Hey ladies, lots to catch up on tonight! Too busy to get on at work altho I don't know what with as I achieved Big Fat Nothing! I told my bosses boss and a few other people about the bubs today so think I was busy with that lol!

Bailey are you making brownies tonight still? I've not baked in ages, might have to soon!

Ttc how are you doing honey?

I did some kind of hair conditioning thing with egg yolk once back in high school. Don't remember what the other ingredients were, but it made my hair greasy! Maybe I just didn't rinse it properly afterwards??

OK as requested, my dress ... i may have posted it before but no worries it's been a while!

please excuse my lack of makeup and messy looking hair ... and the double chin ... that's what i look like everyday

Top two is my dress front and back. The bridemaid dresses are below, the regular version and the maternity version of the same dress for my bridesmaid who will be 8 months preggo at the wedding

The last pic of me is the second dress I tried on which I debated on between the two for a while. It's the dress my mom later went on to say maybe I should have picked just incase I did end up preggo again before the wedding lol.

I'm making an attempt at being positive. Not working entirely well. I'm still convinced I'm never gonna get pregnant again! But trying to think that it's silly, if it happened once, surely it must at some point happen again, right? We just have bad timing ... just bad timing ... i hope.

Very pretty Shellie!

pretty crummy but trying to keep busy around the house...thanks for asking. Getting a headache and just realized it's because i haven't eaten yet today...better do that.

Make sure you eat ttc. And I hope you manage to get enough time off work, I had misoprostol too and it wasn't a very pleasant experience. I had a month off work in total (but that was due to complications) but during that time I took loads of walks and loads if baking, it's when I perfected my cheese and mustard scones. And then I ate them which was good too coz it was comfort and meant I was still eating. Big hugs to you Hun, you are being so brave xxxxxx

Cupcake - I will be making them in a bit yeah! I ended up having a nap at teatime so just having some spag Bol (and got 2 portions to freeze, Tawn inspired me lol!!). And I will be watching Comic relief all evening and making chocolate and raspberry brownies!! I may even put a touch of Ameretto in them, do you think that would work cupcake?

 

[cupcake1981]

Mmmmmm chocolate and raspberry nice combo. When I make the nigella ones I sometimes put broken Oreo cookies in them, or rolos are a good one! Dunno about the amaretto, dunno how much you'd need to put in to get the flavour?

Ttc don't put a brave face on it, you need to grieve xxxx

 

[baileybubs]

Oh my god why am I watching comic relief?? I may hate One Direction but who can possibly watch this film of Harry Styles crying his eyes out over a little boy who's so sick he can't hold his own head up. It's heartbreaking! Not brilliant viewing for a heavily pregnant hormonal woman, I'd empty my bank account if I could for those sick children, it's awful!

 

[baileybubs]

Ok but now the comedy parts back so it's ok. Lenny Henry is cutting Jessie Js hair off!! Brave lady!

Thank you so much Bailey. I go back to work Monday. Just have to get back to it. I have a plan...going to get my body back into shape...that will help me focus on something else. I will start as soon as they tell me it's ok. I will be running and back to the gym to lose this 25+ pounds i was planning on losing before getting pregnant. We most likely won't get to try again until April/May.

 

[baileybubs]

It's good to have something to focus on ttc, it will help you move forward. I can't imagine how you are feeling but it's so inspiring when you are already talking about trying again. Anyone who can pick themselves up and be strong enough to keep going and keep trying after a loss, let alone more than one loss, is amazing.

 

[baileybubs]

Brownies are in the oven! I had to try really really hard not to eat the raw mix or lick it from the spoon!

 

[cupcake1981]

What did you put in them in the end? Don't cook for longer than the time, they will rise up but still wobble after their cooking, then it sinks and goes all fudgy and goey! Yum!

 

[baileybubs]

I did them with raspberries and put about 25ml of amaretto in there, I also put a mix of dark and milk chocolate coz I had some dark chocolate in my fridge too lol!

We'll see of they work. I never stick to recipes properly. When I was a chef I used to make sticky toffee pudding all the time coz it was on our menu, and I made it so often I never even weighed anything, I just knew by eye whether it looked right lol!

 

[cupcake1981]

Yum! I want brownies now altho I'm nauseaus again today so off the sweet stuff!

 

[baileybubs]

I hope they turn out ok though, I've never made brownies before.

Hehe Peter Kay is on comic relief now. I love him!

 

[cupcake1981]

Those ones are fail safe bailey, just don't cook to long like I say!

It's quite rude isn't it, been quite a lot of naughty words for before 9pm!

 

[baileybubs]

I know I thought that too! Mmmm brownies smell soooo goooood I wanna eat then now but gotta let them cool lol!

When Millie's older I'll teach her how to bake, can't wait lol!

 

[cupcake1981]

Aw that will be lovely!

Do you think there will be any left to freeze?!

 

[baileybubs]

Depends if I eat them all first haha!! I've already got 2 on my plate with my glass of whole milk lol!! They are delish!!
