Are you sick to the tits of baby-making sex? Or are you squelching with rabid lust when the lickle hand strikes cock o' clock? Have you already picked Sophia and Hugo as your baby names? Do you want to gouge out the smug eyes of the pregnant women in Sainsbo's? Do you shove balloons up your Boden sweater and pretend you have baby in your tum-tum? Have you already picked out your Farrow & Ball nursery paint? GREAT! Then you're just like us: We are the friendliest, wittiest, gayest, animal-lovingest, cervical-hunting women you will ever meet.

Come on, you frightened little trying-to-conceive mice...come join the fun on the Bumsnet bus. You know you wanna Smile

Eskimo kisses for eskimo ! Are you on half term now? Do you have fun plans for this week? When do you get your day 28 (?) blood test results? So. Many. Questions.

I have just successfully managed to do my opk.

Pixa · 23/05/2015 23:19

I agree Eskimo. I am finding it so hard to bite my tongue.

B&Js was not as good as Satisfy My Bowl. I don't recommend the new peanut butter one.

Good OPK Pug?

eskimoflo · 23/05/2015 23:19

I loves you Pugling I am indeed on half term. Grin What did your opk say? (That rhymes. It's also a bit like 'What did the frog say?')

I am going to London for two days on Monday and Tuesday. We're going to see Maroon 5 and I am totally going to drool over Adam Levine! We're also going camping at the end of the week, but I'm a bit concerned that we won't be able to take Alfie, coz the vet operated yesterday and removed a big corn from his paw (yay!) but he's now got a huuuuge bandage (boo!)

ThePug · 23/05/2015 23:24

Oh wow so you were right about the paw corn then eskimo ! That is such good news that hopefully that was 'all' it was and nothing more sinister or permanent. Sounds like you've got a good mix of stuff to do in town & country.

I think my opk has gone darker again after two days of pale lines, hang on, I'll take a pic...

ThePug · 23/05/2015 23:26

Today being day 27 at the bottom... Think we'll go for CoC after Eurovision is over just in case!

The B&J utters peanut butter clutter is lovely. I tried it yesterday and between me and Dsis we finished the lot. I also see the B&J and think the same purdie.

I really don't think purdie is a bully. We've had a difference of opinion but she isn't a bully. I can't deny the support and helpful advice that she provides.

I hope I'm not fuelling this fire any further and I really didn't mean to cause any aggro. Just wanted to voice my opinion.

Absolutely get on it Pug, it definitely looks darker than day 26. Smile

eskimoflo · 23/05/2015 23:33

Hiya Pixa Don't bite your tongue, it's bad for you and it hurts Wink

Pug I was right about the corn, but they didn't listen to me until they had done a nerve block in his joint and he was still limping on it! I got my CD28 result yesterday. It was 3 again, so no ov still Sad I did have bloods taken again yesterday though, which was CD32 for me, so fingers crossed that there's a rise from last Thurs / Fri when I got the positive OPK. I also have another appointment at the clinic on 4th June. When I went back in March, they said that they would want to see me in three months' time, regardless of whether I had had AF or not. So I'm going back then. If I haven't ovulated, I shall demand enquire about clomid. Grin

Pixa · 23/05/2015 23:40

eskimo, please don't tempt me. I have written the same message about a billion times, then deleted it without pressing send! I think a lot of us are thinking along similar lines.

I can safely say that this bus has been a huge amount of support to me.

ThePug · 23/05/2015 23:41

Is Alfie wearing a cone of shame eskimo ? You'll have to put a pic of his poor bandaged up paw on fb. Your poor veins must be wondering what's going on with all this prodding! Fx this next one shows an increase. 4th June is really soon too so one way or another you should be in a better position very soon indeed.

I can't believe Austria have nil point, I thought their's was one of the few songs that actually could be something you'd hear/see in the charts. And Ireland only gave us 1 point? Pah!

Pixa · 23/05/2015 23:43

I thought the lady from Iceland was far to skinny, then realised she was wearing one of those panel dresses.

Pixa · 23/05/2015 23:43

too*

eskimoflo · 24/05/2015 00:03

Tessie Purdie was not jumping on a bandwagon. This was part of Purdie's reply to Chops:

I don't know why it stings to see jubilation about pregnancy milestones on here but it does. Of course, that is only my experience; I cannot speak for anyone else. Please stay Flowers

That doesn't sound like someone who is 'Queen Bee' to me. In fact, it sounds like someone who is voicing her opinion and being completely honest about how she has been hurt by a throw away comment. I hate how everyone is so quick to jump on Purdie's comments and try to totally annihilate her from having her own opinion. Yes, she is outspoken and she says things that not everyone agrees with, but isn't that part of being on an online thread? Hmm

Nomio230 · 24/05/2015 00:04

I can't believe Australia didn't give us any points. I will be boycotting Home and Away in protest.

Eskimo, I am really pleased there was nothing serious wrong with your dog. Let's hope he feels better soon.

Pug, it looks dark to me. I would DTD just in case.

Pixa · 24/05/2015 00:04

Fully agree with and support Eskimo and her comments.

eskimoflo · 24/05/2015 00:18

Pug He isn't wearing the cone of shame. I think the vet thought that his bandage was so huge that there was no chance of him (or us for that matter) ever getting it off!

Thank you for your kind words about my appointment Flowers

Hi ladies just checking in on the hotel wifi and kinda wished I hadn't :(
I haven't read it all back but am sad that everyone's still fighting. I think another line needs to be drawn under this, it's getting out of hand!

So, we need some good news... Anyone poas today? Xx

purdiepie · 24/05/2015 07:44

Morning, Pixa Grin What are you up to today? It is a drizzly and miserable day here oop Norf. No gardening for me Sad

Oysterbabe · 24/05/2015 08:03

Morning!
CD29 and I reckon 14DPO. Let's see what today brings, hopefully no AF. I've been feeling like it's going to start for a couple of days now.

It's so lovely it being Sunday without that miserable work tomorrow feeling Grin
Weather permitting we have a T20 match on at ours, there's also the grand Prix and a few very crucial football matches. It's going to be a pretty sport heavy day!
What is everyone up to? Any poas going on?

loopylou1984 · 24/05/2015 08:05

Looking forward to seeing the chart Purdie! It's a lovely hotel and breakfast was ok.... If not a little unusual so good start!

Morning Pixa Smile

loopylou1984 · 24/05/2015 08:06
