Don't know if I actually slept last nigh Shock between my multiple toilet trips, which took a while, our bed is quite low and I look like a tortoise stuck on it's back trying to get up Confused, then I had hip pain, then just plain insomnia, then my hands swelled up and my rings got stuck Confused I don't mind any of this as long as my baby is ok!

H is being gross and walking round snotting and Flemming everywhere. Ergh. He's also have me his cold Angry

Cupcake were your boobs v sore as you didn't breastfeed? When I told my mw that I was going to ff she went off on one about how much pain I will be in and I can't do anything about it Blush

How is everyone today?

We had our gender/sex scan at 16 weeks and it's a little girl. I'm still going to ask the NHS hospital if they don't mind checking while they check everything else.

Pretty confident though as she was as flat as a pancake and nothing holding anything down (the hands were well away). But why not ask while I'm there.

I've got to pack and prepare everything for our holiday this week. So much washing to do and ironing which I hate.

Sorry to hear you haven't slept much, lack of sleep isn't good you'll need all your energy if you go into labour xx

Ducky23 · 25/11/2014 09:31

Ohh I remember now! Smile You broke the trend Grin

That's what I did, I has the private scan and then had it confirmed at my nhs scan Smile but there was no denying he was a boy Blush

I am fed up with DH this morning and tonight. He just thinks he knows everything and is always right. God forbid anyone might not share his opinions. Angry

LuluJakey1 · 25/11/2014 19:21

Thank goodness he is off out to the pub quiz with his mates.

Ducky23 · 25/11/2014 19:42

Let me know if they have any tips for hip pain tori! Grin A week before x mas how exciting Smile

Lulu, typical man... At least he should win the quiz with always being right! Grin

Yes that's true Ducky, he'll be able to pontificate to his heart's content along there - about sweet FA as usual.

He gave me a hug before he left and said sorry but I just wanted him out and to have the house to myself. Have made some soup and had it for tea. He's having something at the pub.

Cupcake92 · 25/11/2014 20:53

Tori that'd be so lovely to find out just before Xmas!! :D

Lulu bless u, enjoy a free house while I can! :) have a soak in the bath :)

I'm so tired tonight. Can't wait for bed. DS is still awake as he's feeling unwell but he looks as if he's ready to go to bed now.

LuluJakey1 · 25/11/2014 22:00

What is the matter with DS Cupcake? And how are you feeling now?

I am in bed, in the other bedroom, next to the baby's room. I don't want to sleep with DH tonight. I want a cool, undisturbed, quiet, night. Have closed the door so he gets the message. Fed up with him.

Just feel really pissed off today. Would like to have my baby and look after him myself. Don't want him growing into a football mad man who can't see his nose for his arse. DH can go back to Yorkshire the way I feel tonight.

Cupcake92 · 25/11/2014 22:27

Lulu he has a nasty cold and very sniffly but I've put lots of snuffle babe on him and he's fast asleep. I feel completly fine now thank u :)
And Lulu hormones will be going crazy in u right now, I'm sure by morning u will be madly in love with DH again :) just get a peaceful nighta sleep.

And I know I shouldn't be checking anything this month as I'm taking a month out but I noticed on CD 13 I had ewcm and I had brown blood in it... Now I've never had that before. Anyone know what that could have been? :s all I wanted was a normal cycle so when we try next cycle it'll be fresh :)

LuluJakey1 · 25/11/2014 22:45

I don't know what that could be Cupcake. I don't know much about any of this really.

I am so cross I honestly would like DH to just go somewhere else. I know you are right and it will be my hormones but I am so angry with him; he's been really pompous and self- centred and full of it.

Ah well, need to stop going over it if I want to get some sleep Baby has settled down so I might get a few hours.

Night night.

Ducky23 · 25/11/2014 23:08

Your body does some strange things cupcake! Have you been DTD at all?

Lulu hope you feel better in the morning.

I'm hoping to get maybe a bit of sleep tonight! Having another anxious day Confused lets hope tomorrow is more positive!

OP posts:
Cupcake92 · 26/11/2014 07:42

Hope ur feeling better today Lulu. Flowers

And u too Ducky, hope ur feeling less anxious Flowers and yes we have been dtd just when we feel like it. Oh well it's justbanother weird thing to add to the list of strange things my body does Smile

Siarie · 26/11/2014 09:38

If you had that on CD14 that may be implantation bleeding. Depending when you may have ovulated, but I wouldn't read too much into it and just have a nice relaxing cycle.

Cupcake92 · 26/11/2014 11:32

_i very much doubt implantation bleeding as I wouldn't have O'd straight after AF. But as u say siarie Im not looking into it :) im having a lovely relaxed cycle and I'm feeling so much better in myself this cycle. Just so ready to get going next cycle as I feel rele positive about the next one :)

21questions · 26/11/2014 17:20

Glad you are feeling positive cupcake for next cycle.

Hope you are feeling a little less anxious today ducky. Have you had any more bh?

Well we have not done very well this cycle with dtd think we are just knackerd to be honest we both have a lot on. On day 14 now and have not had a positive opk yet which is really late for me but did get ewcm day 10 so who knows?

Did you get a good night's sleep in the end lulu?

Ducky23 · 26/11/2014 17:26

I never know about cm 21, I seemed to get it before my positive opk too, maybe it's a sign that you will ov soon?

Any more blood cupcake?

I have had another anxious day today Confused just want him here now. A few more bh, my belly looks v low now though so hopefully he's getting ready. I have also just read a story in the paper which has absoloutely floored me! I was crying about it for ages then id stop for a few minutes and it would pop back in my head again and id have another break down! These bloody hormones!!

Cupcake92 · 26/11/2014 19:18

21 are u temping? If u have had a temp rise and ewcm then u Ov'd opks arent brilliant and u can miss ur surge by just hours. Every time I have ewcm I ov that day or day after.

No more blood Ducky it was literally just that one time. Very weird.
And don't worry Ducky it's not long till he's here! Before u know it ill be updating us that he's been born!! :) :)

21questions · 26/11/2014 19:39

No not temping cupcake considering it if I don't get my bfp though! Do you temp?

I hope I ov'd cd 10 because that's the last time we dtd. Really poor effort on dtd this month. Didn't do my first opk until day 11 expecting it to be positive.

Ducky23 · 26/11/2014 20:06

Sooo confused I was just at te shops and I felt very ahem... Wet down there. I did go quite sweaty all over so not sure if it was that or my waters Confused

Midwife told me if I feel like tht to have a sniff Blush so I did but it doesn't smell of anything... Have put a pad on to see what happens Confused

With dd my waters didn't go until just before she arrived so I don't know what to expect

Any of you that have dc have any idea?

21questions · 26/11/2014 20:12

Sorry ducky I didn't go into natural labour so I don't know.

I'd say keep an eye on it see if it increases. Are you having any pains?

Ducky23 · 26/11/2014 20:15

I've had a couple of bh but nothing out of the ordinary Confused
