cantwaitforxmas · 09/09/2008 15:09

Hi all, after a fantastic weekend with my lovely godson and niece, DP and I have decided to TTC. We are going to wait until xmas as I just started a new job a few months ago and DP can't transfer to same city until end of year. So a few months to go until we even start TTC but I am already very very excited - I have wanted to TTC for a while but DP was unsure at first. I hope this isn't too soon to join this thread. BTW this will be our first.

cantwaitforxmas · 09/09/2008 15:17

PS Congratulations to 2BG and EM!!!

Diege · 09/09/2008 15:31

Hello CWFX! (or should we just call you xmas )You're very welcome to join, and are not too ealry at all. I think there are at least 2 others who are waiting till Jan. It's a fast-moving thread, but always interesting and very funny .
TINKS, meant to say in all the excitement that I am the lone voice who likes the Rosebud house best

calsworld · 09/09/2008 15:39

Massive congratulations to 2BG and Em! Its about time we had some BFP's in the wagon!

Can'twaitforxmas - can I just call you xmas ('cant' sounds a bit odd!) - its never too early to join the wagon!

Think its time for a list update, hope you don't mind, but I've given it a bit of a re-vamp as there's so many preggers peeps now its hard to see who's actually TTC!;

  • bugger, now I've lost my bolds... must rememeber to use the preview option!

Have got my ipod cable, finally, after a bit of traipsing around and found a cute little shop selling material next to the electrical shop so picked up some material to make a couple of pillowcases for DS' little cot pillow. £3 for the material and matching cotton - bargain!

cantwaitforxmas · 09/09/2008 16:05

I'm happy to be called xmas or CWFX as long as I don't have to wear a santa suit ! I'm 29, no DC yet, and waiting ttc january(ish).

2beautifulgals · 09/09/2008 16:22

Welcome Xmas

Thanks Dal, Cals, Diege and Xmas.

So do you guys think i can get a little bit excited even thought its so early?

lastboxoftampons · 09/09/2008 16:46

WOW! Congrats to you both!

Cals I think you'll find that our very own Ses is also knocked up!

It's so lonely on the TTC now bit of the list!

calsworld · 09/09/2008 16:52

Do you know LBOT, I did spot that, but then didn't want to put her on in case she hadn't put herself on for a reason......I'll repost in a sec with xmas' details too.

We are a bit thin on the ground for active TTC'ers aren't we - I'll be over as soon as AF shows up though ...and anyhow, its good that we have loads of graduates!

I'm a bit all over the place today, must be the excitement of actually doing something.

2BG, of course you can be a little bit excited - getting pg in the first place is a mahoosive achievement and miracle of nature! Your time chilling away from the board ( - you've not been gone that long have you? ) must have helped ...

CONGRATS EM AND 2BGS WHAT GREAT NEWS [GRIN][GRIN]

www.elc.co.uk/toy/snow-queen-palace/

SHALL I GET THIS PALACE

OR

www.elc.co.uk/toy/dolls-mansion/

DD WILL BE 3 YEARS AND 4 MONTHS @ XMAS

WAS ALSO THINKING OF

www.elc.co.uk/toy/rosebud-dolls-house/

BASICALLY IF I GET EITHER OF THE TOP 2 CAN GET DD SOMETHING ELSE AS WELL

IF I GET ROSEBUD HOUSE CAN JUST GET THAT AS NEED TO BUY LOTS OF ROOMS FOR IT

Diege · 09/09/2008 18:07

Tink, you are like a woman possessed In light of the new info, I'd go for the mansion.
Hi LB!
The 3 BFPs reminded me that we haven't had a test count down for a while now. Though there's an extremely low chance this month for me, my af is due weekend, so if it hasn't arrived by then (yeah right)I'll test first thing Monday

Diege · 09/09/2008 18:08

Arghh, meant 2 bfps...must be thinking of Lardy's 3s

tinkhasanactivebean · 09/09/2008 18:12

cheers diege

once i set my mind on something i cant stop thinking about it will be ordering her xmas bits on elc end of oct with 20% off voucher

GruffaloSoldier · 09/09/2008 18:14

Evening everybody,

CONGRATS ON THE BFPS WOO WOO!

Still grinning about the scan Glask - just looked at list, we are only three days apart!

Sorry to hear youre having problems Teuch.

Tink I vote the mansion but like the rose bud aswell. Would have loved either as a kid. Go with whatever is more practical (like with mansion you said you would get her other pressies)coz I reckon she'll be thrilled with either.

Welcome newbie Xmas!

Just updating now I have an official due date!!

lardybump · 09/09/2008 18:44

Diege sorry to trouble you but can you explain something to me. MW was slightly worried about my blood sugar count saying that it was quiet high at 6.6 and is sending me for another test in 3 weeks time where I can not eat for set time before hand. Should i be cutting down the sweet things I am eating just incase???? I have been eating lots of fruit and lots of cakes as well so could this be the problem... Bit worried as my brother is diabetic and my dad has high sugar levels. I have never had any problems before however and my tests have always been low.

There was no protein or sugar in my urine so that is a good sign isn't it??

emlou84 · 09/09/2008 20:41

cal details my AF was due on the 28th august so think my EDD will be may sometime im 24 and PG with DC3! think i will do my CBD trial test tomoro so i can see how far after conceptio is. im at doctors in friday morning so think will know more then.

well done 2BG when was your AF due? how far are you? x

Diege · 09/09/2008 20:45

Hi Lardy. I am by no means an expert of this, but yes 6.6 is slightly high (normal between 4.5 and 5.5 I think). It could be higher if you'd had something sweet a few hours before being tested, or could simply be a 'blip'. To get a proper reading you really need to do serial readings throughout then day. I think the fasting blood sugar test is something they do to rule out gestational diabetes, and may also doa glucose intoleranec test - don't panic! If by any chance you were to develop this, it almost always disappears after baby is born.
Diet-wise, if I were you between now and the next test I'd try and eat lots of slow release complex carbs - wholemeal bread, sweet potatoes, sunflower seeds, lentils, pluses, porridge!! - try to keep away from simple sugars (even things like white bread).
You will be fine I'm sure - it's commonplace in USA to have glucose monitored and 6.6 isn't so bad.
