UK SMOG Wannabes ~ December

[Lavenderlime]

I know, scary! i'm getting quite anxious to meet her now actually and see that she's okay despite my chicken pox infection.. It's a worry I wish I didn't have.
Your attempt must be coming up soon?

I think in about 6 days! eek. I drank some crystal light that I orderded a few weeks ago and mixed one sachet with two pints of water so really concentrated as I'd struggle to drink 8 cups of anything in a day! It was so concentrated it stained my lips mouth and tongue bright purpley red! Lovely!! But didn't get a headache like I did from splenda!

Can I ask some advice is there any point starting rePhresh say on CD 12 or to just go for it when I get my smiley or O day as it last 3 days? I won't O until about cycle day 15 or maybe later this cycle as my last cycle was longer.

Maybe you poor thing! Not fun at all.

Thanks for temp. Rise everyone, just wondered if the rise happens straight after ovulation, so if I were to ovulate at 5am and took temp at 6am if the temp would show. Holiday has been lovely but had horrid ov pains for most of it, just like throbbing and tenderness - I swear I'm going to pop out 5 eggs! Still getting them now but had my strongest opk today much darker than the test line so just hope ov comes overnight so I feel back to normal tomorrow. Hope everyone is good, will catch up on posts when home as hard to get it all on my phone

I would use it every 3 days after AF (or starting now!) so your body is accustomed to it by the time of your attempt. Are you just having one attempt and when will that be? I would try not to use it too close to your attempt because obviously want to get pregnant!

Hugs Maybe, that is sad about your friend. You will definitely meet new mums when you have your new little one, you just can't help linking up with others with babies the same age, there are some lovely mums out there waiting for you And of course I'm always free for a coffee when you fancy!

I'm curious ladies.. i asked indigoviolet about it and i thought i'd ask on here as well. I'm planning to send my secret santa tomorrow and i was wondering if we're supposed to say who it's from or if it truly is a "secret" santa??

Maybebaby ~ i'm so sorry to hear your friend has moved so far away it's truly horrible to live far away from your friends.. i'm quite shy and also look like a 12 year old so i always find it very difficult to meet new friends since no one wants to really talk to what looks like a young teenage mum, sporting a bump and snort marks on her trousers
You seem to be very organised with your hospital bag? I've just finished packing mine, never had one packed in time for labour before

Lavenderlime ~ crystal light is dangerous stuff! lol even if you mix it properly it still stains terribly.. i always had a purple "crystal tash" and purple fingers from mixing the stuff.. makes you wonder what on earth is in it :S
sorry i can't be of much help I didn't use Rephresh as it's recommended on here.. i stuck with Aci gel and used a small amount of rephresh as lube to help with bd. I applied a fingertip of aci gel every morning week of ov.

Chocolate ~ good luck with your attempt! fivetuplets would be cute

Babymad ~ good to hear you're not as sick anymore! you've not had it easy with the MS!

Thank you Zanacal will def start tonight then.

Sunset I actually really like it minus the staining! tastes like Ribena. God knows what they put in it I was really shocked when I saw it turn so dark from that small amount of powder :O

DS1's main present arrived today a DSlite I'm a bit of a plastic toy scrouge as you all know (don't worry I have got them some plastic tat but also some wooden toys to balance it out!!)

Anway ds1 is really into playing games on dp's Iphone as we don't have any games consols in the house.
So we decided to get him a dslite we got it for a great deal of £65 including postage and the seller offered a game card with 80 games on it for £20!!! So a massive bargain as a single cheap game starts at about £12.

Here's a link to 60 of the 80 games View image: yhtac9699 062 that it came with. plus View image: XTRA

It arrived today and is as stated. Took a week to arrive from Japan. If anyones interested I can link to the seller. Just such a good deal had to share it with some boy mums!

Sunset, I wrote 'santa' on mine! Also should we say when they arrive, so the person knows they got there ok???

Sunset, my ds1 had HFM yrs ago and I didn't get it, so FX I won't as I read some horrible things about abnormalities due the virus being passed thru the placenta, so gonna mention to my consultant on tues. Can't believe it's only 2 sleeps!! Keep getting txt from my SIL and friends saying will u tell us on tues", my answer... "No, we have decied to let the boys tell everyone after the scan in Jan, only fair they know 1st" they are prob a bit disappointed, but tough!! I'm sure your little princess is just fine, but I'm now gonna worry about this damn HFM!! so can undertand you must be a bit worried. She'll be perfect!! Being well looked after in there!! x

Maybe, my BF moved to London, around 400 miles too and I miss her so much! She has been gone for 18mths and I have been down once to see her. Her mum lives nearby, so she's up a few times. Last time I saw her I told her I was pg, around 5wks pg!
