Oh wow! Do you really think so????? Shock

RetroHippy · 24/03/2014 15:31

I'm not responsible enought to be a mum! I've given DNiece nappies rash Sad changed her before her nap and her bum was fine. Kept sniffing for poopy nappy and changed it as soon as I noticed a smell, but now her bum looks sore Sad

I've had a cold, but it's clearing up and I got right in there! I've put some cream on, but now I'm worrying SIL will never let me have her again!

RetroHippy · 24/03/2014 15:33

Should point out, the concern about the cold is that I missed the smell and left her in it for too long. Feel so guilty for her poor bottom.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 24/03/2014 15:34

Retro nappy rash is par for the course IMO with babies and nappies. Have you got some sudocrem? Or if you can brave a little nappy off time, the air will help. Really don't beat yourself up, I wish my dc had such a lovely funny auntie. The only aunts they have, couldn't give 2 hoots!

PunkyPod · 24/03/2014 15:36

Aw don't worry Retro. You've done everything right. A splodge of bepanthen always sorts dd's bum out Smile

katecupoftea · 24/03/2014 15:36

You bugger off for ages retro then you come back and grace us with a story about how you've been shoving you face in a pooey bottom?! Classic Retro.

katecupoftea · 24/03/2014 15:37

MrsE I can't follow the link on my phone so will look later tonight, but I reckon it's time you maybe invested in a cb digi for tomorrow/weds just to be sure!

lindamagoo · 24/03/2014 15:38

Retro they almost all get nappy rash at some point, teething, strong urine and loads of other things cause it, don't worry yourself about it Smile

RetroHippy · 24/03/2014 15:45

Thanks you lot Smile

We've been amusing ourselves videoing DNiece on my phone and playing it back Grin

MrsExtraOrdinary · 24/03/2014 15:45

Kate how sensitive are digis? My frer was negative this morning. I'm a bit concerned I keep getting an intermittent positive result. Makes me think its a weak bean Sad my history is not great with getting positive early on.

My only thing that points towards pg is can't stand coffee and opened a bottle of Wine expensive Sancerre last night, poured a glass, had one sip and thought it tasted funny. What a waste! Grin

lindamagoo · 24/03/2014 16:07

MrsE how many kids do you already have again? And how long have you been ttc this time if you don't mind me asking?

spinningirl10 · 24/03/2014 16:08

MrsE...how can I find the link? I've looked on canyouseealine but there's loads!!! :)

spinningirl10 · 24/03/2014 16:11

Ooooh I found it and I can see a line!!!

Looks like a bfp to me :)

Spotti · 24/03/2014 16:17

Just managed to find you on canyouseealine (it's v.helpful that you have the same username as on here :)) and I think it looks a bit pink! I can understand why you don't want to get too excited as it's quite faint, but it's definitely not blank and white. Will be interesting to see what it looks like a few days from now...

On the subject of that addictive website, is anyone else confused by just how different 'apparently positive' tests can look? Some of them on there look as blank and lonely as can be, while others are glaringly obvious Confused. I hope my BFP is just that: BIG, FAT and obviously POSITIVE! POAS can be hard enough without having to squint at a potential line.

Guess that's why CB digis wre invented...to make it idiot proof! (Although it's interesting that the 'idiot proof' HPTs aren't as sensitive...hmm...)

I'm not bored and on a rambling rant. Nope, not me!

Back on topic - keep us posted MrsE about what happens next.

Spotti · 24/03/2014 16:25

That website makes me want to POAS...I'm not even at the point of ovulating yet... >close the page and walk away spotti

PolytheneGirl · 24/03/2014 16:27

Well when I get my BFP I will be sat with a soggy stick, an angle poised lamp and a magnifying glass! I'll almost definitely have to post it on here for a 2nd, 3rd and 4th opinion!

Tilly28 · 24/03/2014 16:28

Mrs E I just checked it out and it def looks like a line!!! :-) really pleased I looked as iv got those tests and I kept thinking I had a line closer to the bit you wee on! Now I know where I'm looking! Still no sign of AF here on day 30 of my cycle (no idea if/when I ovulated though, just DTD throughout)

katecupoftea · 24/03/2014 16:34

MrsE no idea about the cb digis, not used one. The advice I should give is maybe leave it a couple of days before testing again but I wouldn't follow my own advice there if it was me so I don't blame you for testing daily!

The coffee and the wine sounds positive though! I opened wine yesterday. It was bloody gorgeous. No way in hell I'm upduffed.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 24/03/2014 16:49

Thankyou all for your encouraging comments. I'm so sorry I'm such a rubbish pants with links! I'm going to learn I promise but been on phone all day. I didn't post the previous tests as they were less photographic. But thought this looked good enough for a bus of opinions! Grin

I know it needs to get stronger if it's going to stand the distance. Dh is being all grumpy old man about it! Sad You'd think I'd been at it with the milkman! I think he doesn't want to get my hopes up.

sazzlehopes · 24/03/2014 16:53

MrsE looks like a line. Maybe give up on the frer and buy a super drug test. For me that was nice and clear, then if that shows up test with a diggie? Fx for you though that you keep getting positives!

And congrats writer, such lovely news. There are loads of organic safe nipple creams to use that don't have to be wiped off before feeding baby, and that helped me loads at the beginning...then your nipples just get tough and used to it so all will be well soon!!!

sazzlehopes · 24/03/2014 16:58

Also keeping the baby dragon penis thread running for anyone with bfps that want to come over and join us. Thread is here!

PolytheneGirl · 24/03/2014 17:02

Oh sazzle I cannot wait for the day I can join that thread. I was stood outside school at home time tonight grinning to myself thinking "if I get my Christmas baby I'm def going to have to get a dragon decoration for the Christmas tree!" Will be my own private joke!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 24/03/2014 17:10

I just thought, the other tests were positive at the same time of the day too, late morning, not fmu. I wonder whether there's some sort of peak for me then instead?!

Kate you're so right about the "leave it a few days" lol! Will do a few more cheapies tomorrow. If af hasn't arrived by Wednesday Thursday I will go and raid the chemist to buy one of each brand !

nicx240187 · 24/03/2014 17:45

Think I'm giving up. Had bad stomach cramps today and started spotting at lunch. Now think that this spotting is actually af after a 11 day holiday. Don't know right now wether to even go for my bloods tomorrow. Will see overnight if anything keeps going. :(

dubiesista · 24/03/2014 17:55

MrsE - looks like a pink line to me! Let us know how you get on with the cheapie tomorrow...I nipped to Morrisons on the way home to try their own brand - anyone tried them? I've been feeling off all day - soooooo crazy and almost to the point of hysteria! V hormonal and my belly feels so heavy! FX that these other tests give a BFP!
