Manny ~ The pic's of your LO are adorable! What a doll! I def see what you are seeing...I don't know how you'll be able to keep it from your DH either! Maybe you should ask him if he sees what you see? What a beautiful dilemma to be in!

Bazz ~ Your temps look great! Solid crosshairs and 8dpo! Let's throw St. Paddy's Dust your way https://www.4smileys.com/smileys/st-patricks-day-smileys/saint_patricks_day42.gif. (Do the gold coins count as dust?)

1983 ~ Hope you are feeling better!

:wave: Mrs!

 

[bazzb]

Ok thanks girls!

I acutely don't plan on testing
Kinda waiting out AF I feel crampy

 

[mannymoo]

Crampy is good!! Yes - sending the luck of the Irish your way!!!
Angel how are you feeling Hun?

 

[bazzb]

Thx!!

Maybe test around the 23 if she does t show up

 

[bazzb]

Hope everyone had a good weekend

 

[mannymoo]

How is the chart bazz? Can you share another pic?

 

[bazzb]

Sure can

 

[mannymoo]

OMW!!! Looking excellent Bazz. Are you still not testing yet? That is VERY patient of you. I would be peeing on a stick as I typed!!! Getting super-excited for another BFP on this thread!

 

[bazzb]

Nope I have not tested!!
Bfn upsets me too much!!

Only a another 5-6 days and ill test lol

 

[A1983]

Ahhh it looks very good Bazz! Here's to a healthy cycle and getting them back on track at least...or of course a bfp! I think you're fab not to test-very strong of you-you need to keep chilled x

 

[A1983]

Manny what are you doing re baby clothes? As you're team yellow (or have been!) have you just got clothes in neutral colours? Only im actually getting a bit annoyed with not being able to get all these clothes im seeing because they are either boy or girl...and so far have 2 baby grows-that's it! X

 

[bazzb]

Thanks 83 I am surprisingly super chill!

 

[A1983]

That's good Bazz

I had a nice weekend just gone- walked a lot too-well I say a lot-45 mins?! Ha ha!! I was in the Lake District with my siblings and oh and we walked for a while on the way to find a waterfall...but I turned back with oh after 25 mins as was exhausted, freezing and felt heavy...plus im a lazy monkey! Pop me out on a sunny walk and ill be fine...with lots of rest breaks But otherwise ill stick to my 30 min gym sessions! Was so beautiful there though-our cottage looked right onto the mountains and we had sunshine, mist, heavy snow-a range of weathers providing different views! Ha ha and even very well timed fireworks just after a suprise birthday cake and present giving! Of course the fireworks werent for me!

Ohh one thing that really annoyed me in Paris last weekend-I dont know how you ladies feel about alcohol during pregnancy but I personally haven't had any despite numerous ppl telling me the odd glass is fine-anyway on my birthday night I plucked up the courage to have half a beer in a Thai restaurant....on bringing it to the table the waiter said 'ohh you drink beer?' To which I replied 'yes' (not that it's any if your business)..and he said 'ohh, be careful!' and walked off..I would normally have said something but I was too stunned-felt like id just been told I was a bad mother and I literally tingled all over with rage! I couldn't drink it all after that-felt too guilty! But what I did have was nice (and calmed me down a bit ha ha!)

Bazz! Fx'd for Friday!

1983 ~ Why do people judge? My girlfriend had the occasional glass of wine and her daughter was born big and healthy. I see nothing wrong with your choice...happy belated birthday

:wave: Manny and Mrs.

AFM ~ MS is limited to nights now. I went yesterday for a monthly visit and to start my progesterone injections. I had another ultrasound while there and he is looking on target. It was nice to watch him kick and confirm what I "thought" quickening was I'm curious if the progesterone is causing me to be hormonal today or if its just par for course at this stage. I'm crying at the silliest things!

Hope you all are having a nice week. xoxo

 

[bazzb]

Thanks angel

Glad the ms is lightening up a bit at least! And lovely you got to see bubs again

 

[mannymoo]

Hi Ladies - hope everyone is well? Tomorrow is a bank holiday in SA so today is like Friday - wooooohoooo!

A1983 - yes, we're just buying neutral clothes. TBH, I didn't really want a whole bunch of clothes at the beginning because they go through them so quickly. So I have about 10 one-sies that people have given us and probably won't get any more until we know if its a boy or girl. At least there are some nice neutral outfits out there but the girly clothes are by far the cutest! Happy Birthday for last week!

It also irritates me when people judge others about drinking. If you're having a bottle of wine a night then maybe. But a glass now and then really isn't a big deal. I've been a bit off drinking this pregnancy but I have had the odd spritzer. Saying that, at our ante-natal class on Monday, the midwife said that new studies have shown that some babies can develop FAS where the mother has only had 1 or 2 drinks the whole pregnancy - that did freak me out a little! But I think it is quite rare. She is, however, a big advocate of drinking (a small amount) when breastfeeding, which made me smile!

Angel - so glad all is well and you got another look at your little one this week. Can't believe you still have MS. You poor thing. Hope it goes soon. Progesterone is evil stuff. It completely messes me up, makes me totally moody, emotional, road-rage-full, hungry, hot etc etc.... So glad that I have been able to stop the pills once again. Hopefully I won't need them again this pregnancy. Why are they giving you shots?

Bazz - I keep trying to chart stalk you but no link? 13dpo and how are you feeling? When is testing day? Friday? Will be keeping everything crossed for you!

Hi to everyone else.

[bazzb]

Sorry I didn't link it to my signature
Ill post you a screen shot

Awesome tomorrow is a bank holiday I'm jealous

 

[bazzb]

Ladies how accurate are opk for detecting hcg at 13 dpo
I had one left and didn't want to wastemy frer so i used my opk
Only a faint line on it which is negative for opk
But after I used it in thinking its probably too early for it to work even if I was

 

[mannymoo]

I wouldn't rely on it Bazz. I get semi-positive OPKs all month around. The only way to really tell with an OPK is if it gets darker over time. But I think you should rather just do your FRER tomorrow morning with FMU. The chart is looking great and the fact that you will be 14dpo tomorrow is quite safe. Very excited to hear how it goes. Please keep us posted!

 

[bazzb]

Ok thx manny

I didn't think they r that reliable this early anyways!
I may test tomorrow or Friday unless my temp drops
