Team Ding Dong... Bonking, Bumping, and Burping Along Together! ;-)

[Hopes314]

damita im nto sure what youre looking for but no doubt it was the cats hah, our cats steal EVERYTHING that is small enough for them to budge.


Past few days I've been having some lower belly "pains" particularly when I move around. Is it just because things are stretching? I don't really know what it feels like, just little pokes here and there that dont feel great I guess. And my favorite question.. "am i normal?" Also, woke up Sunday morning with a little bump! Husband and I got out of bed and he said "what did you EAT?!" gosh. hah. I'll post a pic in a bit when I can drag myself downstairs! Staying up this am to help husband get ready for work and his drs appt and stuff. yum.

[Hopes314]

dh works all day and wont be home until 10pm so we did our valentines day stuff sunday (we baked a cake and drew all over it lol) Buuut.. valentines day is no big deal to us becauseeee.. our one year wedding anniversary is feb 20th! So we're gonna focus on that day since its a sunday and he will actually be around lol. what are you doing for vday tink?

 

[Tinkerbellxxx]

Oh I almost forgot, regarding the and gender. I BDed 2 days before O, on O day, and the day after, and I have a girlie. We also did every other day in the lead up to O. I knew about the gender advice for but just wanted a BFP So I guess my secret was plenty of BDing full stop, I think it must have helped that I used soft cups and concieve plus, all helping out those fat sluggish female sperm lol Also as I had BD'd quite a lot before O so would have had some girl's waiting for eggy.

Did you get your chart sorted Lupine? x

Good morning girls,

Wow it's Valentine's Day! Happy Valentine's Day all! I'm not a big fan personally but dh took me out to Harvester for a meal last night and that's enough for me.

Hope everyone is feeling better today. Tink your head is okay? Hopes take it easy hunni, hope it's nothing serious.

Well, girls, i'm absolutely and utterly shattered. I have not had a good night sleep for days now and i'm not feeling good about it. Last night i couldn't get to sleep till around 2am and i was up every hour afterwards. I gave up at 6am. I took my temp and it'll all messed up now. I usually take it at 7am but i took it at 6.05 and it was 36.54C (below coverline), but i used the adjuster and it went to 36.64C (above coverline but still low compare to other days). I don't know if i should put it into ff or just leave it out. What do you think Tink and Coral???

I also need to go for my progesterone test today, but i called my gp a week ago and already was fully booked for today so i need to go to hossy and queue at pathology. Ha! That will be fun. Anyway, i need to do it so no other choise.

Hope you all have a good day xxxxxxxxxxx

Morning Hopes awww how long will it be Sunday?

Me? DH works early in the morning, he got up and hour before a decorated the living room with I love you balloons, left a vase of red roses, card, and a large heart shaped tin full of all my fav sweets I've been craving He will be back from the school run in 30 mins to cook me breakfast. Tonight we are doing our usual V day thing, kids go upstairs to bed early with a film, and we take it in turns each year to cook dinner - my turn this year. x

 

[Hopes314]

babydream i'd put your temps into your chart but you can type little notes in there to yourself mentioning why your temp might be a little crazy. i put notes ALLLL through my charts including symptoms and all that, and it was fun to go back and compare, say, 5dpo from one cycle to 5dpo from another lol. also when my temps were crazy i would just put them in anyway and make a note of why crazy. but ive heard the temp adjuster thing can be fairly accurate if the time is not TOO far off

 

[Tinkerbellxxx]

Oh missed the bit about your pains Hopes. What do they feel like ? I'm pretty sure they are 'growing' twinges, or what they call round ligament pain. They are mainly when you move, and can be very sharp or ache but nothing like period type pains. Its the cramping period pains that you need to be concerned with. All your ligaments and things are relaxing and giving way for the growing baby and accommodating the organs that are being pushed away. x

 

[Hopes314]

aww tink you guys go all out for valentines day, how fun! and february 20th will only be... 1 year since our wedding lol. but still exciting! i think we are just going to go out to dinner and then have dessert after. nothing crazyy.

 

[Tinkerbellxxx]

Babydream don't worry bout the temp, put it in. It may have naturally been low this morning anyway, I had a dip at 6DPO..... (Implatation ) If it was indeed due to implantation tomorrows should rise again, you could do what Hopes said to make a note that it might not be accurate. FX! mmmmmm yummy harvester I haven't been to one in ages! I love the salad, could eat that right now x

 

[poppy666]

Happy Valentine's Day

Babydream glad im not the only one that dont really celebrate it, personally i think its over-rated and too commercialised blahhhhhhhhhhhhh, but the odd bunch of flowers is acceptable

Sorry to hear your having disturbed sleep sweetie

OH in Germany till Thurseday so i guess i get my cuddles & snogs off korben today

PK testing today?

Tink dont think id risk not dtd near ov time lol may just leave the actual ov day out, but dtd 3 days prior and maybe day after if OH home that night x

Hope everyone is well xx

 

[Hopes314]

mmm salad! now is the part where you guys talk about food and then i want to eat everything! lol tink i am STILL on a mint chocolate chip ice cream binge!

and about the pains, it seems to be what you are describing about the "twinges" or something, its nothing like period cramps, and its definitely when i move around. ive heard of round ligament pains but i thought that was something that occurred further along. i know nothing about babies and pregnancy it seems! lol

 

[Tinkerbellxxx]

We don't go all out, but I do love Vallentines day! Even as a kid I celebrated with my parents, we decorated the house and gave each other cards. I try to do things with mine also, so will be making Valentine's biscuits today. Last year I did a chocolate fountain with them, think there's photos on Facebook I'm a soppy sod x

 

[poppy666]

Chocolate fountain sounds amazing 'worth the banging migraine'

 

[Hopes314]

mmm tink chocolate fountain! (and you do too go all out lol, balloons and flowers and breakfast AND dinner!) going to ask dh why i cant have a chocolate fountain haha

 

[babydream]

Wow, Tink your dh is ace for doing all that for you. I wish mine did, maybe i'd appreciate this day more. *sigh* Enjoy every minute of it hunni xx

Hi popsy, just b'd as much as you can and feel like it. Can't be easy with dh away a lot. My father is a truck driver has been in all his life. He left us when i was ten but i still remember my mum and i missed him so much when he was away sometimes up to a week and only was home for weekends if.

I'll put my adjusted temp in ff girls, cheers for the help, i'll just make a note of it. I don't know what to do about sleeping, i tried lavender oil on my pillow but didn't help.

Edited: Tink, the highlight of Harvester for me is Rocky Horror (sponge with hot choclate sauce topped with vanilla icecream and whipped cream) mmmmmmmmm

 

[Tinkerbellxxx]

I agree Pops, too commercialised as is with every other holiday, but a good opotunity to spreeeeed the luuuuuurrrrrveeee enjoy your hugs n kisses from Korben x

Hopes, the hormone Relaxin starts being produced from 2 weeks. Its responsible for this relaxing of all the ligaments, and the idea is it allows the pevic bones to separate making room for your growing baby. Its not to do with your bladder is it? x

Yeah ok, I guess we do go all out Don't ever spend much though, (roses are from Tesco £5) He left price tag on But yes I know how lucky I am to be made a fuss off. He may not be very interested in the baby stuff but he is a romantic so I'll let him off. I know he will be an amazing dad one little princess gets here so not worried that he wont go baby shopping with me etc x

 

[poppy666]

Yes Babydream it can be very lonely being with someone who works away all the time and very hard to maintain a relationship, we've certainly had our moments, but we been togethor 18yrs this August so we doing something right lol not that i'll ever get married again tho cos i think it would ruin it now x

 

[coral11680]

morning ladies

Babyd yeah I agree put your adjusted temp in anyway, one day off isn't a big deal although would be nice if it was implantation! Hope you don't have to wait too long at the hospital.

Tink you are a lucky lucky girl, I just got a card doesnt bother me though really never do much usually just another day for me. Sorry I cancelled our valentines lunch and ruined your romantic plans I havent eaten since my lunch came up yesterday and still feel nauseous but havent been sick since about 8pm last night. Fingers crossed its leaving. Then maybe we can do lunch tomorrow?

Hopes I get those pains too that tink was mentioning just everything stretching you are normal

PK good luck and for testing hun.

Poppy I wasnt sure when I was going to O as I didnt get a positive the month I conceived so just did what I thought, and I wasn't trying to gender sway. Just happened that I bd-ed 3 days leading to O but not on O day. Didnt bd after either. Of course used conceive plus everytime.
