SK - bottom of back, top of leg??

I'd like 2 more Tattoos another one on my back but going up my spine possibly! am thinking tribal with a scroll inside to put my next DC name in.
And then i'd like flowers going up my foot!

TheMuppetMuggle · 01/09/2007 21:04

MM - Thats why he wants it fast then lol.

Me & DP have some sort of same taste in music he prefers Kanye West etc, but i prefer Arctic Monkeys, The Fratellis etc.
And i don't mind listening to 80's music as thats what i was brought up on however he's not to keen on that!

sweetkitty · 01/09/2007 21:08

MM - like that idea of tattoo on leg hide the cellulite

TheMuppetMuggle · 01/09/2007 21:10

LOL SK that wasn't my thinking but okay! i;m lucky i don't suffer with that yet i don't think, Joys of being a UK size 6 hehe

moodymoo · 01/09/2007 21:11

TMM - they sound nice. A girl at work has a big fairy on the whole of her back which looks pretty cool. She got done for wearing a top that showed some of it off though - sent her out to buy something 'more suitable'.
One of my ex mates had a devil on her boob - didn't like that one though cos it was lobsided and looked cheap and tacky. I am far too chciken to have one done. Don't do pain unless I have no choice.
Sweetkitty - don't worry about talking - this is the one place you should be able to say exactly how you feel- we all have up days and down days. If you feel really bad have you tried some counselling? I have found this really helpful and dh can see a difference when I go. You need to give yourself time - if you had mc in July that isn't that long ago.
I must be mistaken because I thought we had money problems going on in my house as well but clearly not since he can afford to spend that much money!!!!

TheMuppetMuggle · 01/09/2007 21:15

MM - Wouldn't have any on my boobs or tummy.
back & foot is enough for me!
MM - Your DH clearly doesn't think you have money issues.

sweetkitty · 01/09/2007 21:15

lucky you muppetmuggle I'm a size 8 myself but still got the blighted cellulite, was a 12 before having children best diet ever 2 toddlers

mandymoo - thanks but it's not just the mc thats making me down it's my life, I don't think it's the right environment to bring a baby into, feels like the only good thing is my DDs right now everything else is a struggle.

TheMuppetMuggle · 01/09/2007 21:24

SK - Your a good mum and you know it, i find life very hard at time, i've just been through 2 mths of stress & exhaustion and come out the other end well. and i couldn't of done it without having the girls here to listen to me vent my anger and sadness.

I was size 12 @ school but it all came off afterwards for some reason, was size 6 before DD and was afterwards although took me a yr to get back to normal.

moodymoo · 01/09/2007 21:25

Sweetkitty - reckon you should go and see a counsellor - they are really good and can help you deal with all aspects of your life. I didn't think I would like it but it really helped taing to someone outside it all - also had motivational counselling to get me motivated again. You just need to ask your doc to refer you. (not trying to interfere - just want to say that there is help out there). Please don't suffer in silence.
Anyway - not sure I can talk to you 2 now cos I am sooo jealous - would cut of my right arm to be a size 8 or a 6 - in fact if you add both your sizes together and add just a little bit more on you will be around about there.don't have cellulite though (well not when my glasses are anywhere but on my nose).
Yeuch - sound like a real minger now - fattish with gigs - am not though - if I could work out how to put piccies on here would do it - only bigger cos mother nature was kind to me in other areas
Going to get a complex now..

TheMuppetMuggle · 01/09/2007 21:30

MM - Hate to make you jealous even more but i can sometimes fit into UK size 4 and the good thing is i don't look unhealthy (thin) being this size if you catch my drift!
The one thing i absolutely detest about being this size is no boobs, is why i loved being PG - Bigger Boobs

moodymoo · 01/09/2007 21:40

Now i am really jealous - it's not fair. When i got pg my boobs got sooo big - the woman in debenhams was horrid to me about them.
Have found I have been loosing weight since being on large dose of folic acid.Doctor says I am a healthy weight though so I aren't bothered too much at the moment .
Have looked at your pictures anyway and I agree - you don't look unhelathy and your LO looks really cute.
Think I am going to be kicked off here soon as dh has been waiting ages to get on it - will see how long I can drag it out for though.

TheMuppetMuggle · 01/09/2007 21:44

MM - i was weighed on Weds when i went to Drs about my chest, and weighed in at 8st 1lb - 54.2kgs so have put weight on and am okay for my height.
Thanks my i need to update my pics as DD has changed so much!

moodymoo · 01/09/2007 21:50

At the end of the day as long as you are healthy that's all that matters. Might try and work out how to put photos on here 2moro.

moodymoo · 01/09/2007 22:05

Bellie / lIbralady/anyone else using clearblue fertility monitor - Bots are doing 3 for 2 on the sticks so that would be £40 for 6 months worth of sticks (£13 a box) - going to try and get some this week but you can definatly order them off of boots website.
Right going to bed now so see you all 2moro

goingfor3 · 02/09/2007 08:04

I went to Boots yesterday to get some OPK's but the 3 for 2 is an online only offer.

Morning all. Not been around for a while as lots going on and been a bit down about ttc (had tests done for possible POF). Get the results on Tuesday/Wednesday next week hopefully. Anyway, I've woken up in a more positive mood and decided I need to stop fearing the worst as the stress won't help ttc!!

Friend leant me her Persona monitor for this cycle but I missed one of the tests. She said to carry on and see if I get an egg symbol at some point. Well I had twinges in my right side on either CD7/8 and then on CD9 I had a little EWCM but not much. Monitor just showing a red light but not sure if that means I wasn't ovulating or if it's just too early to know as first cycle using the monitor? Anyway, had lots of info on POF so I know my options should I have a problem. Now feel ready to be back on a ttc thread

Sorry for those who are all waiting for AF but still getting BFN's. I do feel for you as last month I had all the pg symptoms, great big list of them then late period and used 7 cheap tests with all BFN's - not nice to see. Hope there are lots of BFP's soon!

LT xx

TheMuppetMuggle · 02/09/2007 10:04

Morning Ladies
I am CD 22 so its right on the list.
Feel shattered still today, thankfully DD is just laying in the conservatory watching Cars with blanket wrapped round her.

SO what has everyone got planned today?

looneytune · 02/09/2007 10:11

TheMuppetMuggle - morning I'm shattered too, just want to go back to bed but as the sun in shining, I'm trying to spring into action . Ds is building a castle and today I need to do all my cleaning, washing, childminding paperwork, accounts, home paperwork etc etc - unfortunately I've been in a bit of a state since the Dr's on Thursday and really not been up to much which has resulted in a major need to catch up!! Anyway, feeling much more positive today. Dh fell out (big time) with his twin brother just over a year ago (26th Aug last year) and his twin called him yesterday and said 'i think it's time to bury the hatchet'. BIG SHOCK as we'd only just the other night been saying that no way will dh's brother ever make the first move plus he won't forgive him for dumping him 4 miles away from home (long story, his brother deserved it!!). So to have the call was a big surprise and dh is hoping to go round and see him this morning. Then if his brother is up for it, we'll all go and have a nice pub lunch somewhere later. Soooooooo, I want to try and get as much stuff done so that I can go out for lunch if they decide to!

What's everyone else up to? Preparing for kids going back to school? Ds goes back on Tuesday!

TheMuppetMuggle · 02/09/2007 10:16

Morning LT - God you have lots to do, all houseowrk is done, washing is on the line, so just chill out day today thankfully.
Darcies got her preschool keyworkers coming out tomorrow afternoon, and goes into school on friday afternoon.
Glad to hear about your DH brother hope all goes well and you have nice lunch/dinner!

looneytune · 02/09/2007 10:25

Yes, it sounds a lot but it's sort of usual with a bit more on top because I let it slip last week. Every Sunday I clean the entire downstairs ready for opening the next day (obviously need to keep on top of it as childminding) and every weekend I have a lot of paperwork to do (as don't finish til 6.30pm in the week and by the time I've cleaned, hoovered, tidied up and put ds to bed, I'm not fit for much more!). Unfortunately I didn't get anything done yesterday as were out at friends BBQ in the afternoon and I wasted the morning on the internet researching stuff about POF. Right, got a cuppa so going to jump up and grab the duster and get to it - going to turn it into a race and see how quick I can get it all done!! And thanks, hopefully they will be fine and we can all meet up for lunch The fact dh's twin was laughing about it on the phone yesterday is a very positive sign things will be ok!! He doesn't even know where we live as we moved in Nov. Lots to catch up with!!!

Enjoy your day of chilling and good luck for tomorrow!! Bless, how old is she?

wuzzlefraggle · 02/09/2007 10:43

TheMuppetMuggle · 02/09/2007 10:44

looneytune · 02/09/2007 10:45
