Thats good then. I was really worried then.

Awww DS1 has just brought me home an easter bonnet that he made for me, and he won an easter egg in the easter draw, and he says he won it for me, I love that boy

Off to finish stripping (only got behind the raditor to go, yipeeeeeeeeeeee!) wearing my lovely bonnet!

calsworld · 20/03/2008 15:48

hi all, sorry I've been away so long, i've tried to catch up but am struggling.

AF has only just tiptoed out the door completely (was a long one) am now on CD8 so BD last night and tonight and Friday night but will be tricky Sat/Sun as at inlaws but will BD again on Monday which is CD12 then all next week...

Does that cover me? I think I'll be crackered!

tinkerbell2 · 20/03/2008 17:05

hi ladies k oh yes he does look like his dad 2 especially the hair!!
nj i hate wallpapering too!! we painted over our bedroom wallpaper 2!!
i love painting quite therapeutic!! think i prefer using a brush as tend to get covered using a roller!!
glad that i knew what you were talking about when you said off to finish stripping lol had odd images involving just he bonnet lol

NatalieJane · 20/03/2008 17:39

Hiya desserter Cal It has been v. quiet on here with out you! You will be fine missing out the weekend, though you could always leave DS with PIL's and go and find a nice quiet dark country road somewhere God I miss car sex. Ermmmm that is sex in the car, not with the car, or any of it's mechanics! Busy at work?

LMAO Tink, yes can see the picture you were conjuring up! But I have finished the striping, even managed to slap a bit of paint on, just to check the colour mind, don't like it, will carry on to use it as an undercoat, but will have to get a different colour for final finish. I hate it when the reality doesn't match the picture in your head....

Am going to have a nice long soak tonight, shower is deadened DH can fit another one but he needs the daylight, he can't switch the light on in the bathroom and do it because he needs the electric off.... so guess what he is doing at the weekend?!

Spose I'd better get their tea on in a bit.

Diege · 20/03/2008 19:52

Evening! Have had a busy one today, so only just getting a chance now to get on computer.
Good going on the decorating Nat. Think it's one of those things you either really 'get'and can do reasonably well, or it's an uphill struggle all the way. Have bad memories of wallpapering years ago and the damn paper ripping etc etc.. Think of the sense of acheivement when it's done though! .
Just thinking that a lot of us seem to be in the same sort of place in our cycles (cd 8/9) [well, 3 of us] - hey maybe we've 'synchronised' like women who live/work together sometimes do .
Can't believe this is my last sycle now till ttc (I think???). My shortened cycles have brought it all closer!
Hope everyone has a good bank holiday. I can't stop thinking it's Friday for some reason!

kayzisbroody · 21/03/2008 08:09

Good Morning,

Had nice gof last night.

But I woke up at half 5 and couldn't get back to sleep so got up at half 6 why can't my body realise it's a bank holiday??

Hope everyone has good days.

tinkerbell2 · 21/03/2008 08:32

morning ladies happy good friday
cd 55 for me no af lots of ewcm this morning

calsworld · 21/03/2008 09:13

Morning all! Its my birthday today! .

Got cards from DS and DH at 6.45 and I've been given a case for my ipod and DH has bought me a TOMTOM! I'm so excited I need to drive somewhere!!!

DS has very thoughfully bought me a case to put the tomtom in so that it doesn't get scratched in my handbag!

DS is looking a little sleepy so hoping to go back to bed now and have a late lie-in! I'm off out to dinner tonight with a couple of GF's, DH is staying home with DS, kinda feel guilty for going out but I never go out...tomorrow we're going to MIL's down south, so should be fairly restful weekend for me - she takes over DS and its easier just to let her, and she's a bit of a superwoman and does all the cooking too - her house is always beautiful and yes, she works full time. Although she doesn't have kids at home so guess maybe that's the key!

Anyhoo, I'm really rambling, have a lovely Easter weekend all!

Diege · 21/03/2008 10:54

Happy Birthday Cals!!! . Hope you have a lovely day - your plans sound great . Errr, one question though: what is a tomtom?? Not referring to the drums I presume
Have been 'forward planning', and thinking that if I get pregnant first cycle (remote chance) my EDD would be around the first week in Jan. Not sure about this as dd1 and 2 were both 5 days early, and dd3 6 days early, so obviously a pattern emerging...plus subsequent babies are meant to get gradually earlier according to my midwife...Too risky maybe re: xmas baby? But if I miss out April, I only have May before missing out June, etc etc...god I'm boring myself here...
Very windy day here! Am taking dds 1&2 to a party this afternoon which will be OK but for my conjunctivitus being back...whinge whinge..
Hope everyone has a great BH, and hopefully speak later!

Flight · 21/03/2008 10:59

Ladies I hope you don't mind me asking about the thread title, it is brilliant and has been bugging me for ages now so I thought I would ask where it comes from!

Btw may I take this opportunity ofwishing you a Happy Easter with lots of the right kind of eggs

Diege · 21/03/2008 11:15

Hi Flight . Well, we all started off firmly sitting, strapped in, on the wagon that is waiting to ttc (various reasons for waiting from work, to avoiding sickness during hols, financial reasons etc). And then gradually people have been heading toward the door of the wagon (is there a door?) and just jumping! Now the wagon is very much a decrepid, crumpling vehicle, although there are SOME of us I should say that are still clinging on to the sides!!
Hope this makes things clearer! . Are you wanting to climb on the wagon yourself? [lots of room!!]

Flight · 21/03/2008 11:19

Oh thankyou so much for explaining. It all becomes clear

I am waiting to find a partner first, before I can begin to think about babies...ds2 is 9 months old and ds1 is four.

So yes...but I shall be along presently

Diege · 21/03/2008 11:26

Will keep a seat warm for you

MoosMa · 21/03/2008 11:32

Happy birthday Cal!

TMI TMI TMI TMI TMI TMI TMI

So I'm on CD9 of my first cycle after coming off the pill and I have a lot of cm, clearish but pink tinged (I did warn you!), what could it mean?

MoosMa · 21/03/2008 11:34

Very windy here too Diege, rainy too and DH is working all day so I'm house bound

Flight, we'll try to keep the wagon trundling along for you to jump on when you're ready. Maybe when we're down to fewer people we'll do some repairs?

Diege · 21/03/2008 11:36

Hi MOOSMA . Hmmm, maybe implantation bleed from day 8 goF?? . Less hopefully, have heard this is common in first cycle (and sometimes subsequent)cycles after coming off pill - due to changing hormonal levels and the womb lining changing consistency etc etc...

MoosMa · 21/03/2008 11:48

Better not be, I don't want a baby for Christmas!!

I've always had very long cycles before so I wouldn't expect it to be related to impending OV, I guess I'll just wait and see [wishes there was a test for everything]

Flight · 21/03/2008 12:25

I will handily bring a spanner when I enrol

You are a smashing lot on here.

calsworld · 21/03/2008 12:30

MoosMa, I did a google search for cervical mucous and found this article... which talks about brown tinged which is old blood - at CD9 I imagine it is probably the end of your period.

I think I'm on CD10 today so we're very close! Also, I'm not 100% but I think that implantation bleeds happen quite a while after conception so its unlikely to be this...

Think the next seven days are probably critical for us - need to fill up IYSWIM!! GOF's, BD's and explosions all the way!!

DS is hugging my foot!

A tomtom is one of those satellite nav systems that you can use in the car or even on foot! I have to do quite a lot of business travel so this will make life lots easier! I think DH is fed up with me ringing him and asking him to navigate me to where I@m supposed to be!!!

Diege · 21/03/2008 13:04

Cals, of course it is!! ...Agree, it will be great for work
Moos, same here on avoiding xmas baby! I'm planning on doing a big xmas family meal this year (that's if we've moved into a bigger house and think it would be a marginally easier task heavily pregnant than with a week-old baby!

tinkerbell2 · 21/03/2008 13:43

happy birthday calsworld hope you are having a great day.
tom toms are great we have one.

MoosMa · 21/03/2008 13:43

Thing is though Cal, AF packed her bags and left on Tuesday, maybe she just popped back to get something she'd forgotten?

I really don't want a Christmas baby and I really don't want ms in the summer again, especially not July as it's my brother's wedding and my DDs will be bridesmaids so I need to be on top form then!

MoosMa · 21/03/2008 13:45

Oh and it's not brown, it's red!

NatalieJane · 21/03/2008 16:11

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooo Happy birthday Cal By your next birthday your likely to be a mum again!!

Everyone enjoying the BH so far? I am in my element, I am wearing old clothes covered in paint, hair scraped back unwashed paint under my finger nails, and on my face I lurve painting

DH has Homer Simpson's voice on his TomTom he said the original womans voice was un-nerving I have only been in the car about 5 times when he has had it on, and it annoys me so much I'd rather get lost.

I am unimpressivly looking for symptoms, to no avail.

Sorry Moos, can't help with the pinky CM, am liking Diege's idea though, I think if it was brown I'd agree with Cal's link.

Is it wine o'clock yet?
