[pk2of8]

morning girls...just on for a quick mo

caz, i say good riddance to and on to

lew, so sorry i missed your birthday yesterday hun! i hope you had a good day in spite of not feeling like doing much!

tink, sorry your aenesthetist appt didn't go well...dang. well, several of you don't have long now very cuuuute all the clothes on the wash line!! .... i don't know if they'll decorate the cake tink...i hope they do. if they do i'll take a pic to upload when we get back

coral, that's my kind of "cleaning" happy birthday to your chloe also

MC, happy birthday to your dh maybe saving him a little piece of cake would be good and so proud of you with cutting back

poppy, how's it going for you hun? i never had sore bb's when i was preggo before i guess it's just different for everybody.

lovebear, when do you plan on testing sweetie? i'm hoping that next cycle we'll be able to try our first iui...i hope!

china, good to see you sweetie

afm, gotta work all day today. ugh. i think dh and i are finally made up. he's very stressed about this math test tomorrow eveniing, so keep him in your prayers, ding dong. he has to pass it for the school to renew his contract. if he fails it, he'll have one more opportunity to take it in June, but the stress is just terrible he's been going to tutoring every day for 2 weeks, so God-willing, this will be it and he'll pass! stupid that as an English teacher, he has to pass a math test and can't get a waiver or something anyway, opk very dark yesterday, but i think JUST UNDER positive, so i expect today it will be full positive. i know my ticker says i've ov'd but i haven't. just that my temps have been all screwy this cycle so ff is being generous. i'm still having ewcm and cp is still high, soft, open, so i know i haven't ov'd yet. i'm not too worried about that other than that if i don't get a strong temp rise when i do ov b/c of the stupid prog issue, then it will be harder for ff to see it, but i can always go in and adjust the settings. i think we'll miss ov with bd'ing though. dh is just too tired and stressed and i don't want to pressure him. my only consolation is the specialist appt coming up. i am counting the days. and dh says he'll go get the bloodwork done tmw. he hasn't done it just b/c we've been so busy. anywhooo, i think that's it for now. gotta go take a shower and get ready to go! big

Birthday wishes to Cabbage's DH and Coral's Chloe! x

Morning Poppy I also hope SB gets on ok today, and am sending hugs x

Caz, hopefully this is the sign something DIFFERENT is happening with your cycle, and its gonna be a fertile one x

PK will be thinking of your DH and his exam, FX he passes and wont have the worry of a retest. on your O in case you do manage a little 'action' sometime over the next couple of days. x

Hi Ladies, can you help me please?

I had spinach and ricotta tortellini for dinner last night (which I have since freaked out about today since the Cow and Gate website says you shouldn't eat it but after further research it seems like its ok).

I have brought the leftovers in for my lunch, do you think I am ok reheating it and having it for lunch or shoudl I just not bother?

Thanks xxxx

 

[Tinkerbellxxx]

Hey Laura, sounds fine to me, just make sure its thoroughly heated. The problem with those cheeses is when they are eaten uncooked. Cooking destroys listeria, which is what can be harmful in pregnancy. You can even eat things like Camembert if its baked in the oven, yummy with crusty bread stay clear of the rind mind you. x

[laurah8279]

Thank you Tinkerbell!!

I love baked camembert so very happy about that too!

[coral11680]

just finishing up the laundry etc at my Dad's I'm pooped now!

PK good luck to your DH for his testing and pray he passes, so it relieves some stress for you both. Also hope you get a sneaky in before O.

SB thinking of you honey

Poppy only 8 days isn't it

morning Tink and MC

Caz hope you ok hun

I have eaten ricotta cheese since being preg, my hubby makes a lovely homemade lasagna with it mmmm

 

[poppy666]

PK hope everything goes well for DH and he passes sweetie

 

[Tinkerbellxxx]

I LOVE spinach and ricotta cannelloni, so good with a green salad and raw onion. Oooooooh now I feel the need to go food shopping

No probs Laura, come back for a chin wag / advice any time. Were a friendly bunch, and your most welcome x

Coral, I have no idea how your managing to carry on with your dads housework as well as your own. How long do you plan to carry on? You take it a little easier ok? Did you get a changing bag? x

I am really finding it hard to do a thing now. I just managed to make it upstairs with the baby washing, and by the time I got there I had to lay down for 30 mins gathering up enough strength to come back down again how I will manage to finish the 'nesting' I don't know, I could really use a lift in this house. And maybe a little chair on wheels, with a motor and a hoover on the back, and cleaning brushes rotating on the side x

 

[mothercabbage]

a house with a lift, now theres a plan...wonder where and how much to install...hmmmmmmm

 

[pk2of8]

i see it's been a quiet day in ding dong land today

just popping on before i head out to my next job. my cm has gone TOTALLY creamy (and tons of it ) today, but i know i haven't ov'd yet. opk is positive today as i suspected it would be, but i don't know what to think of the cm issue. temp went down just slightly this morning. i'll wait til later tonight to put in the info to ff...see if any ewcm shows back up. unusual for me to dry up before ov, unless i'm ov'ing now. i hate when it's so confusing anyway...off i go again girls miss you all

 

[coral11680]

Tink I like the sound of your cleaning chair! I go to my dads every two weeks so only 2 or 3 more times until baby then don't know if I will clean there after she comes. It's not too bad but I hate coming home to my messy house. Then I have to start over again no changing bag yet, still undecided. Quite like the look of the miracle changing bag in black polka dot or black flower.
PK maybe you are o'ing today although u would usually have ewcm right?

 

[Jenny Penn]

Hey ladies!
Not had a chance to read back yet, sorry i have been MIA i have just been working non stop but finally have 4 days off
So i am cd10 so not much happening right now, i got my bloods done a week ago but still haven't been able to make an appointment for the results but im guessing if there was anything really wrong they would have contacted me right? Anyway i will make an appointment tomorrow for sometime next week.
Hope everyone in Ding Dong land is well x

 

[pk2of8]

hey jenny! yay for time off my schedule is finally slowing down...no work tomorrow for me or until next week so i know how you feel!

coral, thanks you're right...after i was thinking about it more...my last several cycles i've ov'd on the same day as positive opk AND my cm tends to change or dry up the day of ov, so i'm pretty positive that it was today. now to try to convince dh to bd tonight..... i guess i'll let you girls know tomorrow what happens!

 

[mothercabbage]

:wave: had a rough day yesterday..poor chloe got attacked at school by another (much older)student, she is slightly bruised but ok, very shaken, school excluded/expelled the girl on the spot...i felt it wasnt punishment enough.as they have monday off(bank holiday) and the girl returns on tuesday, so its like they just gave her an extra day holiday! ..so i rung the police. all sorted and hope the girl who did it is as sorry as the coppers said she was...anyway, head ache today, tired, cats crying to get out at 4am, bump squashing my bladder at 3am, OH going to work at 5am.....i heard it all.... ffs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
going to make a brew and read back....

 

[sleeping bubs]

hey gals

sorry for delay in update went to scan yesterday that wasn't good had to do internal (which wasn't too pleased with why does it have to be a man!!) anyway then he says how many weeks are you meant to be I said almost 13 he said well it doesn't look hopeful what the Fu** thought I had lost the baby already last week they said only the sac there no growth or hb...... So got to go back in 2 weeks to have an internal scan again to compare them!! Rang up medicom to speak to a mw and she said she can't believe he said that but maybe he meant not looking hopeful that everything will come away. I am so so so confused what the hell is going on?? So now in limbo for the next 2weeks as bleeding slowed down almost stopped now brown wish someone would give a clear answer. Plus I have to keep my maternity notes!!

Anyway hope everything is ok

 

[mothercabbage]
