[Radkat]

Radkat u r better than I ... I would be asking for today's to know that it's better u got Patience Girl!!!

Ha. Funny that you should say this. DH just texted me asking if I was going to get yesterday's number to compare to last week's. I said I would call in the am if I hadn't heard anything.

 

[terripeachy]

Sis and Fezzle-Both of your birthdays are coming up. Woohoo!!!! I'm pretty sure I marked it for Sunday on my work calendar. Be positive, Sis. Cramping doesn't mean bad. It means snuggling in.

nessaw-We understand and know you're a Hope you're feeling ok.

Felcity-Sometimes i wish my hubs was more of a BD'er. He seems to want to talk about it more than actually do it, but he is usually pretty good if I give him the wink, wink, nudge, wear no pants, nudge. HA!!HA!!

VJean-I said it on the other thread, but I'll say it again. Congratulations, mama! I am so THRILLED for you. We are all definitely in the right place at the right time, and maybe just all the positive energy is doing the trick. Love love BFPs!!

ERose-Stop being impatient. You'll be fine tomorrow or the next day when you test. We have to remain calm.

Radkat-Did you hear anything?

Oldermom-Hope you made it safely to Maine. I think you should be there by now, but you're probably exhausted and busy catching up with your fam. We miss you!!

SPP-C'mon symptoms!!! The whole shebang. I hope it's so bad you don't even realize your kids are hooked to computers. hee hee. Love ya!

I got a +OPK this afternoon when I came home from work. The package that I bought had 20 tests in it for supposedly two months. I have been a pretty regular ovulator, so I have plenty of sticks to use. That's the only reason why I've been using so many. And of course, this is my last time using them because I'm getting my BFP this month, SOO....I'm glad I got a positive because I still have about 8 left (just in case I need them next month). I'll probably do another one Saturday morning because it says once you get a positive to stop, but you know how it goes. If my temperature doesn't jump before Saturday when I wake up, I'm doing it again.

On the front, if Roxy isn't cleared physically for adoption, we'll keep her another week. If she is cleared, she's going to find a home this weekend. She is so cute, and people LOVE a housebroken dog. With or without a leg, if you know the dog isn't going to poop on your carpet/hard wood floors, people will want her. I say the same about fostering. If they are unsure about being housebroken, my dogs usually stay in their crates when I'm not home. Roxy loves sleeping, so she can stay out and sleep.

*sigh* I feel SOOOO much better with a smiley, it's ridiculous. I don't need drugs. Just give me a smiling OPK any day. HA!!HA!!

 

[Katie Potatie]

VJean!!! Yayyyyyyy!!!! Those are beautiful lines for 10dpo. Big CONGRATS!!! I just can't believe it, another BFP... It's like bam, bam, bam! Unfreaking real!!

 

[VJean]

Thank you so much ladies! To say I'm happy is an understatement! I am determined to be in a positive mindset this time around. Yeah, I'm scared, worried, know every bad think that can happen, but it isn't going to this time!

As for how I told DH....it was over text message! Ha! Actually quite fitting for our relationship, since that's how it all started. He is just as bad as I am with temping and tests. So much so, my temp sticks (yes, I use 3...don't judge!) fell off my nightstand in the middle of the night last night, he heard them and got up to retrieve them. Such a sweetie! He saw my wondfo this morning and knew there was a hint of a line, so he was anticipating me using a FRER after I ran to the store. I sent him a text of the test I took as I was driving back to work. Pretty boring story!

Sis, I agree with Terri- cramps means baby is snuggling in! So excited for your scan in the morning!

Erin, only had a hint of a shadowy line yesterday. Test looked negative if you weren't crazy obsessive like me! Hoping you get a line in the next few days!

Terri, get off BnB and get to !

 

[SweetPotatoPi]

Sis I'm actually wondering if I'm not cramping enough . It's going to be aces tomorrow .

Woohoo!!! Congratulations again VJean!! Don't think I've ever been a part of of a thread that got this many BFP's in a month . +35's rockin' it .

And yes Radkat and anybody else, jump on the Bump Buddies train when you're ready!

Yep terri, that's EXACTLY how gobsmacked I want to be with symptoms . The boys will be ecstatic with ZombieMommy too .

nessaw. Jump in whenever you're ready .

felicity I could definitely merc that buttermilk vanilla chocolate ganache cake . That thing's been on my brain since I saw that picture!!

 

[Fezzle]

VJean- so happy for you!

Terri- my birthday was Saturday! I'm 38 now- feeling the pressure to have a baby before my next birthday now!

Hi Ladies

I'm back from the Brit Awards - was it good? - it was bloody amazing -
So I've tried to catch up with you chatty ladies

VJ - congratulations mama - that is a fantastic line -

Sis - Good luck at your scan today - maybe there might be two that's why you're feeling the cramps - sure its just little one(s) settling in

Smile - Glad hubby finally had test - MEN urgh! - mine refused the SA (still not quite forgiven him)

SPP - What are you watching on Netflix - we have watched Breaking Bad, Dexter and Orange is the New Black and now we are watching 4400 (agreed to watch this as a treat for my son - hmmmm he failed to tell me it had many many episodes)

ER - Sorry to say I'm just your average Joe we bought a ticket and went - we was looking to see where the band Basteille were playing next and they had sold out - but there was still tickets for Brit Awards (were they were playing) with10 minutes those tickets had gone as well - so we consider ourselves very lucky.

Radkat - Sorry hun - waiting sucks BIG

Neesaw - BIG to you as well hun - we will all be here when you feel stronger

AFM - Did you know I went to the Brit Awards it was an amazing atmosphere and so sureal being in the same room as so many stars I mean Kylie, Beyonce, Katy Perry, Ellie Golding oh wow I was star struck for those of you who watched it on the TV (I did when I got back and relived every moment) when the camera zoomed out a little and you saw the stage but couldn't make out faces that was my view (but there were the big tv screens all around anyway).

During the day when we went to collect the tickets the 02 arena was packed (people hanging around just in case a star popped by) there were people sat with flasks and blankets (again I felt quite good to be walking upto security for my ticket) we collected our tickets after going through 6 lots of security and finally got a wristband put on - yeah we were going to the Brits

Hubby and I went for a bite to eat as time was ticking on and we needed to be back by 6 so we was walking out of the arena and I saw a big group of security with a man in the middle I said to hubby isn't that er......oh whats his face...... as we was walking by - when I finally remembered it was only Nile Rogers anyway not to worry.

We got to the hotel - eventually and checked in - London is a nightmare to drive around it takes forever. I sent hubby out for a bottle of wine thinking there had to be a corner shop near by - and I went to bed (still had a fever) Half an hour later he came back (no corner shop in sight) and I was starting to feel a little bit better the must have done me some good

We got ready and I must say I think we scrubbed up well - hubby took a pic of me on the red carpet so I will see if I can get it to show you

As we was going into the O2 we saw what looked like some men in helmets (takes all sorts I guess) hmmm not Dr Who fans - we had only just walked past DAFT PUNK

Also I felt really good about how I looked (not often I get a chance to dress up) and we passed this group of teenage lads (obviously star spotting) and one of them said to me "you look fabulous darling" cheeky little man!

The only down side about the Brits (and it is only a small thing - but when you get to my age) we were told we had 3 minutes to get to the loo and back - or security may hold you out of the arena for a while well if Harry out of One Direction can't get back in time - what chance have us ladies got - have you seen a queue for a ladies loo

We left the Brits on a high and was up dancing - we then got the ferry back to the hotel - I went into the bathroom changed into my sexy undies (from Valentine) and came out all ready to find hubby

Never mind there was always tomorrow - we weren't due to check out until 12.00 - I was starting to feel feverish again - so didn't sleep to well (besides I was on a high)

Morning came - we were both a bit groggy (him through drink) me just generally aches all over - but I was determined and hubby said oh my did you sleep in them last night and I missed it (result) until............ the fire alarm went off (sheesh we was in the Hilton what) so we had to get up get dressed and meet at the point - there had been someone smoking in their room - great! - so I have decided the sexy undies are going away for a very long time (they must be jinxed) although I still had the bottom half on (as I had to get dressed quickly) and guess what it worked he saw them at bedtime - I was shattered - he was wide awake - he won.

So for now I am at CD 13 and no clue whether or not I have Ovulated - one thing though my fever has broken but it has left me feeling would love to go back to bed but with two children to look after (on their holidays) that isn't going to happen

Have a great day ladies sorry my update wasn't more exciting

[garfie]

Our tickets and wristbands

 

[Sis4Us]

Wow Garfie what a Fab story it sounds like such a Great Mini Vaca!!!

I'm so jealous we were suppose to go somewhere for my Bday this weekend but I dont want to fly so I think we will just stay at home and put our trip off to NYC!!!

I was thinking twins too but my numbers are low so Prob not I think if they see 2 DH might Pass out!!!!
I'll have to take a video and post it!!!

 

[SweetPotatoPi]

Happy Belated Born Day Fezzle! How did you guys celebrate?

Wow, what a fabulous time you guys had garfie! Nice! And yes, I think those sexy undies might just be jinxed . Try a different color and style . Loooooove The 4400! Started watching it years ago then we stopped getting cable and I never saw the last six or so episodes . Now I get to start over . Right now I'm working on finishing up Lost and smack dab in the middle of quite a few other things (loooooooooove Breaking Bad!)

What time is your appt Sis? I've got a confirm this morning so heading to the gym now, then shower, then packing up the kids and out the door . I keep having to pee so hopefully I can hold it for the next almost three hours .

 

[kfs1]

Happy Belated Fezzle!

 

[terripeachy]

Fezzle-Yes, Happy Belated Birthday!!! I was a week off.

garfie-Your story was great! I wouldn't even know half the people you mentioned if they knocked on my front door. Sorry your panties didn't really work. They half worked, but I'd still hide them for a year from now. hee hee. So glad you had an awesome time. I love that you did something you just wanted to do. I like that attitude!

Sis-don't worry. NYC isn't going anywhere. Did I miss your update from your scan?

SPP-Hope your test goes well this morning too! Do you really have to hold your pee for 3 hours? Seems like a lot.

I'm back from my night at work. Everything was delayed, which was making me more and more tired. I was planning on getting home before hubs woke up, but to no avail. He was dressed and ready for work when I pulled in. I'm about to go to bed now, and then I have a lunch date at 1pm, and a nail appt at 4:30, I think. These gel nails are getting on my nerves. They just look better than my real nails underneath. I'm trying to grow out my real nails after acrylic abuse for 4 months.

Have a great Friday, all!

 

[Sis4Us]

So glad I got Bloods SPP NO way I could hold that Long!!! GL!!!!

Ok gotta get the LO ready and myself then going to meet my BFF after my scan for lunch will update u when I can!!!

 

[SweetPotatoPi]

terri, I guess I don't have to hold it that long but I figure the longer the better . Have fun at lunch and getting your nails done . I believe I read somewhere that massaging your nails and cuticles with a high quality oil or lotion (I love organic extra virgin coconut oil myself ) will help you grow strong, beautiful nails .

Have fun at lunch and at your scan Sis!

Alright, we're off!

 

[Fezzle]

Good luck, Sis!

Thanks for the birthday wishes! It was a very low key birthday. I didn't want to go out to eat because of Valentine's Day, so we decided to make a nice meal at home and save the meal out for another time. It was a really nice, relaxing weekend so perfect!

 

[Wish4another1]

Fezzle - yes yes Happy Belated Birthday!!!

garfie - how exciting - your time in London sounds fabulous!!! I don't know many of those singers either but who cares!!! You were with the rich and famous daarrrling... and glad you finally got some action from the hubby... these men... where are the ones that want it all the time??? I keep hearing about these mystery men...just don't seem to see them... they are like Bigfoot!!!

SPP - I am too old to hold my pee for over three hours!!! my daughter makes fun of me cause I am always running to the bathroom!!

terri - sorry your plans did not work out just as you wanted! I hope you were able to get some sleep - that day time sleep is not always the best... and for lunch and getting your nails done - maybe your prenatals will help with the nail repair???

felicity - did you ever choose your dessert? I will take one of each...

Vjean - I like your texting the picture to the hubby - My hubby never knows if I test - so I keep thinking what will I do if its positive - but in reality I won't be able to hold it in...so he will know right away...

nessaw - BIG to you... I hope your doing ok...

Oldermom - Hope Maine is a relaxing refreshing respite (ok enough with the R's)

AFM - yeah nothing going on ... hubbs is already feeling frisky - which is awesome except AF is still here damn... hoping she leaves TODAY!! but that would be two days earlier than normal ...so probably not!!
TGIF Ladies!!!

 

[SweetPotatoPi]

Wish you can always hope AF twists her ankle and cuts her stay short!

Sounds like a lovely time Fezzle . We would have gone down the same path .

Back from my confirm and the peesticks don't lie .
