The addictable wagoners have abandoned ship - to a field.... for waiting to TTC'ers and TTC'ers alike, all welcome!!!

[NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain]

Thought someone had better do it! Hope titles OK?

Huge congrats again Gruff

has anyone experienced implantation bleeding? i just been to toiley and wiped and some dark brownish discharge not blood type substance? sorry for tmi!! not due on for another 7/8 days

chatterboxes - haven't got a clue what's been going on!....welcome to the newbies!

Emlou - its possible? You'll probably have to wait and see what happens though I'm afraid...

KK - sorry for TEW - at least you've got Diege as cycle buddy this time round

Glaskham - sorry to hear about your traumas, I echo everything NJ (and others) has said on the subject

Feel like a bit of a weight is off my shoulders now I've met the MW and she was nice. The only negative points of the booking in was a) she retires at christmas and b) my blood pressure was quite high when its usually on the low side....she said we'd see what it was doing at my next appt. which isn't till 16 weeks and seems ages away!

emlou84 - I haven't or at least if I have I didn't notice... Sounds a bit like it though if your AF isn't due yet. Roll on 28th Aug!

i had a bit of pink the day before my bfp, and also got some actually tiny blood clots on the of my first bfp... i'm gathering that was maybe late implantation bleeding.

LOL KK, dipping was indeed the hot topic of conversation on some of the earlier wagoner threads It was at the time that so many of us were waiting very impatiently to jump off the wagon, and dipping was the best we could hope for

Em, I think you would normally expect implantation bleeding around or after your expected period due date.

Cal, where have you been? Shame about the MW retiring, will you meet her replacement before then? Lots of feet up and rest for you young lady, let's get the BP down, while MN'ing the days away

Hello! Back from hairdressers, feeling all 'swishy' though rain on the way back didn;t help . Have been having a chat with hairdresser and she says that next time I'm pregnant she's got a new technique for covering roots that's safe in pregnancy - sort of like highlights, using foils, so that the colour doesn't touch the scalp (although I know colouring is pretty much safe, I'm super-paranoid after mc). She can't wait to try it so fingers crossed I don't keep her waiting too long!EM, sounds pretty mich like implantation bleed to me, so fingers crossed .
Cals, I've always had high (ish) blood pressure at beginning of pregnancy, and my midwife said a single reading is nothing to worry about. They'll keep an eye on it if it creeps up at subsequent appointments, but it's taken as a baseline to measure other measurements. My measurements stayed same throughout, and no-one was concerned as there were no sudden rises
GLASK, enjoy the newborn clothes! I gave all of mine to sister, who I hope has kept some of them!
Hello to everyone else, lol Nat at dipping explanation - seems quite a 'vintage' thing now on this thread! It was funny how we all moved onto the full explosions before our times!
Right, will try and catch up on Olympics before a leisurely lunch and a flick through Heat and Grazia. It's a hard life

Hi NJ - where have i been? Umm don't know really....been trying to stay off in the evenings a little as not spending much time with DH since getting the bfp!

During the day am struggling to get on as I have soooo much work to do. Am missing deadlines left right and centre and under quite alot of pressure - did wonder if this was the reason for my high BP reading yesterday.

Would be nice to get signed off work for the next 32 weeks but somewhat unlikely!

you guys r great!! having people to talk to when something happens! i had a sinking feeling when it happen but oh well if its not PG we'll hav eto try again next month!! more being puncd on for my dh!! he loves it really. when do you think i could do a test AF due 28/8

probably from the 24th something could show... but thats if you dont mind seeing a bfp because its too early?? i got my first (very) faint bfp on the saturday, and i wasn't due till the monday, so 3 days before AF was due...

Afternoon all, thought I better check is as I've been AWOL without permission for a few days. .

Welcome all the newbies - the thread could certainly do with more ttcers, as many of us are now pg. Its amazing when you think about it. This thread started as a waiting ttc thread in Jan, so many of us had months to wait before ttcing yet so many of us are now pg. It must be a lucky thread.

Cal - work is really busy for me as well at the moment, not helped by me being a lot less on the ball right now. I also don't have time to be on here in the evening either really as I'm going to bed so early.

Glask - agree with everyone else, as sad as it is I think your friend isn't a real friend. She was the one that was out of order over the surrogacy business not you

Deige - the power of a new hair cut!

KK - sorry about you period. Think next month might be you and Deiges motnh!

Can't for the life of me think what else I was going to say now, so I think I better leave it at that.

Hi Playing! Good to hear from you . How are you feeling? Hope work isn't too taxing, and that you are getting plenty of rest in the evening.
Oh it sooo tiring just doing nothing . Meant to change the beds, but think I'll have a cuppa and read through Grazia .

Hi Deige. Pretty shitty tbh, but slightly less shitty then a week ago so think things are improving slightly. How about you? You seem in good spirits ttc again, I can't even imagine how hard it must be to start again. Fingers crossed thing will happen for you quickly.

I'm bored. What's everyone doing.....?

I'm lurking in the back ground.

Have just bought DS2 a new high chair, we have one of those Chicco ones, cost £100 when we bought it last year, it is the most horrendous contraption you've ever laid your eyes on, much worse than celery . I've been saying for ages I want a different one, and finally got round to sorting it out

No more soaking straps in dettol, or taking it to pieces to get the raisins out of the seat parts Whoooo hooooooooooooooooo

i've looked through all my ebay stuff and am very happy!! there are 155 vests and sleepsuits in all, about a third are newborn, a third 0-3 and the last third is 3-6 so i doubt i'll be needing any vests or sleepsuits!! Also there are lots of cute little booties, over 25 pairs of scratch mittens, and loads of them are brand new still!! some with tags on, some still in packets they came in!! and it only cost me £9!! I'm over the moon!!

most of it is unisex but about a handful of things in each side are boys, so lets hope this is the little man i'm after!!

other than that i'm still waiting in for the blimin courier, and missed an afternoon of shopping with my sister because of waiting in still!!

Bored here too Cals, though in a nice relaxed way .
Thanks Playing . I am not massively concerned how long ttc takes me tbh. This is my last baby, and while it would be nice to get a bfp this month part of me also wants to have a bit longer avoiding the stress/worry that will ineviatbly follow next time. But my head tells me I'll be 39 next year, and I need to get going. Plus I would like to be pregnant by the time of my due date (Feb 12th). Glad you're feeling a little less grotty...give it a few weeks and you'll be blooming and full of energy, promise
Right, I really must go and do something! Trying to convince myself olumpic weight-lifting is too good to miss , but the kitchen is a tip and I need to get the beds changed - arghh, I hate that job!

Ooops sorry, celery - wrong thread

Damn it, thought I was doing so well keeping the two threads apart today!

what high chair did you get NJ? I'm hoping i can get this

Oooh Diege - am liking the Olumpics - think I'll be able to participate in them!

LOL You will laugh when I explain $$$$'s spent on highchairs over the years has led to this....

DS1 started with one of those wooden high chairs that turned into a table and chair later on, it broke, we got a booster type one to go on the dining chairs, but then bought new dining chairs and I didn't want the grooves from the booster seat ruining the new chairs, so we ended up buying this ugly plastic thing from Argos, £20 or somesuch, and it was excellent, it all came apart to go in the dishwasher, he was happy in it, it didn't break etc.

So when DS2 was ready for weaning we tried to get the same (or very similar) from Argos, but they didn't do them anymore so we went for the Chicco one, but it is such a PITA, so I was just browsing on eBay and came across something that is very similar to the Argos DS1 had BNIB £13!!!! £9 p&p but ohhhh soooooooo worth it

Can not believe how excited I am over a high chair LOL

haha!! actually you've had me browsing boots as they have 20% off highchairs atm!!

LOL at olumpics I'd probably take a bit of notice if they were called that.

Glaskham ! HOW MUCH!

Deep breaths cal - you can afford this baby.....

I've been eyeing up a cheapy from mothercare but I'm quite specific.

Has to be free standing when folded, have to be able to remove straps easily for cleaning, most importantly, when you recline the chair I want the whole seat to roll back, not just the back of it to lean back, IYSWIM?

Oh, and not to have to do half a dozen nuts and bolts to get the seat cover off would be a bonus!!

I've got an imitation trip-trap that DS uses when he's at the IL's but think I'm going to get it back for when the new babe arrives as he doesn't need to be in a high chair any more and want to get him out of it well before hand.

DH and I think he's going to be Mr Super Jealous Pants when the new DC arrives - I had an SOS call from a friend asking if I could pick up her DS from nursery last night - he goes to the same one as my DS. No problem, I even have two car seats fitted in my car (don't ask ) so no probs there. Brought them home and every time friends DS picked up a toy, DS shrieked and wailed and threw tantrums.

Friends DS was an angel and just kept giving my DS his toys back! Far more sociable and affable than my DS. Did threaten his mum a DS swap so she could teach mine some manners!

pressed post before i was finished!!

i have had a booster on our dining chair for DD since she was 12mths...

and oh my courier has just been!!! wuhoo!!

cals- my pram only cost £50 though.... so i've saved some money...and my mum will give me £100 to put towards some bits too (just something she's done for the other 2, and for my sister)... so what my mum gives me will probably buy me a used cot and new mattress for in it..
