(

WORMS............... no ..........

I am enlisting dp's help and am going to check at 10 o clock tonight with a torch...

ewwwwww

double ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

I hope it isn't, but will report back in the morning after bum inspections have been down.

sorry meant to say thank you cant will let you know and sorry dd2 is poorly... ohhhhh early baby prehaps on its way?

Sorky - I completely agree with your theory on my chart! Had a FR lying around at home so tested when I got home this evening. BFN and then when I wiped, brown spotting and now cramps :( :(
(I still agree with your theory though!)

What I really want is a huge box of chocolates and to pig out but I'm being good. Weighed in today and weight is exactly the same as last week I'm trying to convince myself that that's probably due to the time of the month

Soooo fed up and to top it off, DS slapped me round the face at bedtime as I wouldn't read his book with him for a 4th time :(

Cant - keep us posted!

Bumps - poor DD! May be worth checking for threadworm. (They do look like little thin threads in the poo). Does it seem to be more back passage pain or is she not clear? If she's still suffering tonight, I'd try and take her to GP tomorrow as otherwise you'll be waiting all weekend.
Also, pleased you're now feeling excited about your BFP :)

Diege - hope you didn't fall asleep in your H&S meeting!

Giraffe - I'm not wonder woman at all as my failure at weight loss and failure to get pg shows

Hello everyone else.... I promise not to wallow so much soon!

Hello Bumps, x-posted! Hope the poo examination goes ok!

Arghh sorry about af SES . I'd be tempted to have a small box of chocolates though, and then start again tomorrow - I admire your restraint!
BUMPS, when we went to the Gp with dd1 she said just give her the worming tabs anyway (ie. no need to do an examination - not always relaible) as they don't do any harm unless they've had them 2 weeks or less previously. Day after, dd1's 'itchies' were gone anyway, and touch wood they've not been back!
CANT, I'll check my diary for the 19th - only thing would be that it's my dad's 60th on the 20th, so will depend if party is a sat or sun.
All ok here - fretting about my history of short luteal phase and imagining every cramp is bad news...if I can just get to 8 weeks or so they'll give me a scan at the epu, so am trying to chill!

Thanks Diege! I have no chococlate in the house and will NOT go out and get any! DH decided he wanted curry take-away tonight and I even refused to join him and have had soup and toast. If I'm not pg, I really need to focus on getting fit and losing weight.

I've got everything crossed for you with this pg! I'm sure the next few weeks will be worrying even if all seems fine. Maybe accept that you're going to be feeling this way, take it a day at a time and you'll be at 8wks very soon. (I know it's easier for me to type that than to put it into practice!)

Oh poo! Ses

Thinking sticky thoughts for you Diege xx

Hope it's not threadworms Bumps, the washing will be bloody mountainous!

Evening all

Cant - sorry for DD2 being poorly, GC had really high temps and coughing up mucous in the night so we had a few disturbed nights. Seems to be ok now though except for a cough. Hope DD2 is better soon!

Diege - Health and Safety meeting sounds like riveting stuff I think you asked how I feel about impending birth. Well I am a bit nervous about csection although my EMCS was really not that bad. I am not looking forward to leaving GC for two days either, as I have only left him once over night when he was about 10 months old and that was with DH. My sister and Mum are coming down to look after him while I am in hospital.

Above all, if we can just be settled in a house, it will be a huge weight off my mind! In good enough time.

Tink - re shoes, I keep an eye on his fitting, as soon as it looks like they are getting too small, I take him in and get them measured. If he's grown then I buy the size he is then, regardless of what size he is.

Bumps - I hope your DD is better now?

Sorky - boob job - wow! I'd quite like a boob reduction!I'm hoping a second baby will do the trick I agree your analysis of Ses's chart sounds very promising. I am keeping everything crossed SES :)

Hello to anyone I have missed. I am struggling to stay awake here, but know as soon as I get into bed baby will be wriggly and I wont get comfy and won't get to sleep so may aswell not bother. Plus DH is due back from food shopping soon so I am eagerly awaiting bedtime snacks

Morning all anyone?
