We are PUPOLICIOUS hotties! (19 BFPs so far!!)

[themarshas]

I'm trying to get in the christmas spirit. I love the baking and decorations and parties. However we've decided not to do presents this year. YAY! I hate shopping for other people (sorry but I do) and if I want something I buy it for myself. Plus, we're all young (most of our siblings are in college, or just out, and my sister has a baby on the way) and we have other bills to pay that are more important. Although, I'm going to by my new niece or nephew something obviously! It's hard to think about xmas as we were planning on telling everyone our big news then and now we can't, so it's a bit depressing...

Ok ok what's everyone's fav xmas song???

 

[themarshas]

I have to many favs... Little Drummer Boy, Silent Night, and Walking in a winter wonderland stand out though...

 

[themarshas]

What colors are you all decorating in this year? I'm trying to diversify from the standard multi colored lights...

 

[jessy1101]

On another note: Today I'm annoyed that the Duggers (from the show: 19 kids and counting) are expecting again. Yes, #20. They should share there baby making secrets with the world!

My favorite all time Christmas song is Johnny Mathis's version of "O Holy Night"... so pretty.

I am a bit of a Disney freak, so many of my Christmas decorations are disney themed! (My Tree Skirt, Stockings, ornaments, even my tree topper which is Tinkerbell! I also have a Mickey Christmas Villiage) Most of my decorations in my living room are red/green, but my Dining room has a Candy theme going on. My Table Cloth is red and my Placemates/Napkins are Blue with Red/White Candy Cane trim (I think). I can't wait to start decorating!

OMG! That family fascinates me! But their last one was born really premature, you would think they would stop after that one!

Hi ladies!

Twinks you can have my right ovary - it hurts so bad when I ovulate from it..I just did this cycke and I can still feel it. I got preggers off it kast time so it still works!

I'm team Edward all the way! Love how in love they are can't wait for tge bew movie!

We dont really do xmas gifts as I'm a poor graduate student and we have a mortgage to pay lol. Our families understand, haha.

Last night I had a glass of wune to celebrate my exam and I was hesitant to have it but honestly I was so wound up that even if i do have a bean in me it was probably thanking me for a way to chill out! But DH keeps reminding me I'm not pregnant and I can do whatever I want in moderation and while I know he's probably right I just can't stop avoiding things after i o. I dunno..maybe DH is just trying to not let me get my hopes up too high...do you ladies avoid sushi and drinking after you o if am I being kinda crazy?

You're not crazy. I've officially gone to decaf and it's just not the same *tear*. I'm no longer drinking at all- although the bottles of wine in my fridge are seriously calling my name lately (I think knowing you shouldn't makes you want it all the more). and I'm avoiding sushi, deli meat, and anything else on the pregnancy do not eat list. I hate it. But it makes my overprotective DH feel better and who knows, maybe It'll be worth it. Although, if AF shows next week I will eat and drink anything I want!!!

 

[confusedprego]

Yea I've been avoiding deli beats, limiting caffeine, no drinking, making DH smoke away from me, etc basically acting like im pregnant as soon as I o. The two weeks before that I pig out on all the no nos lol I dunno...I just know DH wouldn't have the discipline to cut stuff out like I do so maybe thats why he puts it so lightly.

 

[Twinkie210]

As a rule I avoid drinking during my 2WW, but I don't drink that much anyway. I did have a glass of wine at 10dpo this past weekend, but I had already had a - hpt that day and I was fairly certain that I wasn't pregnant (and was right ). I have been trying to limit my caffeine, but just so I will be used to it when I do get that BFP! Although I have read that there is no need to do this because the placenta doesn't develop until 6 weeks...

 

[NewbieLisette]

Same here confusedprego! Just one of those things in my head that I don't wanna regret just incase! Congrats on the great accomplishment btw, u totally deserved that glass of wine girl

As for me CM still seems really EWCM so looks like I'm O'ing! Last of the Sangria tonight & totally anxious for my reading which still hasn't come!!!!

 

[babydust818]

Prego- I'm a drinker. I love me some wine. I love it all actually but after i O you can forget it. I won't touch a drink. I don't like sushi anyways so that's not new to me. Its crazy how ttc makes you. Right now i can do whatever i want. So bring on the wine, beer, hard liquior lol.

 

[themarshas]

I don't think these things really hurt. Its just that I don't want to M/C again and if I did I really wouldn't want to have to wonder if I did enough to keep my little bean safe. I had a few glasses of wine before I knew I was preggo last time and we had a sushi date. So although I don't realllly believe this hurt me or the baby, there's always going to be the small place in my head that wonders. So this time I'm being overprotective and so is my DH who took this M/C probably harder than I did. He'd been asking me about having a baby for 2 years

I know that little feeling of guilt, I had it too. But nothing you did or didn't caused your M/C. But I agree it is tough not to be overly cautious now.

Thank you babydust!!

oh goodness...the duggars. when will it end? I was friends with a guy in high school that was the youngest of 14...I thought that was pretty crazy.

I love: Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

aw I know the feeling, but really none of those things would make you miscarry.
