YAY!!! We're going to the beach. My best friend is coming round and we are going for a paddle.

Just been to my mums to get the car seat, bloody heavy thing. I had to carry it home. Popped into MIL's, she has been looking afer a 4 month old girl as she is a foster parent. I had a cuddle and she is gorgeous, I can't wait for December now. It's a good thing I am already pg or I think it would have made me very very broody.

Hope everyone is ok.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/05/2008 11:32

Have a lovely time Kay

Thanks Tink, you have just reminded me to ring my doc's! I have just realised I will be 6 weeks on Friday, these last couple of weeks have flown by.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/05/2008 11:36

OMG, have just rang them, first available slot for a booking in appointment is the 3rd of June! I will be over 8 weeks by then, I wanted an early scan DH better save his pennies, looks like we will be going private!

Meeely2 · 12/05/2008 11:39

morning all - AF arrived on Saturday (4 years to the day when I had the last AF before I got pregs with boys!) so all is well in the Meeely camp - just wait it out and bed Dh as much as is humanly possible!

tinkisexcited · 12/05/2008 11:43

same here nj my drs is booked up
i am having booking in appmnt @ birthing centre

witchandchips · 12/05/2008 11:44

here they don't see us until 10 weeks

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/05/2008 11:50

A proper hello and welcome to Meeely and Witch, again haven't really spoken to you, feel very much out of the loop!

Sorry about your period Meeely, maybe the coinsiding days will bring good luck to this next cycle?

Tink, everything is done through the GP's here, even the midwives are based at the surgery rather than the hospital or whatever. Am hoping I get asigned to one of the midwives from last time, the one (and only one) that finally listened to me and sent me to hospital for an emergency C/S! Remind me why I wanted to give birth again please?!!

Moosma · 12/05/2008 12:29

Afternonn all! Lovely sunshine here Sorry about your mum NJ, I hope she calls soon. I know what you mean about the little babies Kay, there were 11 week old triplets at the baby group this morning, I had a hold of one and I could've brought her home with me, she was lovely! Ah well, I'm sure it won't be long, I'm on CD61(!) now so something's got to happen soon one way or another!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/05/2008 12:31

Blardy hell Moos!!

When did you last test?

Moosma · 12/05/2008 12:31

Oh yes, and bargain hunters be proud, we went to Clarks Village yesterday and I got 2 skirts for £20 and £22, which were reduced from £45 and £50! Also DH got 3 T-shirts for £55 which should have been £80

Moosma · 12/05/2008 12:32

Oh, ages ago, but I don't think I am pg, I think my ovaries have just lost the plot!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/05/2008 12:35

Well I think you should test and if neg, then think about going to the doctors. You are being far too patient and calm about this!

Moosma · 12/05/2008 12:55

But you see I have a theory!

After I had DD1 AF took a long time to come back as I had very high Prolactin levels (the hormone that makes you produce milk) so I had to take some stuff to lower it, so that I would OV again. I think that's what's happening here. I did have AFs when I was on the pill after DD2 but that's false isn't it? I think that maybe my prolactin levels are still high which means I'm not OVing. Sooooooooooo, last monday I took one of my old tablets and I shall take another one tonight (you only take 1 a week). I seem to remember that last time I only had to take 2 or 3 before AF came so I think that if after 3 weeks I still have nothing then I will go to the dr.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/05/2008 13:01

Hmmmm good theory, but really you know you should consult the doc before you take the meds!

Bit late now though isn't it?!! Good luck, I hope it sort's it all out for you.

Moosma · 12/05/2008 13:03

I know I should in theory, but I've been taking them for 10 years (I had them before DD1) and he's always said to take them if I need them and they're safe to take while pg so I'm not worried!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/05/2008 13:09

Oh well, I am sure you have a good idea of when to take them then!

Fingers crossed it will do the job No wonder you were reasonably calm about it all, most people would have been climbing the walls at 61 days! LOL

calsworld · 12/05/2008 13:28

Morning...quick sneak peek as its lunch time, its taken me 20 minutes to catch up. Wish I had time to chat properly.

Anyway, its CD30 today and still no AF yet. I was going to POAS this morning coz thought I had one in the cupboard but I don't !!!!!! AAARRGGGHHHH!!!

Strangely, I wasn't disappointed, more relieved actually coz I'm so convinced its going to be -ve and I don't want to see another -ve result.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/05/2008 13:30

Get a test, do it tomorrow on Friday

Been said many times, the time you feel you're not pregnant, is the time you are....

Moosma · 12/05/2008 13:45

I must be then, cos I don't feel it at all! Also by my reckoning, the only time I might have OVd was on day 24 which was 5 weeks ago, so I'd be 7 weeks and it'd be puke city here!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/05/2008 13:51

It might be a boy Moos

Just test to put your mind at rest, then you can carry on with your theory if it is neg!

calsworld · 12/05/2008 15:41

Hi NJ, good to see you're back btw, I've missed you! I was thinking Friday originally but DH is away and I can't wait till he's back Sunday (night so would be Monday) so if no AF by Thursday I'll test then...

Keep your fingers crossed for me girls!

Anyone else at the end of their 2ww?

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 12/05/2008 15:51

Awwww thankyou, I have missed you 'orrible lot as well

Have just spoken to my sister, she ended up just trying my mums old number yesterday and it actually worked so I rang mum after I got DS1 from school, not a word was mentioned about the fact that she hadn't rang, or that we haven't spoken for nearly two weeks, or that her old line is working, until I said about it. Still then no apology or anything, she just went on to say that up until Friday just gone, the line was a bit iffy because they'd let her keep her old number, but it hadn't connected properly or something... don't know if I am now more cross, or if I am less cross and less bothered. So fed up of going around in circles, making excuses for her, brushing things under the now very bumpy carpet, but then at the same time, she is my mum, and try as I might, I can't just wipe her out of our lives. I do think I am going to take a back seat now though and not be the one always making the effort to speak to her, I'll ring every couple of weeks to make sure she is OK, and that is it, no more no less.

Sorry, have ranted again

Yes to testing tomorrow Thursday!

kayzisexpecting · 12/05/2008 16:42

Hello,

Glad you finally got to speak to your mum Nat.

We went to the beach and it was cloudy and a it cold. It was very misty, so not very good. The sea was bloody freezing but we had a paddle. DS fell over and of course rubbed all the sand of his hands into his eyes.
