Oh Squirrel! Hope you are feeling alright and had a fantastic sunday despite Ms. Buzz Kill (AF). Love your new avatar - and the pizza eating smiley! That is me every saturday night - I made home made pizza for DH and myself and eat half of it!

Thank you, yes, I'm doing amazingly well! I don't really know why, but I'm not complaining!

I did have a nice Sunday. I had to work for about 5 hours this morning, but I like the ladies I had to work with so we actually had a lot of fun. Then I took my dog for a walk. Also I just got a new flat screen tv for over my treadmill. This way I can watch all my silly tv shows while I work out!

So if I"m not going to be pregnant, at least I'll be skinny! And when I am pregnant, then I'll have more motivation to stay healthy!

Besides, I keep reminding myself how nice it would be to have a Spring baby. I'd be able to go out for walks and enjoy the beautiful Spring weather, not yucky freezing winter! Who wants that?!!

Hope everyone had a great weekend, and has a good week!

I want to give you a million hugs SquirrelGirl . And not only because AF came but for your awesome attitude!! Love you already girl . I know that will have no choice but to drop in your basket this cycle

Lucky sweetie, I hope your ticker is wrong......

As for me, I just wish this week would roll by already! Some boob pain fed my symptom spotting yesterday , but woke up today feeling like I'm just kidding myself . Had the all too familiar sore/stabbing AF like cramp this morning....but she's not due till Friday or Saturday. It felt too sore to be implantation or anything.....I don't know. I guess I'll just keep symptom spotting till....well....all is revealed!

Just a little extra though. Okay, I live in Lagos and driving here can only be likened to driving in Italy! M.e.n.t.a.l drivers!!! So, I admit I suffer from a bit of road rage now and then . But golly, I had road rage on Saturday like never before! I was screaming and shouting and gesturing so much that I was like YEEEESH, WHO IS THIS WOMAN . I guess my hormones have gone a little gaga!!

 

[LuckyD]

Yum, Jaimie - home made pizza! We made that the other day too - sooooo good!

Squirrel, you rock lady. Glad you had a nice Sunday, and yay for a flat-screen TV while you work out! That's motivation!

Isi - yes, ignore my ticker! AF has not arrived as of yet...I know, the symptom spotting is so frustrating huh? At the end of the day, there isn't much we can do but wait...grrrr. Plus my body likes to throw in a few confusing symptoms each month for good measure, so THAT'S always fun. Funny about the road rage! Hope the angry hormones are a good sign!! xxx

Morning Ladies!

Well I'm very excited today as I've got 3 days off work, and the best bit is that I don't have anything planned - Yippeee!!!

Waitng4Baby#1 - Ohhh you're a day behind me in your cycle, you must be gearing up for a good lot of. Swim spermy swim !!

Dalilah - 2nd of June is a lucky day, it's my birthday!

Isi Buttercup - Am keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Fingers crossed for you!

 

[LuckyD]

ohhh, I see it's late Lucky, that's exciting!! Is she usually late?

Fingers crossed for you!

Thanks love! AF has been super regular the last few months, but can vary by a couple of days. Plus I O'd two days later this month - so if my LP is the same AF may not be due until tomorrow...we shall see! I think I'll take my ticker down for the meantime - it's confusing!

Yay for three days off with no plans! Enjoy!

 

[Isi Buttercup]

Keeping FX for you Lucky . I see you don't want to test test, right? My strategy exactly! But if AF doesn't show by the end of the week, you probably will have to. Good luck hun!!!!

Thanks Springflower!!! Gosh, lucky you with 3 days off to just lounge! I wish I could take time off work now. How many dpo are you?

If AF doesn't show up tomorrow, I don't think I will be able to wait any longer! My will-power is already on the wane...I think I will be happy to give in after tomorrow xx

You are not too far off testing yourself!

 

[Isi Buttercup]

Aaaaargh, I have a phobia for the dreaded . Too many s kinda do that to you...lol! I intend to hold off for as long as I can. If no AF by my birthday (the 26th), I will test on the 27th (no way I'll be spoiling my 33rd birthday if it's bad news )

Good luck sweetie. I can't wait for your good news

[Ejay]

just popping in to let you know AF got me last night properly, I am not too upset as I was expecting it.

will catch up later xx

 

[Britt11]

hey girls, just wanted to stop by and let you know that i had my HSG this morning, I had zero pain with it I heard its only painful if your uterus goes into spasm, which mine did not.
Anyway both tubes are completely open and all is great, I am on board for the IUI in about a week!!

Hope your well and we see some more BFPs soon

 

[Isi Buttercup]

That's good news Britt! Congrats!!!

 

[mrskcbrown]

Hey 30something ladies

I havent been here in a while because my subscription was taken off.

Anywho praying for everyone. Hope this wait ends in a BFP for all of us. Im just waiting to O.

 

[Jaimie2Eyes]

Hi MrsKC! Nice to see you again! Hope that ov goes well and that you get loads of quality BDing in!

Ejay - I'm SO sorry I hope you able to maintain that stable vibe I'm getting from you. Stay strong!

LuckyD - I love your ambivalence about your late-ness. I've got everything crossed for you!

Happy Birthday Isi and Spring Flower! My step-mom's big day is June 3rd.

Brit11 - that is great news about your HSG. I hope the IUI does the trick for you!

 

[Springflower]

Hey Ladies

Wow I love being at home with no plans! Had a great day today went shopping and bought lots of lovely things! I've always been skinny but since getting married I've put on a stone and a half. I would have been pleased only it all went on my tummy. Sooo many ppl have thought I was pregnant or asked if I was. Anyway found lots of floaty summery tops to disguised my not baby bump so am very happy. Come summer I'm ready for you now!!

Hey Mrskc - Nice to see you! How'd you mean your subscription was taken off? Do we have to pay for this??! Am worried now....

Brit - Fabulous news on your HSG, so glad all was ok and it's wasn't too bad. I had mine last month and agree with you it was fine. I found smear tests worst!

Isi - Think tomorrow I'll be 1dpo, so on to the dreaded tww. This is the bit I hate the most. NEVER have any syptoms and just get crosser and crosser til AF arrives (Always on time as well). Once she's here I'm yeay onto the next month!! he he!

Hey Ejay - Sorry AF got you

Hey Jamie Thanks for the bday wishes!

Lucky - Am keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Ohhh there's lots of birthdays about at the mo, surely thats gotta be lucky for someone!!!
