imps this a frosty (frozen embryo) from our 2nd round, so its kind of a bonus extra. I'm feeling fairly optimistic as I didn't even expect it to survive the defrosting process and although we only have a 25% chance that it will work, that's a hugely bigger chance than we have most months. I don't have any symptoms to report yet - it is a bit early :o

NoMaybeAboutIt · 03/03/2014 09:05

Beedle I'm feeling so positive for you too. Are you on crinone this time round? Or some other delightful substance? Wink

I've never made rye bread Imps. I bloody love making bread though. I'm about to make a lemon drize shortly. Anyone care for a slice? That's excellent news about your cycles too, makes things much easier. I'm excited for you lovely!

YES I WANT CAKE

BeedlesPineNeedles · 03/03/2014 11:26

me too Cake

No, maybe no crinone or anything this cycle, its entirely natural (apart from the spreading my legs and having some instrument stuck inside me to allow blastobeedle to be put in the right place) :o

TooExtraImmatureCheddar · 03/03/2014 11:46

Grin Blastobeedle! Grin That is the cutest name ever! Congrats at being PUPO, Beedle - Brooking hard!

Imps, welcome back! You certainly reinvigorated the thread, and then some!

I just had to come here and share with you how bloody uncomfortable the new pair of tights that I have on today are. I am pretty sure they are restricting the blood flow around my thigh tops. I am sure you can all understand my anguish.

beedle 25% sounds like decent chances! Do you self fund where you are?

too!! - remind me where you are in this whole shebang?

And what news was there from Solars??

BeedlesPineNeedles · 03/03/2014 12:32

imps I usually get cut in half by tights around my stomach even if I buy them a couple of sizes bigger (and actually I have a fairly flat stomach!)

Luckily its all still free, though I have started looking at the websites of the 2 private clinics here incase blastobeedle doesn't make it and our 3rd go doesn't work either

NoMaybeAboutIt · 03/03/2014 13:10

Woah woah woah Beedle, none of this 'if' business. Blastobeedle will make it. There, I have spoken.

Imps I feel your pain. I know exactly what you mean. Tights are the bane of my existence. But when you find a good pair, it's the best feeling ever.

Imps9 · 03/03/2014 13:14

WHAT DO WE WANT?

Blastobeedle to stick!

WHEN DO WE WANT IT?

Now!

WHAT ELSE DO WE WANT?

A comfy pair of tights!

WHEN DO WE WANT THEM?

Now!

musicalmrs · 03/03/2014 13:18

I've ditched tights recently, as I've had absolutely no luck with them. Cheap leggings seem to be doing the trick..

(though you do have to wear boots with them).

keepitgoing · 03/03/2014 13:29

brooking for blasyobeedle and Sunday!!!

solats' news is that her baby boy was born safelyGrin Grin

TooExtraImmatureCheddar · 03/03/2014 13:44

Please see today's antenatal thread for my current tights dilemma: here

Imps, be careful with words like 'shebang' on a Brooking thread! Wink Lots of shebanging going on around here. I am nearly 20 weeks pg with Brooking Baby No 2, due July 23. My first Brooking Baby will be 2 on Sunday!

Imps9 · 03/03/2014 14:31

loL Too - shebang is one of my favourite words precisely because it looks so rude written down (doesn't sound quite so rude when said out loud though - it's like it's got stealth rudeness).

Lovely news on number 2! Hurrah!

BeedlesPineNeedles · 04/03/2014 10:18

Symptom spotting for today is sore boobs - though I think this is more a sign of high progesterone (which is good anyway) rather than an actual sign that blastobeedle is making himself at home.

And I'm hungry - but thta is not a symptom is just nearly lunchtime :o

NoMaybeAboutIt · 04/03/2014 13:06

Yes to sore boobs Beedle!!!

Shebangs shebangs

Munxx · 05/03/2014 13:25

Apologies apologies apologies for my utter crapness and absence.

Beedle I am brooking so very very very hard for you.

IMPS just....hello and yay and hello again!

Cups and Geek just if you're reading, big hugs from me.

And hello to everybody else!

Imps9 · 05/03/2014 20:00

Just checking in to see if there's any news from Beedle - am DELIGHTED to hear about your sore boobs!! HURRAH FOR SORE BOOBS! DIFFED!!

Hello there Munx - how's things?

Maybe how are you feeling today. Sorry that I have missed pretty much all of your pregnancy - how has it been? I trust that Mr Maybe has been looking after you and waiting on you hand and foot? How many bits of clothing have you knitted for young'un??

Got my first blood test tomorrow. Flipping hate blood tests - the last one I had made me sob like a child for about 10 minutes until the nurse could calm me down. Guess I have to get used to them though Hmm

Munxx · 05/03/2014 21:26

I'm good Imps, thanks. So pleased you're back in the fold.

Am practising my routine for when your BFP appears Wink

musicalmrs · 05/03/2014 21:33

Sore boobs Beedle, definitely diffed!

Imps, I used to be the same with blood tests. Had a Scary Needle episode when I as at school, and have been wibbly over them ever since. Then after lots of A&E trips with all the bleeding with DD, they were atrocious at taking blood and my phobia just got worse. Thankfully some much nicer people took my blood later on and I got over it a bit..!

BeedlesPineNeedles · 06/03/2014 08:43

Good luck with the blood test today imps I don't think I've had too many blood tests but my definition of too many and your definition of too many might not be the same!

Still sore boobs here, but its a fairly regular thing for me so I won't assume its a diffed symptom yet But I love that you all think it is :o

NoMaybeAboutIt · 06/03/2014 09:15

I am excited by your boobs Beedle Wink

Hope your bloods go ok today Imps. It'll be over and done with before you know it. Are these your CD3/21 bloods? Thank you for asking after me. I haven't had the best pregnancy, but I really have loved every minute of it Smile

If you're lurking Geek, Cups and Scarlett, hope you're all ok x

BeedlesPineNeedles · 06/03/2014 09:32

Thanks maybe you say the nicest things :o Can't be much longer left until your sneeze birth?

NoMaybeAboutIt · 06/03/2014 10:15

I'm a charmer aren't I Wink. Two and a half weeks Beedle!

BeedlesPineNeedles · 06/03/2014 10:31
