Mid Thirties First time TCC

[donttrythisathome]

Anyone feel like joining this bus??

I'm 36, TCC 1, never wanted children and now have done a complete u-turn!

TCC 1, Cycle 2, UCL 28-33ish, CD12

cosmosis I love the idea of bringing the A-game to a tent. May your guy ropes twang with tension! The Sunday Night Drama possibilities are endless for that one...

(I really like Bringing the A-Game, instead of the usual BD. It sort of sums up that determination of trying to make a baby at this stage of life.)

and laurielou am very much with you on the worrying if you do/ worrying if you don't. I'm trying to spin it to myself as being fine about it either way, baby or no baby. Neither OH or I really want to go down the IVF route, so we've decided to give it our best shot (so to speak, groan) for a couple of years, and not let it get obsessional - which is easy for a bloke to say, because he's not the one living his life with cycle days flashing on the back of his head the whole time.

Right ladies, am joining you for real now - like VeryAnnie - I still (at 39) don't feel grown up enough for a baby but biological clock says its now or never, so here is to attempt number 3 at TTC#1

I shall toast in vodka rather than gin, Absolut being my poison of choice I have 2 cats and mostly cream or pale yellow walls - if I have a 3rd miscarriage, I'll be giving up and getting another kitten !

Planning on getting stupendously drunk tonight to erase this latest MC from my memory, then will be trying again asap

Oh, jools, so sorry. [hug]

Jools so sorry about your news, hope you get good and drunk tonight. xx

Jools so sorry about your news, hope you get good and drunk tonight. xx

jools so sorry to hear your news. I hope you enjoy a good drink tonight.

And welcome to the thread, x

jools sorry for your news. Have a voddy on me tonight

wildfig I agree, the A-Game is much better than DTD or BD isn't it! they sound so twee.

DTD?

doing the deed

Ah-ha, I was wondering what DTD was too. Bringing the A-Game is fab (BAG)!
But my favourite at the moment is Business Time (from Flight of the Conchords).

Jools sorry also to hear your news. Here's to many many voddies this evening.

Jools feeling for you. I'm thinking maybe your favourite take away to accompany the booze.
No matter what therapists say, comfort eating and drinking do make you feel better.

Okay so my living room walls are Estate Agent Magnolia - don't judge me! My kitchen is blue & my bedroom is yellow, I just haven't painted my living room yet.

Our cats are very handsome tabby brothers from the local shelter and they are called Mashaka ("trouble" in Swahili) and Makwela ("the one who climbs trees" in Shangaan).

Cosmosis - I also got my 1st period after coming off the pill. At least now I can start charting my cycle.

donttrythisathome - boo that's a long wait. However crisps are very comforting and salt & vulgar my favourite flavour.

skihorse - what is this "two year old vodka" of which you speak?

I am having some very lovely white wine and laughing at the MasturbatingWife thread. I am very happy to find so many witty/irreverent threads - when I signed up for Mumsnet I had no idea what the posters would be like. One of the first threads I saw was a very rude bumsex one with everyone exchanging banter and filth. And I thought "I could get to like it here".

PS Just saw jools' post, chin up girl. x

Sorry to hear about your mc Jools - I've also threatened DH with another kitten if this doesn't work. Talisker our cat was such hard work as a kitten I think he'd prefera baby - plus as she's spoilt rotten she'd be insanely jealous of another cat. Her name is a type of malt whisky - another drink of which I am fond.

Lovely cat name, Liskey.

Cheers - I was going to say earlier but forgot I thought your names were gorgeous - especially Mashaka - cats are trouble in any language!

Talisker was a girl cats name and it was going to be Oban for a boy - keeps name in reserve if needed later.....

Genius names! Are they whisky-coloured? Or peaty and smoky or whatever whiskies are supposed to taste of beneath the general 'whisky taste'?

We have a reserve cat's name for when we give up the idea of holidays entirely and get a cat to go with the dog; he's going to be a black cat called Barry, short for Barrichello. Our dog is quite posh - she needs a streetwise sidekick who can do some plastering and dodgy MOTs.

I'm gutted I can't find the bum sex threads - I only skimread the headlines so must've also missed the big black cocks one.

I watched that Hospital episode last night - I'd downloaded it during the week. Grrr, grrrrr and grrrr. That is all on the subject at this time.

Off up the stables now - I've been told before that this makes me the type of woman who should never be allowed children - and an "evil witch".

Hey skihorse, what do you mean by that hospital episode? I may have had my head under a rock over the past few weeks and not noticed anything.

Oh and I think I stumbled across a bumsex thread the other day... there were lots of people debating whether you could have it by accident or not. It's the only one I've seen, although the ladies seemed quite obsessed about it and intimated there were others...

Hi Back to cats (feels this is a safer topic) She's a Asian/Burmese cross - and has different shades of brown in her fur - pictures of her in my profile. I'm slightly biased I know but she's gorgeous.

THAT is one beautiful, whisky-coloured cat! Perfect name. I wish they did adult size radiator bed slings.

Liskey your cat is beautiful.

Of course I think mine are too, but I suspect in reality they are quite ordinary (see I swear I am going to be a terrible mother who thinks her child looks like a Dalek or something). Both are moggies , one is black and white and the other is every colour under the sun.

If you tell me how to upload photos I will put on up so you can inspect!

Lol - my DH wishes they did radiator beds as well. Saying that the cat is at present hiding under our duvet working on the theory if she can't see us we can't see her and kick her out.

Pistachio - to upload photos - you need to login to My Mumsnet - then down to Public profile - Show Photos and Photo Gallery - next Upload more photos and then browse and find photo

Ok, can you see anything now?

PistachioLemon Oh just a quick synopsis of the NHS including chain-smoking obese teens who either didn't use contraception OR thought that a 4 week relationship was long enough to plan a pregnancy. Demanding c-sections with general anaesthesia and moaning that they'd had to wait aaaaages for a council house - i.e., she was still pregnant when she got it. Oh... and a fear of needles - despite having facial piercings!

... and we neuter our animals!

On the other hand... I semi-envy these braindead idiots - why on earth did I try NOT to become a teenage mum?
