Obviously, this is takes a lot of skill and loads of time and patience to train the chicks to stand this still and look sharpish for the camera. I wouldn't think you could just muster this up in an afternoon, so please don't attempt it. You'd just look foolish Wink

eskimolaura · 06/04/2015 16:23

And yes, please can you send some people out to 'take care' of my AF. That's once I have located it. Thinking of getting the St Bernard's on the case.

Off to wash-up and then I have a mountain of clean laundry to put away. Maybe my AF is under there somewhere...

Pikz · 06/04/2015 16:40

Can the same people finding Eskimos Af find my ov?

mrsb0710 · 06/04/2015 16:55

eskimo I may have your af here - I've more than enough for one.

Waiting for DH to get home so we can go to the shops. I need beer, and cake, oh, and something slightly nutritious for dinner.

spinningirl10 · 06/04/2015 17:07

Purdey, yes dp is all
Up for trying AI, I'm hoping it will mean that we will have more sex outside of ov time and therefore better sperm! If af arrives I shall get some syringes. We won't give up but I want my bfp now! We've said we'll keep trying until Xmas and then stop but I wouldn't go on the pill so I'm not sure it will be easy to completely stop. I agree with modern technology, The children can teach usSmile and yes we can do it, positive thinking and lots of spermGrin

Sparkly, thank you, we will keep going and we will get our baby!
You had a nice temp rise yesterday but as we know, there's nothing we can do but sit and wait.
Back to original plans now ref funeral. Leave early Friday morning.

Victoria, is it nearly time for your holiday?

Oh Purdey, you're fasting nowHmm make sure you have a twirl or two in your bag for when bum cam is over.

Sparkly, I wish everyone was on the same bus as well. I can't keep up with two!

Eskimo, bet those cakes are yummy!

Oops got to help ds with something!

DizzyMerry · 06/04/2015 17:10

I joined the April bus when AF arrived, prior to this one becoming the megabus so have been hopping on and off both. It's hard to keep up with two buses.

Good luck with the fasting purdey you will need it

Sorry you're having a bad day mrsb Flowers but hopefully things will settle down and you will soon be gearing up to dtd and grabbing that well deserved bfp

Sorry AF arrived aux it's disappointing but you will get there.

I went with sil to see her friend's 3 day old baby today. She had struggled for around 8 years with one mc. Had her IVF miracle and they are over the moon. Baby is so cute and she really deserves this happiness. I'm so broody though.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Nomio230 · 06/04/2015 17:51

Dizzy, I love hearing stories like that. It gives me hope that I might end up with a baby at some point!

Mrsb, sorry to hear you are feeling so ill. Sometimes AF gets me like that too. I recommend chocolate, a hot water bottle & crappy TV.

Lovely looking cakes, Eskimo. I really hope the tablets don't give you any side effects, and that AF finally shows up.

I am also curious as to how you got into the chick training business. Can you get them to stand on other items of food, or are they cake specific?

Lovely Sparkly, we have missed you the last couple of days. I wish you would join our FB group, but understand why you don't want to. (Because we would all find out you are actually a dirty old man. Shock)

Sparkly123 · 06/04/2015 17:53

Dizzymerry it's stories like that we should really try and take on board. I can't comprehend trying that long with one mc, that's a tower of strength right there. So glad your friend has her miracle baby now. And so hopeful for all. It can happen! Easter GrinTwo buses is hard you are right!!

Spins glad you are on original plan!! Can't believe we are both at end of TWW!! I feel a bit meh today, which is prob because generally I'm not feeling well from the madness of the last few days and mixed with the imminent BFP/AF. I want to keep hopeful! But like you, I have no symptoms.... Yet! I hope I didn't OV later than I thought on cd 14..!! Did you do much decor today?

mrsb comfort eating at it's best! Go for it! Easter GrinCake

eskimo loving the Cake !!!

Sparkly123 · 06/04/2015 18:01

Purple sorry for AF lovely. We shall structure a new plan of attack this cycle!! Easter Wink

Purds you domestic goddess you. That cake does sound immense. Lucky dh. I approve your plan. Stuff yourself!!! I was thinking your investigation was Wednesday. So it's Tomor! Joyous. Get those twirls in you. I trust someone bought you a twirl egg yeh? How's Ndolly?

eskimo sounds like you had a lovely weekend. Good luck with progesterone. You can do this! Blooming AF. Where the 'eck is she!!?? Flowers

Hi all,

I hope you're all enjoying the lovely bank holiday.

Thank you Frog - I appreciate your kind words. I am really hoping there is something going on inside too.

Sparkly travelling to Italy does sound fabulous. I havent read anything about mc due to flying but I do think I may be reluctant to fly in the very early stages. At this point in time, we are browsing Dubrovnik but DH wants us to head to Borneo, Laos and Vietnam in January.

Eskimo thank you for the flowers. Smile I love family orientated weekends - very blissful.

Purdie, you are so very sweet. I think I am just having a 'woe is me' day - tired, nauseous and just a bit fed up. Just taking a quick break from the weeks food and clothes prep. How is your lovely little tot today?

I can't blame you Purdie - I love buying seeds. We grow a lot of chilli plants and the odd gerbera. What do you grow? Hoghton Tower looks fabulous, and the unusual plant sale sounds interesting. I am quite tempted to grow some of these www.thompson-morgan.com/vegetables/vegetable-seeds/salad-seeds/cucumber-crystal-apple/gww4953TM

I missed the gym this morning, stayed home and ate Easter chocolate instead! Gym kit is packed ready for tomorrow though. Smile

How is everyone else else doing? What cycle days are we all on and how are we all feeling?

CD24 here. Nothing urgent to report.

Riceicle1 · 06/04/2015 18:18

Thanks for the new bus, ordered myself a lovely swinging chair for the garden today, I can imagine myself reclined in the sunshine, sipping on a cold drink and rubbing my bump in the summer (because I WILL have a bump by then)

victoria401 · 06/04/2015 18:23

Don't worry sparkly, you're not missing much on fb. Just sharing pictures of Poldark etc!

spinning I'm goin on holiday May 5th. Still a few weeks yet.

spinningirl10 · 06/04/2015 18:43

Victoria, snap, we also go away on May 5thGrin

Riceicle, new garden chair sounds lovely and of course it will be perfect for you and your bump to relax inSmile

Merry, what a lovely ending for your friend, she's really had a tough journey.

Pixa, sorry you're having a down day, has the sun been shining there? It's been a beautiful day here, always makes me smile to see the sun.

Sparkly, I'm getting there. I had to fill lots of cracks with decorators caulk, I'm a dab hand with that! I've got one coat on the walls but then ds and I went to see my bro and his sis and we sat in the garden while the kids bounced on the trampoline.
Sorry you're not feeling great, you've had a busy couple of days. Get your self a green juice. I made a lovely smoothie today with banana, blueberries, strawberries and kale, so niceSmile

Purdey, I see you're not fasting yet. Enjoy the cake, I must give it a go, it sounds lovely.

Sparkly123 · 06/04/2015 19:18

Pixa well yeh that's the thing we would go in June to Italy.. So if u get preggers in next few cycles it would be early stages so Mmm.. Dunno! I've heard Dubrovnik is lovely!! Hope you are ok and feeling a bit brighter. We all have these down days Flowers you will be back on form again and upbeat, I know it!

Rice chair sounds great. As does the bump image! Easter Shock

victoria not long until you go then!great!! I really must get into Poldark..!!!

Spinning gosh you really sound like you are a dab hand at decorating!! Good work!! Green smoothies yes! Easter Grin

mrsb0710 · 06/04/2015 20:19

Steak sandwiches, beer, and sticky toffee pudding. Feeling a bit brighter :)
Cake for you ladies too, maybe -.if there's any left over.

Sparkly123 · 06/04/2015 20:19

Frog, wow that's fantastic, so pound land wools ok then? Not that I can knit!Smile

spinningirl10 · 06/04/2015 20:29

Ooh MrsB, love sticky toffee pudding with ice cream or that extra thick double creamGrinGrin

purdiepie · 06/04/2015 20:37

Pixa, those crystal apples look like my ex's ball-sack when his pubes were just growing back. Can I please have details of the plants you bought today? The tot is back to her rambunctious self. I returned to the pharmacy in disguise sent the husband and got the liquid Piriton the chemist said he wouldn't advise. It's alright for him; he doesn't have to live with a miniature snot machine.

Eskimo, you're hilarious! Don't them there chicks shit on your icing?

purdiepie · 06/04/2015 20:39

Just sayin'...

Pikz, I'm on it

MrsB, are you smashed yet, m'lovely? WineWineWine

Dizzy, I am more amazed that your friend allowed visitors after three days Shock I banned everyone except close family for two whole weeks. I think her story is wonderful Smile

Riceicle, is this your chair?

Frog! Clever girl. I love it Envy

eskimolaura · 06/04/2015 20:49

Lovely blanket Frog :)

I want a 'bump' chair Rice!

Nomio The chicks are season specific I'm afraid; however, I can also train hearts, but only for the first two weeks of February, and elves, but they have to start in November in order to be ready for late December. The only ones I have failed with are witches. I'm afraid we never have Halloween cake because they just won't stay still. Angry I think I just have a bad track record with enticing any kind of witch at all... Hmm

Thank you sparkly I just have no idea where she is... Will get the pills started and have another fake bleed. Harumph.

Melon I'm sorry for lack of AF. I know how you feel and it's just so frustrating ain't it?!

Glad you're feeling a little better mrsb Enjoy your pudding!

DH and I went through his wardrobe earlier and did a load of sorting. I persuaded him to be ruthless and get rid of a lot of stuff. Now I feel rather envious that his wardrobe is all organised and tidy and mine is bursting at the seams. I'm going to have a go at mine tomorrow, but I don't think I'll manage to be as good with it... Hmm
