gillian1973 · 22/03/2007 21:10

I think its very pretty CazzyBabs. I would wear this.

You are not the only one putting off buying new clothes. My dad got me Next vouchers for my birthday last Oct. I was so pleased because I was going to use them to buy my first maternity clothes. I started to bleed 2 days later . I have kept the vouchers and even though I want to buy some new clothes with them I keep stopping myself in case I get pg before the summer and can use them like I intended. Does your head in doesn't it?

PeachyClair · 22/03/2007 21:18

See gillian thats where you are going wrong- spend your entire maternity budget on clothes then your chances will at least triple

Like that skirt, saw the title pleated skirt before the pic came up and thought but actually its really funky.

gillian1973 · 22/03/2007 21:27

I see Peachy - its the tempting fate scenario!!! That's it, I have to go into town tomorrow for my first reflexology session and after that I will feel so chilled and positive I'm going shopping!!!

I have gone down a size since the mc anyway and really need some new clothes that won't make me look like Charlie Chaplin.

Thank you!

Hi - I've missed a busy day on this thread! Waiting for dh's laptop to come home cos day off work.
Awen - Sounds like better news from consultant. I still have same symptoms as you. Nausea, sore (and hot!?)boobs. hmmm.

Peachyclair -my body winding me up too. Bought tests today. Need some willpower to not do them. Too early.

Cazzybabes - just the sort of comment I make at work. I thought it was funny! Nice skirt too. Pull it down a bit - u could fit a baby bump!

Hello Mrs McJnr

Good luck Fruitful, Feedmenow and London Lottie - sure will speak in April

Gillian1973 - I keep buying clothes that could accomodate a bump. V.silly.

What an essay - apologies.

gillian1973 · 22/03/2007 21:50

Hello BBabymumma. Not silly at all. There are all these tunic tops and nice clothes that could accommodate a bump out there. It's just that I want the bump to go with it NOW!

Hot boobs are a very good sign in my experience. When I was pg you could have fried and egg on mine!

Feeling a bit sicky with a bad taste in my mouth, but last month I felt a lot worse and really, really though I was pg again. But period then made an early appearance . Resist those temptations to test early. I'm sure I can hear the Clearbluefairy wings beating, on her way to tell us off if we do.

Bbabymumma · 22/03/2007 22:05

Clearbluefairy whispers in my ear - do it do it. I'm ignoring her.

Yes - I was same with my 1st. Boiling hot boobs - Peachyclair said sore boobs don't norm happen with the 2nd because they have matured. I'm sure its in my head. Convinced myself in January that I was as well.

Always have bad taste in mouth. I should probably see a dentist!?

MamaMaiasaura · 23/03/2007 10:26

morning all. looking after poorly ds today (tonsillitis/earache/conjunctivitus/temp etc) Took his to dr yesterday who has referred him to ENT peadatrician. Poor ds woke me up at 5.30 distraught cos his mouth was all swollen too and he cant even swallow spit without it hurting. DOnt know whether to take him to drs again today or to see how he goes. THing is at weekend much harder to get seen. .. he is currently playing nintendogs so thought i would pop on quickly.

Another BD last night the romance is getting a bit lost tho..

CD27 or CD23 (should have been or CD22 yesterday but got all confused. Started clomid on 1/3). Boobs feel fuller (dp had a squeeze to check it wasnt in my head -- ouch) Not tingly round nipples tender at base. Have already huge norks so yikes. Still off food and nauseous although not as icky.

Resisting the clearbluefairy.. trying ot hold off till april and not convinced it has worked this month.

MrsMcJnr · 23/03/2007 10:45

Well it?s Groundhog day again for me low temp again and now the BDs of CD9, 12, 13, 15 & 17 are fruitless, still have 20, 21 & 22 but like you Awen, we?re getting a bit jaded but daren?t stop until OV/AF whichever arrives first!

Sorry to hear about AF Fruitful, better luck next cycle Enjoy the house move, exciting!

Hello Latenoghtowl everything crossed for you xx

Cazzybabs ? I remember you too, hello LOVE the skirt, it is quite like Boden?s stuff on that site, never seen it before, will have to have a browse I have a lot of Boden stuff but it is pricey and I can?t afford anything at the moment.

Nice to meet you Peachyclair

Hello Awen Sorry to hear about your poor DS

Hi Gillian I have gone up a size recently (comfort eating ) and feel so bulky and horrid at the moment Hope you enjoy your shopping spree and the reflexology. I had a session but it didn?t do much for me, I preferred Reiki, which did make me feel different.

BBabyMamma ? hello I had sore boobs down the sides particularly when I got my BFP. Apparently in your first pg the ducts around the nipple rise up but they don?t really go back again so it?s only a sign in the first pg.

gillian1973 · 23/03/2007 11:18

I feel fo you MrsmcJ, I hope everything settles down soon. I am looking forward to the reflexology - I'll report fully later on today. Many years ago I had reiki and it gave me a splitting headache!

I keep meaning to ask you - how are you getting on with the Lesley Regan book - do you recommend it?

Hello all still no sign of AF, but not holding up breath about it. If I get to Monday with no visit then I'll test.

Awen, sorry to hear DS is not well. When I had tonsilitis I took comfort in lots of warm soup through a straw.

MrsMcJnr · 23/03/2007 14:21

The book was good thanks, lots of bits that didn't apply to me but lots that did too. The other book about trying again is good too. I think they'll both be useful to have around until and after the next pregnancy. How about you? have you read much of it? what do you think? some of it makes you imagine you have tons wrong with you!

Hope AF stays away for at least another 36 weeks

cazzybabs · 23/03/2007 17:36

sorry to be nosiey buit
what other book about

tr
ying again

rry = dd2 is helping to type

cazzybabs · 23/03/2007 17:46

ummm how about his to spice up your love life whilst TTC

how romantic!!!

hang on darling now you've finished I'll just find my really big and cumbersome pillow!

OP posts:
MamaMaiasaura · 23/03/2007 21:38

lol " the link cazzybabs.. really going toturn dp on.. not

Thanks for messages re ds, look like he may be scarlet fever again got back from drs about an hour ago. Poor little ds so upset and in pain. At least got medicine that will hopefully start working in a couple of days. Lots and lots of tlc for him

MrsMcJnr · 24/03/2007 10:54

Cazzybabs ? would save the fear of getting your own pillow messy though! I did assume that position when TTC before but have to admit I haven?t been bothering recently! I?ll check the name of the book & author and report back.

Awen ? on no your poor DS, how worrying for you. Hope he feels much better soon

gillian1973 · 24/03/2007 12:06

Alas I'm out. Period started this morning . Into cycle #4 now....

Reflexology was good even though it was a bit wierd for a man who was not DH to be touching my feet! I did feel relaxed and actually much more positive as I left to start my shopping spree. He knew why I booked the session and said that his wife had had a mc so even if he had not gone through the physical part of it, he had shared in his wife's emotional distress.

Feeling a bit down this morning as period has started but I am trying to find stuff to keep me occupied so I do not dwell too much. Only two more cycles before my due date....I'm dreading it!

Thanks MrsmcJ ordered the Lesley Regan book from Amazon. Will report back in due course.

CazzyB love DD's typing. Awen, hope DS is feeling better.

gillian1973 · 24/03/2007 12:30

Book has just arrived - that's what I call service !

cazzybabs · 24/03/2007 14:10

cazzybabs · 24/03/2007 14:17

Not many of us left...

I don't think I am pregnant this month - feel life AF is going to start tomorrow or Monday

OP posts:
LatenightOwl · 24/03/2007 15:19

Hi All,
well Im still holding on at the moment - no sign of AF but back is killing me (new one for me) and I just feel crap. If AF holds off til Wed - I test - Wed seems like light years away . Im doing temps as well and they are still high at 36.75 so fingers crossed..

cazzybabs · 24/03/2007 17:28

Ok I clearly am pregnanct after all.... decided to a test as I am going out tonight and wanted to know if to do a test or not...and there were 2 lines (1 faint but then I am 2 days before AF due).

Am very scared following 2 mc and the bad luck assocated with this thread....so am not telling anyone apart from you guys until 12 week scan.

OP posts:
gillian1973 · 24/03/2007 17:32

huh! don't leave us like this give us details! Like I have read a million times in this these threads a line is a line. Are you sure it is a very faint positive?

Please say yes, I would love some good news for a change.
