All aboard the spooky train!

I can breathe a little sigh of relief this morning as dh handed the second set of contracts over to the broker at midnight last night on the m25, who is personally going to deliver them to the worst solicitor in the uk at 9am this morning, directly into his hand! I think you're all very right it's the move that's doing me in, not the soy. Feeling a bit more normal this morning Grin well as normal as MrsE ever gets.

Haha spinning you did make me chuckle! I've always toyed with the idea of implants but never sure in done breast feeding! Grin I may treat myself when I'm done. Although a 32F already so maybe I'll go for something else instead.

MrsG my mothers idea of contraception was to not allow me out with a guy for any longer than. 4 hours in the daylight and behave with decorum!!! My dad actually used that word to a 16 yr old! GrinGrin They were very strict but it back completely back fired on them. Shock

MrsExtraOrdinary · 12/09/2014 07:51

Cariad I did the dress thing last wkd. It does make you feel so much better and on top of the situation. Thanks

Dozygirl · 12/09/2014 08:38

Baby showers are one of the hardest things when you've had a mmc or are desperately ttc. I'm quite an open book so although I said I wouldn't ever tell ppl I was ttc once I started, I can't help but mention it to everybody coz I'm too excited about it all. Only now I'm stressing out too much because I've realised it's not all that easy to get pregnant.
I got upset yesterday too when I found out a work buddy was pregnant and she hadn't been wanting to get pregnant. It just seemed so unfair. DP just laughs at me when I get upset though :(
Fingers crossed to everybody this month that have been trying even longer xx

spinningirl10 · 12/09/2014 09:07

Cariad,there was nothing wrong with your post.

MrsE, I'm hoping I can still breast feed. I didn't have the implants when I had my dis but was told you can breast feed with them.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 12/09/2014 09:16

That would be great wouldn't it spinning. I know probability is much higher now than it used to be. I think I'll wait until I know I'm done as when I'm feeding I go up to an H cup !! I'd end up looking like Dolly Parton with implants AND milk!!! I dread to think what size they'd be!!! I might have them for my 40th though , baby or not! GrinGrin

Pikz · 12/09/2014 09:28

Spinning the soy arrives today so I have 3 days to think. I think I might try as ov is getting later and later.

Baby showers are the hardest. I refused to have one with Ds as I wanted to spare anyone else the pain I had of going to them when your desperate for a baby.

Love the implant discussion. Mine have shrunk since Ds

spinningirl10 · 12/09/2014 09:30

When I had mine done I thought I'd finished having children, my dp doesn't have children. He is the best stepfather, my ds loves him and he's so good with my 18year old dd, he really takes the time to listen to her which is something my ex dh never did. Wish we'd got together years ago!
I do wonder how big mine will get if I get a bfp, I'm a dd now

Aprilray · 12/09/2014 10:22

Happy Friday! CD4 here and AF is packing her bags Smile

Definitely go with the dress idea Cariad, I took myself off to a make up counter on Monday (had had massive temp drop and AF pains) got my make up done, spent too much on products and felt much better. Getting my hair cut tomorrow, have had the same style for as long as I can remember but it is time for a change.

Dozy, I am the same, told all my friends about ttc as I was so excited. To be honest I think they would have guessed anyway as I got married last year and have cut back on the Wine

Have a lovely weekend everyone!!

Hi Sunbathingcat, thanks for the stats. Am I going to be the eldest in this bus, lol?! Just to let you ladies know that I never act my age, but I do act like my shoe size, 37/5 jajajaja!

I've bought myself some softcups for this cycle as with all you ladies talking about them curiosity overcame me Grin. I've also stopped a few supplements I had been taking, especially the B6 50mg that has made me ovulate over a week late in 2 cycles.

Cariad, I so understand you right now. I was to go to a relatives baby shower this month which would have been rude of me not to attend but plucked up the courage to go. Mr Jay gave me a very supportive hug once I hang up the phone. Unfortunately the baby shower date changed and I was unable to go as I wasn't in the country. But your idea of the new dress and wine sounds fab, and we will be here throughout the day rooting for you Smile xx

xBlueberry88x · 12/09/2014 16:02

Cariad Id find the situation quite hard but sometimes you cant avoid these things, a new dress sounds like a good idea!!
Ive only told my mum (after about 13 months of trying), my brother and my best friend. I couldnt handle everyone knowing im a failure.

Welcome Dozy

Hi Pikz sorry your joining us!

MrsE Thank god the paper work is sorted and bless that guy driving to meet your DH lol.

Spinning Ive never thought about implants and milk lol....my boobs are big enough on their own dreading to think the size when pg.

Curly Age means nothing on this thread lol

AF is finally fucking off feels like shes been here forever lol cant wait to jump on dp

Trying the Paul Mckenna approach to weight loss (which ive done before and lost a stone), shame ive felt like shit this week my whole body aches so I havent exercised boooo.
If the gyane doc turns me away because I havent lost enough I think I may punch him!!!

Dozygirl · 12/09/2014 17:00

Thanks sunbathing
Luckily I'm a nurse so just realised that I can just pee in a urine pot while at work to test which is quite handy if I don't need to wait for it to be room temperature. Thanks for the advice.
Didn't want to become obsessive about it all but as DP also takes a lot of persuading to get in the mood for DTD I figured it was a good idea to get the opks to make sure we're doing it at the right time. Just need to figure out a way of not putting pressure on him to perform as that's also a difficult one haha.
Hope the baby shower isn't too upsetting for you cariad :)

MrsExtraOrdinary · 12/09/2014 17:14

I'm sure you'll all be pleased to hear I'm going to stop whining now, as we exchanged contracts today! Grin Hooray!

lucieloos · 12/09/2014 17:31

Hi there, is it ok if I take a seat on this bus please. I'm 12dpo and just had brown spotting when wiping. AF is due tomorrow so I'm about to be booted off sept bus.

Thanks for taking over stats sunbathing. Would you be able to add me on please.

Lucieloos, 35, TTC#1, cycle 7, bfp due 7th October

lucieloos · 12/09/2014 17:32

Congrats on the house MrsE at least that's one less thing to stress about!

gennibugs · 12/09/2014 18:05

woo hoo mrse great news!!! Bet you are relieved. onwards to completion now Smile

A baby shower would be my worst nightmare right now. hope you get through it on cariad. you will. we're all stronger than we give ourselves credit for.

sunbathing thank you for the stats.

blue good luck with Paul mckenna. Hope it works. its hard exercising when you feel rubbish.

Sorry to all those AF got. lucie I hope it isn't AF.

only my parents and my sister know we are trying. they've been wonderful. DH told a couple of his friends as he isn't close to his family. I'd rather he hadn't but I understand he needed someone to talk to.

MrsGingerbread · 12/09/2014 19:33

Sorry to the new arrivals from the September bus.

mrse Great about the house. Well done! Our bfps are die on the same day. We can compare hair on the tww! :)

blue you are NOT a failure! I need to do some healthy eating too, but a lot going on here at the moment. I am sure your appointment will go fine.

My stitches are quite sore today (after suspicious mole removal yesterday) - so dh being lovely doing the carrying around as we pack. We are off to Devon for a week, have packed up our ttc stuff, which now needs a shoebox of its own! How on earth do people do this by accident?

Will check in with you ladies when I can, but fx for everyone while I am away!

spinningirl10 · 12/09/2014 20:50

Yay MrsE, Great news on the contracts Grin

MrsG, have a lovely time in Devon.....the weather here is lovely at the moment!

Blueberry, you are not a failure, you will get your bfp one day, it might take longer than some but it will be worth the wait when it comesThanks

angelaham · 12/09/2014 21:05

Hey everyone i have been giving my marching orders and had to leave early so hoping im not too late to get a ticket for the october bus my cycles are all over the place , i had it on my Ovia app that i was 28 day cycle but looking back the last few months it has been 23 day cycle so i am hoping that altering the timing may help

my stats angelaham 32 ttc1, cycle 4 BFP 5th oct

allatonce99 · 12/09/2014 21:46

Hello to all joining us from the Sep bus.... I hope the October bus is the lucky one for us all!
Yippee MrsE glad to hear things are getting sorted

We need the penis dragon luck back.... Where are those pesky dragons hiding (wonders off to look behind the sofa and under the bed!)
Fx to everyone this month

angelaham · 12/09/2014 21:50

AutumnMagic · 13/09/2014 01:38

Whoop whoop MrsE I hope all runs smoothly from now on and you get your Bfp to start the next stage of your life in your new home!! SmileThanksWine

spinningirl10 · 13/09/2014 07:37

Morning Grin

Sorry af arrived Angela, fx this cycle.

Cd7 here, wondering if the soy will make me ov a bit later than my normal cd 10/11. Haven't had any side effects from taking them yet.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 13/09/2014 07:48

Spinning that's great you've had no side effects. I think the first month can be a bit trial and error. Last month it made my ov earlier, which was good for me, but moved soy a day earlier this month. So waiting to see what that does.,Af has only just properly buggered off, 7 days indeed is just rude! It should balance it a bit for you, so in theory push it back a day or 2. But if if doesn't maybe try a day later in the cycle next month.
