I would demolish a tube of salt and vinegar pringles right now!

commsgirl · 28/08/2013 10:52

This thread just makes me want to eat!

PramQueen1971 · 28/08/2013 10:52

Me and DH are averaging 2 shags a week, so a lot less than usual.

I'm sorry, but I don't understand this foreign language.

PramQueen1971 · 28/08/2013 10:59

Liberuna, yes, I did enjoy it, but afterwards my clitoris and nipples felt like I'd been tortured for my cottage pie recipe. 'Twas my fault, in the throes of passion: 'Suck it!'; 'Squeeze 'em!'; 'Fuckin' 'arder!' etc etc..

PramQueen1971 · 28/08/2013 11:02

Good luck to scannees.

I have woken up looking not only unglamorous but identical to Lizzie Birdsworth from Prisoner Cell Block H. My thatch is improbably dark Sad

Pram we are normally at it like teenagers :)

Although he won't be getting any tonight, argh!!! So annoyed!!! We are getting rid of the car (never use it, and DH can't drive) and its being collected tomorrow. Have been asking since the weekend if DH will wash it, clean it out, empty it of all my shoes/CDs/general tat that's in it. Bear in mind I originally said I'd do it, and he said no he would. Anyway, he's still not done it, and has now arranged to go to his mums this evening and tidy her house because she's too lazy to do it herself, so I'm going to have to settle DS to sleep, then go out and do it all, then make tea, when all I want to do is curl up and snooze! Car is on the road so can't even safely do it during the day with DS's 'help'. Argh!!!!!! Angry

PramQueen1971 · 28/08/2013 11:25

...and you're giving this man sex because....?

Rockchick1984 · 28/08/2013 11:32

He's just always been put upon by his whole family, since we got together things have improved a lot but she knows how to push his buttons and he ends up torn between keeping me happy (more important) or keeping her happy (less important, but she will make his life a misery if he doesn't do what she wants). I almost feel sorry for him being pulled every which way, but then I think he's nearly 40, he should be able to tell his mum that his pregnant wife takes priority!!!

Rockchick1984 · 28/08/2013 11:35

Sorry for ranting, just gets me down at times Blush

PramQueen1971 · 28/08/2013 11:46

Needy bitch (her, not you).

Lottie345 · 28/08/2013 12:02

Crikey that's one dedicated son. Not the most mature thing to do but I would be hugely pissed off and ranting until he'd think he have a quieter life if he just did what I asked. But that's just me. But then I don't have kids (yet) to not row in front of. Oh gawd in going to have
To learn to control my temper!!

pram all that talk of sex led to a dirty dream last night so I think I've got my libido back after his morning :). Had a sex dream about an old woman several weeks back so IMO think that scarred me for about a month... Fucking hormones!

PramQueen1971 · 28/08/2013 12:05

Lottie! How bizarre. Did she stink of piss?

Lottie345 · 28/08/2013 12:08

No - ha ok it was dame judi dench. In a three way with narco Pierre white. No idea where that came from

Rockchick1984 · 28/08/2013 12:21

Lottie think that would be enough to put me off sex for a month Grin I had a dirty dream about James Franco the other day, woke up in a very good mood that day Wink

Feel bad for bitching now, he's coming straight home after work to help me - I dread to think what he's got to put up with from her now!!!

LyraSilvertongue · 28/08/2013 12:27

Just got my downs risk back. 1:370. I think this is ok. They say I'm "screen negative". Results based on scan and blood test.

DP's blood also ok. Because I'm a carrier of sickle cell trait, they needed to make sure he was clear of that and thallasaemia or we would have a one in four risk of a baby with a serious blood disorder. Thankfully all clear.

FoxMulder · 28/08/2013 13:12

Good news Lyra!

TotalShock · 28/08/2013 13:12

Just got back from my scan. There is actually a baby in there!

Laid on his/her tummy all the time and refused to move, just a squirm at being poked. DH said he/she is like me already - camera shy and stubborn!

Measuring a week ahead at 13+4 and my EDD is now the 1st of March - which is my birthday!

Hope to hear more good news soon xx

rescoonetwothree · 28/08/2013 13:21

good news! good luck to others having their scans today!

managed 12/13 weeks without proper morning sickness, NOT TODAY.

rescoonetwothree · 28/08/2013 13:22

also total I'm due on bday too!

PramQueen1971 · 28/08/2013 13:23

Lyra & Total, lovely positive news.

Rocky, listen, no-one thinks your husband is a scoundrel just because of this particular trait. I love that we can all come here and be as brutal and scathing of our rellies as we like without them being being judged as incorrigible twats. We know your marriage is a happy one Smile

I can't wait for tonight: my nieces of 14 & 18 are coming to stay for a couple of nights and they are just ace.

LyraSilvertongue · 28/08/2013 13:35

I find it strange how so many if us are having our dates brought forward. Surely we can't all be wrong about our LMP. I'm more and more inclined to trust my own dates.

rescoonetwothree · 28/08/2013 13:49

i know what you mean lyra - they told me at first i was due on 20th march and told me i was making it up about their dates being impossible... and would you believe it i was right...

PramQueen1971 · 28/08/2013 13:51

I'll be interested to see if they try to alter my dates tomorrow at the scan as I had IVF and therefore know the date my baby was fertilised in a lab

April13 · 28/08/2013 14:20

Scan went well and dates match (well out by a day) so edd is 6th March x

Midwife had me flipping from
Side to Side and coughing to move baby (it's head was in my arse), quite funny yogi could see it moving etc, then after a few moments it would go back to the way it had been!

Delighted x

NoMaybeAboutIt · 28/08/2013 14:33

Brilliant scan news ladies!!
