Oh that is tough to hear echo. I am sure you smiled when told but it is hard not to feel a bit annoyed.

I'm not thinking of any themes but I guess there will be a colour. We need to sit and make some decisions I think!

9.5hr meeting lol, that is harsh. Hope you didn't feel too pressured to explain yourself.

EchoDragon · 08/08/2012 20:08

Nicola I had no idea they were trying. I am happy for them just a tad Envy

I know my time will come. But it is a tad frustrating to have to be patient and wait.

EchoDragon · 08/08/2012 20:11

Hmm the best bit about wedding fayres is free cake samples and the chocolate fountains.

NicolaHazel · 08/08/2012 20:20

My friend is making my cakes...we are having little square cakes :-) I've had a few samples in the planning process, it has to be said!

I'm glad you're kind of pleased, Echo, but it must be hard. Is she your DH's sister? Are you close?

I missed Puppy's story earlier somehow. Good to see romance isn't dead yet! ;-p

Hi ladies, sorry haven't been posting much! Just so busy in work at the moment its crazy!! Have been reading though and lots been going on here I see -

Newbie - have you exchanged? Exciting times!
Echo - must have been so hard to hear! Fx it's your turn soon!
Puppy - Lol at the 'having a lie down' if only they knew :o

Hi to everyone else :) This waiting to see who will POAS is getting me through the boredom of waiting to ov at the moment - feel like this is such a pointless time in my cycle as on CD7 and not due to ov until CD20 :(

PuppyMummy · 08/08/2012 21:13

were in a tiny cottage with a lounge/dining and open plan kitchen area which has 2 bedrooms coming off it! no chance of doing it with them here as u can literally hear everything and the bed is typically a total bone shaker!

it had to be done!! Mon I sneaked into shower with oh at the swimming pool!!!!!

(no good for baby making really as I couldn't lie down after but I kept my pelvic floor tightly clamped!!)

oh what have I become!! Grin

EchoDragon · 08/08/2012 21:18

It's my DH's brother's new partner. Have only met her a handful of times. She seems lovely. Am pleased for my BIL he's a lovely guy. He is recently divorced from his not so nice ex. She is his new partner. He will make a great dad. He's v patient with our nephews who adore him.

EchoDragon · 08/08/2012 21:22

Ha ha ha puppy that's hilarious.

DulcetMoans · 08/08/2012 21:54

Haha puppy, sounds like you are having a good time to me! If only all TTC was that much fun!

NicolaHazel · 08/08/2012 21:59

How fantastic if your baby was conceived during a naughty quickie! :-)

woody17 · 08/08/2012 22:04

echodragon I know what you mean about being patient and waiting!

Ah I used to love the free chocolate fountains...

Newbie2 · 08/08/2012 22:50

I'm devastated!! I did not know about the chocolate fountains, tested lots of cake but no fountains at my fayre! Oooo I have a saving account with our wedding gift money...perhaps chocolate fountain should be our no1 purchase...I did miss out after all Grin

Oh temping is just annoying! My chart is trying to tease me by saying that I have a triphasic pattern that may indicate pregnancy but may also not. That's not really helpful info at all!

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 09/08/2012 06:31

Ah Newbie...every 'symptom' could be pregnancy. Or not. Hormones have so much to answer for. Why can't there be a definitive sign? :-(

letsdothisthing · 09/08/2012 06:52

Newbie- have your temps been continuously high since ov? Or dipped below the coverline at all?

Newbie2 · 09/08/2012 09:29

Lets It hasn't detected a cover line because I've had to override it with my CBFM results. I don't think temping is working for me at the moment. I will ask the GP on Friday whether it's worth carrying on.

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 09/08/2012 10:08

I really hope the GP has answers for you tomorrow, Newbie. You must be really pissed off. :-/

Newbie2 · 09/08/2012 10:59

Do you think chaining myself to her desk will help? :)

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 09/08/2012 11:13

Depends what you're trying to achieve! :-)

DulcetMoans · 09/08/2012 11:17

It might help convince her you need some kind of help!!

CD19 over here and 5dpo (at best guess). Nothing to report really. lol. Was very warm but was lugging stuff around. Bored of waiting now and still a long time left!

Newbie2 · 09/08/2012 11:20

Hee Hee Dulcet flustered is not a symptom...or is it? Grin

33andTTC · 09/08/2012 11:34

woody17 · 09/08/2012 11:34

This 2ww is dragging by soooo slowly! Can't wait for 6pm tomorrow as I always find the weekends go by much quicker...

Sorry for the moaning...

NicolaHazel · 09/08/2012 11:40

Hi 33, I'm taking the same as I read something about miscarriage due to lack of zinc.

Hurrah for first cycle.

Moan all you like Woody :-)

Newbie2 · 09/08/2012 11:46

Thanks 33 I'll let everyone know how it goes...it's like waiting for a biology lesson when anyone goes to a GP on here lol
