We don't care if you obsessively chart, temp & OPK, or just do the deed a couple of times a month. As long as you want a baby & can talk copious amounts of rubbish, this is the place for you. Grin

Evening All!
First injection done, phew! It was a bit stingy, but not too bad. DH has helped m make up the second lot ready for when he's out tomorrow night, so I'm all prepared.

Nomio - I'd rather be in control doing the injections myself. However if it starts to get really painful then DH may have to take over.

Mummy - Yes we did, everything was there. It was listed as a 'multidose pen' when if fact it was actually lots of needles!

Mega - The pups are so cute, we went to visit earlier...they are escaping out of their box now and getting up to all sorts of trouble!
I love JoC, def calling it that from now on!

Sorry i haven't name checkd everyone, but thank you everyone who has asked after me, it means so much to know you girls are all behind me :)

Hey my favourite bumsnetters...its queenbee30 wearing a new name. Is it ok if I rejoin after my melodramatic quitting? I miss the support here but I was having a really difficult time and needed to get my head out of my arse. I'm feeling a bit more resilient now. How are you all? Who has got upduffed in my absence?

Mummyofonesofar · 03/07/2015 09:25

Sorry for AF Boris enjoy a weekend of wine Grin

knickers sorry for BFN, why is work so terrible at the mo?

mega sorry about shitty baby bomb, the “friend” who bombed me on facebook is due on my month too. Plus got a baby bomb from someone I used to work with who is so lovely and I can imagine they have been trying and they have been married a year or so now and I can’t help but be so pleased for her. Maybe it is because she isn’t up here and I won’t be bumping into her!

BBH It is funny how some baby bombs are harder to swallow than others! I sent DP a text about the baby bomb last night and got a text back saying “Please don’t start doing this again. I know you want to be pregnant and I want that too. We will get there”. So looks like the jealousy thing is getting old now, but how else are we meant to feel when it seems everyone around us are pregnant! I constantly thought I was pregnant on the implant because you do hear it can happen but I never was. AF just goes really weird on it every now and again plus some weird hormones. I am sure she isn’t pregnant. Fx anyway!

Sammy yay for first injection! And super you have everything you need.

Thanks everyone saying how well DS did, he is amazing – reminds me why I am going through the hell of TTC/opks/vits/baby bombs because it is all so worth it! And for thinking of me and my cocktails last night! I had such a great night!! Far too much to drink however and we got to bed at gone 2am and had to walk into work because I am not yet safe to drive Sad think I am going to struggle through today, very fuzzy head but impressed with myself that I turned up at all!

Hi Queenbee of course you can come back! Why are you having a hard time lovely?

Kirjava · 03/07/2015 09:29

Thanks mummy sorry about the baby bombs, but I also find some easier to deal with than others! My weird tiny little positive that wasn't and the messed up cycle got to me much more than I realised, and then loads of baby bombs

Hairstylisttoboris · 03/07/2015 10:23

kirjava you came back we missed ya. Like the new name.

Kirjava · 03/07/2015 10:24

Thanks boris! Nice to be back Grin

Mummyofonesofar · 03/07/2015 10:35

Oops sorry - should have used new name - kirjava Want adding to t'stats again?

Hairstylisttoboris · 03/07/2015 10:38

I also have new stats mummy

Hairstylisttoboris, aged 37, ttc1, cycle 14, BFP due 27 july#####

Hairstylisttoboris · 03/07/2015 10:46

I just got a little over excited as, for the first time ever, my two apps agree on my AF due date and fertile window. Shocker.

mummy thanks for doing that stats. You are a star. X

Mummyofonesofar · 03/07/2015 10:49

Thanks Boris For those who have had AF please could I have your new test dates! Also have some rather old dates for Glittery, Beansprout, Pikz, frog, figroller, Ibeka & Pixa Did some leave? Are you still here? Have we lost them in the gin section of the bus again?

DizzyNorthernBird · 03/07/2015 11:12

Morning!

Just trying to catch up!

mega I've written off the 13 miler for now. I've got a half marathon a week on Sunday but if the forecast is hot I'm not doing it. Because it will be horrible and because a hard and sweaty race might delay ovulation
Bloody dentist! Fillings are uncomfortable enough without a baby bomb on top!!

knickers sorry for temp drop Flowers but I hope you enjoyed your gin.

boris Flowers Flowers Flowers I hope you treated yourself to a lovely drink in the evening sun.

eskimo remind me what pineapple juice does in tww? Might give it a try this cycle!

DizzyNorthernBird · 03/07/2015 11:24

mummy sorry for the fuzzy head today, I hope your day goes quick & you feel better soon. Get some carbs! Hope you had a nice evening.

babybump sorry for all the baby bombs. I hope it felt a bit easier knowing that your friend had tried for a while. When I get pg I'll make a point of telling people that we'd been trying for a while so that if there's anyone in the same shoes it'll give them some hope. It's not nice to feel like everyone else is getting upduffed at the drop of a hat.

I don't know where the others are mummy, are they still in the fb group? I think pixa was due to go on holiday around now?

Welcome back kirjava! Don't worry, I know what it's like to leave and then come sloping back! Hopefully the time away has been refreshing?

DizzyNorthernBird · 03/07/2015 11:31

DP and I managed to dtd this morning just for fun, wasn't particularly pleasant in our stuffy bedroom. I hope it's going to be cooler around ov time otherwise I don't know how we'll get through it Hmm

Sun is shining again here today, I'm off to an open air pool for a swim shortly, should be bliss Smile as long as I layer up on sunscreen! Can't wait!

So, im thinking I might step off the bus later today or tomorrow as planned in the build up to ov. I've got a busy weekend ahead of me then we fly to Spain early on Monday so it seems to be a good time to make the break (I swear last time I stepped off I had to go through a couple of days withdrawal, like quitting tea or chocolate!!!)

Will make the most of my time here today though as will miss you all while I'm away! Smile

Mummyofonesofar · 03/07/2015 11:33

DizzyN I have had a Subway breakfast roll but counting down the minutes to go and get chips from the canteen then at some point feel ok enough to go and get my car! I hate driving the day after a night of the pop, I never know when I am safe! Need to get a tester for my car really.

Yeah, we have seen both Pixa & Pikz recently but can't remember if they were away/taking a break from our drivel or something...

DizzyNorthernBird · 03/07/2015 11:48

There was definitely a couple of girls who were taking a break recently. Hopefully they'll be along shortly with some good news!

Hopefully the chips will sort you out then!

I'm shit at traffic law as it's not my specialty, but if memory serves a rule of thumb is to work out how many units you drank, then it's supposed to take the body something like an hour to break down two units. Or two hours to break down one unit? Gah...... Confused

DizzyNorthernBird · 03/07/2015 11:52

Here mummy read this morning-after.org.uk/

spinningirl10 · 03/07/2015 11:56

Baby bombed by the dentistShock how bloody annoying and no escape!!

Dizzy, enjoy your hols, where in Spain are you off to? I think you said before but I've forgotten.

Mummy, sounds like you had a good night and fx the carbs soak up the alcohol left!

Hairstylisttoboris · 03/07/2015 11:59

I'm also going to take a short break this weekend, just for a few days in the run up to OV. I'll be back on Monday though!
I got baby bomed by a girl we were out with last night. She's 12 weeks of and it was heart breaking to hear her chat, and I couldn't be happy for her at all. I need to step away from things a bit and keep my head clear of tTC stuff for a short period.

Mummyofonesofar · 03/07/2015 12:23

Thanks DizzyN I have no idea how much I drank at all! But shocked that it takes 11.5 hours for a bottle of wine to get out of your system! Glad you enjoyed your fun DTD! They are important. Enjoy your swim. We will miss you ! But get that everyone needs some time away – especially on holiday! It should be a rule that when on holiday you must not mumsnet!

spinnin it was fab – there was a wait for chips so ended up with cottage pie Sad not really what I wanted!

Boris we will miss you too! A few days off will give your head a good chance to sort itself out though.

Nomio230 · 03/07/2015 13:15

Sounds like the bus will be empty over the weekend. Shock

Boris, sorry you got bombed. It is so hard when the one thing you want most in the world is to be pregnant, and everyone else around you seems to get there effortlessly. It will be your time soon.

Mummy, your little boy is a genius! You must be so proud. I am glad you had a good time, but shame about the fuzzy head. I hope you feel better soon.

DizzyN, if I don't see you again before you go, I hope you have a brilliant holiday. Bring us back some sangria for the bus!

I am off ooop North tonight to see my gorgeous niece & nephews. I am so excited! I have promised we will go to the beach tomorrow, then Sunday we might go swimming. Smile

Nomio - I'll still be here! X

Mummyofonesofar · 03/07/2015 14:06

Thanks Nomio enjoy up North!

I will be here too Hmm but it is quiet recently...

Mummyofonesofar · 03/07/2015 14:47

Big glog of ewcm this afternoon - weird on CD5! Anyone else had this before?

Nomio230 · 03/07/2015 15:07

Nope. You are a freak of nature. Grin

We just got our formal mortgage offer! The survey was all ok, so it looks like it is definitely going to happen. I am so excited. All I need now is a baby to fill up one of the rooms!

Mummyofonesofar · 03/07/2015 15:42

I hope I don't ov this early! Congratulations on your mortgage! Fx it is plain sailing now into your perfect house!
