Uk SMOG Wannabes ~ January

wow - I just skimmed through a lot of posts!!!! Can't keep up sometimes. Been running around here like a headless chicken - sewing and baking cakes... DS1's birthday party was today and tomorrow is take 2 party (for just the family - DH is one of 5 so we have to do a separate party).

I don't know where to begin with all the posts....

Hello nini :wave:

Ooooh hope Sunset gets to post a piccie of bubba on here sometime :) Fantastic news!!!

Our horrid hot hot weather has died down and its been a pleasant 25 today... Had a great party. I finished the tee pee I made and I'm exceedingly proud of myself and simply have to show you all :D
Attachment 1083

The kids loved it... although struggled with 5 of them in there :D

Oh question - those of you who had a front placenta in a pregnancy - when did you feel bubs move? Do you feel it less overall or is it just that it takes longer before you feel anything? I know I'm getting to the point where I started to feel movements and wondering what difference a front placenta is going to make. Thanks!

Anyways - I need to get to bed early and pysch myself up for more entertaining tomorrow.

Hi all, 11dpo and not even a sniff of a line. Just been trying to get my head together this end. Feeling very disillusioned about the whole ttc/swaying thing. Want to get pg, want to hold onto the dream of a dd but clearly something has got to give. Dont know whether to hold out for a while longer with the o+12 and some kind of diet or to stop all that and just get stocked up on sudafed and acigel and bd through ov. Anyway hope you are all ok. We are off to Norfolk this weekend hopefully to buy a house so i will have that to look forward to hopefully. Thanks for being there for me, means alot X

pinga, I am so jealous, its around 0 degrees with some snow here, I hate winter :( Well, I have always had anterior (front) ploacentas and have felt my babes confidently around 18 weeks perhaps?

Deaks, lets do next month together! Since I have such a longcycle, we will perhaps o together? You said yourself that you have really only had a couple of real o+12 attempts and you did conceive twice right? so this really is only the 3rd or 4th try? I am so sorry you didnt get that line, although you still CAN, most women dont even test until 14dpo....

Thanks nini, that would be great! feel like i need some hand holding at the moment! I will hopefully ov end of jan...how about you? Hard getting back on the diet especially since im away from this afternoon until sunday...no chance! oh well hopefully last year will count for something! X

actually, sorry, I forgot I cannot attempt this cycle yet as I would have been on diet for long enough.... will attempt at the end of February. I wish I could attempt this cycle, but mustnt mustnt mustnt. I would only regret it later if I hadnt given it the full 6 weeks...starting supplements today and slowly going into the diet, full on diet from next week yikes. but I should also ovulate in late January! so we can monitor our cycles together at least.

What am I going to do on my birthday? 21st January.... what do you drink if you have to cheat? white wine? prosecco?

i think supposedly the only thing you can drink alcohol wise as a treat is vodka and canberry...urgh, some treat! i would go with prosecco for sure!! x

oh deaks :( are you using the same tests?? Which one did you get a + on?? Oh lady sending you the biggest hugest hugs I really want you to get that BFP x x

Pinga that teepee is awesome - i made one for ds3 birthday and the boys looooove it x ds3 was frontal placenta i didnt feel kicks properly till after my 20wk scan and even then i didnt feel him kick as much as the others....but that was probably partly being busy too with the others and not noticing x how long till your scan. p.s can i come live with you i loooooove the sun!!

Good luck for those having scans this week x x

gosh, is that actually the 2nd sac in the first picture? The one beside it a bit smaller? Amazing!

Deaks, yeah, vodka with cranberry errr I would rather stick with diet coke, thanks. So do you think some prosecco is ok?
