Okay.. I wanted my old ticker back.

 

[Mollykins]

Oh and I will be 11 dpo on Christmas day. What do you ladies think?

Hey ladies....tell me what you think of this...

Tonight, I went to the shops to get a few final bits of Christmas shopping. I was in a clothes shop (NEXT for those in the UK) and as is often the case, they have the men's section upstairs. There is an escalator to take you up but you have to come back down the stairs. Anyway (there is a point) as I made my way back down the stairs (of which there were a couple of dozen) I saw a man holding onto the handrail going down the stairs sideways, slowly and one by one. He was obviously physically challenged in some way, so without even thinking, as I drew level with him I simply said (hello, can you manage or can I help?) and that is word for word. Well, if looks could kill...."If I needed help I'd ask for it - don't be so f***ing patronising!!" was what he spat at me I can assure you my tone was even and far from patronising....and I neither verbally or literally patted him on the head. I just don't get it....

I came home and told OH about it and he seemed baffled but said maybe the guy had a bad day? What do you ladies think? I felt quite upset which I know is silly but it really took me by surprise

was the new one just not up to par?

11 DPO is, IMHO, ample DPO's to get a solid BFP....I would definitely test, in fact I would test on Christmas eve but then you are much more sensible, and you know what's best

It is definitely one of those situations where you have take responsibility for yourself. You KNOW that you didn't do a single thing wrong so you need to let him take responsibility for his actions. However he reacted or felt was only in his control... it holds no bearing or reflection on you. Understand? Don't you dare allow someone else to make you feel horrid about doing a nice thing... it will only keep you from doing nice things for people who do deserve it.

I was a little wobbly chinned after it TBH, which is unlike me (must be hormones ) and I think I actually muttered an apology as I hastily left the shop....I was just so taken aback. Of course, I can think of millions of fabulous retorts NOW!

pee half-heartedly... 11dpo is still realtively early, but a good day for a bfp at the same time.

Hmmm, yes, maybe a more nonchalant pee will be in order
