Testing my new name for Cakes :)

MakesCakesWhenStressed · 15/04/2011 08:33

DarciesmumandBump2 - likie! :-)

Am thinking I might alter mine somewhat if I can get a BFP...

DarciesmumandBump2 · 15/04/2011 09:31

Cakes Will have a think about a new name for you today :)

MakesCakesWhenStressed · 15/04/2011 09:36

let's hope it's needed that precipitately!

I was thinking something along the lines of.... MakesCakesAlsoMakesCupcakes

or something equally cutesy ;-)

EsmeWeatherwax · 15/04/2011 11:15

cakes how about eatscakeswhenpregnant :)

Have to admit I caved this morning and poas, which was, of course, a bfn, but then af isn't due til Tuesday, am definitely going to hold of till then to do another one!

MakesCakesWhenStressed · 15/04/2011 12:02

hee hee - I like EatsCakesWhenPregnant... it may even be true as long as I don't follow my mum's example and have horrific hyperemesis throughout the pregnancy. On the plus side I could do with losing a little weight ;-)

Wonder if I ought to stock the freezer with husband friendly meals now...? OTOH - he can cook and doesn't even grumble about it, but I'd feel bad if all I was doing was lying in a darkened room upchucking and he was doing everything...

EsmeWeatherwax · 15/04/2011 12:54

Fx for no hyperemesis, my mum was never sick while pg, but I am, constantly! So it doesn't neccessarily run in families. Oh dear, I do hate being pg! Strange how much I wish I was!

Louiseteacher30 · 15/04/2011 13:22

I felt sick constantly when I was pregnant and couldnt stop eating! Im hoping to be a little healthier this time as last time stuffed my face between lessons with chocolate!
Also Im certain Ill 'just know' this time as I remember complaining about a water infection feeling a few days before my BFP, Ill be looking out for that feeling at the end of my 2WW.

Hope everyone is well, love the new name darciesmum

Louise

Louiseteacher30 · 15/04/2011 13:26

Ps away this weekend as ov. tests say 'yes' (or they did yesterday and the digital said no today- must be tomorrow!) Secretly a bit gutted to be missing the Eastenders baby story tonight! Blush to be admitting to watching soaps

DarciesmumandBump2 · 15/04/2011 15:12

how about Cakesworkingonthecupcakes

Thanks Louise Hope you have a good time away. I didn't really suffer that much morning sickness with DD when I think back. With the miscarriage I had in 2008 was really nauseous with that one. Hopefully I don't with this one.

Louiseteacher30 · 15/04/2011 15:25

Fingers crossed for a forum full of no nausea when we all get our BFP's!!
Started with a little bit of tummy ache this afternoon which I normally get the day before ovulating, so money not wasted on new underwear or weekend away!!

Louiseteacher30 · 15/04/2011 15:26

whoops double negative...and degree was in English, tut tut Louise!!
Read 'forum lacking nausea when we all get our BFP's'

DarciesmumandBump2 · 15/04/2011 15:28

orangehead · 15/04/2011 18:09

Liliana1 · 16/04/2011 13:17

Hi Everyone! Is there room for me? I bring lemon cupcakes.
New to this so not sure about all the acronyms

I'm 31 and trying for my 1st. AF is due 1/5/11 but annoyingly, after having a v regular and easy 28 day cycle the last few months have been all over the place Angry

So want to be pregnant - just found out my friend at work who started trying the same time as us is and v happy for her but v jealous too Sad

Liliana1 · 16/04/2011 13:24

Congratulations DarciesmumandBump2 - love the new name. So hoping this month is my month too - lets hope for lots of BFP'S!

Do any of you 'chart'? Not sure how to start really, just go by my AF dates and work back. Are there any sites or methods that you reccommend? Want to feel like I'm doing something postive!

blue22 · 16/04/2011 13:49

Welcome Liliana, love the lemon cupcakes Grin
You're due around the same time as me, so fingers crossed we get a BFP. I reckon I'm just about entering the 2WW, though may try SWI a few more times as have no real clue about when I ovulate.
Struggle to get through day to day life as it is with tantruming 19 month DD and work, so don't reckon I'd get very far with charting!
