rotfl @smack-happy Merconium and Imps :o

We DTD last night so tbh he probably already has it, thinking about it...... if I frame it like that I think he will be be up for some rat smacking (he is currently under the impression all his christmasses have come at once with this ttc lark :o )

Sn0wGoose · 08/09/2011 13:59

Totally agree, little!!!

farfallarocks · 08/09/2011 14:06

SNOW although technically it can be passed I think its quite rare. Tends to come from an inbalance within you (gut usually) and quite hard to 'catch' it from someone else.
I find eating live yogurt and garlic sorts mine out sharpish.

Obiviously this is just a symptom of pregnancy so we better get used to it.

Yes DH seems to have got a taste for it now, we are having way more sex than we have ever had before!!

dream glad you had a nice hols and sorry about the sickness!

solars so is AF due today? Are you going to test? We have not had any testing for a while on here (wonders if 5 dpo is too early, hmmm)

GenericDietCola · 08/09/2011 14:24

Oh yes Solars test! Test!

Sn0wGoose · 08/09/2011 14:27

farfalla that's interesting, I didn't know that. I have a delish pot of Rachel's coconut yoghurt in the fridge, I shall break it out :o

farfallarocks · 08/09/2011 14:28

I also use the yogurt topically (iyswim)

NOT the same pot though I hasten to add :)

farfallarocks · 08/09/2011 14:45

ps. my boobs hurt and I am really constipated.
I am so up the duff, aren't I? Grin

Sn0wGoose · 08/09/2011 15:04

rotfl @farfalla

Yes, you are sooo pg, how long til you get your bfp? ;)

Sn0wGoose · 08/09/2011 15:06

PS, no need of topical yoghurt - DH rushed out before work to get me some canniston, the star. He didn't want to initially, but changed his mind sharpish when I suggested the longer it went untreated, the longer he'd have to wait until he could next ride the booby train -toot toot- :o

farfallarocks · 08/09/2011 15:11

Good action snow!

I can't test sensibly until next Saturday not that that will stop me starting from about Weds of course, with the excuse that I have a work night out that night and need to know

Solars · 08/09/2011 15:15

Grin at Sn0w's DH.

Little that's exactly what I thought, wouldn't it be nice to receive such a generous gift every time she arrives, would certainly make her visit more pleasurable considering she insists on arriving every month, uninvited too, I hasten to add!!

Generic Farfalla I have no tests at home and I am resisting the urge to test until saturday morning if no sign of af by then!

Farfalla those are sure signs, you really are up the duff, so who knows 5dpo is perhaps not too early!

farfallarocks · 08/09/2011 15:19

Nice try solars

poas, poas, poas

Sn0wGoose · 08/09/2011 15:21

:o

GenericDietCola · 08/09/2011 15:34

Ooh exciting! Farfalla and Solars you are soooo up the duff!

Lol at sn0w too!

By the way, I have ensured my BFP this month by buying my very first pair of skinny jeans. They hardly fit me now, never mind when I'm preggo. Ho hum.

farfallarocks · 08/09/2011 15:48

Generic, so preggers its unbelievable.
I would do the same but I look truly awful in jeans

In fact, my waist is my best feature so being preggers is going to be AWFUL, AWFUL you hear me?

GenericDietCola · 08/09/2011 16:09

Oh I hear you Farfalla - without a waist I just look fat. I am a slightly overweight hourglass shape. Mind you, my waist has never quite recovered from having DD - nothing to do with pregnancy, just sheer laziness and overeating! In fact, if Maybe's listening the 30 day Shred sorted my waistline right out - I had a lovely flat stomach. Must get back on that again!

Biscuitsandtea · 08/09/2011 16:12

What is this 30 day shred?

GenericDietCola · 08/09/2011 16:28

Biscuits it's an evil workout DVD by the lady who does The Biggest Loser (not that I've ever seen it) - here: www.amazon.co.uk/Jillian-Michaels-Day-Shred-DVD/dp/B002RNOS2Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1315495596&sr=8-1

Sn0wGoose · 08/09/2011 16:36

I have the opposite problem, I am a bit top heavy but without a very defined waist - most jeans give me muffin top :( I need skirts and dresses to define me a waist!

GenericDietCola · 08/09/2011 16:40

I'm pretty rubbish at clothes to be honest. My figure isn't that bad really, but I have virtually no idea of what suits me and I live in fear of looking frumpy - hence the skinny jeans, which probably don't suit me!

MyGoldenNotebook · 08/09/2011 17:34

Hello All :)

And a special welcome back to dream - I've thought about you since we had that mn conversation before you went away and I'm glad to hear you sounding cheeful!

Sore boobs and constipation? Farfalla it is now blindingly obvious

Generic my topshop skinny jeans split when I was sitting down the other day Blush Maybe I should do this 'shred' thing you all speak of instead of cooking up more batches of fridge cake

OK ... TMI alert. Last night and today I have had really thick white discharge. Is this a symptom, or just gross? I am also a bit crampy even though AF isn't due for five days.

Also, I have a tiny waist but an enormous bottom Blush

dreamfeeder · 08/09/2011 17:37

generic, i'm totally uncool, but kind of in denial that 'conservative' (i.e. jeans and a plain top) is my 'style'. ho hum. I bought some tops with actual flowers and patterns this summer, and felt totally cool, until I saw a Grandma at a group wearing the same top. Shame! I'm what a magazine would call 'sporty' figure. slim ish and quite muscly (in my old life) from all the running and riding and walking and biking I used to do all the time. No real waist or boobs except in earlier bf, a bit straight up and down. Jeans and a top hide most evils for me!!!! As i haven't changed size bar when pg for years, most of my clothes are years old.... I just finally ditched some 10 year old jeans as worn out (and my god, they really were!!)

No-one needs worry about diets, after your pregnancies, you will all bf it all off.

dreamfeeder · 08/09/2011 17:39

Hello golden, I've been missing mn and you guys more than i should have i'm sure I had the discharge- more, thicker and sticky. I asked about it on here as a symptom before I got my BFP. You are clearly with child. I am slightly more positive. Mainly because otherwise DH will actually divorce me, he's so sick of it!!!

scarletfingernail · 08/09/2011 17:42

Farfalla and Golden you are both pregnant for sure. Sore boobs , constipation, discharge and cramps before BFP are all top signs.

Solars no AF symptoms and no pregnancy sypmtoms also means pregnant. Are you really waiting until Saturday? Shock

Solars · 08/09/2011 18:55

Golden I was a bit crampy a few days ago and also had discharge although I wouldn't have said mine was very thick, dry now...have to say Scarlet I have that heavy feeling in the womb area this evening, indicating that af is on it's way so I may well be out of the running this month! Really can't face a bfn so if still no sign of af tomorrow I'm afraid I'll be testing on Saturday at the earliest....how are you anyway?

Generic I am of the petite body type which can be awful finding clothes to fit without having to get things altered!!
