To WIIT to whoohoo! 5th thread

[100years]

Well what happens now?

Old thread

A girl???? I'm not having an actual real life baby you know ha ha ha...

Making rock sounds interesting Strawberry! What did yours say in the middle in the end? How on earth do they make it? Caravanning sounds like fun. Hope the weather picks up!

100years let's hope you get whisked in for an early scan so you don't have to wait too long. I guess 10 days is probably doable by comparison!

Ok so I used my boots advantage points to buy a ridiculously overpriced even with £2 off clearblue digital test! Shit. What if it doesn't show? There are 2 tests in the box but meh. What if the 5 tests I've got are fakes? What if, what of? Feck I've bought 12 bloody tests altogether. I swear if CBD is positive I'll not use all 12. Nervous here. Oh and don't expect it tomorrow, I've got a ridiculous start in the morning and don't want to test pre the thing I'm doing, though I might do a pound shop cheapie!

Do one now and one tomorrow!!

By the way, the elephant handler asked me to ask you whether you need a parade of elephants every time you test, or just, say, every tenth or fifteenth test?

I'll let the elephants parade one last time next week I know how much they love it.

I'm NOT testing today!

If I test positive next weekend they will get to do the mother of all parades. Some of them will even be jetted off to the moon to parade around up there while it orbits the earth and then be parachuted back down in a shower of ticker tape to join the rest of the triumphant parade, which will go on and on without a break until all the elephants collapse from exhaustion.

4DPO.... they are wheeling the elephant shuttle out to the launch pad.

Well it's 10.30am and DH is still snoring away like a good 'un. He didn't even go out boozing last night so I guess his body must just be in its default Saturday morning snooze mode!

I'm waiting for him to wake up so I can force him to come with me to the Trafford Centre to watch me try on twenty dresses and then buy the first one! DH is best man at a wedding in three weeks time and I have absolutely nothing (new) to wear.

How is everyone? Strawberry how was your night in the caravan full of children?! Lookathergo hope the mysterious thing you are doing that you don't want to test before goes well!

Hope your shopping trip goes well Harpie wasn't really a mysterious thing, just seeing friends after a race and the looking at car seats, but I didn't want a CBD to mess up my head by doing one of its unreliable things and not working. Which would have probably made me feel a bit

We've been to mk today and checked out rear facing next stage car seats and we can get one so E will be extended rear facing

Hi, I'm just waiting for OH to pay before we get the caravan packed up and we can 'get gone'. It's been good-LWH we only had our own LO in the 'van with us and that was enough! Sharp little toenails digging into your bum in the middle of the night is not the most restful thing ever :)

6 days to go before the next POAS elephant extravaganza! Can't wait! Next time you are at the TC give me a shout if you fancy a coffee LWH :)

I am cream crackered! DDs social life is taking it's toll!

Lookathergo I'm dreading the next stage car seat shopping for DD & hoping that she stays below 15kg a leeeeetle bit longer!! I find it really stressful! :( (Dunno why, think I get a bit overwhelmed) DD has been forward facing since 12months (even though she wasn't quite big enough) she used to scream and scream and scream facing backwards & it was so distracting that in the end I figured it was safer for her to face forwards & not have me crash the car!

Harpie did you find anything lovely to wear? :o

Strawberry glad you had a lovely time away, ouch to sharp toenails!!

Have come home this afternnon to find that the garden has been hacked away at & now the TV works again! Amazing how motivating the lack of Sky Sports is!!

Lookathergo you have spoilt all the intrigue! Are you POAS again today then, now you have got car seat research out of the way?!

Bebe lol you will have to put her on a strict diet so that you can avoid the stress! No more cupcakes for you, mini person!

Strawberry my trip to the TC with DH turned into a trip to Meadowhall with my mum, but I did find a rather lovely dress. Just got to sort out accessories now - but there's plenty of time so I thought it could wait until after payday!

Well I'm 5dpo today, so still a couple of days short of implantation if it's going to happen. It seems completely crazy that you can have a fertilised egg dividing inside you that will grow into a baby - and yet feel no symptoms whatsoever! I'm now so glad I did all the pre-TTC charting, even though even I thought it was a bit mad at the time. I woke up this morning to a massive second temp rise - but was soon able to ascertain that it was completely normal for me at this dpo. Bother!

CBD states "pregnant 2-3" I think that's what I expected so a very possible holiday baby lol

I'm really pleased to hear it it is absolutely lovely news for all of you. E will love having a little sister or brother and it will be so much fun to see them together. Have you told anyone else in RL?

That's fantastic news Lookathergo. So you'll have 18 months between them, roughly? That's a nice gap I think.

Harpie watching the DsPO ticking by is like slow water torture, no? Glad the elephants are well primed.

My body is playing silly buggers over here - CD37 and no sign of AF - I normally get achy boobs s few days before. My normal is between 29-33 days so I've begun to get quite distracted by it! We werent TTC this cylce but did go back to UPS on about CD25 after OV should have been and gone. But POAS this a.m and bfn, so probs just an anovulatory cycle?!

No not yet Harpie, but I have a friend I will probably tell tomorrow, she's a new friend who goes to the baby group I go to, but it will be nice to tell someone. And I'm going out for drinks with the other mums in 2 weeks and so I either have to have a great not drinking excuse or I'll end up letting slip. I've not decided. Having said that, if I get sick again,it'll be bloody obvious!

Yeah roughly, though might be more like 17 months, but that's by the by really. :) oh gosh no AF at cd37 that must he torture not knowing what's going on. Maybe just maybe this month will be really lucky for the three of us, and bebe will get a MURCOM :)

No signs of MURCOM for me. Although DD did burst into tears on Friday when she asked DH if she can have a baby sister & he said 'No, they are too expensive!' :( #breakingmyheart

Quod - day 37!! I'd be going loopy by now!

Harpie, tell us more about this dress?! :o

Well having tested now in normal ironic fashion AF looks imminent as the normal spotting has finally started! A Bfp right now would be the worst possible timing tbh, I'm working flat out for the next 6 weeks and DP is away most of that time too so not at all ideal.

I want to see the dress please?

Hi All!!

Trying to catch up on the news whilst feeding. I can't believe how long it's been since I was last on here. It looks as though there is a lot I've missed!!!

Would you believe that Sassi is almost 15 weeks old now?!? The last 3.5 months have flown by and I'm not entirely sure where the weeks have gone!!

It's been an eventful start! She was diagnosed with reflux at 3 weeks and then Developmental Hip Dysplasia at 6 weeks. After 8 weeks in a harness she came out of it last Friday and her hips are now normal. A huge relief as if it didn't work we were looking at surgery and a fixed cast for 3/6 months.

I think that the harness was pretty uncomfortable for her as since she's been out if it she's been a much happier baby (that and the fact we had a dreadful 12 week growth spurt!!!) she's VERY active and doesn't really do daytime naps if she can avoid them!! She loves beating the crap out of the toys on her play gym and has learn to roll front to back and back to front (although the latter requires a bit of practice!!)

Sorry for the self indulgent post. Can I have a summary of everybody's WIIT updates please as, thanks to sleep deprivation, my brain can't digest all the posts I've missed!!

Quod it goes SO slowly!!! And how on earth could I be pg but feel nothing?? That's completely crazy - I'm obviously not pg! All I can say is thank god I'm not on cd37 with a bfn wondering what on earth is going on! Poor old you! How sure are you about when you OV? All things considered lets hope AF gets herself settled in soon.

Lookathergo are you the first in your mums group to have DC2, or are there others? I can imagine you must feel desperate to tell people. It's a really long wait to 13 weeks. I was dying to tell my mum yesterday that we are finally TTC but I managed to bite my tongue and we just chatted about everyone else who's recently popped out babies or just about to!

Bebe we've all got all our fingers and toes crossed for a MURCOM. Do you think it's a positive sign that he's seeing it as a financial issue, as in there might be a possibility that he will change his stance if business starts to pick up? Poor DD she must be confused about how it all works.

SPR fancy seeing you here! How is it all going? Are you run off your feet? Am I going to rue the day we DTD?! Can you believe we are on round two of the babies?! Unbelievable!

Have tried to find a pic of the dress online but couldn't. It's black with white flowers, strapless with a big full skirt to the knee. I've got my eye on some red LK Bennett shoes to wear with it.

Oops xposted there. Sounds like you have been kept very busy! Sorry to hear it hasn't all been plain sailing but good that everything is sorted out!

My WIIT update: DTD this month and now climbing the walls at 5DPO.
