Lou - you were too late!!! I think ertd just blinkin' got me as I was leaving home.

Tmi, but was a bit of pink pant snot, so need to check in a bit.

I had Boots own tests, and I thought they were pretty pants (oooh I'm so fuuunnnny!!). The control line was lovely and clear, but the bfn line was a bit faint compared to that. Would def spend the extra £2 or £3 for FR or CB.

Feel really sick though.....bleurgh!

NOTHEROLDIE · 09/08/2010 10:14

Well PANTS I wouldnt give up hope yet...

Sickness , a good sign, tho not a nice one.
Keep us posted.

We're on 2 SWI so far, POA(ov)S day today. I hope I OV this month, all that jiggery pokery with no eggs is pointless . Tho DH is having the time of his life! Grin

Hope everyone had a good weekend. x

Loujalou · 09/08/2010 11:53

Loujalou · 09/08/2010 13:18

Sorry harassed :( bloody ERTD

I think mine is on it's way as well, 3 days early FFS Confused - had a bit of pink pant snot this morning as well. Nothing yet so far but ERTD usually starts like this.

Bollox bollox bollox.

Loujalou · 09/08/2010 18:12

Don't you mean Bastard ERTD? Surely that is a better description!

Mother nature should know that you put out enough to win a babyyyyyyyy this month Biccie. What is she playing at?

Fairygodmother1 · 09/08/2010 20:23

Tell you what, if it was a gamble in a casino I think we'd go home skint!!!

No bloody fair! Angry

NOTHEROLDIE · 09/08/2010 21:29

I cant believe 8 or 9 shagaroos just aren't enough to win a baby. Hmm

I reckon its me rotten eggs. :(

I dunno bout you Biccie but another month of trying to outdo each other in the shag stakes and STILL NOT GET UP THE DUFF isnt inspiring at all.

But hey-ho I'll still keep at it. Pre-seed is the order of the day.

harassedinherpants · 10/08/2010 09:29

Oh bugger @ Biccie, and you tried so bloody hard too Confused.

Trying to find some pma here but feel so bloody crap, woe betide anyone that upsets me today. Dh has already had to duck several times for not buying me any breakfast cereal Blush - poor man!!!

I ordered pre-seed, 25 opk's and 25 pg tests yesterday. That should satisfy poas urges for a good month Wink.....

harassedinherpants · 10/08/2010 09:30

Umbongo - how are you doing?? x

UmBongo · 10/08/2010 11:07

Doing all right mostly, done a bit much over weekend as we are in the northeast so have been to a steam rally and to see the tall ships at hartlepool yesterday too. Bus drop off was at least a mile away from the action so by the time me and ds got to see a boat, we were already a bit knackered! And I had to carry him all the way back to the sodding bus at the end. (did burst into tears when a marshal told me I had gone the wrong way to get back to the bus stop as I was not allowed over the lock gates at the entrance to the marina. BUT knight in shining armour said he had a pass and would take me across and then walked me all the way to the end of the road where the bus stop was!! - He very nearly got hugged!) (impressive boats though!)

Thought the bleeding had stopped on sunday, but it was back yesterday. Not major, but annoying.

Sorry for the arrival of rtd everyone, what does the e stand for?

Have just been asked by ds, "How do ducks float?"!!!!!!!!!
Oh and how do cds work, How does it rain, how does the iron work (oh if they were all that easy to answer!)

Loujalou · 10/08/2010 11:18

Evil! Evil RTD!

Pants I like your new name.

Umbungo bliming kids want to know everything. Sounds like you had a nice day out though. Poor bloke if you did hug him he might have got a shock.

harassedinherpants · 10/08/2010 11:46

Umbongo - my dd is like that, "where do tables come from?" etc etc....drives me nuts, especially as she's doing it on purpose now!!! Hurrah for knight in shining armour, you don't many of them these days.

Lou - thanks, was your fault Grin

I like FG's casino comment......so we're all in Conception Casino rofl...

Loujalou · 10/08/2010 11:49

Pants you can help me come up with a name that is less "twee" am bored of mine but not sure what to change it to.... Am rubbish when it comes to my own name. Only can think of AchillesHeel but that might give me away if anyone knows me..... Hmm

OP posts:
Fairygodmother1 · 10/08/2010 12:50

Aww big hugs Um. Know exactly what you mean about annoying bleeding!

My niece asked me why I want a baby the other day! My nephew constantly asks questions too - thats what you get for being 3!

Conception Casino is crap! House always wins....Sad

Loujalou · 10/08/2010 13:12

We need those Ocean Eleven boys to fix it so we can win at the Conception Casino!

Hello Ladies nice to see every one gambling, we've gone from the bingo hall to the casino! Are we keeping the chav for the weekend?

Pre seed helps with the conception gamble, as when you are shattered and really not in the mood give the pre seed a quick squeeze (reminds me of wd40) and let your frisky other half get on with it. Not romantic I know but romance sometimes takes a back seat when ttfc!

As for children and their questions I bought dd an encyclopedia because she was driving me mad and got frustrated with me when I didn't know the answers.

Why can't fish talk? Why don't we all have willys? How does the tv/phone/Internet work?

The best one was when an Asian lady got on the bus dd says at the top of her voice 'why is that lady wearing a sheet it's boiling outside? How does she see where she is going?' I just wanted to die.

Second best, dd about 3 we are both squeezed in a little toilet together I pull down my pants dd says 'oh mommy I love your new kinickers with the bow on them' I said 'thank you' dd said ' did you buy new ones because you couldn't fit your big bum in the old ones?'

NOTHEROLDIE · 10/08/2010 20:52

LOL *LEMONY" don't you just love those embarrassing questions in awkward situations?

Wot a larf.

Fairygodmother1 · 10/08/2010 21:46

PMPL! The other day my B-I-L dropped me off at the DR & my niece was in the car & she kept asking why I was going to the dr! But she just wouldn't leave it alone! Bless!

We're at the casino cos our Giros have just come in Thursday is free night at Bingo son when we're skint we'll head down there!

UmBongo · 10/08/2010 22:54

Note to self - you won't get less tired unless you get off the f*&%ing computer and GO TO BED! (or at least make a start towards bed, need to get towels out of drier, have shower, wash hair, check ds and will probably faff around doing other jobs on the way!Hmm

Tell anyone that asks about doctors visit you have either a bad back or an ingrowing toenail. Obviously if its a kid choose the back option as if you choose toenail they will ask to see! We were at the hospital the other day when dh recognised someone and approached him for a chat! He of course asked what we were there for, he was transporting his mother, dh didn't think of an answer so we said his back! (known to be dodgy in the past!)

This was supposed to be a short post - not another rant!! Night night.

UmBongo · 10/08/2010 23:02

I really am going to bed this timeBlush

Bicnod · 11/08/2010 07:37

Hmmmm. ERTD hasn't turned up yet in spite of pink pant snot on Monday. Not officially due until tomorrow but did a test this morning and BFN :( Why oh why oh why do I do it to myself?

Still clutching at straws to win baby bingo until ERTD properly shows up.

Umbongo I'd have cried too. Hurrah for your knight :)

Lemony LOL at knickers incident Grin DS can only say a few words at the moment but he NEVER stops chatting babygubbins and I just know he's going to do running commentaries as soon as he is able.

Off to the New Forest tomorrow to hang out with my family as DH is at stag do this weekend. Hopefully will distract me from the inevitable disappointment when ERTD turns up.
