Getting Ready For Baby Challenge - Thread 8

[HopefullyDothButterNoParsnips]

Here comes the thread, you know what to do!

parsnips I can clearly see a cross in the box. A tentative congratulations 😊 Hopefully this is a lucky month.

grumpy US airports are nortoriously shit. We left from Newark and it was awful.. this was after I read an article saying Newark may be the best airport in the US 😏

7dpo.. so I don't think us anything to do with anything but I have been for a wee 4 times in the last 12hours. One small and 3 massive like I'm desperate for the toilet wees. This is very rare for me as I'm normally a max three times a day girl. I'm sure it's too early to be related to a possible pregnancy but I'm trying to be a bit positive without getting overly excited. I also did some googling and apparently implantation can cause watery clear mucus discharge due to the build up of the mucus plug I'm not symptom spotting

Ahhhhh Parsnips!! amazing! That is a great line. I can't wait to see another one in a few days time.

parsnips wow I can definitely see something!! Tentative congrats but retest in couple of days!! All excited for you :)

seven that sounds incredibly stressful. Has there been rumour of your subject being cut or is that your anxiety? Who can you seek clarification from? So sorry you have this to worry about.

Dancing people have no idea do they. I'm sure she would be horrified if she knew how much she upset you but doesn't make it any less hurtful. So sorry that things are so hard but happy you're going to get some emotional support from EPU

mummy really am so hopeful for you, otters and JB this week. Got everything crossed for all of you x

Is JB ok? Have we heard from her since the FRER squinter?

Feeling crap, tired and acid heartburn.. got to board the plane in 10 mins 😭

Definitely since squinter grumpy. Hopefully hiding a bfp somewhere! ;)

Parsnips ooo...... I'm assuming you would be happy about the bfp?! You were ntnp, right?

They say busses come in threes, but I'm hoping for at least 5** this month! We do like to go on runs of them all coming at once!

Jupiter you're right, she'd be horrified. We're not close, but I definitely get the impression she hasn't really enjoyed any of pregnancy. So I don't think badly of her for saying it. Just wish I hadn't heard!

I'm pretty sure AF has arrived. Started spotting last night. Did a little dance. So painful right now, so if it's not af, then my body is a bitch!

Bold fail. Sorry you're feeling so rough grumpy. At least you can get out of the airport! Hope the flight is ok!!

Hope the flight goes okay grumpy, sorry about the heartburn, so horrible.

Think JB is testing again in a few days :)

Dancing yay for AF!!! Hope she ramps up properly and you get some more spotting/proper flow. Very happy for you!

Omg parsnips I can definitely see a line!!

Hope you have a better day today dancing.

I'm CD29 today, unsure if/when ov happened... Ovia reckons 6 days to AF. Bfn this morning.

Oooh parsnips Hope this is it! 🤞🏼Two fingers up to the lady that left!!

dancing sorry you're in pain, but yay AF seems to be hear & your fresh start can begin!

Hope your flight/airport nightmare is over soon grumpy

Good symptoms Mummy

Looking forward to some more testing later this week, and hopefully tonnes of Jan babies!! 👶🏼👶🏻

Here, not hear... urgh

Well it ain't a squinter anymore! F**k this is actually happening. So if everything goes ok we will be welcoming the new year in with a baby (EDD 12th January).

parsnips I see a line, congratulations. Try again in a couple of days. Keeping everything crossed for all the other humpers this month.

Hooray that AF has arrived dancing, officially CD1.

Safe travels grumpy

Argh!!!!!!!!!! 😃 Congratulations jb!!!!

Omg parsnips! I so see it! That's so bloody exciting!! Can't wait for you to test again! When's af due? When are you visiting parents? Long enough away that you can tell them? I'm so excited for you! Will you stay in Dubai with bubs? Sorry getting ahead of myself haha exciting!

mummy that's such promising symptoms! Everything crossed for you!

otters when do you come back from Italy?

seven that really sucks, hope it all works out okay! Wine solves everything! :)

Ahhhhhh jb!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 congrats!!!

aaaaaaahhhh Jb huge congratulations! What an amazing line!!! 🎉

Congratulations JB! That's a smasher of a line!!

Have you told DH??? I don't think i could keep that to myself til after the weekend😂

jb how do you feel?? :) has it sunk in yet?

No I've managed to keep quiet this morning since doing the test. It's going to drag until Monday why am I married to such a blabbermouth

Excited and scared buzz! Symptom-wise I feel totally normal, which I'm going to just try and enjoy no symptoms as the job I have would be a nightmare with morning sickness!

grumpy you weren't exaggerating about the airport! And I'm so sorry you can't even drown your sorrows in free champagne when you get on the plane! 😢 hope the food is better at least!

Aww bless ya JB - it will be a wonderful surprise for him after the weekend! My DH is in Qatar today and I'm not saying anything until I see it on a digital.

Well I broke and tested today 13dpo and a bfn 😔

tigger you're not out! When's af due?

jb how are you going to tell DP? Monday will be here before you know it!
