Hi girls, this is the new, combined thread. I figured that only those lucky enough to manage it this month would make it into spring, so I'm aiming for a big summer belly. Good luck to all of us!

Homemama, don't know St Ninians. Only thing I know about Kirky is that there's a lovely Indian restaurant and I did baby massage classes at the public hall (or whatever it is called).

When did you leave Glasgow?

homemama · 25/08/2005 13:12

I left as a teenager when my father's job relocated. Then I went back for a year before going to university. Then met DH and settled in the south. No family there now so don't go back often but still hold a great affection for the city.

Obviously

Do you think we have scared all the others away with all this talk about Glasgow?
It's very quiet here today!!

MandM · 25/08/2005 13:26

Hello everyone!

Dana, very at you living in such a beautiful place.

Good luck to everyone who's testing in the next few days. Fingers crossed for plenty of BFPs.

I'm off to the doctor's this afternoon to get booked in to the system and to discuss what we need to do next re testing etc.

It still doesn't seem real. I have to confess I bought another pack of two cheapie tests yesterday whilst I was off work with dd - just to make sure!!! They were both instant, big bright BFPs so I feel more reassured now! Didn't tell dh though and hid the pack in the bin, he'd think I'm mad!

Feeling fine. Still got tender boobs and a bit more tired than normal, but apart from running to the loo all the time the only other sign is quite a lot of stretchy type period pains in my lower stomach. I was a bit worried at first, but I've read that these are quite common, especially with a second baby and after a previous c-section. Phew!

Not back in the office until next Wednesday now, so good luck to everyone - I'll be thinking of you all.

Dana · 25/08/2005 13:32

Hi MandM, good to hear from you . Totally understand the extra sneeky tests. I would do the same - and I would probably also hide them from DH

Good luck at the doctors today. That will maybe make it a bit more real for you.

munz · 25/08/2005 13:38

MM - u're not alone I did 15 tests b4 I believed it incl one at 7 weeks, (I still want to test now!) lol.

homemama · 25/08/2005 13:39

Hi MandM, glad to hear all is going well!
Hope all goes well at the Docs. Keep in touch as it reminds us that it can happen.
I'm away til mon eve now so good luck to all those testing over the w/e.

Interesting usually come on by now, now at 29 days used to be 26 to 28 days. Not TTC till nov!

jersey · 26/08/2005 08:27

Forget previous message now 30 days!!!!!! Stomach cramping bad today, thought that had stopped since birth of DS.

Loubie37 · 26/08/2005 09:26

jersey, fingers crossed it's not AF then , when are you going to test?

Loubie37 · 26/08/2005 09:29

Congratulations puppy and MandM

Good luck to everytone else, this 2WW malarkey does my head in . I'm not due AF until next Wednesday which seems like absolute ages away. The getting up in the night for the loo only lasted 2 nights so I don't think it meant anything, so there's no signs either way as yet.

Oh well, c'est la vie

Artoo · 26/08/2005 09:42

puppy, I think a faint positive is still a positive - I do hope so! Let us know how the re-tests go

My best friend gave birth to a little girl on Wednesday, and dh and I went to visit last night. I feel really broody now!

Hugs,
Artoo.

jersey · 26/08/2005 09:48

Hi Loubie37 fingers crossed for you. AF came this morning, getting later each time! Never mind.

LilacLotus · 26/08/2005 13:47

i'm sorry about AF coming, jersey.

artoo, i saw the cutest newborn baby with her mum on the tram. DD and i sat there staring at her, cooing and aww'ing over this baby. i think the mum was a bit embarrassed

nothing new here. still got the sore breasts, need the loo every 20 minutes and am very weepy all the time. but i am sure my body is just playing tricks on me.

good luck to all those due and testing this weekend!

Cooweee · 26/08/2005 20:33

Hi Jersey

Sorry you AF came - well get on the wine tonight and practice some bd

I am due af tomorrow and I already feel so angry, I know I will come on as I have been feeling so moody the last few days like i could attack someone i am quite stressed at the moment and i am angry at my body too - i know we have only been trying a short time but i always thought that it would work as soon as i wanted it to.

anyway i am about to go and have a large glass of wine, take away, followed by lots of chocolate to me make myself feel better.

hope you are all feeling better and more positive than moody me!

puppy · 27/08/2005 20:09

good evening all, how are you all doing?

sorry your feeling down cooweee, hope you are feeling better soon.

Well af is due tomorrow, i keep having twinges like i am coming on, but not spotting or anything. I keep feeling nauseous in the morning but now starting to think that all my symptoms are all in my head. Bought a pk of 2 hpts tonight , should i test in the morning if no sign of af?

lovecloud · 27/08/2005 20:27

Well here it goes...........

"IM PREGNANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Just done a test after holdimg out the whole day. AF was due today and after all the BFP's lately and wasted tests, i was determined to wait until my af was one day late at least but I gave just before xfactor and then hardly watched any of it!!!

puppy · 27/08/2005 20:36

Congratulations lovecloud!!!!

LilacLotus · 27/08/2005 20:38

lovecloud · 27/08/2005 20:58
