So, after almost turning myself inside out giving birth to DC1, we've decided to take the plunge and try for another. Thought this would be a good place to share excitement / terror / general state of knackeredness. Just watch your feet as you come in. I haven't had chance to tidy the lego away yet and you know how much it hurts when you stand on it.
Glass of Wine anyone?

Also what does AF mean?

need an acronym guide just for this board lol, How much are those ovulation calendar things??

purplehonesty · 03/12/2011 22:04

Hey times welcome to the thread. Hope you are as lucky as many of us here have been. I had to ask what AF meant too, apparently it is aunt flo. As in aunt flo is arriving on Friday!

BFP is big fat positive!
Just watching the weather forecast and Looks like we are in for snow here, so not much exercising going to be done here other than reaching for the pringles!

difficulttimes · 03/12/2011 22:07

QueenOfProcrastination · 05/12/2011 18:17

Just popping in to ask for a stern talking to. Been needing to wee all day and dizzy on and off all weekend. Please tell me not to POAS unless AF is late (ie, no POAS until Thursday!) The First Response test I have left is calling to me!

Clandy · 05/12/2011 19:07

Oh yum biscuits Smile thanks. Far too early to poas step away!!

Welcome difficult hope you find the thread as lucky as I did!!

purplehonesty · 05/12/2011 20:37

Now now queen. You know how disappointing a bfn is when you test too early so I want you to sit on your hands until thursday.
And then poas first thing and let us know!
Dizzy hmm......

purplehonesty · 05/12/2011 20:38

purplehonesty · 06/12/2011 08:09

POAS is Pee on a stick Difficult

Am ok thanks clandy, feeling more like myself but now of course I am worrying about why I don't feel so sick. Gah you can't win!
I was lying in bed last night panicking that I haven't felt that twisting and aching feeling in my tummy for a couple of days.
Have a right podge tho which now cannot be easily hidden and I have lost 4 pounds somehow?!

difficulttimes · 06/12/2011 09:15

Oh right should have known durr ,

how far along are you purple??

wifey6 · 06/12/2011 10:14

Here's a silly question...what does swi mean? How obvious is it that I am very new to this! Grin

redrhumba · 06/12/2011 17:24

Hi ladies
my first in here.
Dh has finally agreed to ttc for a 2nd baby. its taken some time as he has always been adamant that he only wanted 1 but i have been off my pill for last couple of weeks now so can officially join you.
Ds is 2.5 and although i would have liked a smaller age gap i think 3 + years will be great.
anyway hope everyone's well

ps wifey6 swi means sex with intent

purplehonesty · 06/12/2011 18:51

Am ten weeks difficult and I have a 2 and a bit year old.

I always thought it was shagging with intent, obviously I am far more common than most!

Welcome red hope this thread is lucky for you. When are your dates for Poas etc?

redrhumba · 06/12/2011 18:58

Shag, sex they're both with intent!!
I have no idea i think i'm due af in about a week I'll check it out. with this being first cycle off pill I've not really considered my dates until next month!
Congratulations on your 10 week bump purple x

QueenOfProcrastination · 07/12/2011 11:40

Well, I'm out ladies.

AF arrived this morning, spot on 28 days and without any of the usual warning signs. At least I can treat myself to a bottle of the Cranberry and Cinnamon cider I saw at the supermarket yesterday.
Hope everyone else due to POAS has more luck.

purplehonesty · 07/12/2011 13:11

Oh queen am so sorry. Next month then, a christmas baby it is for you!!!
Would love a glass of vino over Xmas!

hobnobnomnom · 12/12/2011 14:38

Well should have taken your advice purple. I went to the wedding, made full use of free bar, now feel incredibly guilty as I got a BFP today!!!!!! Woo hooGrin

Clandy · 12/12/2011 19:06

Woo hoo! Congratulations... Don't feel guilty either! Hope your feeling well Smile

howiwonder · 12/12/2011 21:51
