Yay for being a honeydew cupcake! On the home stretch now Hun, not long to go!

How is everyone today?

Only one week til you should ovulate mrs d yay! Technically if you catch the eggy you are already in week one of your pregnancy hehe!

Cath how you feeling about that private consultation?

Afm my easy going laid back baby is no longer easy going lol! It's this teething business! It's making her a right cranky pants and she's waking loads at night and just screaming. I put the teething gel on and she immediately stops.....for about ten mins! Dfs solution is calpol but I don't want to give her calpol every night, I don't know if its bad to do that? It's such a pain coz in the day I can distract her and give her teething rings but at night I can't do that! She's fast asleep now though and has been since 7.30, so I did as they say and I managed to nap whilst she did.

By the way are you testing this month cath or waiting on AF coz I see you are 10dpo.

 

[cathgibbs]

Awwww Bailey I dont know what to suggest hun? how about using calpol on alternative nights? Poor thing.....

Well DF and I had a chat and we are going to book the apt - cant have an apt for 2 weeks soooo shall i wait for af to arrive next week and book or book now? No hun ill test every day you know me haha xxx

 

[baileybubs]

I'd give them a ring and check what time of the month they ideally need to see you and book it from there Hun

 

[cathgibbs]

I asked the other day - they said any day so thats no problem - just confused lol xxx

 

[baileybubs]

Well to me it sounds like you are really excited about the idea of it and that you really wanna do it, so I say book it ASAP!

 

[cathgibbs]

Arghhhh i did!! lol just got off the phone they seem sooooo lovely - 10th Aguust 12.30 - ill have a scand DF swimmers will be tested and they go through all our history and decide which option is best! is it wrong of me to think they wont really be interested in giving any advice as we have only had 2 mc?? xxx

 

[baileybubs]

Don't be daft Hun, for one thing you are paying them money, but secondly it's their job, it's just the NHS that won't test til you have had 3 miscarriages.
I'm so excited for you!

 

[cathgibbs]

i could pee my pants lol! xxx

 

[baileybubs]

Aw bless ya lol! We need a ticker!

My friend has just emailed me a job vacancy for a company I previously worked for, 17 hours a week Mon-thurs evenings and Saturday morning, £8000 actual pay. I only left the job due to uni. If it was nearer Christmas this job might be ideal, but my gut instinct is saying "why give up 5 more months off work with Emilia?". I know it's only 17 hours but its 4 evenings a week. Plus as we are planning on ttc from Christmas, if I did get this job I'd have to put that on hold. Also it only pays a tad more than my current job and its further away so will have to drive there whereas I can walk to my current job so if df got another job he'd be able to use the car (when he passes his test). Do you think it's worth me applying or not? My friend reckons it could be worth it just for the interview experience etc, but is there a point if I don't think I want the job right now?

 

[baileybubs]

Or am I just taking the easier option by staying with my current job?

 

[cathgibbs]

wHAT HOURS WILL YOU BE DOING IN YOUR OLD JOB WHEN YOU GO BACK HUN AND IS IT EVENINGS OR DAYS?? woops caps on sorry! I would say stick with your old job as it pays a lil bit less but with the newj ob you might be using more fuel to get there? xxx

 

[cathgibbs]

and your going to be ttc again I think itll be better with the old job but thats just me chick xxx

 

[baileybubs]

That's what I was thinking, more job security coz I've been there 2 years now. If I got a new job I'd probably have to work there a year before considering ttc I think.
My old job will probably have me working one or two evenings but they will be more flexible with me I think. Plus they are more likely to give me 3 shifts that are a bit longer rather than 5 small ones.

 

[cathgibbs]

ahhhh stay with your old job - more security - you know the people - you know the system etc id stay for def xxx

 

[SATH]

Soz havent been on I'm at my sisters for a few days. Af arrived 10dpo yet again gutted and disappointed that lp just will not extend.

Hope everyone ok. Catch up when i get back x

 

[baileybubs]

Aw that sucks Sath hope you are having fun at your sisters though

Thanks cath, I think I just needed some reassurance that I'm doing the right thing staying at my old job. My friends and family don't seem to understand my reasoning but then they don't really know that I want to ttc so soon again.
