Bumsnet: we're raising our bums after TTC and waiting for our Angry Pubes.

[purdiepie]

Do you like feeling left out of a group? Do you enjoy being marginalised and isolated and picked-on? How about a good bullying? If so..you're in t'wrong place, cock, coz this 'ere is the TTC thread where you feel loved, embraced, encouraged, wanted, lusted after, admired, respected, thought-of with fondness, missed when you're away. We will even put up with your lazy, selfish bastard of a husband who would rather watch Chelsea romp through the Premiership than put a baby in your tum-tum.

Absolutely any old slag welcome, unless you already have a baby in your tum-tum and we're about as familiar with you as a condom. You can get lost

t'STATS, innit

I'm joking of course. I'm sure everyone here only uses alcohol for the right reasons to get pissed

I have nothing to say on the alcohol- I don't drink it. Ha. But I do like a smooth garden eh Purds ?! Ha ha

I don't like alcohol. Even before my alcoholic ex, I never really liked the taste of it. I do like a clean strip of grass on my pitch though.

Rofl eskimo

That's the way Eskimo !

Ladies, two hour drive back home from Scarborough so hoping I have some time to catch up unless DH labels me as being ignorant

I will try and have a bit of a read back!

As for me, DH made my ovaries melt several times. The trip has been good. Not as much shagging as needed and missed temping for the past two days but did DTD twice in twelve hours and I have a feeling I will get lucky again tonight!

Glittery pleased you're getting to move forward. I know what you mean about having it rammed down your throat. I am just over the BMI but my doctor and the nurses bring it up every time I get weighed. It does really upset me. I got a really good explanation of how the weight on the upper half of your body impacts your knees and hips - the human body is incredible. I have a list of "allowed" foods from my PT, I would be happy to send them over but it's quite a restrictive list because I primarily eat a pescetarian diet.

Spinning how are you?

Sparkly I hope the wait is going okay. I have thought about you a lot this weekend.

Purdie Did I see you got the job? Well done! 't is fabulous news. Although, I am envious - my IT department isn't sexy at all.

I will continue to read back... Sorry for those I have missed.

And... I like the special occasional drink (but quite rare) & a smooth garden which is a nightmare to maintain

Afternoon all

Still on my phone and although I've read back I can't remember much!

Glittery, please don't call yourself fat and disgusting. You are a lovely person. You can lose weight, yes it's hard but you can do it. Focus on the end goal and Find something that works for you. WW or SW may work well with the weekly weigh in incentive and the group support. Try and fit in some exercise. I know I've said it before but 30 day shred really works, yes it's hard at first but do what you can and you'll be surprised at how fast you improve. It's only 20 minutes so easy to fit in. If that's not your thing then try walking/running. Oh you said you used to run didn't you. Bet you'd get back into it in no time. We're all here to support and cheer you on and sorry you didn't get your dildocam.

Eskimo, yay for your results. Great news. Hope the bleed arrives soon.

Juney, nice lie in. Hope you can sort out a date soon

Blimey it's freezing! Sunny but so windy. Sat in the park with ds and his friends. Hoping to tire them out so that they sleep tonight!

Haha Eskimo, a clean strip of grass on your pitch, me too

Pixa, your evening sounds lovely. I'm good thank you, just cold!

purds yes it does. Alcohol is was my escape. A bad day - vodka. Baby bomb - vodka. Being skint - vodka.

thank you for all your support and advice. You lovely bunch are so supportive and not judgemental at all. tis what I really need right now. Love you all!

I am doing weight watchers and really enjoying it, I write down ALL of what I eat and point, got the app on my phone, a note book, I carry the books with me, I have stocked up on the meals in case I get caught out. It sounds like a chore but it's been a welcome distraction to poas's.

I just didnt expect the dr to zone in so much on my weight - especially with DH sitting there. He knows I am trying to lose weight so for him to hear me having to listen and nod and agree to being called obese I could feel him cringe for me.

I have also been prescribed orlistat which I take three times a day so I cant even eat anything naughty if I wanted to or I would have an accident! lol

Pixa - haha you go girl! you get those sperms!!

xx

glittery just been stalking your profile pictures, you are curvy-licious and womanly with a gorgeous happy face. I've seen some massive women with pushchairs lately, you're nothing like them. Good luck with the new healthy living though x

thank you chops. xxx
*wipes tear stained face and stops googling liposuction
How are you feeling?

Juney - I have been thinking about you alot lately, (wahey!) when are you due AF, how are you? have you heard/seen much of Mr Bollocks? Whats the plan for the next couple of months?

Purdie - you start your job monday dont you? Good luck (you wont need it) How is your mam?

Sparkly - hope you are distracting yourself!!

Purdie Work paid for the course , I have to go on the training every three years, the Trainer was hysterical, I seriously have not laughed so much in along time, he was very thorough and was the far best course i have been on for the first aid, We have it next week, which i don't mind as he was so entertaining and it is such a worth while course,

Lucie wishing you all the luck in the world for tomorrow and will be eager to here back in how it goes, good luck!!!

Spinning I hate being cold. I feel for you. Time to whack the heating on! I really did have a lovely time thanks, DH wowed me again. Sat at our favourite little restaurant which we only get to every year, sometimes every two years, and he said "Just think, next time we come here we could be ordering off of the Bambino menu or have a bump" then he went on to say "Just had the greatest idea, when its time to break the news, we can have a big family meal and then put a reserved sign on a high chair" swoooooon. He had me at Bambino menu.

Glittery it sounds like you have such a good plan to move forward! You sound so driven just give the doctor the "Did you mean to be so rude?" head tilt, if he ever does it again and thank you, it's CD9 here which means we really do need to get the Sperm supply built up!

How is everyone else doing?

Glittery One of my closest friends has a three week old baby and she is a big big girl, she takes the piss out of herself all the time about her weight, she is a very say it how it is kind of girl, before she got pregnant she was doing the herbalife shakes to loose weight, i am not saying to try that you have to try herbs life but to point out that she lost about roughly a stone in weight and she fell pregnant, so it can be done. Loosing weight can be easy when you have the mind set to do it , i have never been overly heavy but i wanted to loose weight a couple of years ago and used my fitness pal to track what i ate and count calories and fat intake , as i was focused on loosing the weight i was loosing a pound each week steadily until i lost over a stone and a half, i felt much better in myself as i was eating fresh food, meat fruit and veg, the only thing that does not hep is when you have a holiday as you tend to relax and when you try to get back to focus it can be hard, i am starting to pile on the weight that i lost and find it really hard since Easter to get back on track, you can do this and if you slip into bad habits then thats fine, dont beat yourself up, just wipe it off and get back on it, thats what i am trying to do, goodluck!!!

Aww glittery thanks for thinking of me. Think AF is due 26th April but haven't contacted Mr bollocks since the meeting! Suppose I should have text to thank him haha but did feel a bit seedy. No plans for next few months other hand getting laid but I'm still going to hang around like a bad smell!

Deffo don't go juney! I guess your ttc plans will be put on hold if you get with this gal? Has she said what her views on parenthood are yet?

I also rate my fitness pal! It really shows you and shocks you what calories you actually consume in a day and makes you think and change! Be very honest though!

Pixa you lucky lady! Sounds fantastic! Glad you had a lovely weekend. How did the dress go down?! I've said it before and I'll say it again.. Your Mr Grey sounds great.. What a romantic man he is!! Love that high chair comment- so sweet!! A smooth garden!! Wooo! Yes! Take that Purdita ! Thank you for thinking of me! I'm holding it together for now

Spinners do you do MN on laptop? I only ever use my phone! I've heard good results from that 30 day shred too. Boo to the coldness! It's a Gorg day up here blue sky sunshine and warm enough.

Glitter WW sounds like a full time job! Well played lovely, you are committed!

Juney I have everything crossed for you my lovely, as always

Juney saw your dating news. It sounds like you're both so comfortable and natural with each other when talking about stuff. Fingers crossed for you.

Sparkly Thanks, dress seemed to go down well (but it was a bit tight in the right places so I felt humongous!). I had my make up done in the spa too though so I felt great after that and submissive DH was as sweet as ever. Yes to a smooth lady garden, I keep saying that I will grow some 'topiary' because it's a nightmare to maintain, but I can't bring myself to do it. Sorry Purdie

I feel like I have missed so much on here. I keep trying to read back but so much has been written.

Chops hope you and little bean are doing well.

Oh, and as promised, currently researching foods and vitamins for conception.

Pixa ha ha sounds great!! Love a night away! How nice having all your make up done too! I've never had that done before!

Sparkly, no I always use the MN app on my phone but if I miss a lot I read on my iPad and post from my phone. I don't know how people can remember everything when posting from the app as you can't scroll back!
Good to hear you're hanging in there and trying to stay positive. Less than a week to go now until your next scan

I've just made pizza for ds and his friends and sent them outside to run round the garden for a while. It's so noisy having 3 boys here!

Spinning - I use my phone app too. To ensure I remember, I write down messages to respond to and a note pad

Sparkly I always imagine you to look really stunningly beautiful and natural. I recommend having your make up done at a salon for a bit of a treat though, I never usually wear make up but it's so lovely once in a while, especially if you're feeling a bit negative, it can make you feel brilliant in an instant. Plus, it's nice to feel like I am making an effort for Mr Grey DH

Aww Pixa, Dh sounds like a sweetie, pleased your dress was appreciated. I love having my make up done, always makes you feel good

Juney, the new romance sounds exciting, enjoy it and you have to hang around here even if you're not ttc for a while. You can shake your pom poms for us!
