Emmsy's weebles, from TTC to new arrivals, it's all going on here.

[VJay]

Ok, here we are, a new thread to see us into the next decade, and to celebrate more BFP's, growing bumps and new arrivals, and to enjoys those already here

Oh bugger. Well I would suggest buying a first response. I was sceptical about them until last cycle when they were the only tests out of three different brands that showed my bfp (& quite a dark line it was too).

AND you can use them at any time of the day, not just first thing.

I tend to avoid First Response simply because I've never had a positive result with them and think they are bad luck !

Hmmmmmm well maybe it'd be worth buying a Clearblue or something like that? (Not the digital one, they are the work of the devil).

Well I'm not feeling up to trekking into town at the moment, and should be working from home, so the likelihood of me buying a test before tomorrow is fairly remote.

This cold I've had keeps coming back and I really and truly feel very nauseous - had thought this was probably a pg symptom, but if it isn't, I need to see a GP anway as this isnt right.

Oh Jools sorry you are having to go through this waiting & uncertainty. If you lived closer I'd bring over a couple of hpt's out of my stash.

hehe - MLS I never realised till today just how much of a testing habit you had

Tis OK - I'm just grumpy and annoyed with myself for not just waiting. I've had positive tests at 13DPO before (today is 16DPO) - and that time, I had an ambiguous result on a Boots test, not an emphatic BFN. Sooo, it doesn't sound good. I'll be grumpy for a day and a bit embarrassed about being so over-excited, then get over it

Hi jools don't be embarassed we all want this for you too, it aint over though til the ew arrives, but I really hope she doesn't

mls did you go to bed last night?

Both ds's were unsettled last night but since getting up and seeing the weather reports it's not suprising, -20 up here . I actually thought my heating hadn't come on but the radiators are blazing and it's still cold . Hope you are all a little warmer where you are and very of barbie right now

Oh bugger, jools Not a good start to the day.....

Vjay I'm addicted to Big Brother hence the late nights!

Oh bum jools! Never the less i shall remain forever hopeful X .....Monkey really glad ur ds ok, i sneaked a peak at ur pics & he is just adorable! Also listened to that beautiful tune on ur link & nearly made me cry too! Put pho to tummy & sure i felt a flutter! Think have been for last few days but still not sure? What film was it? Really rings a bell, was also good to get the spiderman theme tune out of my head as dreamt he collaborated with batman & made tv prog called spiderbat! My preg dreams are just so freaky & last night also inc a talking horse that mistook me for my 8yr old niece! ......BRRR is all i can say to you Vjay you poor love! .....Morning to Mls & Lbm too! .....Must dash, gonna see if sales still on to pick up a couple of early birthday pres for dh before i meet him for the food shop at 1pm! Not til feb 18th but tryin to be organised before im wiped out being back at work! X

Ooh mls im addicted too!

Oh Jools, that's rubbish!!

Morning girls, one hour til scan...need to go and drink lots of water apparently.
Barbie no we're not finding out flavour, well hopefully not anyway!

jools so sorry, that sucks hope tomorrow bring better news.

monkey I loooove that song too, beautiful. Was the film 50 First Dates? That song also plays on the saddest ever ER episode when Mark Greene dies so always makes me emotional

4ever well done for getting through yesterday and just so glad you got some reassurance. Hope Monday looming isn't too horrible.

So so sorry I don't have time for more... gotta dash, dh will be home soon and I should be working love to all x

oh jools am gutted for you but it aint over til the evil witch arrives. dont want to put a downer on things, but remember my stupidly long cycle of 42 days where i was convinced i was pregnant too and i wasnt. arrrggghhh its sooooo horrible waiting isnt it, i really feel for you.

jools boo to the test - but agree with everyone else that until AF comes you're still in the game. x

vjay -20!!!!

Hope scan goes well cupcake x

Good luck cupcake - enjoy seeing your LO

My scan is now next Thursday - they did offer Monday but I really, really need to go to work soon!

Oh cupcake just tx you to wish u well for this mornings scan, didnt think ud get on this morn! Big hug... Just popped back cos dutifully called new frosty knickers manager at work to confirm my return, got horrid cold hello, no how are you, no happy new year, just cold curt & frosty, said she had someone with her so would call back, sooooo lacking in people skills, worst manager iv ever had & i had alot.. This woman iv known for years & even came to wedding but recently made a manager & had total personality transplant [grr] Must do my damndest to not let it stress or upset me & just pity the bitter cow & let it go over my head...

Barbie they said George was about average size, they commented quite a few times about quite how low down he is but looking at the rest of mumsnet their are quite a few people walking (or trying to walk!) around for weeks with heads engaged. The George has been back to normal manic bouncing and kicking since.

Monkey I?m pleased to hear your DS is recovering nicely. Yes I really must pack that hospital bag today. I spent all evening yesterday updating my "George" scrap book with bump pics and scan pics etc, nice but not very useful! I need to pack that bag! I got a bit obsessed with collecting things that prove I was pregnant after miscarrying before. In fact I was a bit shocked to see John lewis have brought out a whole nursery design in the same pattern as the cute box I bought to put all my "Fred" pregnancy stuff in. (I hope I'm not confusing anyone nicknaming my pregnancies, but it helps to make the pregnancies individual).

Mermaid sounds great about the guide dog pups, though I think I?d struggle to give them back!

4ever I?m really pleased you are getting well looked after by the NHS.

Cupcake thinking of you for your scan.

MLS I never had any will power regarding testing either!

If anyone can remember me talking about my male best friend who?s girlfriend was pregnant and having lots of problems with the baby and their relationship (due to best friends mum dying suddenly and my best friend having a bit of a breakdown. Also girlfriends previous pregnancy was a stillborn). I?ve been taking her for weekly scans since 30 weeks as they were going to induce her. Well she made it as far as 39 weeks and she?s had a baby Boy called Joseph, 6lbs 1oz. He?s lovely!! Also the week of the birth my best friend (who I?ve barely seen since getting pregnant ? we just email now) and girlfriend seem to have got their act together, and he was there for the birth and has seen the baby every day since. I was quite relieved not to have to be birth partner ? a bit too close to my own baby?s birth for comfort I think!

DH off work again today so hopefully we?ll get some more DIY jobs finished to help with my nesting!!!

Uuurrggghh I feel shit. One of my best friends came over on a play date this morning & she's told me she's 7 weeks pregnant. She really found it hard telling me & she is lovely but I'm having such a problem with it. She didn't even want another child. Since my first mc a year ago, so many of my friends have fallen pregnant & had babies. Why can't it be me?

i love working from home my boss has had a bit of a strop with me cuz i cant get in, i said if you wanna come and get me then do so

mls i would find that incredibly difficult too, im in the same position as you where so many people have had babies in the year where i lost 2. its not fair. but its not unreasonable to feel that way, or at least i dont think it is. better to admit thats how you feel instead of pretending its all ok.

My dd has just said "Mummy I want a brother or sister baby in your tummy". Feeling utterly utterly crap.

MLS - it is utter shite How about sharing a bottle of baileys and a mountain of chocolate with me ?

Jools that sounds like a brilliant idea.
