angel i think jungle is nice. it does cover both genders so you wont have to redecorate anytime soon. i love that you have already planned having the second. so that means you wont be leaving a long age gap which i think is great because when they closer in age they are more close.

abe lets hope things happen this month so no need for hsg but if you have to do it, it would be good for them to give you a good clean up before baby gets to be all in that space

Angel- a jungle theme would be nice. And so long as you keep it neutral colours I don't think you'd have to add bows or anything! Our nursery is half set up already and were not even pregnant! DH decided he wanted owls in there, so we've got very gender neutral grays, yellows, light Browns and blues in there with owls on the blankets, mobile and lamp. The baby even already has owl toys! If you're crazy for starting to set up your nursery so soon then DH and I must be insane!

Whimsical- we can only hope we won't need the HSG or IVF. Pretty sure the saline water they used for the sono cleaned me right out- it sure felt like it!

Whimsical - yeah I'll be 31 when this baby comes and we don't want to wait too long. I don't want to be over 35 since I'm already high risk I don't want to be more high risk! lol

Abe - glad I'm not the only one!! We got a corner desk yesterday to put into our bedroom so we can start moving some of our office into the bedroom. We have a friend living with us and he'll be moving into what is now our office and his room will become the nursery. I think we'll stay moving stuff around in the next couple weeks so we can start putting the stuff we are getting into the nursery. Right now it's all over the house

 

[Whimsical88]

thats just lovely... i hope the next pregnancy happens fast and no waiting and trying.

make sure you not doing ANY heavy lifting.

 

[Angel5000]

I'm making DH do the heavy lifting. lol.

Hey everyone. actually posted this to the wrong thread initially! Whoops! I'll blame the pregnancy brain. Anyway....things have been pretty crazy around here so I've been really tied up with other things. Had a nice little beach trip, only to come home to the city replacing our lead water main line (didn't even know we had lead water pipes still), which lead to a series of events that triggered a flood in our basement and everything's just a mess.

Soo lots to catch up on.

Sheece: I'll try to see if I can copy my charts so you can compare. How are things going so far? I might have missed some posts so forgive me if you've already updated.

Abe: Great news! When are you going to be able to get started with IVF

Angel: Congrats on being all finished up for the summer! So awesome about your ultrasound! I'm jealous. I can't wait till I get to finally have one. The jungle theme sounds cute! I just found a jungle themed quilt the other day that I almost bought because it was both adorable and gender neutral. I'll see if I can find it for you if you're interested. It was kinda pricey though

AFM: Most of my stress has been flood related, nothing major on the pregnancy front. Largely asymptomatic--keep waiting for some MS to kick in but hasn't happened yet. I tire out early in the evening but have been sleeping well so that's good. I've also had some relief from the dreaded constipation--mucinex twice a day and a colase when that wasn't working seems to have helped.
The only weird little thing that happened over the past day is that I've been getting very very scant brown discharge. It's not like spotting, it's more like white, sticky CM except it's brown. And it's just the tiniest amount. like a couple drops that it. No cramping or anything, so I've been told not to worry about it. It's been on and off for about 36 hours though so I'm monitoring to see if there's any changes. I still don't have my first OB appointment until July 11th and time seems to be creeping by until that appointment. I'll be 9 weeks by then which seems crazy late for a first appointment, but I guess with the holiday the week before, that's the soonest they had. Siiigh.

 

[broodymrs]

We don't have our first appointments until 8 weeks here. Seems a long time to wait but hopefully it'll go quick for you.

We had owls a vaguely woodland theme for dyl. Not even considered what we'd have for no 2. Tbh we're going to struggle for space this time around!

 

[abennion]

If everything goes as planned and we don't have any hiccups Etis, we should be on to IVF in August or September.

 

[broodymrs]

Not long to wait Abe! Fx it happens naturally before then though 😊

 

[Sheece]

Hey girls! I've been awol, ive been sick the last week rah! Just when I need my temps to be consistant, I've had no sleep so they are all whacky.

I *think* I ovulated on CD 15 but my temps show a dip after that. Hoping that it is just a case of inaccurate temps! My temp did go up again today though, so if I ovulated yesterday my bases are still covered at least.

Angel - I love the jungle theme idea! Too cute And I'm in a similar boat to you with age - I'm 33 next month (urgh) and we want two kids, so the big 35 number is in the back of my mind all the time!

Abe - I concur with broody - not long to wait for IVF but I have everything crossed it happens for you before then

Etis - bad news on the basement flood! Do the city pay for that as they've caused it?? I hope so ! Try not to worry too much about the spotting, as you said, its a tiny amount and its brown so its really nothing to worry about, but if you can't get it out of your mind, surely your doctor would get you in sooner just to check it all out? Might be worth a shot to ease your mind at least x

Whimsy - where are you up to ?

 

[Whimsical88]

Hi ladies, sorry been in a very poor reception area.went to visit my parents so dont use net much as too slow.

Etis with all the house cleaning, before you know it, it will be July.

[broodymrs]

In shock. Got my today at 10dpo

 

[abennion]

Congrats broody!

 

[Angel5000]

Congrats Broody!! Pics Pics Pic!

 

[broodymrs]

Hopefully you can make it out! It is very definitely there. Dh can see it and he never sees lines! I'd given up hope of it happening to be honest and I don't know how it will turn out so for now I'm just enjoying the moment.

 

[Angel5000]

I can see it just barely! I can't tell if it's pink or more grayish but that's also possibly my computer screen. I'm so excited for you!!! Are you going to take more tests? (because I love line porn and can't help it! )

 

[broodymrs]

It is pink. It's much clearer irl. Taking another this morning but scared!

 

[broodymrs]

Top one yesterday. Bottom one this morning. Not much progression but not stressing! Top one has got darker as its dried

 

[Sheece]

Broody!!! Congratulations Definite progression too, you must be so happy

 

[broodymrs]

Thanks sheece. Glad you can see progression as I can't really!
