DH has just come in and said that he wants to wait until one AF has been and gone before we ttc. I know he's only doing it because he cares but can't help feeling a little disappointed.

Playingthewaitinggame · 13/02/2008 18:19

Oh popcorn thats hard, mind you it might be a sensible plan . Well at least whilst you wait you can have some company, its what we are all doing on here, keeping each other company while we wait, some post mc.

LOL My DS1 yesterday morning conversation went:

DS1: "Mum, you are the best mum in the world"
Me: "Ah that's nice, thankyou, eat your breakfast"
DS1: "Even better than Pepper Pig's mummy"
Me: "Thank you. Where did I put DS2's shoes?"
DS1: "Near the buggy. You are the best mum in the world, but you are very forgetful, it is almost as though you haven't got a brain"
Me:

I suppose 3 or 4 more weeks isn't such a long time in the grand scheme of things. You're right playing, may be it is sensible to wait. If the pregnancy ended in mc again then I would always wonder if things would have been different had i waited a few weeks. Like you said, the company from you lovely lot will help to pass the time.

NatalieJane · 13/02/2008 18:24

Sorry, started typing that before Playing came back, took me ages in between sorting the kids!

Pop, it can be a good thing to wait a month, just for dating purposes, but I do know how you feel. Just make it clear to him that there is no medical reason to wait, there is no risk involved, but I think if he says to wait, you might have to just sit tight till next cycle.

Playingthewaitinggame · 13/02/2008 18:27

hmmm, what should I cook for dinner tonight?

Playingthewaitinggame · 13/02/2008 18:41

hmmm curry. yum, that sounds like a plan

Playingthewaitinggame · 13/02/2008 18:41

all home cooked by our local indian restaurant

NatalieJane · 13/02/2008 18:44

Gorden bennit, DH still isn't home, do you think he has gone to Belgium for the chocs?!!!

Playingthewaitinggame · 13/02/2008 18:45

Maybe . My DH has just got home and is now reading all my post over my shoulder, cheeky bugger.

lardylumps · 13/02/2008 18:45

I am eating my dinner with dd everyday as i start work at 4. But now i am starving again. It is not really such a good idea love mealtimes with her but am eating too much and will never lose my lardy lumps at this rate.

Got to boast if i may, although i have to put the food on her spoon she then picks the spoon up and puts it in her own mouth. Half of it falls off and so she picks it up and puts it on the spoon.....

She is so lovely...

lardylumps · 13/02/2008 18:47

Good job you only said nice things about dh or there could be fireworks right about now...

NatalieJane · 13/02/2008 18:48

LOL Playing, we won't mention that thing you said about him earlier then

DS2 doesn't even know what a spoon is...! LOL

Playingthewaitinggame · 13/02/2008 18:51

Nah, he's ok, he knows all about MN and I would never say anything nasty about him cos there is nothing nasty to say!! He is lovely

Playingthewaitinggame · 13/02/2008 19:05

Right DH has gone hunter gathering to the curry house and I am on a mission to put beers in the freezer my "diet" that I am not on but really should be is just not happening!!! Be back later

kayzisbroody · 13/02/2008 19:10

Hi all, am at mums, ds is crawling around everywhere I wish I had a big house so he could crawl around

Playingthewaitinggame · 13/02/2008 19:50

Hi Kay, I know what you mean about wanting a large house. Both DH and I grew up in 5 bed houses and we know there is just no way we are going to be able to provide that for our kids, not even sure how the hell we will ever be able to buy. Nevermind, we rent a nice 3 bed at the moment and although the lounge is quite small there is a lovely large kitchen diner which is the room everyone hangs out in. Plenty of time to worry about buying I suppose.

lardylumps · 13/02/2008 20:00

Thank you all for a lovely evening my shift has now finished and i am off to steel dp dinner...

Bye bye have a nice evening.

NatalieJane · 13/02/2008 20:05

Going to order the food and settle with DH and a bottle of vino

See you all tomorrow, have a good Valentines eve Any excuse for a GOF xxxx

Playingthewaitinggame · 13/02/2008 20:22

popcornprincess · 13/02/2008 20:26

Back from Tescos - I hate it in there!!! Enjoy your take outs and booze. Night night.

kayzisbroody · 13/02/2008 21:08

Evening, I cant believe I missed a 'Am I Pregnant?' thread and it was a good one.
I cant wait until its me, I'll tell you all when I'll test so you can all be here

Diege · 14/02/2008 06:48

Morning everyone , and welcome to POPCORN . Everyone here (as you know already)is lovely and friendly, and very chatty . It seems years ago scanning back, but re: the ovulation pain I do get it occasionally - like a dragging crampling rather than a sharp pain, usually in my left hand side and accompanied by lots of EWM (apologies if anyone's having breakfast ).
Will do my best to 'keep up' today, although we're out at the cinema watching 'Penelope' (fingers crossed). I say fingers crossed because dd3 have been throwing up all night, and a tiny bit this morning, so assessing the situation regarding palming her off at nursery .
Speak later!

kayzisbroody · 14/02/2008 07:19

Good Morning all, I feel awful today, ds woke up in the middle of the night for the first time since he was 4 months old. I'm exhausted and I'm working 9-6 today .
Have a good day everyone.

NatalieJane · 14/02/2008 07:44

Morning all Happy Velentines Day, love from ? xxx

I don't think I have ever said that to a bunch of laydees before

So DS1's toothfairy came and left him 2 pound coins (couldn't find a £2 coin!) so he got up (at 5.40! ) came running into our room to tell us, then went running dowstairs, when I came down he gave me his valentines card that he made, wrapped in an envelope he made to go round it, I opened it up and a pound coin fell out, he has only put his tooth money in with my and DS2's card Bless his little heart And then we were sat talking for a while and I said c'mon I better start doing your packed lunch, and he said "No mum, I'll have school dinners today so you don't have to do my lunch" Gotta love 'em

Diege, hope DD3 feels better
And I hope you feel a bit better once up and about properly Kay

Right have to go and get ready, I might not be about so much today, got to get ready for tonight, I am going to be tarted up from head to toe, gonna take me agessssss, should have started last week.....!!!

See you all in a bit xxx
