Cupcake92 · 16/10/2014 17:22

Good luck 21 :) hope it's a BFP!
I'm deffo not testing early this month! Going to wait till day AF is due to save me any frustration lol :)

Thanks cupcake me either I'm lucky my cycles are short so I dont have to wait too long. Got the usual AF symtoms of cramps and painful boobs so not holding out too much help.

FRER are on BOGOF for a twinpack in superdrug. I actually would have bought some but they only had one lonely pack left so I have no tests in the house and will not buy any now unless AF is late.

Ducky23 · 16/10/2014 18:36

Yes cupcake no testing early! Smile

Fingers crossed 21! Feels like were due a BFP!

There's a chance my little man will show on this thread! I'm now 30+1 and am hoping to be induced at 37+4 Grin am goin to try everything to start myself off when I hit 37 weeks!

Woooo Ducky! Yes get on the birthing ball and eat all that pineapple and curry's lol! Grin
I couldn't get my labour started :( I tried so hard! I'll try even harder next time tho :)

DS is actually asleep!!!!! 1st night in about a week maybe he's gone to bed and fallen asleep early :)
Last night it was 10pm! Angry was not impressed!
Right where's the wine and chocolates! WineGrin

Ducky23 · 16/10/2014 20:42

Do birthing balls help? I didn't really know what they did lol Grin

Tbh I think it's a bit of a myth that stuff will start it off but I'm going to give it a good go! Grin

Treat yourself to a massive glass (or bottle) of wine cupcake! Hopefully you wont be able to drink it for long Wink

They are supposed to help a bit. I got told to bounce on it by the midwife. I'm not rele sure how it helps :s I was told to bounce on that and have baths! Lol!
I read raspberry leaf tea helps but I could never find that :s lol!!

Lime and soda water made me go into early labour hahaha! Grin

Ducky23 · 16/10/2014 21:21

Ha! Will try that too then cupcake!

Cupcake92 · 17/10/2014 09:41

I'm applying for a new job today. In a nursery: I used to work in one years ago, but the hours are a lot better and I can get a discount on childcare so id be saving a lot of money if I get it. And I can do my diploma whilst working there so really it's quite good :) and I could go and see DS on my lunch break! Hehe! :)

Ducky23 · 17/10/2014 09:48

Ooohhh good luck cupcake!!! Grin

Hopefully this new thread will bring us all good luck! Grin

Ducky bouncing on a ball helps move the baby downwards into position. How I know that I don't know, I've clearly been watching too many births on TV.

I've got to finish cleaning today PIL are staying here tomorrow. I'm quite worried about eating out as in still a bit vomitty sometimes, it's getting less likely but does still happen.

We're going out for a fancy lunch and spending Saturday out somewhere. Going to be all new for me, I've hardly been outside in months now.

Siarie · 17/10/2014 09:55

Good luck with your application cupcake!

Exciting day for you Steph!

Ducky23 · 17/10/2014 10:17

Hope you have a nice meal that stays down siarie!!! Grin When is your next scan?

OP posts:
Siarie · 17/10/2014 10:24

Next scan is Monday, for my 12 week. It will be the first time I've seen a midwife as the appointment combines booking, bloods and the scan.

DH obviously wants to come to the scan so he is going to have to sit through the lot. Which is quite annoying but I might need the company. They said it takes 3-4 hours? That seems really long

Ducky23 · 17/10/2014 10:37

That does seem really long! Maybe it's because mine was separate though Smile and they filled out a lot of things before they saw me as they had all my history.

And I know the scans can have long wait times which is a pain when they expect you to have a full bladder Shock I have been seen on time though apart from once Grin

OP posts:
Cupcake92 · 17/10/2014 11:06

Thanks Ducky thanks Siarie! :)

Oh wow yes that sounds a long time! But as u say Uve got all the booking In etc. I had mine separate too but when u put them all together that sounds about the right time :) exciting tho! And I do hope u manage to keep ur lunch down and enjoy it :) hope u have a nice time!

Ducky23 · 17/10/2014 11:16

Keep looking to see if Steph has posted! Grin
