<25 BFPs!! 12 births!! Welcome to the world turtle babies!>

Hello ladies

I posted this elsewhere but thought you might like a chuckle and hope you take it in the spirit it's intended....(not really man bashing )

Now...what if MEN got PREGNANT!

~ Maternity leave would last for two years....with full pay.

~There would be a cure for stretch marks.

~Natural childbirth would become obsolete.

~Morning sickness would rank as the nation's #1 health problem.

~All methods of birth control would be 100% effective.

~Children would be kept in the hospital until potty trained.

~Men would be eager to talk about commitment.

~They wouldn't think twins were so cute.

~Briefcases would be used as diaper bags.

~Paternity suits would be a fashion line of clothes.

~They'd stay in bed during the entire pregnancy.

~Restaurants would include ice cream and pickles as main entrees.

~Women would rule the world


It made me snigger

did u ever think when u started this thread, it would get so huge?

how are u feeling today? Even tho you don't feel pg, your symptoms are fantastic! I'm a teensey bit jealous!!

so far today, my cramps took a break thankfully, although I am prepared for them to return this evening if not 1st thing tomorrow. My head is still foggy tho, has been for a solid week now. and my ears feel stuffed up, almost like an ear infection, so much so that I cannot stand anything to be very loud lately. I wonder is my body getting tired of the prenatal vitamin and the B6? if i dont get a bfp next cycle I am going to come off them for a few months while i take a break. I have a sneaky suspicion it is behind my weight gain as well!

I truly never though it would get so huge no. I'm quite pleased that it did though. You are all such a lovely bunch of ladies/turtles/loons. In so far today, I feel fairly good. I am currently set down with a soup cup full of reheated frankensoup (it's SO yummy!) and some toasted french bread with a simple, homemade butter spread with garlic and rosemary. Mmmm... Oh and a bottle of water. I reheated some soup for the girls as well and when I asked if they would like some pepper, my youngest (3.5 years) said, "Oh yes ma'am, I would like quite a lot!"

I am so sorry you are feeling like poo. Good thing we are all virtual, I imagine that IRL we would all be quite loud chatting like this. I did not know pre-natals caused weight gain?! That's icky!

I'm going to test again tonight when I've saved up some strong wee. That evap yesterday has me fascinated.

Trinitymum, I have to say I am vert envious of your morning sickness! I'd give anything to have it.

Molly you have 3 girls right? Be honest, would a baby boy be the icing on the cake?!

Holly what's LO up to today?

My sister doesn't think she'll bring my nephew for a visit this week after all as they've only just got home from Dubai and he's a bit out of routine.

Talking of my sister and talking about when the time is right etc, well she is one person who rly wont be very impressed when I get pregnant. She is the sort of person who has always known her plan and has followed it and made it happen. Good for her, she lives a great life with her merchant banker husband in their £1.3mil Surrey house ... But that's just not me. My life isn't going to work ou like that. I'm far too emotional and left-brained to be so ordered and regimented. She'd expect me to have discarded OH's advances instantly bc he doesn't fill in her tick boxes of perfection. Its horrible to think my only sibling wont really be happy for me.

But just think how happy we'll be for you Sarachka

post the opk.......POST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think she is being quite mean actually... dangling that idea of posting an opk and then walking out on us.

 

[Mollykins]

Oh dear... I ate too much... or too fast.

 

[firstbaby25]

Agreed holly! Imagine how pleased we'll be for you... X

i've not heard that they do, just needed something else to blame for my weight gain!

 

[HollyMonkey]

Maybe she's shy (not likely by her big colourful posts but you never know)

Don't be afraid moominmumma, I demonstrate my discharge enough during O on this post

Sarachka, you asked what LO has been up to today...Little Pickle. Now she can stand up she has been 'rearranging' her room. Give me a mo and I'll send you a pic, I took one to show Daddy what she got up to while I was absorbed in my cross-stitch! And we went for a walk in the snow, very nice.

Gosh yes Moomin you asked earlier when you should BD and I was lost in profound reveries. Sorry Are you going for every other day? Or trusting to youth and vigour and doing every day? Let's see your opk then and we can put heads together to work out your optimum sexual timetable...now that is Romance, with a capital R!!!

[Mollykins]

I'm such a PMA downer today! I do want want WANT to be pregnant I just don't FEEL pregnant. Everything can be explained away by something else... perhaps I'm just petrified of getting my hopes up?? Hmm... I bet chocolate would help... Ooo! I have m&ms (my DDs call them "beans")
