In the Company of Pregnant Ladies (No1 Babies Detective Agency pt6)

[nomoremagnolia]

Thought it was time we had a new home, seeing as we've almost outgrown the old one. So in honour to Scorpio, Sybil, BB and toomuch (hope I didn't forget anyone ) here we are - in the company of pregnant (and cheerful) ladies

Hi gilly nice to see you back, glad you had a good time away. Fingers and toes crossed for you tomorrow - I really hope it has worked for you
I phoned the clinic to tell them again that I got BFN and they said that I can go again from Aug, but we won't be able to afford another go til Oct at the earliest. I will still be around but we won't be 'actively' ttc until we've saved the money to do IVF again. I will still be around on here though!
In the meantime I have been doing some more knitting - pics going on profile now

bleurgh, just realised how rubbish that last post was, sorry it didn't make sense!

toomuch any news on what colour wool I need to be buying?

gilly sending the biggest good luck vibes your way this morning Fingers are tightly crossed for you

Gilly, hope you're feeling better. And fingers crossed! Glad holiday was good - wool sounds interesting, but the chances I will ever get somewhere like that and actually be allowed to do any SHOPPING are remote! I'll just have to be jealous.

Love the little brown Ugg boots - they are really cute. Ill have to look for some of my knitting patterns that I know I've got somewhere. Must get some wool and do a nice jumper for ds that he can actually get over his head for this winter (contemplating splitting seams on T shirts and sweatshirts - they are the right size, but getting them over his head is really difficult)

Gilly. and you are ill too, how crap.

My period came back today

i htought s too; it must be because she sleeps so well at night? she doesnt have any formula or even a bottle of breastmilk once a week....guess im just unlucky!

(((gilly)))

Scorpio - that is unlucky. I at least managed about 9 months, by which time he was eating quite a bit.

Took the dog out for a walk this morning rather than spend time with not so ds - usually dh does dog and I do ds... First thing - please can we put your sweatshirt on so you don't drop breakfast down your teashirt as you've got class photos... ignore, ignore, protest... try to take tshirt off him as an alternative - strongly resisted, insist on sweatshirt and he still hadn't listened to why I wanted him to wear it. Got down stairs - he sits at table with breakfast in front of him. Eats 1 cherio (only a sprinkle on top of muesli ) with his fingers. I say - you won't be able to watch any TV unless you eat your breakfast up quickly (yesterday he took an hour to eat a bowlful) he starts whingeing 'sorry mummy'(repeated) - so I point out that he doesn't need to appologise and that he would be better to eat his breakfast instead - cue meltdown and wailing. Walked out with the dog at this stage. Back to being friends by the time I got back, but it was one of those mornings.... Sometimes makes me wonder whether I really want another one in the first place!

Gilly Really sorry. Hope you feel better soon.

Mistlethrush What a morning! Hope your day gets better!

Where is everybody?

Hi MT sorry I've not really had much to say recently, after the IVF failing DH's grandma died over the w/e so we've been pretty low in the nomore house. Hope your day got better though.

Nomore hope things improve a bit this w/e. You've had a bad time of it recently. Can you have a bit of 'time out' together this w/e - go off and do something nice together - out for tea, dinner or something. It all puts a lot of pressure on a relationship, and dh's grandma dying must have just been an extra straw that you both could have done without at this time.

Mind you, sounds as though it might be a bit wet over the w/e, so perhaps you ought to get your wellies and umbrellas out and go and do something silly like puddle jumping together

I wonder what umbrella Nomore might like...

www.umbrellart.co.uk/proddetail.php?prod=US124 would this be any good?

who is looking for a zooper zydeco? i am selling mine cos ds prefers to walk mostly now so i only need something small.

thanks MT

Nappyaddict I think a couple of people were just looking at Zooper Zydecos - thanks for thinking of us / them but sadly, most of us are still ttc so not in a position to buy!

What we really need is some good news on this thread to brighten us all up! Sadly, I have none (CD2 - didn't think I'd mind as much now we've got a timetable for IUI. That was clearly a bit optimistic on my part!) Anyway, I am off to rainy sunny (yes - ever the optimist!) Ireland tomorrow for a couple of weeks with hopefully some nice, relaxed bd-ing towards the end . Last cycle before IUI. I'm not taking my laptop so will remain mostly blissfully out-of-touch so hope you all have a good fortnight.

Nomore / Gilly Hope you're both doing ok. Have been thinking of you.

Mistlethrush Is DH making any progress on finding a new job so life is less stressful?

Hello and big wave to everyone else .

CD3 here.

oh sorry i feel really bad now. didn't realise this was in conception and not pregnancy. doh

Don't feel bad NappyAddict, it's great to be thought of - what is the Zydecco like? It looks lovely. Where did you get yours from because I can't seem to find a stockist in England - and when I emailed for details they never got back to me.

i got it off ebay. they used to sell it in john lewis so there are a few second hand ones about. i really like it but ds walks mostly now so i only really need something small. i find it quite hard to push whilst holding ds' hand when he walks.

Ready I'm sorry . I really feel like we could do with a run of good luck around here.

I just said that hobnobs, on the forever thread. We are due a run of good luck!!

nappyaddict, I would love to be in a position to buy your zooper, but alas, it is still not happening for me. Hope you find a purchaser...

...perhaps toomuch might be interested??
