Hi lovely girls!
Awwwwwwww Kirril! That picture made me cry, not in upsetting wise persnally but as in God only choses the best flowers for his garden, what a beautiful angel she is!

Stiff drinkies Nut! May I try a proper bourbon and coke rather than the tin stuff plz?

DH has ruined me today! Flowers, a can of bourbon and coke! Buggar only the 1! And a chinese!

Love and hugs
Celtic xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Nut
Celtic - But of course... the best Burbon with real coke (not post mix). Unless you prefer post mix. I myself am going for a nice shot of butterscotch schnapps...
AlottaPink
Geez...I'm gone for a day and look what happens. Well I've put DH and DD to bed so now it's time to relax. Would you believe I didn't get one phonecall about my shop today... sad.gif
However, having said that I didn't call to buy it until a Monday so who knows???
Celtic my lovely I'm thinking of you.
Anniversaries are so hard. My first bub was due August 27th and now guess what? My younger brother and fiance are having a baby due this year on Aug 30th. A little virgo bub. I so wanted that baby!!! To make matters worse I don't even think my brother is that keen on the idea. This will be their 2nd child and while he was really happy to let everyone know the news with the first one this time they have not told hardly anyone. I only found out three weeks ago!!! She's like 20 weeks pg! Does anyone else find that strange? That they have just forgot to mention it to anyone in the family.
Anyway, I'm more annoyed at the fact that she looks after DD twice a week and now I've gotta find alternative arrangements. I just think she should have told me a bit sooner so I could prepare, you know?
DH has told me he is taking DD to the beach in the morning so I'm hoping for a sleep-in! Tounge1.gif
DH is a bit cranky atm because I'm over the whole bd thing. For some reason this month I'm just over it. I'm over thinking about whether we'll conceive everytime we bd. I want it to be spontaneous again. Is that wishful thinking???
FWIW - can we have the couch back? I think newcomers would find it cosy. I'm trying to put this into words but it's not happening but if I were reading the thread for the first time with those comments I would think "What a supportive bunch of women inviting each other to sit and chat".... Anyway that's my opinion.
Okay well I think this is long enough and you'll all be gone if I don't hurry up and post. Tounge1.gif

Here is to lots of BFPs this thread!!!

Thats right Celtic - no more raincoats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A little sooner than i expected, so that means i am back on the wagon!!! PMSL at your comments. I am in the race for a Jan bubba - gee hoping my one tube works double time..lol

I will have to pass on the drink tonight. I am so tired, though wont stop me sitting around here for a while...been up and down the ladder all day painting the bathroom, now i have to do the clean up and wash the brushes and rollers :| To make matters worse, wont be able to have a shower tomorrow cos of the new paint and stuff everywhere in the bathroom.

I think any BD is well out of the q atm.

Happy New Thread!!!

Cj - What ever you like m'dear. Nothing is too difficult an order. The Virtual cafe and bar is always open original.gif

So any opinions? It's my Birthday soon (Anzac Day) and we're trying to figure out what to do. Got the usual family thing on Monday and we have no ideas for the Saturday night friends thing... Any hints?
AlottaPink
What about a karaoke night? I lurv karaoke. DH hates it but I would choose that for every party if I had my way.
Speaking of birthdays. DH is 31 in June so I've invited heaps of his friends - some are coming from interstate and I've hired a minibus. DH doesn't drink so instead of doing a pub crawl we're gonna do like a fun crawl. We're going to Infinity in Surfers Paradise (which is like a big maze - scary but fun) then we're going up to Pimpama to do the Zorb Ball. And all DH knows is he's gotta drive the bus.... hahaha!!!

Hi Girls
hoping i can join in...heres a little history Me-32, DH-36. Been ttc#1.. for nearly 2 yrs now, which seems like forever...no luck in 2003. Fell preg March 04, but m/c June 10.5 wks due to blighted ovum...then was preg again Sept 04, but 2nd m/c Nov 04 (my beautiful angel that i so dearly wanted died at 7.5 wks, no heartbeat detected..) so now onto cycle#7 since 2nd loss and am beginning to wonder weather this will ever happen.... Today the wicked witch AF has again reared her Ugly head, Ggrrr :mad: On the positive side I am off to my obgyn on the 28th to see about the next step. DH has not yet been tested. Somehow seem to feel it is my fault, that i have not been able to have a bub that has stuck :-( I am feeling so down in the dumps right now. i am going to ask about iui. Can anyone tell me if they have been though IUI or similar

Kirril- thanks for sharing your story with us **big hugs**

Celtic- talking about drinks..and a 'Wild turkey' for me..yum

cjtato- I am with you totally, the anniversary of losing your precious bub that you so dearly wanted is sooo hard, my 1st would have been due 21st dec last yr, Xmas Really sucked :-( stuff chrissy presents, all i wanted was to hold my precious bub in my arms...I was so upset, it was so hard...To add to that, i should have still been preg at that stage, but had recently had the 2nd m/c :-( i swear it has been such a long hard road, but i hope one day this all will be far behind me . I am not looking forward to 12 june, that is when i would have been due the 2nd time. I have had 2 m/c, I do not want to be put though anymore, pls baby gods, I am a good person and i deserve this, pls give me a baby soon

Hope i havent bored anyone to tears or rambled too much

cheers :-)

Hi Merry

Sorry you've had such a hard time and that it is taking so long for you to fall pg again. We can all relate to feeling down and everyones had a good rambling at least once here so don't appologise for anything.
Leeloo
Gals, gals, gals. I won't say too much on the last thread, just that I really value all of you for the support you provide to me and to each other. I don't know what I would have done had I not found this thread, which probably shows in the fact that I still want to share my travels with you gals even though newly pg, rather than just bumping over to the PAL thread. That said though, I certainly don't want to increase anyone's grief by coming in here - and I don't want to be like the girl who makes us look at her 12 wk perfect baby u/s photos after our recent losses. No, no, no. I don't want to be that girl.
So, here's my proposed solution. I'll post stuff about my pg in the PAL thread, then come in here and chat with you gals for fun/ offer info, or a shoulder to cry on, and pop in a link to the pg info, so those who want to read it can, but if they'd rather not, they don't have to. This way I hope, I can have my cake and eat it too . . . that's greedy I know, but hell, I am greedy.

Kirril - beautiful signature. Just divine.
Celtic - (((((BIGGEST hugs)))))) wish I could give you a real one.
kbear - you bad woman you!
Merry - welcome, and sorry for your lost little ones. I hope your stay is short.
Tanya - hope you get more calls about the shop really soon - maybe Monday??
Nut - maybe beer and bowling? I have to admit I quite like just dinner out at a nice restaurant.
Hi Nai, and everyone else.
Nighty night! Time to go stick the progesterone where the sun don't shine!! It's so glamorous, this baby business.

You were up late last night!!! Must be the pg insomnia kicking in. Thank you for being thoughtful. I am not fussed about pg women posting in here. I think it is nice as it gives us hope that it can and will happen for us.

Hi Lovely girls!

Aw merry, we are sorry that you have joined us but you are very welcome! A few of us are facing aniversaries, they are awful hard to endure. My aniversary of first M/c is april 30th and bubs 2 would have been due May 1st. Never worry about rambling, we all do it! Whoooooooo hoooooooooo Wild Turkey!

CJ magic modular sofa is back! Room has been spring cleaned and a hot line fone installed for real estate calls! Mind you, dont let Kbear ansa after her awful experience with them! I couldn't believe that! Hey Kbear, I just thought of a good use for redundant raincoats! Waterbomb norty real estate peeps!

Kirrill, that Jan bubs is nearly on the production line! Merry, Kirrill is going through something similar so she can point you in the right direction for help.

Leah, it doesnt bother me at all! Actually, if you dont come in I will come and find you! That would be scary! Way to go with the progesterone.

Oh nut my DH got me a bottle of that for Chrissy, it is so scrummy! You could go bowling, then a nice dinner then Karoke! Then you could collapse on comfy sofa and we split a bottle of Butterscotch!

Oh Kirril, I forgot! I was asking about anti-m for georgi. I have never heard of it. I looked it up on the web but it was all a bit techno babble. Talking of that, how are you Georgi? I know that you were going on Friday evening, sending u love and hugs.

Love and hugs

Good morning everyone!

Kbear - Thank you for organising a new thread. It was a great idea. And congrats on being back to TTC this month! Scary, but exciting! I hope you get to have a shower soon in your newly painted bathroom so that the BD fest can get underway!

Leah - Great to *see* you original.gif. Keep popping in here! Hope the progesterone pessaries are increasing your levels as they should. Good Luck!

Nut - Dinner and dancing would be my night of choice. The music would have to be good, though! Any good local bands playing?

Merry - Hello and welcome. Sorry to hear of your two losses. I hope that you enjoy your stay here (hopefully it will only be a short one, IYKWIM) and lean on us for support. original.gif My first Angel Baby would have been a December bub, too, and Christmas was absolutely HIDEOUS. Hopefully we will all be pg again by Christmas 2005.

Tanya - Sorry to hear that nobody called regarding the shop yesterday. I really hope that it sells soon, but more than that, I hope you get your BFP soon. xo

Celtic - Will be in touch. Hope your head isn't too sore today - looks like you all had a bit of a party in here last night! original.gif

Kirril - Your pic of Ella is just gorgeous. You are not just a biased Mummy - she IS beautiful. And aren't you clever being able to post a pic like that? I've got no idea how to do that kind of thing - it was a headache just trying to figure out how to get my sig and ticker up and running in the first place! I have all my fingers and toes crossed for you. C'mon little embies! Lots of healthy ones, okay? Good Luck, Sweetie. xo

Simone - *This is going from memory from the last thread*, but have fun on the social front for the next few weeks! Make sure you conserve your energy for other things, too! wink.gif

A Big 'Hi!' to Melly, Oakey, Georgi (((hugs))), and anyone else I have missed!

Love and hugs to all,

I like dinner and bowling though it seems that I do not know too many bowling enthusiasts... makes it hard to get a good game *sigh*

As for Karaoke... I don't do Karaoke... I will go watch and laugh but never do. I know my reasons are pretty stupid, but everyone who has actually heard me sing seem to think that I am pretty good and are always trying to get me to do it and I fear getting up there and being a big flop. Stupid coming from someone who use to do Standup comedy hey...

Kbear - Positive thoughts to your one tube! A friend of my sister fell pg accidently some 3 weeks after her ectopic. We'll be rooting for you original.gif

Leah - Good to see you posting. It's one thing to see people around us going through their pg's and rubbing it in but seeing one of our own happy and pg is more hope inspiring I think.

Celtic - Hogs breath Mudslide... now that is a drink! $10 for one but it is worth every cent. By the way I forgot to comment on this before... you had DS on a beanbag? How was that?

Nai - No decent bands that I know of. Dancing could be interesting. Perhaps I could see if one of those group tango lessons are running and take everyone out for that... I have done a little ballroom/latin dancing before but had to give it up for lack of money...

Kirril - How are you feeling at the moment? Everything going to plan?

Hi everyone,

Thread #46 already - I sure hope it's a lucky one for all of us.
Nut - you're another lovely Taurean? Happy birthday for Anzac Day! I'm a young 36 on the 27th, and planning to have a quiet dinner with DP at our favorite restaurant.
Celtic - hello love. No bourbon for me, I'm a single malt or wine girl (I work in the trade so no choice). I used to work in a pub many years ago and got drenched in Jim Beam and Jack Daniels after every shift - I can't stand the smell of it now.
Merry - a big welcome. This is a great place for comfort, solace and a bit of a laugh every now and then.
Kbear - you're back on the ttc wagon now? Go spermies!!!
Kirril - fingers and toes crossed for your eggies. I love your picture of Ella. Thanks for your info about antibodies, I'm going to get proper testing done this time so will see what that brings.
Tanya - best of luck for selling your shop. Are you getting out of the flower business altogether?
Hi to Nai, and our good friends next door and everyone else I've missed.
As for me, I had my first obs appt on Friday evening, and she was great. I know we're not supposed to mention obs names due to libel etc, suffice to say that if anyone is looking for a female ob in Frankston, she's your girl. I came out of there feeling reassured that I'm going to be looked after. She did want to repeat a scan this week - just in case - and pointed out the 2nd m/c being very bad luck, but listened and approved me wanting genetic tests done and is prepared to do a d&c so this can be done. She wasn't positive about the fact that although my HCG levels are still high, my symptoms are decreasing. Sorry for TMI. Anyway, apart from the awful shock after the first scan, I've resigned myself and feeling OK. Thanks again for all your warm wishes.
I'm off to buy some more plants for the garden now - it's glorious outside!

Hello All...
(yes I have returned to EB)...
I spent heaps of time in this thread after my 2nd m/c in sept04...
Then I took some time out of anything to do with babies...
I am a bit like "Newtothis" in that I dont want to cause anyone anymore heartache than they have been through already, but I would like to say please hang in there and I hope you all get BFP very soon...
We recently got a BFP after TTC for 6 cycles...
But we do know we have a long way to go...
Roll on christmas...
I shall pop in from time to time if I am allowed...

Hi Lovely girls!
Warning! I have answered BEAn bag ?. Do not read if TMI! X0X
Georgi! Lovely to hear from you, I was getting worried. Life suxs on times, I really wish that you were not in here but at least you are getting some good treatment and care from your OB. She sounds lovely.
Wow 2 birthday girls this month! We will have to have a party! The bar is getting pretty well stocked!
Nai thats brill! Look forward to it!

KBear, dont work to hard! Enjoy Bunnings!
**** ansa to bean bag*
Nut, mud slings? That sounds interesting. The bean bag! hee hee! I had a moment of blind panic when I was having my son and insisted on going to the bathroom, even though Diane said it was ok it was just my waters, soz if TMI lovely girls. Anyway she half carried me there and I just made it back when I collapsed on the floor, she shoved me on to a bean bag and Tom arrived! She said she didnt know about my back I nearly broke hers! She was also panicking that I would have literally had a water birth, fishing Tom out of the loo! They have actually put a note on my file that I am too quick 3rd stage so do not let her go to the bathroom!*

Right I think that we ought to have a roll call on bithdays! We got 2 Taureans, 25th and 27th april!
I am a Virgo, 8th september! Whose in between?

Actually the only time I have sang on Karoke was on my birthday when I was in France! I thought I was the bees knees belting out Hey Big Spender! My mates taped me, what a caterwaul! Thank goodness only a few peeps knew me! Never drinking that pernod stuff ever again!

Love and hugs

Celtic - Mudslide is basically like an ice chocolate but with about 6 shots of alcohol... Booze mixed with Chocolate sauce, milk and topped with whipped cream and chocolate powder... divinity at it's best! You can barely taste the alcohol and can be absolutely sloshed before you know it if you're not careful. As for beanbag birth... I dunno... sounds like It could be comfortable (as far as births go) actually...

Hugs - Congrats on the BFP! Of course you're allowed to pop in.

Georgi - Yep, another lovely Taurean... Stubborn as hell original.gif
Celtic
hugs! Oh congratulations! I am so pleased for you both!
Wheeeeeeee Heeeeeeeeee a lovely new thread and BFP NO1!!!!!!!!!!!

Gosh, I dont mind you being here, its so lovely to hear good news!

It has got very chatty in here over the last couple of days.

Celtic: pmsl at the water bombs. When we have open for inspection I am going to sit on my roof behind the tree and pelt the agent if her turns uyp for a sticky beak!!

Nai: just thought we neeed a new one. The bathroom is nearly done and i have to go an clean it now and wash up all the paint stuff.....grrr. I have to got to Mums for a shower tonight. DH is paving the backyard. So i dont know about any BD tonight......zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Nut: what ended up with the friend? I was told three months and it is 3 months next Wed!!!!!Uh oh, naughty naughty. I would have a nice dinner and a movie fo your birthday.

Merry: i have to do the grocery shopping. School is back tomorrow and i dont have much for lunches. I will be visiting Coles later.

Georgi: I have been here for 23 threads now!!!!! I am glad that you have found a nice ob. I have heard that some of the male obs down that way can be rotten and so arrogant. When are you having the d/c and are you having an u/s beforehand? When do you leave for O./S?

hugs: Welcome back and Congratulations again. great news. We joined EB at about the same time!!!

Hello to Leah, Simone and all the others I have missed.
I have to go and clean up all the paint stuff now. The thing I hate about painting is the mess. Hopefully tonight i may get some BD in, though knowing what we have done this weekend i doubt it.

I have also made a post about live chat in EB it is in the messages to moderators and admin thread. Last night a couple of us went into the TTC chat in FF and had a good time, so thought that it would be good if we had it here!!! anyway just a thought.

Cheers

Just a quick one from me tonight or DH will hit the roof!!! Well, I got my sleepin yayyyy!!! Until 9am!!! That's the first time in a long time. I also got a call about the shop today so hopefully that will not be the last. I think there are at least 2 interested parties now and I only need one to buy it so fingers crossed this will happen sooner rather than later. I just looked at the calendar and realised it's only 3 weeks until mothers day. ugh! I am actually getting someone else to work it for me as friends of ours that play in a band are playing in Melbourne at the Espy so we're heading down south for the weekend to catch up with friends. I just can't believe it's so close!
I've spent today up the mountain at my sil's tupperware party. I'm having a party in a fortnight. We're having a c*cktail party - should be fun. I'm actually thinking about joining as a demonstrator??? We'll see how my sil goes first.

Okay girlies I'm off. Sorry I can't stay on the couch this evening but there's another couch getting cold over here. Talk soon. Hope you all have a fabulous week!!!

Hi Ladies,

Have been stuck at home all weekend with my silly computer that won't let me post! Oh well, I have a bit of catching up to do!! I think I'll focus on the new thread original.gif

Kirril - love the new sig, just gorgeous! Good luck this round, I hope its a BFP and sticky to follow.

Celtic - seriously, this imaginary sofa has been a comfort (and a great laugh). Thinking of you as the anniversarys come along, such a hard time.

Nut - mud slings sound divine! Might just have to try (a version) of that while AF is visiting! Happy bday for next week... is the comedy festival still on? That could be fun (actually, I can't remember if you're in melbourne or not!) Then again, seeing as you are a stand-up comedian I guess you probably have thought of that!!

kbear - OMG!!! How exciting!! Good luck, positive vibes are sent your way original.gif I'm also in the race for a jan babe (seeing as I didn't get a christmas one, I'm going for an australia day baby!!). Your chat idea is great.

cjtato - Good luck with the shop! You are right, you only need one person to buy it.

merry - So sorry to hear about your loss. And isn't it a downer when AF arrives! Hope your obgyn has some answers for you next week.

Leah - I'm glad you are sticking around, its good to hear the progress of the BFP! Hope the progestorone helps, isn't it delightful the things you have to do (but its worth it original.gif)

Georgi - Its so reassuring to have a great Ob. Hope you had a lovely day in the garden!

hugs - Yay for the BFP !!! sticky vibes galore coming your way.

Hi to Nai, Mandy, Simone, anyone else I have missed...


Had a weird weekend - on friday night went for dinner with a friend who is pregnant, and we had the same due date... I wouldn't call this friend one of my closest, but we are good friends. Anyway, this is the first time I have seen her and her hubby since we lost our baby, and it was really weird - I didn't sit there thinking "that should be me being really fat and gorgeous and pregnant" but I really wanted to talk about the fact we were meant to be having babies at the same time, but now we aren't. I didn't bring up the subject, neither did they. It just felt weird and surreal, and I was saying "Yay you are having a baby" and inside it was tearing my heart out.

On the up side, I have been enjoying AF as much as possible - lots of strong coffees and alcohol... and I went to a lingerie party last week so hubby look out *wink wink* !!

Have a good week all.

love
ginny.

Ginny - You can actully buy a premade Mud Slide from and bottle shop but it is not half as good! I am in Canberra... believe me I would love to be in Melbourne for the comedy festival... I tried to see if it was possible to get there but alas, money, time, moving house, dogs operations... Last night was the last night for Comfest too... *sigh*... Oh well...

Hi gals,
I think I knew you were in Canberra, Nut. Sometimes when I go to the Fertility Centre (do you go there - at John James?) I wonder if any of the women I see there are those I've shared tears and stories and hugs with on EB. Yet we pass like ships in the night . . . It's so odd . . .
Anyway, to read about me and my 'condition', please go to:

I'm so tired, I'm off to go have a nap, but will come back soon to write some more personal hellos.
Thinking of you all . . . bring on those BFPs!!!
L.xx

Leah - I haven't been there but I have been thinking of going. My GP is happy to give me a referral. Who do you see? I lost the list my GP gave me of the fertility Gynos and their respective phone numbers. I have a feeling I am going to need a little help so if I don't get any indication of anything happening over the next 3 weeks I am going to do something about it.
Celtic
Whoooooo hoooooooooo! Norty celtic is here!
I am feeling much better tonite! I cracked something that might be giving me grief as per the M/c!~ No seriously,,,,,,,,,, not mud slings, vbs, fags etc! But a real problem! It was from a post I read from another thread! These threads really do give food for thought!
Many many years ago, in the dark ages, when I was a young whipper snapper! I needed an op, this op did not stop me getting preggers but I would not carry past 3 months, the tilt of my womb would stop it. I had the op but they did warn me that after pregnancy it could slip again. I HAVE never had it checked, DRRRRRRRRRR! Mind you I had no need to afters Tom"s Dad walked out, just thought that I would be on my own for life! It is a specialist bit with me so normal Drs etc would not pick up on it.
Ty Nut, if it hadnt been for you with the bean bag, I wouldnt have started remembering things!

Love and hugs Ginny, Leah, Kirrill, Mandy, Simone, Kbear, soz bit excited I might be clutching at straws but at least I am doing something!
Love and hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxCeltic xxxxxxxxxxxx
Celtic
OOpsey! Too eggcited, the need of the op would not stop me being preggy but the tilt would. I had a few investigations and I was as fertile as a bunny then, if not worse, I still defy odds now! whhhhhoo wish me luck girls, I am going red as a beetroot thinking of all my important places being investigated again!
Diff when u let them do anything to save baby, this time it is by choice! Does that make sense?

Love and hugs Celtic xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Everyone,

Leah - hello and Congratulations on your BFP I am sooo happy for you and dont mind if you pop back in from time to time. I agree with kbear, it gives us all hope that what you have done, we can do to!!!

Celtic - Thinking of you as the anniversary of your 1st bub draws nearer. I am hoping for a bfp for you real soon. Oh and by the way, I am quite partial to a drop or two of Wild Turkery, just love it, also O.P. Bourbon. Oh almost forgot. I am also a Virgo, 19 September

Nai - sorry to hear that your 1st bub would have been a xmas bub too. December was a sad time for both of us then and yes i hope we all are preg again by the time next Chrissy rolls around, bring on the bfp's I say.

Tanya - I hope you start getting some calls about selling your shop

Pautiric - That Mudslide you described sounds awesome, bottle for me pls...love chocolate and alcohol yum, yum, yum

Georgi - Did you buy those plants and get them planted, the weather was beautiful on sunday. Sounds like you have a good obgyn, they are hard to come by. At least she is doing tests and that will rule certain things out for you. I had basic tests done after 2nd m/c and also sample sent to pathology, all came back normal.

hugs - Congrats on your BFP after TTC for 6 cycles. I am just starting cycle 7 since my 2nd m/c last Nov and getting a bit frustrated as i got preg within 3 months of losing 1st bub. Why is it taking longer this time You and Leah are my inspiration to keep going !!, pls pop in whenever and keep us all updated, you are more than welcome

Kbear - Bunnings... I am so addicted to that place. DH cant keep me away from there. I am always doing stuff about the house. Bought our 2nd house 12mths ago. We sold our old one, this one is bigger, but about 25-30 y.o, so I have a list as long as my arm of things I want to do. DH thinks that alot of them dont need to be done, but it keeps me busy and I enjoy it.

:-) A big Hello to anyone that i have missed. I have been on the pc for too long and need to do a few things before the night gets away on me. Have an orthodontist appointment 1st thing in the morning. Yes I have braces and looking forward to getting them off soon.

Nite Girls

Merry

Evening all,

Just a quickie to give you my update. Second u/s today confirmed the news that I have a blighted ovum (who comes up with these terms - I ask you!) and the ob is not mucking about. D-Day tomorrow. AAaahhhhh! I guess it doesn't give me too much time to dwell on matters. I'm a bit nervous about the whole thing, even through I've been through it before. I had to walk past the maternity ward tonight to pick up my admission forms and some funny tablets to (TMI coming up) "ripen my cervix" and knew I would have one of those babies one day. I just wish that day would come about sooner rather than later - for all of us.
I'll be back tomorrow afternoon for personals.

Hi everyone,
Celtic - It's great that you have remembered this. I hope that this is the start of something good for you. I am a Virgo also, 11th September.

Mandy - how ya feeling? Sounds like you had a good night last night??
hugs and Leah - I don't know if I have congratulated you guys on your BFP's. Anyways loads of sticky vibes to you both!
Ginny & Merry - thanks for the well wishes with the shop.
Georgi - All the best for tomorrow. I don't understand why they use the terms they do either or that they put you in the maternity ward??? Very very cruel!!! Not long until you go on holidays is it?

Well as for me I have had a few more calls about the shop which sound more serious than the first couple so that's a good sign. I've also just got my first website up and running yayyyy! I won't post here due to the sites rules etc but if anyone is interested pm me for the address. I'm also thinking of becoming a tupperware consultant after the shop sells but I'm not 100% sold on this idea yet. sometimes I think it's a great idea and others I'm not so sure IYKWIM?

Well fingers crossed this baby sells sells sells this week! I've sent DH to bed again with no bd in sight the poor thing.

Edited to remove stuff I've already said. Der!!! I had a feeling I had already explained the no bd thing! blush.gif


Anyway sorry for the ramble just had to get that off my chest! Who knows I might feel like jumping on him now! *LOL* :eg:

Okay I'm off to bed. We have swing dancing tomorrow night. I LOVE IT!!! It's so much fun. DH loves it too which is good.

Okay this time I'm really going. Nighty night!!!

Awww my lovely Georgi!
My thoughts and love and care are with you. There is nothing that I can do to stop this, just be with you in thought every step of the way.

I will hold your hand,
As you have held mine.
My grief, glories yours.
It is not my grief this time.
But I feel it.
Some day, this unglorious feeling,
Will be shared!
In the most wonderful way!
Then it will be JOY!
And for that day I hope and pray.

With great love and thoughts
Celtic xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hiya again,
Firstly, georgi girl - yuck, buggar and damn. I'm so sorry you have to go through 'the procedure' again. I will be thinking of you tomorrow. Take care of you. x

Merry - thanks for being welcoming. Yes, EBcan become a big consuming if you're not careful. I like to check every day, even if I don't always post!

Celtic - a new avenue to examine (that could be a bad pun, but not meant that way - LOL!! wink.gif) Good luck girl! Maybe this is it!!! BTW, my b'day is Dec 5 - a Sagitarrian in the mix.

Nut, I'll PM you.

Ginnyk - that dinner must have been odd, but perhaps you and her need to have that talk without the blokes? I finally had dinner last week with the gal who I was in time with for my 1st pg - she was comfortable to mention it when it came up - probably because she'd had a m/c too once upon a time. Onto more positive matters, get into that lingerie girlie!!

Mandy and kbear - you winos you! Don't spill any on Celtic's couch!

kbear you are a domestic goddess - amazing! How do you do it? Hope the BDing is coming along nicely?! No fear!

cjtato - good news about the shop!

Hello to all others I may have missed. Be good.
Luv,
L.xx

Evening all

Just quickly

Celtic; well done, fingers crossed you can be fixed again. As for you getting embarrassed - no privacy or dignity when you have a baby...lol

Leah: I am so tired now - the bathroom looks like crap and i nearly cried over it yesterday. i was exhausted to say the least. I am hoping that i may have o'd already so dont have to worry about the timing the bd!!

Tanya: fingers crossed that you have a buyer for the shop soon.

Georgi: Thinking about you, especially for tomorrow. It is very hard. (((((hugs)))))

Merry: I have spent too much money at Buunings lately. I love Ikea more and spend more money there!!!

ok girls i am yawning away and better get to bed. Holidays are over so back to work in ernest tomorrow. Please keep your fingers crossed for a temp rise for me as i kinda messed up this morning!!!

Ciao
