UK SMOG Wannabes ~ December

[Kell]

Chocolate your dp and mind sound like the same person, we had a massive row last week about how little he does around the house to help me, especially as I started work last week and had college work to do, I needed help and he sat on his arse the whole time and then had the cheek to moan that the house was a mess. I flipped!!
I can't figure out if its that's he's a sexist pig or just pure lazy!
He did get up with the kids today tho which was nice!

We are off to see puss in boots this afternoon! Can't wait to eat lots of I've cream!! lol

Yay sunset! 35 weeks!! Not long now!

Kell, sorry your dp sounds like mine lol, glad you got a lay in though, I did too, didnt get up till 950am!!
And then made OH come food shopping too and put away washing ha ha!

Not long till Christmas!! What are you all doing? We are out Christmas Lunch to a pub with about 14 of us, never done that before but just dont want the hassle of cooking while I have young children, also we need a new cooker as it never cooks quick enough so also waiting for a new one.


Wow Sunset, those weeks will fly by :-)

Must be something in the air because dp has beeen spoiling for an argument all weekend! and I'm too tired to rise to the bait.

Also DP's grandparents rang today saying how 'disgusting' it was that we won't be going to DP's dad's on Christmas day (DP has had Christmas day at his Dad's ever since his parents split when he was about 8). This will be DS1's 5th Christams and the first at home. I just wanted a really chilled, Christmas with no driving, no carting around of toys, watching Christmas telly and staying in pj's until noon.

We live about 25 minutes from DP's dad and his Granparents and we are popping in the day after boxing day. Also they've just had a newborn baby that will be under 2 weeks old on Christmas day so didn't think they'd want the added stress of four other people to feed. Plus I just want to have a go at cooking Christmas dinner even if i'm not going to eat it !

FAMILIES!!!

Still no smiley but not losing hope until CD 20 as my last cycle was 34 days instead of 27. Probably a good thing as don't think I could have brought myself to DTD with DP in his mood!!

I got all the presents wrapped last night after work and realised that it looks a little sparse so off to get some more stocking filler bits for the boys tomorrow. 7 days to go!!

[Kell]

Mmmmm Mississippi mud ice cream is yummy! Even if the film wasn't all that it was worth it for the ice cream lol!

Chocolate, dp got up with the kids and made me a nice bacon and egg sandwich for breakfast, then took us to the cinema so he's actually been a good boy today! He's off work with the kids tomorrow as well so should be a little appreciation coming my way soon! Lol

[littlemisswilko]

LOL I'm a vegetarian so it's not that big of a deal really, The best part of a roast/Christmas dinner to me used to be roast potatoes but I'm completely traumatised by any kind of potato now lol! The only thing i'll miss over Xmas are the Cadbury's roses! The toffee ones are my favourite and I could eat them all day!

Well My DP isn't doing much to help my sway but is abstaining. He has been for 9 days now and don't think he'll play along for much longer. My CM is very creamy with a little stretch so I think this means OV is just around the corner (hopefully) and it should change to watery and stretchy soon.

I really need some advice,

So I was wondering weather I should go for a cut off and O+12 although I know it won't be a true O+12 because I would have already had an attempt. Sunset I know you did a combo. I just don't want to waste the abstaining? Then maybe frequent release until O+12

Also my opks are really driving me insane I didn't even have a faint line on a cheapie when I tested earlier. And with the creamy CM so i'm thinking i've missed O AGAIN (second time to panic in one cycle).... god I was so chilled about this when I was tracking my cycles and It wasn't all for real. I know OPKs fade in and out but geesh.

So what do you all think?

[charlieispy]

Hey ladies x

been busy and tired sorry not been on x hope you are all ok x sorry alot of you are having family issues or have had - i think xmas brings it up even more as you are meant to see family etc x DH dad is completely rubbish doesnt bother with dh or our kids, my mum is brill, my MIL is pretty good for babysitting for about an hour lol and my dad is ok but his GF I absolutely hate so thats always fun. I have to face DH dad and stepmum on xmas eve....i have already warned him i am tired and hormonal i wont be holding back if they are rude or bitchy to me i have no time for them anymore they have none for DH or my boys who they should be proud of and yet show no interest what so ever. Anyway

GOOD LUCK swayers lavender no xmas dinner - i bow to your greatness i would never manage that x Deaks are you swaying too?? GOODLUCK

[littlemisswilko]

hope you have a nice time at the theatre charlie! hope you get some time to rest!

i was in exactly the same dilema as you lavender on wether to do a combo or just a 0+12. my plan was to just do 0+12 as i didnt want waste abstinance and then try for a o+16. But obviously i never managed to sway for this pg. hope you figure out what is best for you

[Sunset]

Wow there's alot of family drama going on at the moment! such a shame as it's christmas time but like charlieispy said, christmas probably brings it out even more.

Lavenderlime ~ I don't believe much in timing methods which is why I decided to do a combo and also because I wanted to try and get as many attempts in as possible to increase my chances of pregnancy. We did abstaining up until my first attempt and then frequent until o+12

Charlieispy ~ hope you have a good time at the theatre i've definitely started stocking up on the pink bits I feel really terrible but a friend dropped of a bag of her kids gender neutral baby stuff the other day and I didn't want to hurt her feelings so I accepted the bag, but to be honest the last thing in the world I want is gender neutral stuff this time... i've been team green twice already so if anything I have ALOT of white and creams already.. i'm really embarrassed to say, but half the stuff has gone in a charity bag
