micky really hope you get answers soon! Going back to the subject of your summer clothes shopping Next have some nice t-shirts in with an elasticated bottom (I have just bought 2 to hid my bloatedness at work!) they should do well for pg or non-pg summerwear! they're £10 each and come in white, green, purple and I think pink too....just a thought! They're nice light cotton as well so good for a warm Turkish summer!

MickyLee · 18/04/2011 19:32

Thanks blue Looks like Next have really turned themselves around this year.. loads of great stuff on their site. Will be my first port of call I think. a tenner each is fantasic value!

Hi ladies

After long tearful discussions the move to NYC is off - we're too happy where we are to move, which is a first for us, usually we are looking for the next big adventure as soon as the last settles down...

Back on the bus for me Grin

But (just started a new thread on this too) really really worried about how I will cope with 2 DCs. I know I won't have any issues loving DC2 just as much as DS when he or she finally arrives but I am finding it more than a little frightening thinking about how I will keep DS the happy chap he is and keep myself the happiest I have ever been. I would be very grateful if any of you ladies who have had more than one DC already could share your wisdom Smile

Thanks ladies

Deafworm · 18/04/2011 20:27

poppy, its just sort of happens and sometimes its hard going for a bit, i dont know how old your ds is but up untill abou 18months my dd2 hated dd1 as she is such a mother hen but then all of a sudden i looked at them and realised they were friends, now with dd3 at 22 months its lovely as she is out in the garden with her big sisters and is part of the gang (including next doors kids) that friendship they have makes everything else fade, theyre amazing! the best advice i can give for a second is to slow down, its easy to make everything a rush, school nursery, toddler groups etc etc we have to be out/be there/do this/do that most of it is unnecesary and if it does really have to be done stretch it out, i used to leave an hour in the morning to get my girls sorted and out to school, this year with 2 in uniform thats been unrealistic so now they get up half an hour earlier and the same to bed but we have calm chilled out mornings without the stress that rushing was giving us. hope that helps a little.

snap somerset, im 2 days late now and just want something conclusive one way or another, hope you get your bfp tomorrow :)

MickyLee · 19/04/2011 09:01

poppy Glad to have you back. NYC would of been very cool though but living there with a young family would be quite hard I imagine.

I had DS when DD had just turned two. For the first month I was in the UK staying with family so that was easy! But getting back was hard at first. We moved to a different area so I knew no one at all and we were in house tht was too far to get out. DH worked 6 days a week at the time and 12 hour days. DS had colic and cried every waking hour! Looking back it I wonder how I didn't have a breakdown. I supose you just take every minute at a time and don't think about things too much. Everything sets in to place after a few months and now my DC 2 and 4 never want to play with me and are always off playing on their own. Like a constant play date. Having two DC now is so much easier than having one.

Let your standards lower as regards to the house. Don't feel guilty if your DC1 spends hours on end watching tv for the first few months and take one step at a time.

Later on you will feel proud (like me) of yourself for getting through it.

Plus you kind of know what you are doing baabywise so that is quite simple :)

whitegold · 19/04/2011 09:23

Morning ladies, looks like I'm out this month - af arrived this morning bang on time.

Wishing those of you still here the best of luck and I'll stick around to see how you all get on.

MickyLee · 19/04/2011 09:28

Sorry white :( Good luck for next cycle. Glad you are sticking around

Karbea · 19/04/2011 09:49

Hello,

Thought i'd check in, no news from me. I'm one day late now, i've not tested as I don't feel pregnant and feel like I will come on at some point... temps are really low now, so AF must soon be on her way.
I'm pretty happy though as if I come on today I would have got to DPO12 which means my lutual phase wasn't short this month Smile.

But anyway hanging on, on this bus until the fat lady sings...

Deafworm · 19/04/2011 10:02

sorry white, good luck next month

Karbea · 19/04/2011 10:04

Hi Deafworm what are your temps doing?

i havent been temping karbea, this was a last ditch if it happens it happens month as dh has deployed for 4 months, ive not really found temping useful in the past/not been very good at it and was determined not to get all caught up this time and if af had turned up on time id have shrugged my shoulders and just got on with the next 4 months but now im confused! i have pcos and in the past my cycles have been seriously erratic but i have had a regular 34 day cycle for a year now and i just keep wondering if my body is being really cruel and has picked this month to go back to its old ways Confused

vegasmum give me some hope, how long was ages? im on cd38 of a 34 day cycle and nothing either way? good luck not getting af and being patient, sorry about the bfn but hope its followed soon by a bfp

MickyLee · 19/04/2011 11:18

deaf sorry to hear your DH is being deployed.. roll on 4 months! :(

Deafworm · 19/04/2011 11:21

thanks micky, its ok really im using the time to sort out all the junk he hoards! would just be easier for this bit if i could talk to him properly. ah well time will tell im being impatient but its not like i will never know the answer!

BlueCrane · 19/04/2011 12:01

deaf I didn't get a bfp until day 42 0f a 36 day cycle so hang in there and even then didn't get a digi response until I was a week late.

LivinInTheMoment · 19/04/2011 12:33

Last night I was dreaming I was in labour!!! hahaha! It was so real. I woke up and thought woah! What the! Hmm

AF is not due til 21st, wonder if I should go buy sticks to pee on today? I've not done any pregnancy tests since we started ttc in january cos AF has always come bang on time.

Maybe my dream was a premonition?!

BlueCrane · 19/04/2011 17:15

livin could be a good sign apparently very vivid dreams are a symptom!! Smile I'd still hold off with the pee sticks...it becomes obsessive once you've started!

Deafworm · 19/04/2011 18:07

thanks blue, it feels like somethings going on in there, not like when my pcos was bad so hoping its just slow to rise hormone levels

fingers crossed for you livin

weimy · 19/04/2011 19:37
