hello all! had a poo weekend with ds being ill. couldn't get his temp down at all from 39.4! and was considering casualty on sunday, but then miraculously he was back to normal yesterday except for a nasty cold! i expect it is dds turn next! i feel like poo too cos i have caught his cold. what is the best remedy then for us pg women who have colds?
i think before i had ds i had had about 3 colds in my life ever! i was a picture of health, never got ill! since being pg first time i have had about seven thousand million billion colds! now i am never well! anyone else find that?

fettle - where do you live again? i would say to see a McTimoney chiropractor (which is what i am), but its VERY important to get a good one who knows about SPD. i have a directory with everyones names and i could possibly recommend someone good. let me know if you want me to and i could email you the details.

mrs - i agree with fettle (don't i always!?) about your cycle. what crap software! i didn't ov till day 34 this cycle (can i still call it a cylcle?) so dont stop the shagging yet!

one of my friends had a mc on sunday. its very sad, she was 9 weeks. i feel terrible for her, and really bad that everytime she looks at me she will remember her loss. its so tough for some people isn't it.

ok..............i have taken a leaf out of mrs' book and posted some photos on my profile. i am only keeping them on for today though, cos it makes me feel weird leaving pics of my kids on the internet! i was going to post one of me too, but MN wouldn't let me (must be a sign!). i think the file was too big or something, but its probably best you don't know what i look like!

greedyforbabies · 27/03/2007 14:16

its NICE going on hols when you are big and fat bodders! it means DP gets to wait on you and look after your dd and you get to chill out in the sun! GO FOR IT!

Bodkin · 27/03/2007 14:25

CUTE KIDS Greedy! I knew they would be though. Now I am trying to imagine what you look like based on your kids. Are you redhead too? I'm off to have a nose at MrsMc's pics now. I had a dream that I went to university with her the other night. It's weird when virtual chums start turning up in your dreams!

Bodkin · 27/03/2007 14:28

Drat, I can't find them. Where are they Greedy?

greedyforbabies · 27/03/2007 14:37

im blonde not red. we are not quite sure where the red comes from!!!! i do wonder if this one will be a redhead too?

greedyforbabies · 27/03/2007 14:42

i saw mrs' photos when i was catching up from the last few days. must have been on the temp buddies thread, in conception i think. she doesn't look like i imagined!

greedyforbabies · 27/03/2007 14:43

just looked at your profile again bodders and got all excited when i saw you had some photos! HUH! you tease!

greedyforbabies · 27/03/2007 14:44

just look further down this thread for mrs' pics bods!

MrsMcEasterBunny · 27/03/2007 14:52

Hello Choosterfluffychick (? ) I can tell you exactly, its 13 weeks since New Year I know it?ll just take some time, I got a BFP and the software never predicted that did it?! Looking forward to seeing you very soon! Did we decide where we were going? If so, I?ve forgotten

BodkinBonnet (? ) thank you, I do feel like I am hunting for eggs at the mo, have to say! It must have been awful for your friend to go through all that when the remedy was simple Weather is freezing here, I won?t be doing any gardening for a while (apart from indoors ) can?t wait for the heat of the sun Have you discovered cobra 0% alcohol beers yet? They taste so good! Honestly!

Ah KitKatJumboegg (he he he) that was nice of that lady, bet that?s the first and last offer though, people are so mean out there (why can?t they all be like MNetters!) Thanks for my special hello!

Firststar Firsteaster ? (bit lame ) thank you, I know you are right! I?ve done everything possible to tempt fate to give me a BFP soon, I?ve stocked up on peanut butter, I?ve bought £50 worth of pre seed, OPKs and pregnancy tests plus months and months worth of EPO and Flaxseed oil capsules, I?m going to a Spa Hen night on 28/4, I?ve rekindled my love affair with wine (but am being a little shy this time round!) and with sushi and to top it off, I have just bought a dress for a wedding on 19/5 and if there is a single additional inch on me, especially round my boobs, I won?t be able to wear it? tempting enough for fate do you think? Or will he wait until I?ve booked my flights to the BVI for April 2008! I suspect so! How are you?

Greedyateeveryoneseggs ! Hello you! So glad to hear DS is feeling better, that was scary! Sorry to hear you now have a cold lots of freshly squeezed orange juice for you. Your immune system does go down when you are pg so that it doesn?t fight with the baby; you?d think nature would find a way to stop you from getting sick though! Yup, you can still call yours a cycle I reckon! Don?t worry; DH is keeping his side of the bargain So sorry to hear about your friend, I do feel for her. She won?t think that when she looks at you. When I think of all my pg friends (though they are all avoiding me ) my desire for everything to be ok with them is so strong it?s almost scary, guess I don?t want anyone I care about to feel this way. OOOOh photos! Going to have a peek, did you like my furry babies? Ready said she thinks DH looks like Will Carling please say its not so!
?. Had a look, Greedy, they are gorgeous, they look quite alike, do they look like you or DH? I LOVE the colour of your DDs hair; it?s like copper in the sun!

Hello CremeFettleandminicremefettle, hello Bunnymad?. Oh goodness, hello everyone, my creativity, poor as it was, is running dry! Feel like Sawyer from Lost calling you all names (Greedy ? he?s still the best on the box isn?t he?!)

Question: why do I have sore boobs today and yesterday? I thought they began to hurt only after OV because of rising progesterone levels, what do you think? What could be causing that now? Thank you!

Chooster · 27/03/2007 14:53

hee hee - love your photo Bodders!!! You and DP dont seem very natural in the photo though

Very cute kids Greedy! The one of them at xmas is so gorgeous. Like Bodkin, I'm wondering what you look like? I kind of have mental images of you all - can you imagine if we all ever met? - And what would we call each other? I can't imagine you all being anything other than your nicknames. At some point we may be brave enough to share actual first names - I mean we have talked about discharge, bleeding, poo, sex etc... I must get round to doing my profile. Like you Greedy it does a little wierd having pictures of our kids on the internet but I'll pop one of DS on there for a while.

I also feel like I've been ill a huge amount more since having kids. I seem to go from one cold to another without a break... Glad your DS is better though now Greedy! Hope DD manages to skip it

MrsMcEasterBunny · 27/03/2007 14:55

Crossed posts, sorry!

Bodkin ? were you at Edinburgh by any chance?! For some reason, you have to click on ?MrsMcJnr? not on my Easter name to see the photos, don?t ask me why!

Greedy ? how did you imagine me? Slimmer? prettier?

MrsMcEasterBunny · 27/03/2007 14:57

Love your's and DH's hairstyles Bodders

Chooster · 27/03/2007 15:01

Love all our names MrsMc!!! You are on top form today... Mmm, strange about achy boobs, not quite sure what that could be? Looks like you are well and truly stocked up for all you need in the world of TTC - Fingers crossed you'll need to store most of it away when you get your BFP

I dont think we eventually agreed on anywhere to meet but someone is threatening to put a meeting in my diary from 1pm tomorrow I'm keeping my head down but I may need to re-arrange .

Chooster · 27/03/2007 15:02

You are slim and gorgeous Mrsmc!!!!

Chooster · 27/03/2007 15:03

And, no, I dont think DP looks like Will Carling...

wow! i see one patient and i miss so much!
(what a weird patient, by the way! but thats another story!)

mrs - i thought you would be short, dark and really curvy............. you led me to believe you were a bit porky!....... your self esteem must be at a similar level to mine!..........you look lovely! i find it wierd that we all try and imagine what each other look like!
i KNOW that bodders and babymad are both really slim, but apart from that i haven't got a clue.

chooster, not sure what to think about you! i bet you are quite sophisticated though!

fettle - i know you are another tall girl like myself!

kitkat - HHHHHHHhmmmmmmm! not sure!

oh i give up! i tried to predict what ready looked like once ages ago and got it completely wrong!!!

if i describe myself it sounds really good! but then somehow when you see me, its not quite so good as it sounds!

greedyforbabies · 27/03/2007 16:12

mrs - do you watch eastenders? do you like sean? i think its the stubble and bad boy thing that gets me! YUM! shame my dh can't grow a beard yet! maybe when he grows up!

KitKat30 · 27/03/2007 16:21

I'm like a mystery...

Ummm.... short, dark, curvy, big boobs. Not that much of a mystery then.
