It's at 11am Inglewood - don't worry if I don't get on here until around 2pm though. It's quite a long way home and DH and I will eat some lunch somewhere first. I'm considering going to Mothercare or Mamas and Papas and buying an outfit either way but I've never bought anything for a baby this early and it feels like jinxing things. Will see how the mood takes me!
Charlie so happy you found your little beans heart beat! It must have been the best feeling and helped to put your mind at rest!
Zanacal fingers and toes crossed for you tomorrow. So exciting I'll be stalking the thread from 2pm onwards :)
Sunset thankyou I rang twice but was put on hold for so long I gave up. I'm really hoping that i've read it wrong. It say's £383.01 to pay. But not sure if I need to pay or they owe me? I really hope it's a rebate. From what I cobbled from the recorded message if it's a rebate I should get a payment through the post in around 4 weeks time. If I owe them I should get a new tax code. But I don't pay tax at the moment as I don't earn enough only working part time. It made my stomach sink when I first read it and thought I'd need to pay up straight away and my overdraft has already taken a bashing this month with Christmas and my car tax needing renewing but that's not the case so that's got rid of that intial worry!
Does anyone have their tree up yet? I think we're going to wait until saturday otherwise all the needles tend to dry out by Christmas day from the fire and central heating. So excited I love the smell of Christmas trees.
I got some yankee candle tea lights yesterday in 'kitchen spice' and the house smells so festive! Cherries on snow also smelt yummy so might get that when these run out.:)
Deaks i'm dying to know what your making for your secret santa but you obviously can't say or it wouldn't be secret! lol
sunset sorry to hear you have numb fingers I had the same thing with ds2 like you it was only in the mornings and thankfully wore of with movement. Us ladies have to go through so much to get our bambino's. I'm so glad that men weren't designed to carry babies or the world would be a mess!! :D
Zanacal good luck tomorrow!!
Charlie yay for hearing the heartbeat! What a reliefe!
Deaks good luck with your sway this month!
H&G Fingers crossed for a bfp!!!
Lavender is that for the car thing? Hope you get the money and don't owe it!
I went for the interview, it went well for me and way lol! It's only a temp contract so actually being pregnant wont effect things, I did tell the agency anyway because I felt guilty lol!
charlie, so pleased for you that you heard a heartbeat... came at the right time before you totally worried yourself sick :)
zanacal, like i said on your post, good luck for tomorrow hun! Cant wait to hear your news! X
lavender, i do hope you read that letter wrong, and it is them paying you! Otherwise awful timing before christmas. We havent got our tree up yet for the same reason. Got lots of family coming over between christmas eve and new years day so dont want it drying out too early! Think it will be next weekend for us! X
Charlie~ So happy you heard the heartbeat..thats fantastic..what a relief! My attempt was as good as it could be. O completely changed this month- my first month ttc, of course. My plan was to DTD at first OPK because I usually O 2 days later. This cycle I got a + OPK in the am, had DH release in the am, did rephresh, and then DTD that night. Turns out FF and Ovacue said I O'd that same day. I would have freaked several months ago, but the more I read the more I don't think timing has anything to do with it. The most recent study actually found more girls conceived an O day! Dh did frequent from AF to O and the day before O and the day of he released twice. I did a little replens sometime after too.
I have been taking HPT's and getting negatives, but I am beyond tired, and my temps are way up... Will see FF says AF is due tomorrow- will do a FRER with FMU tomorrow.
Lavender~ Did you attempt yet? I think you were right behind me...then I O'd 4-5 days earler then normal! I put up a tree, but we have a fake one. Most people think it looks real, I love looking at it at night. Just took the kids to seee Santa and they each picked out ornaments..each year I get them personalized with their names and have the date on there too. Got their Christmas pic and felt really down seeing all the adorable baby girls at the photo place. I think these holidays are really a downer this year because I was due on January with a DD :( . All I can hope (and all I want) is a baby girl to join my beautiful boys in next years photo card!
Inglewood~ I think of you all the time... Your scan is next week, right??
Zanacal~ Good luck again tomorrow...
H&G- yeah next tues at 11am. Having weird 'boy' dreams, waking wondering if it's the truth! Fx for a bfp in time for xmas!
Z, FX for u tom. Going xmas shopping into the city, so prob won't get on till late afternoon either. Will be wearing pink. xx
Babymad, glad ur sickness is easing, shame u had CTS too, it was so so sore for me, once it starts for me it gets worse and worse till I have it 24/7. Can feel it niggling in tune with the start of SPD....lovely!! You can tell I'm not sick anymore, managed to put on 8lbs now, eek, better watch. Think it's been mths of girl diet, then sickness, I've got food crazy! so better start being good.
Lavenderlime, that tax bill is awful at xmas, FX they owe u!!!
Your all so good having real trees, I couldn't be fussed with the mess! terrible I know!! Dh would love one and I've promised next yr, hopefully in a new house he can go get one. So our lovely B&Q artificial one will go up on sat!! It's actually a good one, was super expensive and I like it, looks like the real thing, but Dh grew up with real trees and hates it!!! We never had a real tree, my folks still use the same tree from when I was a kid!! lol
Kell, congrats on getting the job, some extra £ over xmas will be good and hope u keep well?
Heading off to bed, need to get up early to get boys to school then out to city to spend £ we don't have. Going to ikea and toys r us. Heard we are due 90mph wind, hopefully NOT tomorrow! nite all. x
Well bang goes my shopping trip with Dh, schools closed due to red weather warning of high winds!!! 70mph+ Typical!! So a duvet day and maybe get the tree down from the loft later.
19wks pg today...can't believe how quick this is going in....ahh!
