Anyone TTC#2 and wanting to chat

[Stef]

Ugh had an awful thought today that my scan tomorrow might be another internal. Please no!!!

I have no idea what effects green tea would have on TTC.

Sarah what time do you finish work?? Chris has arranged for his friend to come over today and i really cant be arsed. Ive tidied downstairs, so im going to go and have a nice relaxing soak in the bath (and remember to lock the door so i dont have Olivia climbing in with me)

Olivia is much much better today. Causing mischief as usual. No such thing as a peaceful day. lol

my goodness you girlies can chat

Just thought I would pop in and say hi, wasn't on yesterday as I had planned a small surprise party for my hubby....looked more terrified when everyone jumped out. We are currently looking into a rent to buy property. I am excited as we will decorate if we get it. We have never decorated before...never seen the point as we have never stayed anywhere for longer than 18 months. I really want to do Oliver a big boy room when we leave, really excited about it, Stef you have inspired me going to look at the Next sets!!! Althuogh he does have everything, just doesn't match. He has a double bed (pine), chest of drawers (white) Dr Who Canvas wardrobe, a bed settee and an ottemen, just got rid of his book case as was too much going on. His room is massive, hoping next one will be smaller, so have an excuse to get him new things. Also excited about decorating our new kitchen. I am getting a ewing machine for my birthday in march and am going to make tea towel and aprons and placemats, etc....I really love the 1950s style in the kitchen and love Cath kidson (but will be so much cheaper to make it myself).

Kerri I was under the impression that green tea was good, but can't remember why, lol

 

[x-TyMa-x]

well i read its great for loads of things, burning fat is a big one, preventing cancer etc ....great for bones, nails etc , basically everything ....apart from TTC it seems

ive just read that because it has cafffine, thats bad.... and it can slow down folic acid which is obvs important in pregnancy, caffiene can cause low birth weight and birth defects

maybe best not drink anymore till after the baby is born x

 

[Stef]

I love some Cath Kidston stuff too but hubby isnt so keen, They do a gorgeous kids bag in a pony print which i wanted the material to make Olivia a few things but they dont bloody sell that print.

Wow his room must be big to fit all that in, our room are like shoe boxes.

Xx

 

[MrsLQ]

He has the biggest room in the house, could easily be made into 2 smaller bedroom...he has all that and room to play!!! I think I am going to find some similar prints..

awww i love kath kidson my friend was making bags with kath kidson like materials - they were lush but the material is quite expensive have a look about for a good price hun

oh er Kerri - well I still drink tea etc so maybe google how much caffiene is in Green T - compared to normal T? Maybe you could start taking folic acid to up it iykwim! Asda baby event starts tomorrow and they have it on offer - £2 for pregnacare?

 

[x-TyMa-x]

ive started my folic acid today, 1 a day x
i did it with tyler too untill my doc appointment and they gave me some x

Hi everyone,

Looks like I've got a lot to catch up on!

Kerri - I drink one cup of green tea a day because apparently it can help with actually conceiving but it can also affect how well the folic acid is absorbed so basically my doctor said to make sure I don't drink the tea to close to when I take my folic acid.. He said 1 or 2 cups a day won't do me any harm.

Stef - I had a scan at 7 + 5 with Sam and that was an external one so you might be ok. You could see his little heart beating and everything.

MrsLQ - hope your new job is going well

Sarah - hope the afternoon is less boring for you

I've managed to get a doctors appointment for Fri so will hopefully get things sorted then x

 

[sjbno1]

ohh good luck vicki i hope he can refer you to get some answers - sorry if you answered this already but how were your cycles before Sam?

Stef - hopefully its external hun

 

[Sambles]

ohh good luck vicki i hope he can refer you to get some answers - sorry if you answered this already but how were your cycles before Sam?

Stef - hopefully its external hun

My cycles have always been crazy, every 50 -90 days. I took agnus castus when TTC Sam and that regulated them to 35 days x

 

[Stef]

Helloooooooooooooooooooooo!!

Vicky im excited about your appointment, I hope it all goes well and keep me posted pleaaase!!

I hope this scan isnt internal but we shall see... First tri boards arent great at the moment, so many sad/horror stories that i keep worrying myself stupid, i keep saying ill only look at the good ones but i cant help go into others and offer the ladies some friendly advice or encouragement.

Hope everything is good tomorrow, wonder if i may have even caught up a little??

Im started to feel like a house end all I want to do is eat eat eat. Help!!

OBEM at 9pm! How damned exciting every one.

[sjbno1]

evening all,

well work was boring between 11 - 2pm the afternoon really dragged then picked up again anyway no work tomorrow and only 2 more days left this week love 3 day weeks

Stef - I have gone on that part of the forum so know what you mean, think i'll stick in my little safe bubble here

I doubt i'll watch OBEM as Sam is home, he doesnt like it so will try and watch it tomorrow instead

 

[Sambles]

Evening Stef :wave:

Make sure you drink plenty of fluid before your scan so that way you shouldn't have an internal. Although when I had mine I drank way too much and was doubled up in pain by the time I got there and ended up crying because I thought I was going to wet myself

I can't wait for OBEM. Only half hour to go

 

[x-TyMa-x]

OOO cant wait!! ....think theres a water birth tonite

 

[Sambles]
