Ski what's my logic for what?

pandora69 · 20/04/2010 20:53

Ski (wave!) Other place when you have the chance, pur-lease.

SilverSky · 20/04/2010 20:59

Gals,

I managed an entire nights sleep without needing to get up to pee.

Result.

Absolute luxury, lets hope now that baby (will have to think of nickname, all suggestions taken on board) is moving up and away from bladder for a bit, pissing in the night should improve. Tho I feel MW is lying to me.

Bitch.

rollerbaby · 20/04/2010 21:39

Silver you are one lucky cah. I had to get up twice last night. Fucksticks.

Laurie I'm also a CBFM fan. Tried OPKs and gave up and after 3 months CBFM worked for us. We got diffed first time using preseed too... which feels like putting ectoplasm up yer fanny. It squelches. But worked for us.

Got a call from scan folk this evening and bloods have brought downs risk down to 1 in 7000 which is pretty good, non?

Skater fanks for Hotmilk tip will investigate tout suite.

Spent entire evening cleaning out wardrobe and underwear drawer out of stuff I will never wear/can't wear. I have approximately 4 items hanging in there now.

SilverSky · 20/04/2010 21:56

Shitting heck moopoo dem dar are good stats man. Nearly 2k better than mine, you must be a fine young thing.

Luckily I didn't clear out my wardrobe like I promised myself I would as I do have some trews that were too big that now fit. Only ishoo is that I am running out of tops.

Still not told work.

Did you know that Dolphins are gay sharks? Uh-huh

rollerbaby · 20/04/2010 22:14

fanks Silver I nearly fell over wiv relief when the woman rang this evening. Dog pooed in crate, so improved my mood somewhat.

HOTMILK bras are the business! Skater please send me a full list of everything you've bought. I need you as my personal shopping consultant please and thank you. I have just bought about 8 bras from nursing bra shop.co.uk in the hope that one might fit my bazookas reasonably well. Excited now that my tits won't have to look like my grans. And their nursing, so big investment yes.

CurlyCasper · 21/04/2010 06:19

morning moo and congrats on the stats! I'd recommend not getting too many new bras at once - the breasts (and rib cage) just keep on growing! I'm on two new ones every six weeks or so at the moment, so not spending a fortune on them. Thankfully I am "earning" M&S vouchers and have yet to spend any cash on them. I might invest in some nice/decent nursing bras once my milk comes in after the birth.

SkaterGrrrrl · 21/04/2010 08:05

Quick! Asos maternity wear sale - lots of sizes available

Honey I bought this which is not only the prettiest bra I have ever owned but sooo comfy. It has about 10 rows of hooks so will grow with me. The lady in the fitting room said to keep it if I outgrow it, as it may fit again after the birth or while feeding. SkaterBoy is facinated by the magic clip that reveals the nipple.

Ordering more online tonight.

Any tips on coping with backache? Waking up with stabbing pains from extra weight on spine!

laurielou · 21/04/2010 08:23

I am a twat.

I went home last night & on PESH advice I got last remaining OPK to shove in the back of the drawer in disgust.

Like a good girl I then separated the box & paper instructions for re-cycling. I thought I'd just take another quick look over the instructions in case it mentioned Clomid. There, in bold with flashing neon lights was the following statement

"The best time to test is between 10am & 8pm. DO NOT test with early morning urine as although your body may be experiencing an LH surge it can take up to 4 hours to register".

I've been testing at 6.02am, 2 mins after alarm goes off & I've stumbled straight into bathroom for first pee of the day.

Twat.

Hope you're all well. Here's some voddy shots & apple danish. Counts as one of your 5 a day.

CurlyCasper · 21/04/2010 08:26

Oh shit lorry! Yes, the best time for the bastard OPKs is lunchtime - which is really convenient when you are at work But not to worry seeing as you are shunning them now.

Thanks for the tip-off skater I'm off for a nosy...

CurlyCasper · 21/04/2010 08:28

And ref the backache - still not found a solution myself - sorry!. I blocked myself into bed with cushions last night, got to sleep fine and woke up at 4am with horrible lower back ache. A during the day my ribs (rear of) are killing me. Tips welcome here too.

(how about heavy drugs and booze, non?)

SkaterGrrrrl · 21/04/2010 08:42

God I miss ibruprofen and lemsip.

CUNextTuesday · 21/04/2010 08:45

I have the highest risk baby Starting to get fretful

SkaterGrrrrl · 21/04/2010 08:49

Question: Is anyone else experiencing a big wave of societal approval, just for being pregnant? Never mind the whole world loving a lover, the whole world and his wife seems to be beaming benignly at me and wishing me luck and offering me seats on the tube.

I find it quite weird as a feminist to be getting so much approval from my parents and extended family for being upduffed (which let's face it was not especially difficult and rather fun) as opposed to say, getting my MA in Philosophy which was difficult.

It makes me wonder how much of my pre-pregnant desire to conceive was genuine & my own - and how much was societal pressure and desire for this approval.

(Also, on the beaming strangers thing, apparently it stops once you actually have a baby or child in tow. Everyone on public transport or in a supermarket loves the idea of motherhood (and a pregnant woman) but not an actual mum with a little one with needs, wind and a healthy set of lungs!)

CurlyCasper · 21/04/2010 08:50

what's happening with Rastus cunty? [concern]

skihorse · 21/04/2010 08:52

okie I just meant wrt not having sex for the first 12 weeks. Is your husband's penis shaped like a hook?

cunty We're all at risk of these baybees coming out... fret not - I believe there are menkuls out there who've ignored labour until there's a head in the gusset. Seriously though, what are you fretting about?

skater Thanks for the asos head's up you shopper you! Last week I made my own lemsips using freshly squeezed lemon, spoonful of honey and a paracetamol. Nom to the nom.

ponymum You live in Yorkshire right? Tell me how the word "bucket" is funny.

skihorse · 21/04/2010 08:55

skater Yes, people smile at me now - the two-faced cunts.

CurlyCasper · 21/04/2010 08:57

People just stare at my belly these days and it pisses me off. Now I know how girls with big buzwams feel.

skihorse · 21/04/2010 09:03

cunty sorry, wasn't clear - what I meant by 'all at risk' was supposed to be a very tongue-in-cheek they're going to come out at some point whether we're ready or not thing. Doh.

OP posts:
CurlyCasper · 21/04/2010 09:11

yes, but has something happened to place you in a high risk delivery situation cuntstar? Hope you and Rastus are actually ok.

SomethingSuitablyWitty · 21/04/2010 09:36

The approval thing is interesting. Of course, no-one can see I am pregnant yet, despite my fairly successful attempts to develop an early bump made purely of carbs and fat, but I find it so amazing when people congratulate me. For example, I went in to the gym this morning (naturally, not to exercise ) but to tell them that body attack and 20KM training are not really on my list of hobbies anymore and that I want out of my horrible binding contract. Well, they were super nice about it for starters. But, what really floored me was the whole 'wow, congratulations, that's wonderful, is it your first' delivered with a warm beam. I was so incredibly touched (obviously I have told almost no-one at this stage so this hasn't happened much yet) that I wanted to cry. Could this be hormones?

Cunty I hope all is well. I actually assumed you just meant that your stats hadn't been so stratospherically high as honey which matters not a bit of course. I hope there is nothing actually wrong

CUNextTuesday · 21/04/2010 09:44

No that's what I did mean - my number is so low and everyone else's is so high. Starting to make me think Bad Thoughts.

Nothing wrong that I know of (thanks for fretting on my behalf though) - are things like Downs likely to have shown up on a 20 week scan because of its characteristic symptoms?

CurlyCasper · 21/04/2010 09:44

witty I hadn't even thought of it like that! Now know what cunty meant by highest risk. And misstuesday, Rastus will be just fine. Your risk factor was good enough not to be referred for amnio etc wasn't it? Please to relax. Although if it's any help, I do still worry. despite my odds being 1 in 11,000, one of my best friends was the one and that nags at the back of my mind. Nonetheless, that is not a good enough reason for serious worry and we should all just be taking it easy.

I am relieved because I had read your post totally wrong and thought that, following a MW appointment or summat, you'd been placed in a high risk birth category (like me even though, for now, there's not really any perceived risk at all)

CurlyCasper · 21/04/2010 09:46

x-post

carrotsarenottheonlyvegetable · 21/04/2010 09:59

cunty I guess you mean your nuchal results? Now then, Mrs, I can't belive YOU of all people are doing a comparison with other results. I mean, my results with LC were 1:50,000 so frankly everyone's seem really high to me (mine included) but then that was a private scan and 6 years ago and maybe things have changed.

But realistically yours was what - one in quite a few hundred? I can't remember - but it's that hugely low risk you need to consider, not the comparison to the rest.

Take a sharp jab in the ribs and stop worrying.

ski Honestly, it's funny. Really it is.

skater I know what you mean. I was always most confused when people said, "well done" after LC was born. Like, going in was easy and coming out I didn't have a choice, and the bit in the middle my body did without much input from me . Never knew how I was supposed to react to that - and yet - have for some reason found myself saying that to other new parents!
