Iwish you saucy devil, i dont think i have ever done it in the kitchen, tiler there or not! God, am so DULL!!

What is slapped cheek disease then lady?

I loved the cat stories too, similar to lady my skinny little kittenish looking girl cat is also the local murderer... she was very unpopular to have discovered a family of bunny flappits! After she got through the babies (several of which i found in the house live & dead, those that were inbetween got taken to the vets for a humane ending!) she brought home the mummy! DH had rung me to say skinny minny was running up our drive with large mummy curled up in her mouth!! Thankfully we managed to save mummy and 2 babies... not good living next to lots of fields!! Safe to say i am enjoying hibernation!!!

Nothing to report this end, still lurgied up, exhausted, no further CM and will ring MW for a chat later on.

Hope everyone else is good x

batteryturkey · 22/12/2010 11:06

mrsa it does look like ff has got your dates right - do you usually ov on the same day every month?

Grin at iwish kitchen sex - my dp once mentioned about sex on the kitchen table, but since it was a cheapie from argos that I put together myself - I don't fancy my chances at not getting an injury!

My temp dipped slightly today -but is still well above the cover line.I thought DP would keep me away from testing but he is the one that wants me to test early :) but I will be strong!! No early testing for me

I did point to a vein on my boob and say to dp 'look at my big veiny boob' - to which he replied 'your boob has always been veiny'. Nice.

I hope everyone is ok - going to have a walk out into town for a few bits, have a lovely day xxxx

Is a version of Parvovirus, Nix. But if you catch it in pregnancy it can cause miscarriage and fetal problems.

MrsArchchancellorRidcully · 22/12/2010 12:23

Hmm battery in the past 4 cycles I have ov day 18, day 21, day 23 and day 25 so I have no clue!
I'm still fairly certain I ov between 24 and 26 cos of the other signs and think I may have had a fallback rise post ov.
Never mind - nowt that I can do now anyway and got plenty of SWI in - I'm hoping that xmas wil take my mind of the 2ww and I can hold on till new yrs day till testing.

TerrysNo2 · 22/12/2010 12:45

Quick post, at home but sent DS to CM as I need to pack for Christmas - driving to see DH's family in Cumbria tonight. Anywhere between a 6-8 hour drive!!

Just wanted to say hello and battery things looking more positive than last month!! Grin

TEST TEST TEST!!!!!!!!!

WhenStNixgotstuckuptheChimney · 22/12/2010 13:03

Oooh terrys pack for a long journey lovely, we have had lots of snow! Not sure where you are now, we are J18 on M6 lots of snow overnight and more forecast tonight x

safe trip... Xmas Envy at cumbria!!

Iwish · 22/12/2010 13:41

Well nix that's your next place to dtd lol Xmas Wink. I hope you get rid of the dreaded lurgy too.

Haha battery. Try chair or work top sex! come on TEST TEST!!! And Xmas Grin at your DP saying you always have veiny boobs!! I always have them too so can't get excited about it.

Hi lady hope you are ok.

Do you think you will hold out mrsa? I think my af is due 3rd jan if I have a 14 day lp. Wonder if I can test new years eve??

Oooh terrys I don't envy that long drive!! Will your DH drive so you can have a kip?

Well just won lots of choccies and biscuits at work, going to be a right fatty this Christmas pregnant or not!

TerrysNo2 · 22/12/2010 14:45

Almost done packing!!

Nix are the roads ok near you - we will be on motorway all the way to Penrith and then I don't think there is so much snow, just the risk of an earthquake! Hmm

Iwish DH will be doing ALL the driving. Its his punishment for not having a license for the first 6 years we were together and I did it all. 2 years on and that excuse is still working! Grin

mousebacon · 22/12/2010 15:24

Hi ladies, sorry I've been awol - just getting sorted for Christmas and feeling generally crap really.

I'm now swinging from feeling disgustingly sick one minute to bleeding (albeit tiny amounts) the next. Had my first flash of red rather than brown today so my head is all over the place. It's our scan at 9.40 tomorrow but I have no idea what they will say. Obviously I'm hoping to see a heartbeat etc but I won't be surprised if there's nothing there. I feel so sick though, I'm hoping that's a positive sign. I did once have a simple pregnancy which resulted in my beautiful boy I'd like to think I could do that again...

Anyway, really wanted to say congrats to lady I'm thrilled for you and wish any of you travelling lots of luck for the journey xx

I'll pop back tomorrow at some point and let you know. xx

TerrysNo2 · 22/12/2010 15:59

Right, about to go, wish us luck!!

mouse just wanted to say that I will be thinking about you tomorrow and keeping everything crossed that things are well with you and baby. xxx

LadyGoneGaga · 22/12/2010 16:08

Good luck for tomorrow, Mouse. Hopefully they will find what has been causing the bleeding. It seems strange that you have carried on bleeding, horrible you must feel in limbo. But the sickness is a really good sign. I will be thinking of you xxx

Safe journey, Terrys. Weather also been bad in Midlands so no idea what the motorways will be like but has stopped snowing for now at least.

WhenStNixgotstuckuptheChimney · 22/12/2010 17:01

terrys roads are clear up here, will be fine. just the traffic to watch out for. If you are heading north avoid M6/M5 spaghetti and go M42 M6toll far better at this time of night x safe trip xx

wave as you pass me xx

Mouse - disgustingly sick is fab xxxxx thats a good sign if nowt else. so sorry you are having this hideous worry :( I have been similar. First pg was so simple, so carefree, so easy going, i was so happy!!!! this time..... JESUS!!!!!!! My nausea came back tonight after a 3 day absence with fever Xmas Grin having said that the poor bean will be fried from fever, and drugged up to its teeny eyeballs, god hope it survives that! Could be placenta mouse?! kicks in around 7 weeks? ish?! Wishing you all the luck for tomorrow xxx

IzzyWizzyletsgetChristmassy · 22/12/2010 18:24

Just popping on to say big (((hugs))) to mouse and good luck for tomorrow - I'll be thinking of you x

nix - pleased to hear sickness is back (in the nicest possible way!)

battery - poas! poas! poas!

MrsP81 · 22/12/2010 21:03

Good luck for your journey Terrys. I'm very jealous that you're going to Cumbria, I love it there.

Good luck to you too mouse, will be thinking of you.

Iwish, I don't really know when I ov, I had a couple of cycles where it was 15-18 days but last time it as 24! You're right, lots of Christmas SWI for us. Xmas Smile

Ooooooo, I'm excited for you battery! Can't wait for you to test.

ravenlocks · 22/12/2010 21:10

Can I join your thread? Think charters anonymous is the place for me, since I have become somewhat addicted to FF and my thermometer. Also read TCOYF cover to cover last cycle.

About me... TTC#1, 17 months since we decided to try for a baby and I came of the pill. Got pg first cycle after post pill period but had MMC in week 17 almost a year ago. Took a TTC break to recover and started again in April, now on cycle 9. Cycles are pretty regular and nice and normal (ish) with the odd bizzare one in there. Despite that still not up duffed. On RTD.

GetDownYouWillFall · 22/12/2010 21:18

Hi there ravenlocks welcome Smile

Charting is addictive isn't it?! I also got TCOYF (only from the library though) and have been fuelling my obsession interest nicely.

Sorry to hear about your MMC and your trying since. It's so unfair isn't it? To get pregnant first cycle, and then to have such a long wait to follow. I got pregnant fist cycle of trying, but had a MC at 5 weeks. Since then cycles so far have been long and tedious. Still waiting for ov.

If you post a link to your chart, we will all be able to stalk advise you! Grin

Pull up a bean bag and I'll make you a cuppa.

WhenStNixgotstuckuptheChimney · 22/12/2010 22:02

Welcome raven, am also a TCOYF fan! Charting saved my sanity. Sorry for your loss, hideous. I know it too well. (mc aug 10 pg2, currently 7wks diffed with pg3)

This is the lucky thread xxx

spilttheteaagain · 23/12/2010 07:32

I feel bleurgh this morning. Yey but ugh.

battery how's things with you?

IzzyWizzyletsgetChristmassy · 23/12/2010 08:21

Hi raven - welcome!

newyearsday glad your scan went well, that must have been fantastic Xmas Grin

terrys hope your journey went ok, we're heading ip to north Lincolnshire today so also hoping for good weather and clear roads.

nix and spilt yay for sickiness!!!

mouse - thinking of you this morning and sending good luck vibes and hugs your way x

well my temps have continued to stay up but this morning ff changed my ov date from cd15 to 17. This goes against my cm, and both monitor and opk readings. What do you think?

IzzyWizzyletsgetChristmassy · 23/12/2010 08:24

Btw raven I am so sorry for your loss Xmas Sad. I also lost my last baby at just over 16 weeks in July - it's truly awful. Let's hope we both get that magic bfp soon x

WhenStNixgotstuckuptheChimney · 23/12/2010 08:58

Izzy now why does FF do that?! mm looks like 15 to me!!

IzzyWizzyletsgetChristmassy · 23/12/2010 09:59

Morning nix - it is day 15 isn't it?! Day 17 makes no sense. And my acupuncturist agrees, so wemust be right!

Glad you're feeling better btw, sounds like you've had a really rough time, poor you! Hopefully you'll be able to enjoy a nice, relaxing Christmas now x

ravenlocks · 23/12/2010 10:14

Thanks for the lovely welcomes, looking forward to getting to know you all.

Oooh, how do I share a link to my FF chart?

batteryturkey · 23/12/2010 10:37

morning:) Just popping to say good luck MOUSE - welcome to ravens

Ok so I crumbled yesterday and did a test about 4pm - bfn. Do you think I tested too early and wrong time of day? I am not holding out much hope but temps up a bit this morning.... who knows?

Off to drag dp to the shops - will check in later xx
