Purdey, dd used to like the 'That's Not My' books, but we always had to stifle the sniggering when reading "That's not my princess, her fan is too fluffy" . Try saying that quickly Grin

GreatSmile

#STATS# age 31, ttc #1, cycle 4, BFP due 25/04/15

I haven't taken any action to chart ovulation just yet (but I'm researching this like a madwoman now). We have just got back from a week long relaxing holiday; fingers crossed we hit around the right time in my cycle as there was lots of dtd Blush.

Bahahah! I love children's books that slide adult jokes in.

Pikz · 11/04/2015 22:01

Sparkly and Tessie so many congratulations Grin

Pixa · 11/04/2015 22:03

Welcome new people. < waves >

I am hoping to have a mega catch up with you all tonight or tomorrow. Just thought I would drop in and say that I hope you're all having a wonderful weekend. Smile

DizzyNorthernBird · 11/04/2015 22:08

butter I don't think anyone could have summed it up better than that Smile

melon was it your DH who got the stress fracture from running?

sparkly it's been said so many times on here before but you're such a tower of strength, when the rest of us would be in bits you somehow manage to put a positive spin on things, no matter how much you must be hurting inside. We're all rooting for your bean, I hope so much these are just early pregnancy symptoms.

victoria I was convinced chops face was glitterati!!!

alpha buy a book called 'taking charge of your fertility' everything you need to know about charting is in there. It's my bible!

chopsface · 11/04/2015 22:10

Hi twinkle welcome. 49 is great for a day 21 blood hun, it needs to ve over 30 to confirm ovulation. But how on earth did you wangle a blood test after so few months ttc?! A lot of ladies on the buses have been denied until at least 12 months or longer! Shock

juneybean · 11/04/2015 22:16

I've made another tab on the bumsnet for the upduffed so we have one sheet for TTCers and one for upduffed but will keep newly upduffed on TTCers so everyone can see their new BFPs!!

Just popping in to say AMAZING news for Tessie and Sparkly. So overjoyed for you both. Flowers and Cake all round!

purdiepie · 11/04/2015 22:17

Welcome, Alpha! Have you met Omega? That's a shit joke. You'll find a few of them if you stay. Plus loads of kindly, funny and supportive birds like me Tell us your story have you been to prison? Smile

P.s..you can call me Lieutenant Purdie. Or Your Royal Highness, if you like. Anything that denotes leadership or royalty.

purdiepie · 11/04/2015 22:18

Alpha, crossed posts, sorry. You sound like a filthy bitch. You're in.

purdiepie · 11/04/2015 22:21

Beautiful Spinãta, how was the funeral? In terms of closure? Did the children get any? Bloody sad, all of it. Am I very wrong to feel sorry for the psycho GF? I am was a psycho. We are very misunderstood, you know.

TwinkleStars15 · 11/04/2015 22:21

chops I have a very good GP it seems! It was my first visit to him. I was having an iron and thyroid test so I guess he thought it wouldn't hurt to do it at the same time. He also referred dh for a sperm sample but he can't get an appointment until June.

I'm mega anxious about this whole ttc situation and really thought I'd be someone who was chilled and 'let nature happen' but I'm not. All I've ever wanted is to be a mum but I've also always had this feeling that it won't happen I know I know what feeling?!

sparkly I've been a lurker for a while now and have been reading your story, I'm sooo pleased for you and really hope that the next few weeks are not too stressful for you Flowers

Is anyone poas tomorrow?

purdiepie · 11/04/2015 22:26

Does anyone else get the feeling that Bruce Willis' youngest tot, Tallulah, will come out as transgender? She's halfway there already, surely...

chopsface · 11/04/2015 22:27

Ha! When me and dh came off contraception we were going to have the relaxed approach too! It didn't last long! Now I have a full on obsession taking over my entire existence! Wahahahahaha!

I think the poas party is off tomorrow I'm afraid :-(

chopsface · 11/04/2015 22:29

She looks mean !

juneybean · 11/04/2015 22:29

purds not sure about Bruce Willis' kiddo but definitely Brangelina's Shiloh/John!

Chops I could have completely written the same post about it taking over my entire existence. It's crazy how quickly it escalates.

purdiepie · 11/04/2015 22:31

Mary! Hilairballs! Grin

Welcome Twinkle (can we get much more disco on here?). You'll love it on this bus, especially as we're going to go to Blackpool for three nights soon - all of us sleeping on the top deck among the coconuts and lube. Those of us who will be ovulating will be having sex with a complete stranger in the bogs of every pub down the Prom. It will be like Summer Holiday but with a lot more spunk Smile

purdiepie · 11/04/2015 22:38

Do you know what? I distinctly remember cycle five being a shitter, back when I was trying to conceive number one. No idea why five months was bad but it felt suddenly like this wasn't going to be such an easy ride, you know? It is such a short time, though, in the grand scheme of conception stats. Please have faith, newbies - and oldies! I'll bet Tessie and Pug and Heir and Fifi all felt exactly the same, that 'it's just not going to happen for me'...

Heir, I forgot to mention you and how more-than-fond of you we are. You okay? Thanks

Look at me being all benevolent and cherubic

purdiepie · 11/04/2015 22:40

Juney, I'm nodding vehemently at Shiloh John. Good call. Any more? I like this game: Name The Future Transsexual.

DizzyNorthernBird · 11/04/2015 22:41

Am I the only one who thoughts she had a used Jonny hanging out of her gob? Did a double take there.

That androgynous look is tres fashionable according to Americas Next Top Model. Not that I watch that shite. Really, I don't........Hmm
