The Bumsnet/Angry Pubes Bus #2... BFPs for the taking!

[Sparkly123]

Hi all! I came to catch up with you lot today and see the bus is full... Do we want another Bumsnet?! Are we standing united?! I thought I would start another incase it is needed!

I know melon don't know which one is more apt! By that stage if it hasn't showed how many days late would you be??

Tessie, wahoooooo congratulations you lovely woman!!! Ah I'm so pleased for you

Ha! Mummy I could not find my thermometer this morning so I haven't temped either. Hoping Ov is tomorrow.

Butter sounds like a good idea, how rude of the knitters not to bring egg cosies, tea cosies scarfs etc in exchange for that cake

Dizzy B&J cookie dough is a staple food in this house. I want to try the save my bowl, someone was talking about it here a week or so ago.

Chopsface, I still haven't twigge... Who are you?? feeling super confused

Aww melon sending lots of hugs your way. Hopefully things sort themselves out before go apt on 29th

Starting to panic less. Analysing back, my 22 day cycle was when I was ill (kidney infection) so that could be related, which in hindsight is probably the cycle I discounted because I was far too ill to DTD.

This is a complete rollercoaster of emotions. Sorry for being dramatic ladies.

We've had a "lie in" too!! Like haven't temped this morn or done a OPK yet. Fx for Ov tomorrow

Loving all of these lie-ins.

Pixa you aren't being dramatic, I wish I could say something useful. But I'm not cycle length savvy. I'll just send you some hugs to make do until someone who knows what they are talking about pops along!!

Lots of lie ins!! My dp is working and left at 6.20 this morning so no chance here. Did have a sleep lie in though as DS didn't get up until 8! Watching cartoons in my pjs now after eating half an Easter egg then we are going for a walk with a friend.

I hate morning sex. Everyone stinks. Chewing on morning knob cheese for breakfast is not my idea of a good weekend.

pixa you're not being dramatic at all, this is the place to voice any concerns. I only wish I could be of a bit more use like some of the more knowledgeable ladies on here! takes out notepad and listens to the wise ones

Haha glad others have enjoyed lie ins too! DH was out late yesterday so had to make up for it this morning plus we just got a bit carried away

mummy your day sounds lovely!

tessie CONGRATULATIONS! How exciting, very pleased for you! I wish you a very healthy and happy 9 months.

Daisy my DP drinks a fair amount. Before Christmas it was a LOT. I never counted the units because I didn't want to know the answer. Around December, I started cutting down on my own alcohol intake, making it very clear to him that this because of TTC. I also told him frankly that I was worried about his swimmers with the amount he drank. I also said that I thought he wouldn't be able to cut down as he was far more reliant on booze than me so didn't know what to do about it. It caused a massive argument but it worked, partly because he is a stubborn git so had to prove to me I was wrong. He is now around the safe 21 unit mark and has lost weight and feels better generally - something to spur him on. Good luck to you with DH.

Baker there are some wonderful flour less chocolate cake recipes around. I made this once, split it, filled with chocolate mousse and decorated with berries - delish www.culinary.net/recipes/RecipeDetail.aspx?ID=4220&CourseName=Cakes+%26+Cheesecakes&CourseID=19 Or for something a bit less sickly I made this once with rice flour instead of normal and it was great sweetapolita.com/2011/04/zingy-orange-ginger-carrot-cake-with-white-chocolate-icing/ Good luck!

No lie ins here - woke up to find DP has already upped and gone out somewhere!

Thank you so so much ladies, I am so shocked but over the moon

Sorry night I couldn't wait any longer!!!

Had problems with MN site after I posted pic on here so didn't have a chance to post over on April thread but I'm not sure it is the right time to post this with everything that's been going on over there so will wait a bit and now April thread has filled up...is there going to be another April bus?

I'm a bit confused by Clearblue saying 2-3 weeks too...FF told me to test on 9th but it got my ov date wrong (I think) so maybe it has just tipped into the next time bracket if that makes sense?

I'm sorry, I haven't had a chance to catch up properly what with getting last things packed and the fur baby leaving but will do asap.

Maybe it's twins ^

juney you took the words right out of my mouth

It'll be our first bumsnet twins!!

April Fred! I know I'm not a regular on there these days but someone had to set one up so the shy ones have somewhere to board after the onslaught!

Thank you, thank you, thank you for all your supportive messages. I've been out doing parkrun (think I smashed my PB this morning - woohoo!) so just catching up on the forum. Thanks all!

And well done everyone who had a 'lie-in' this morning!

Will catch up on the four pages I have just missed and try and tackle the other four on April
is it worth it?

but for now-

TESSIE love!!!! You have only gone and done it!!! Congrats lovely this is fantastic news.so so pleased for you.and what great timing with your trip home!?! Perfection I would say?!
And a great uplifting BFP for our FANTASTIC, SUPPORTIVE, WELCOMING bus!!!!

Awww that's kind of you mummy I've jumped off so many buses this month I dunno where to sit but I think bumsnet has settled down I'll stay here.

I'm hoping I can create next new thread as I finish work at 1pm!!

You want to create the bumsnet bus? I'm sure we can leave that to you!

Yes please!

We just need 55 more posts to fill up this one... wonder how long that'll take?!

Haven't read back yet but came on to say a massive congratulations to tessie. Such wonderful news to start the day with. I'm so pleased for you

No!!! Don't say that Juney!

Thank you Sparkly, I know, lovely timing with coming home today...

Right, really must go and finish packing, we leave the house in less than an hours time...

Oh and Boris you're right, I might have to go out and buy a sex dress today. Just packed him off to Southampton for the day to go to the football. Tomorrow we have the grand prix, Manchester derby and golf. I'll be lucky to get a word out of him!

Ladies, I promise you that my no so Mr Grey husband is a well educated and intelligent man. I also promise you that the below quote is 99% accurate.

My BBT thermometer arrived today. Husbands response was so is that the thermometer that is being stuck up there? it's not joining the party.

That's right ladies. He thought it was a foof thermometer. Or in his mind, a foofometer.
