The Wagon rambles on - and my goodness so do we...yet another thread for TTC'ers and those waiting to TTC

[calsworld]

Sorry, decided not to wait for a vote....hope its OK!

i aint going yet if LL's testing!!!

48 mins left on my car!!

Thanks Nat. I think he will say "NO WAY" but he may surprise me. He just said if it involves spending stupid amounts of money the answer is no.

Good luck with the car Glask!

night glaskham....

it cost me no less than £20 for my home birth with dd!!! i didn't have a birthing pool though!!

I will be buying a birth pool. The DCs could use it as a large paddling pool when I'm finished with it.

Don't mention anything about money yet, just get him used to the idea first, how much you would love it, how much you want it, how much you don't want to be in hospital again, gather some info, there is enough of it, explain how the MW wouldn't let you if she thought there was any reason you shouldn't and she is the expert after all, he'll cave in less than an hour...!

C'mon LL, DH is 5 mins away, and I am supposed to be getting the kids ready to go!

I wont mention money yet.

I think he thinks I have found some over the top double pushchair!

Kay the only thing I would say is do loads and loads of research into what can go wrong, not only so you make the right choice for you, but so that you will have a much better idea at the time. Have heard stories about MW's rushing people into hospital for no reason that couldn't be sorted at home.

Also, be aware that you do have to sign a form to say that if something happens to the baby/you because you were at home, and not in hospital (where it may, or may not have been picked up on before it became a problem) so basically you can't sue the pant's off them. They will go through the things that could happen, so will be informed, but still research it all yourself.

there are some cheap ones on ebay at only £60!!! thats cheap!!!

LL come onnnnnnnn!! I am on borrowed time here!

Right you can all go I got a BFN as expected......

I have just started a thread in childbirth for info and stuff.

The book just says you can have the baby at home if you have no problems.

i never had to sign any form i dont think!!! MW's here must be much more laid back!! if and when i get pg, if i'm not already it will defo be another home birth.... DH wasn't keen on the idea until afetr dd was born!!.... he went along with it to keep me happy...

Oh LL, I am sorry but its probably too early.

Awww LL, you know the drill, t'is too early etc. Hope you are OK? Hate to run, but I really must get these ready!

Have a good night everyone, good luck on the car Glask xxx

Kay it is too early I just couldn't control my self....

It is hard isn't it.

I am such a child..... not upset at all as I am only 9dpo.....

LL- sorry for the BNF but hold onto them hopes that it was too early to detect a BFP!!

thanks NJ.... its hit its reserve already, and still has 9 watchers.... hoping it goes for about an extra £100.... we're more than happy with it as it is now tbh... but more wouldn't go a miss!!

wuhoo the car sold for £120 more than the reserve we were happy with!!

so we have £300 difference to what our new one cost us!!

My sister has still not arrived with the chinese so we're starving!!! she's at the chinese now waiting for it!!

I am off now. night ladies.... dont think i'll be on tomorrow but will be on thursday!!

It's happened again! I leave you all at 6.45am this morning and return at 6.45pm this evening to find 8 pages to catch up on!!!
What a day!!!
Playing - yay!!! I know what you mean about that warm smiley feeling once you are officially ttc - enjoy!
Kay - hope it is only 24 hr bug you poor thing
LL - fun testing but defo too early to know for certain
Kooky - Sorry AF got you - better luck next month
Glaskham - Sounds encouraging - fingers crossed!

Whoever updates "the list" next could you add me on:
Ses 35, ttc dc1, NOW
Is that right??!

Also, could someone help a newbie out? I'm sure I'm going to feel really silly when I hear the answer but what does EWCM stand for??

EWCM = egg white cervical mucus. A sure sign you're about to ovulate!

Guys I just had something EVEN worse than AF arriving....

My DD chucked one of my beautiful once-in-a-lifetime camel suede LKBennett heels into the bath. Permission to scream????

Thanks Kooky!

Oh my god Kooky scream away....
