Sunset how exciting! Sounds like it wont be long until she's here!
Sunset, I wondered what ur Fb comment was meaning! I get it all the time now... soon your amazing little bundle will be here, I'm sorry you had such a hard time from dh's relatives!! I'm off to dh's family tomorrow, have 4 houses to go to and I'm bound to get the comments... can't believe she will be here soon! I was thinking of you whilst in next today, they had little bodysuits with 'born in 2011' on them and I wondered if that will be ur little one soon! x
Deaks, sorry about ur attempt! TTC is super tough and esp at this time of the year u have lots of other things on ur mind that u forgot it was there, try not be so hard on yourself...did u attempt again??
Morning ladies, hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. It seem to come around so quickly this year and i wasn't ready, lol. Thank you so so much to my secret santa, i love love love my little gifts and thank you for the boys, they're just fab!!! xxx
Morning :) I woke up this morning with the worst possible cold.. I haven't tried to speak yet but I'm pretty sure I won't have a voice lol
I have spent ALL night in false labour with regular tightenings which kept waking me up but it seemed to have died down this morning.
maybebaby ~ how worrying for you hun! 1+ protein isn't too bad though.. When do you next see your midwife?
Inglewood ~ I couldn't believe people yesterday! They had all obviously been drinking alcohol so didn't have much common sense any of them but I felt like a rabbit that someone threw to the dogs :S in the end I actually avoided to say hi to some of the people there just because I didn't want to hear anymore comments.. and like I said, we only popped in for about 15 minutes on the way back from the hospital. I can deal with most comments but one of dh's uncles yesterday asked me if we're hoping for a girl this time and while it's a relatively harmless question, it was the way he asked it.. He had such a negative tone and basically implied we would be disappointed with another boy. I was gobsmacked! I know I'm very hormonal at the moment but I find these comments very hurtful and down grading.. It brings out the protective side of me because it feels like people are putting my boys down if you know what I mean and people just don't seem to get that I would never swap either of my boys for a girl! Good luck with your family do :) you must really be looking forward to january when you announce the news? I sometimes wish we didn't keep it a surprise just so I can shut people up but then I'm pretty sure they would have some other comments instead
Deaks ~ so sorry to hear your attempt didn't go to plan, but at least you managed to squeeze in another attempt so you're in with a good shot this month :)
Lavenderlime ~ hun you are amazing! I admire you so much for being so strict on the diet over christmas! You should be so proud of yourself! I've got my fx that you did manage to catch the egg! Its so frustrating when our attempts don't go to plan!
Indigoviolet ~ love your signature! :)
Babymad ~ glad you liked the presents :) enjoy yorkshire, I hope you have a good time!
Hello to everyone else! What's everyone doing for new years?
Sunset I don't think people mean any harm by comments, but people always give their comments and have an opinion on things, whether you ask for it or not!
Everyone in my family knows I want a girl they don't need to ask or comment, I tend to get in there first, my nan did say 'make sure it's a girl this time kell!' yesterday, I just laughed and replied I'm trying nan but no pressure huh!
I don't tend to get upset by them but I can understand when your feeling like you do that it can be upsetting!
New year is a bit of a non day here, I'll probably end up in bed way before 12!
I'm starting to wish I hadn't brought a computer game for oh now, two nights on the trot he's come to bed after 2am after having played on it alllllllllllllll day, it's driving me made! I'm going out shopping with my little sister today because I don't wanna see it anymore!
Kell ~ you are right! :agree: i don't mind if it's people i know.. yes it annoys me, but when people i don't really know like in this case some distant half drunk uncles on dh's side who i see once every 3 years, asks me with a very nasty undertone if we are putting our hopes on a girl this time it really ticks me off, because it really is none of their business. I mean, what am i supposed to answer? it's not like anyone is interested in "we're hoping for healthy". and yesterday got to me because none of these people actually bothered to talk to me or ask me how i'm doing, they all just walked straight up and blurted out their gender comments lol one of the ladies walked up to me, grabbed my belly with both hands and said "do you know what you're having then" and as soon as i said "nope we're keeping it a surprise" she gave me a funny look and walked away :S wtf :S :rofl: i should have known better than show up with my pregnant bump at a family do with 60 drunk, nosey people. It's like dangling a piece of lamb over a crocodile lake!
Pmsl yeh you could be right there! Drunk people annoy me at the best of times but when there like that it's worse! Grrr!
When do you have to hi back into hospital?
The comments about whether we're hoping for a girl aren't so annoying (though I do get protective over my boys too like you Sunset!) as tedious - come on, think of something else to say to me!! What IS annoying to me is when people ask whether we have any ideas for names and then have something bad to say about all our ideas - my mum and dad did this yesterday and I had to tell them that actually, they don't get any say in the matter! Despite that, if somebody says 'oh God no, that's awful' it does have an effect on my opinion even if I don't want it to - and we're so struggling to find any names we like. I actually think it would be easier to find a boy's name!
We won't do anything for New Year - we haven't done since we had children I don't think! DS1 thinks he's going to stay up unti midnight so we'll probably be asleep before him (at least I will!).
I was going to put away all the new toys today (and put some others in a bin bag ready for the charity shop!) but DH is doing a mammoth dump trip so I'm watching a film with the boys instead :D
Sunset - hugs for the cold and the BH x I always get this at the end of my pregnancy to be fair it lasts from about 34wks till D day! Annoying and it does get painful but you do get used to it x hope its the real thing soon and that you dont have to be induced x Sorry for all the the rude comments...at least you can feel a little smug it being a girl even though i know thats not the point x
Deaks - FX for your attempt x seriously with all the crazy stuff i added my my body and i got a BFP anything can happen...only takes 1 sperm x FX for you hun x
lavender - hope you got your egg too - wow you are hardcore no xmas dinner!! That is v impressive x

indigo - loving the ticker x
inglewood - how are you x when is your next scan?
maybe - hope you are ok and bump is behaving hope the protein disappears are the checking it?
babymad - are you feeling any better yet?
waves to all littlemiss, chocolate sorry anyone i have missed x 3lm 2monkey x
Had to work today am shattered it was so busy x getting nervous about my scan too although listened to button on the doppler today can hear them moving now :D we dont do anything for new year never have! We get some nice food try and have a meal for 2 kids depending and then i never manage to stay up DH always falls asleep about 11.50 in front of hooternanny ;)
Thanks ladies for the well wishes! I didnt feel half so bad in the morning. We got a second attempt in and as dh said about the first attempt, Its likely the femmecup kinda got squished to one side in my vg and that when the load was deposited and then he withdrew, quite a bit probably got trapped inside the femmecup not outside. Trouble is when i removed the femmecup in a panic, i didnt take care to notice where any sperm ended up. But im hoping that at least some from that deposit made its way. Still feel so stupid and so relieved we got a second attempt in! Anyway im viewing new year as a new start in my swaying journey and just gonna write 2011 off as a really crappy practice year!!!! Hopefully by this time next year i will be in sunsets position!!
Hope you are all well X
