The pregnancy - June 30th 2013

Sorry it's been a few days.

Friday was the usually things apart from little one had his 3rd set of jabs cried more then he did the time before, had a little temp rise and got a little restless nothing much really. In the afternoon, well late afternoon early evening I had to take some photos for my sister's prom. which would have been ok if my camera was not so slow and took better images, as in colour wise, its just dull. Had a late night as it meant we didn't get in till gone 10 I think it was.

Saturday. I went to see a friend that I hadn't seen in a while, so we had a good chat, in the afternoon we went to hubby's parents, also went to toys r us to get some cotbed bedding ready for when little one goes in his own room this week. We also did some food shopping not a lot though as we had to go to hubby's aunts as well so we didn't get in till quarter to 11 last night

Today.
Got woken up at 8 which was great. little one had a bottle and then went back to sleep so I feel asleep then didn't wake up again till 10 past 11. Went to hubby's parents again this afternoon, as we always do on a sunday, plus his cousin was going to be there with her little one. So cute, she has the cute chubby baby checks as well, We went to Tesco to get a baby monitor, but had to order it has they don't keep that sort of thing in our store, so have to pick that up on Tuesday after 4pm. Which is fine as hubby doesn't get in till about half 5, so wouldn't be able to get it before hand anyway. Got in today just after 9. Was meant to upload some photos for my sister but can't be bothered as I need to edit some of them plus hubby is playing battlefield 3 online and don't fancy making him lag.

Tomorrow I am meant to be going over one of the ladies I go to baby group with, I think that's still happening.
Down to the pregnancy part of the blog
sickness has not been to bad, I have heaved a few times and felt sick but apart from throwing up in my mouth apart half an hour ago it's not been to bad.
Backache has not been to bad either, a bit sore today but that's about it.
A little cramping, but nothing painful.
Have been quite tired, but I have a thing where I find it really hard to sleep before 11pm, if I do I wake up feeling worse then I did before I had a nap.

Hello
Well didn't post yesterday as I thought I'd have loads of posts with pretty much nothing on them.

Ok so yesterday an old work friend of mine came over, it was the first time I had seen her since she left. We both feel pregnant with in a month of each other, mine was from using conceive plus hers from IVF. Although we got pregnant a month a part there is 2 months between her little one and my little one. Mine being the older one of the 2 and being early.

nothing else really happened yesterday, see why I waited to post an extra day. :)

My little one has been pretty clingy the last few days, making doing anything quite difficult. So yet again I have not really done anything.
Was meant to go to baby club this morning but nether of the ladies I go with were going. A good thing really as I did not feel up to going. I was far to tired.

My little one has his last set of jabs tomorrow before his 1 year ones. I hate seeing him have them done. I hate seeing him cry in pain. I hope he is going to be ok after them, I have to take some photos for my sister's prom.

well another short thread, well tomorrow is going to be busy so maybe i'll have more to write about.

The pregnancy - June 25th 2013

Hello

This is morning I went to the doctors and got my pregnancy confirmed. My doctor put me at 5 weeks 3 days as they have to go my last period. They can't got by ovulation because using OPKs doesn't tell exactly when you ovulated only that you might. I have my first midwife appointment all booked for July 18th, the day before my birthday. It's going to be a long one as it's a booking appointment and they have to take so many details. When I was pregnant with my little one, the appointment took over an hour. I was so glad I booked that day off work, it would have meant I would have been late.
I remember the first time I threw up when I pregnant with my son. It was as we were pulling into the car park of the hospital for my 12 week scan. I was so glad that I had brought a plastic bag with me. Seeing my baby made me feel so much better, even if I did get sent away to go and get something to eat and drink.

That's a point I need to get something to drink, A nice orange juice should do the trick.

mmmm nice and cold.

Apart from my appointment this morning and going into Wilkos I have not actually done much, Gave the living room a week tidy but that's about it.

As tomorrow it Wednesday I don't usually do anything so i'm not sure if it's worth writing everyday when all my days are pretty much the same thing. Saying that I might do just because it gives me something to do for all of 5 minutes, not even that most of the time.
I think I will join my hubby and play worms 2.

see ya 

The pregnancy - June 24th 2013

Good afternoon ladies and gents (if any) :).
Today has not been too bad, I went over to a another mummy's house, one of the ladies I go to baby club with. We had a good chat.
I took a walk to Tesco as I fancied some pasta, with spring onions and tomato puree. Needed something else I found it quite bland.
It hasn't been overly warm today, which is good, although cloudy we have had some sunshine.

So I signed up to countdown my pregnancy when I was pregnant with my son. I've entered my dates for this pregnancy and it's come up saying I am 5 weeks 1 day. I'm pretty sure I am actually 4 weeks 3 days as I ovulated later in my cycle. I have doctors tomorrow so I think they will work it out then.
Ok so today my nausea has not been too bad, neither has my backache, I have been getting cramps though, but I had that in my last pregnancy and they are not painful or anything so I know it's normal.

Painted my nails for the first time in a while, I think for the first time since I was half way through my pregnancy with my son.

 nothing thing to add to the list of symptoms for today sore boob.

Although today has been a little different from my usual Mondays I don't really have a whole lot to say. So on that note enjoy the rest of your day, if your day has just started enjoy your day. if you are just of to bed good night.

The pregnancy - June 22nd 2013

Ok so it was another early morning today, had to go to my parents this morning to tell them the good news, and then this afternoon hubby's brother, his dad and his uncle went go karting, while me my little one, hubby's mum hubby's sister and her little all went down to their local town.
It was a fun afternoon, I picked up my vitamins, My little one got a few toys from his nanny, Nausea set in big time today. Made it pretty hard to eat anything. Did a food shop this evening and got home and released we hadn't actually picked up anything lunchy for me to have during the week.

Tonight is meant to be where the moon is at it's closest point to the earth only can't really see it as it's too damn cloudy last time I saw it, I had left my phone at home so couldn't get a picture of it.
These legs cramps are doing my head in. All day on and off I have been getting them, No idea what to do to help ease them or make them not come at all.
This is a late one so it's a very short one tonight as I am pretty tired and all I want to do is sleep, so on that note night all  

The pregnancy - June 21st 2013

Had to make a few phone calls today, one to clearblue to say I can no longer do the trail and the other to my doctor to get an appointment to get my pregnancy confirmed. Last night I did a digital test. I loved seeing that word come up "pregnant 1 - 2" which makes me 4 weeks pregnant. So it is early days, but i'm just so excited. I know it means all the leg cramps start again along with my backaches being worse but it will all be worth it.

I really don't have much to say today, not a lot happened other having to make a few phone calls. My phone is playing up, it won't receive texts, not that anyone texts me anyways.

Well symptoms for 4 weeks
Nausea - been feeling pretty I get hungry but every time I go to eat I feel sick again, heaved once because hubby's breath stunk
Increased hunger - been feeling pretty hungry, had to eat little and often because I keep feeling sick
Backache - no surprise
Tired - Well that's a given when being pregnant and looking after a baby. got to be easier then being pregnant and looking after a toddler.

That is actually it for today, Like I said I really don't have much to say, Should be posting tomorrow, hoping not to get back late.

The Pregnancy - June 20th 2013

Firstly I like to mention that I don't find it funny having someone trying to hack my account and log in as me. Luckily I had been informed that someone attempted to log in to my account. The funny thing is the person that did it is in a completely different country. Not even in the UK. Luckily the person had success. I don't understand why people find the need to hack someone else's account or trying to log in to someone else's account.

Right now that I had that off my chest. If you come to my blog often you might have noticed the change in the post name. Like I said yesterday, I would be doing a boots own brand test. Well I did it, and apart of me thought that it would come out negative, but it didn't it came out positive. Because it took so long to fall pregnant with my son I really thought it would take a while this time round. This was our first month actively trying, and I'm pregnant. We are going to my in-laws when hubby gets in from work, We aren't telling them, instead we are going to let them figure it out. I have made my little one a t-shirt that says "waiting for my playmate" and see if they figure it out from there.

The pregnancy part of the post
3 weeks 6 days
Got a positive on 2 different tests
Nausea - Think that was because I was hungry and had not had anything to eat.
Increased apatite - been feeling a little more hungry today
Craving - fruit I just want some grapes and strawberries but we have none in the house, so I had a pizza instead.
Backache - We as you may know I suffer from backaches anyway so there's no surprise there   

I'm hungry again so i'm going to find something to eat, not that we actually have a lot of lunchy stuff in the house.

The trying - June 19th 2013

Hello any readers :)

Its really warm and muggy here in the south of England.
Yesterday I told myself I would not test, testing is driving up the wall. Well as anyone who is a test addict, I could not help myself. This is the result I got.

 

The top one was from yesterday 11dpo. The middle one from this morning using FMU and the bottle one from this afternoon. The lines look darker in person and I can see them getting darker. I really hope these are not evaps or false positives even though all the lines have shown up in the time limit.

 

So on the note of pregnancy tests I am now going on to the TMI part of my blog, oh yea i'm not going to change the trying to pregnancy until I get a positive result on a different test.

Anyway Today is cycle day 32. I am 12dpo. Have not checked my cervix and CM is a little like a creamy lotion.

Symptoms for 12dpo

Backache - I get it most days makes no difference really

Tired - Had my little wake up at 5 for a bottle this morning and again at 8. so pretty tired today.

Nausea -  Quite a few times today I have had to stop where I am because I felt like I was actually going to be sick, some food is making me feel sick as well.

Skin break out - I have the biggest spot right next to my nose, not had a spot like that in a while

Oily skin - I'm not sure if it because it is warm or not but I skin has been more oily today then it has been over the last few days.

 

As I have not gone out today not much has happened. Pretty much the usually stuff, get up, get dressed, feed little. watch a it of tv, feed little, wait for him to fall asleep do some house work.

Pretty much the same thing everyday. 

Its Wednesday so not much happens anyway.

 

I am hoping tomorrow I can change the the trying up the top the the pregnancy.  So if you want to find out come back tomorrow and you'll see :)

The trying - June 18th 2013

Views seem to be falling, I must be getting boring haha.
Anyway almost forgot to do my post today. Little one got weighed today he's now 10lb 9oz. He's getting there, He's still on 5oz bottles, but the health visitor says as long as his gaining weight then it's fine.

Actually managed to do a fair bit of house work today, little one slept the whole time, well most of it. managed to tidy the kitchen and clean the sides, sorted out some washing and put a load on. It was when I was folding the washing that he decided he's wake up and  want to play.
He is now currently sleeping with his arms in the air.

So now the TMI part of the blog.
I am 11DPO, my CM has increased again but my temps have gone down again. This morning is was 36.7. Cervix I actually checked it is high firm and closed. but not due on for another 3 days and I have no idea what its meant to feel like before AF or for pregnancy.
Symptoms for 11DPO
Backache - Not as bad as it has been but still pretty saw
Nausea - Only when I had a stake slice earlier and a little bit now.
Cramp - Some feel a little like AF the one I am currently feeling is in my right ovary area and feels like a pinching feeling
CM - increased and creamy

Pregnancy test are still coming up a faint positive although they show in the time limit I fairly sure they are evaps because of that I am giving testing a break tomorrow, or at least try to.  

The trying - June 17th 2013

Feeling down today, but before I get to today lets start with the weekend.

Saturday -  we helped hubby's mum with the food shop, but not before going to Morrison's to get his sister the new iron madden beer. That afternoon me hubby's parents and hubby's sister went into waterlovile  had a subway and got myself a top for a wedding in august. Only going to the evening do as hubby has work that day.

Sunday - nothing different really, it was father's day, so we went to my parents my brother has finally met my little boy. Only taken 15 weeks. apart from that it was the usual sunday stuff.

Right today. So last night I did a pregnancy test I didn't look at it until about half hour after I did, kinda forgot about it as I was playing candy crush. When I looked at the test I could see a second line, I asked hubby if he could see it too, and he could. Did another test this morning looking at it with in the time limit this time. I could see something as the test was drying, but I couldn't be to sure the line is so faint. I keep looking at it thinking these tests (pardon my language) are shit. I have been getting what I think are coloured evap lines. Not what you want to see when you are hoping it won't take another 2 years to fall pregnant, Gosh this blog would go on for awhile if it did. We are going to give it one more cycle after this one before using conceive plus again if I don't fall pregnant before hand.
i'm hoping we won't have to use it.

Ok now the TMI part of the post,
Today is cycle day 30, and 10dpo. Have not yet checked my CM although seems to be between creamy and dry. have not checked my cervix
Symptoms for today so far
Backache - well that's a given
Cramps - kinda feels like that start of AF pains :(
Nausea -  felt quite sick this morning thought I was actually going to throw, starting to feel sick now saying that.
Tender boobs - boobs hurt a little when my little one layed on them this morning.
Oily skin - hating the oily skin, please go away.

I think that is it, I now have 3 to 4 days before AF arrives i'm hoping she dose not so I can move on to the pregnancy part of the blog, but we have  4 days at the most before we find out.  

The trying - June 14th 2013

Hi
Although little one slept pretty much through the night it was a shame it wasn't in his mosey basket he decided that mummy was more comfy. He woke at 6am for a bottle and then we both went back to sleep till about half 9.
Had to post a letter to a friend of mine who is currently living in Australia. £3.50 it cost to send it which is not actually that bad seeing though its the other side of the world, and by plane it takes 26hours to get there.

As nothing has really happened today (dose it ever) I am now moving on to the TMI part of my thread. I do often wonder if I should label as TMI, I know some people are easily grossed out and some really could not care.
So today I am 7dpo
I did a test knowing that the chances of it being negative are very high, anyway I did and a second line appeared, the only problem was it had no colour so I can't count it as a positive. I am however hoping that this is the start of one, I posted it on baby and bump to see what other ladies thought.
I've never had a test do this. I could kinda understand if it was after the time limit but it wasn't it was well with in. Anyway I am going to test everyday until AF turns up or I get a really big fat positive.
Ok so 7dpo and my symptoms for the day
Temp - rise, think yesterday may well have been implantation (if I am pregnant)
Backache - again with the backage
Cramps - very light cramps
Travel sick - the last time I had travel sickness I was pregnant with my son.
Dizzness - I got really dizzy at the car park in Tesco this evening
Headache - only slightly
Oily skin - hating the oily skin.
Spot break out - not just on my face but my back as well.

I think that is actually it for today. Hubby says we can have a movie night so now just waiting on him to come upstairs with the dvd. Night all   

The trying - June 13th 2013

Hi blog readers

the weather today is so much better then it was yesterday, the sun is actually shining. I heard today that some places in Canada and US have warnings for a tornado, I hope its not going to be too bad.

Went to baby group today, well it is Thursday, baby group wasn't bad it went really fast. Had to have the dreaded cervix screening this afternoon, oh my it was like getting the passerine all over again. Apart from that not much has happened today. My little one has learnt how to kick his blanket off.

Keep telling myself I need to start doing some sort of exercise other then walking. I want to lose my belly flab. Then I think whats the point if I want to get pregnant again, but then I was thinking last night, if I don't exercise then I might not have a tidy bump like I did with my little one, so i'm doing an exercise dvd, its one of the 10 minute ones, it has 5 sets on it all 10 minutes each. At the moment i'm only doing one at a time, I thought it would be better to ease myself into it rather do the whole lot in one go and straight off.

Ok so now that I don't have much to say about anything else, it's time for the TMI part of the blog.
Today I am cycle days 26. I am either 6 or 7dpo, most my charts say 6, i'm going with that for the blog.
Ok, So today CM was still a little creamy although CM was not as much as yesterday it's still a little more then usual. I know it's far to early for testing but as I have loads of internet cheapies I thought why not, and as you may have guessed it was negative. My temp has dropped to 36.7. I am hoping its implantation, Not sure if that can cause a drop in temperature, will have a look in a bit.
Ok so symptoms for 6dpo
Backache - no surprise there again.
Oily skin - my skin feels more oily then usual, like being a teenager again.
Cramps - yet more today, not as bad as yesterday though which is a good thing I hope.
Nausea -  although I didn't wake up feeling sick I did feel a little sick this afternoon.


that's it for today. I can't think of anything else to say. so until tomorrow. oh and if you are in the areas that have weather warnings stay safe.

Hello :)

I saw something pretty strange when I was walking back from the shops in the rain this afternoon.
A man got off a bus and put his umbrella up, I didn't really take much notice until he started walking, I noticed that he had a massive hole in his umbrella. At first I thought why would you use an umbrella with a hole in it, specially one with a hole that big when he came closer it looked like the hole was actually a zip. How a zip would work on an umbrella I don't know, so I thought I must have been seeing things. Seeing that umbrella got me thinking, in one sense its actually a pretty good idea, it was one of those big ones I must add, but then I thought what if the rain was going in the opposite direction to what you are walking. The hole in the umbrella would be pointless you'd get wet.

You have love British weather. You can have the sunniest day, not a cloud in the sky and the next day it could rain all day. Before I left for the shops it was only spitting, thought ok I don't mind walking in this. Got to the end of my road and it started getting heavier and heavier. Yeah I got soaked. We as a nation complain a lot about the weather, but I don't think anyone has actually stopped to think about all the other countries weather. For example you guys in the USA, your weather is so much harsher then us in the UK. You get such a mixture of weather, massive hail stones, huge storms, tornados and more. Canada for example I'm pretty it was last year had quite a bit of snow, can't quite remember how much but I remember hearing it was a lot and seeing photos of it.

Right now is the TMI part of the blog,
Today is CD 25, I am 5DPO
I did test, I have quite a few internet cheapies, so I thought why not, I know it's early and of course it came out negative.
CM today is a little creamy like and my cervix is high firm and closed, about right for this time in my cycle I think. i'm not too sure I don't often check my cervix.
Symptoms
Backache - like usual
Cramps - really felt like AF was going to show
Tired - I think it just because the weather is dull
Sick - Felt a little sick again this morning but I think that was because I woke up really hungry

Ok I now have to go and be wonder women haha,
I need to start on the dinner have chunky chicken soup again and make little ones bottle and feed him.  

The trying - June 11th 2013

Hiya
firstly I like to say WOW over 400 views, never thought i'd get so many views.

This morning hubby woke up a little late for, so he forgot to take the pram out of the car, so I couldn't go out and get the stuff I needed to today, little ones needs baby wipes I need to get an envelope so I can send my mate photos of my little one, she is he's odd parent. Just in case your not sure what an odd parent is, is the same as a god parent only without all the christening stuff. So I couldn't do that today. So now have to do it tomorrow if hubby doesn't take me out after he comes back to work to get the stuff I need.

We did start trying to give little one food, he's not quite 4 months and today he really was not interested in the food, so when hubby comes back I'm going to tell him that he's not ready for food. Hopefully hubby won't say well he was the other day, I really don't think little one is ready. He is a prem, plus had or has (not sure) IUGR. So it would take time for him to be ready. He only has 5oz in his bottle and some of the time he doesn't even finish that. like today he only had 3oz of his bottle, I so hope he doesn't start losing weight can't be dealing with having to get him weighed every week again. every 2 weeks is fine.
So because hubby forgot to get the pram out of the car i'm stuck indoors so as you may have already guessed have not really done a lot today.

Ok now the TMI part of the blog.
I use 3 online charts all of the gave me the same ovulation date until today where on of them changed my ovulation date to one day before, so I have one chart that say I am 5dpo and my other 2 say 4dpo.
I think i'll go with the 4dpo just because then i'll either be on time or a date late.
Right my temp today was 36.7 so that's gone up which is a good shows I have ovulated.
CM seems a little creamy like, and my cervix I have not checked.
Symptoms
Backache - normal get it everyday oh joys
Cramps - both AF type and not AF type
Feeling sick - felt a little sick waking up this morning
Skin break out - oh joys like being a teenager again oily skin and spots
Tired - a little tired might be where I woke up a few times in the night
Bloated - Felt a little bloated this morning don't often feel that.
Gassy - only little bit but still gassy :(

I think that is everything for today, oh yeah I tried making a fruit smoothie today, failed at it, It need some strawberries and some sugar, so the one I made was kinda bland at least I know for next time.

The trying - June 10th 2013

Hiya
sorry I have not posted all weekend. Its been another fairly busy weekend.

Saturday, we helped hubby's mum with the food shop. his dad works some Saturdays and as his mum doesn't drive we help out, we spent the afternoon at his parents got home fairly late. Usual Saturday stuff.

Sunday, we actually had a nice lay in we feed little one at about 7am then we all feel asleep again, I woke up at 11 to see hubby and baby still asleep so I got up and had a shower, they were just waking up when I had got out of the shower.  Again we went to hubby's parents, but not before going into Havant to get a few bits, hubby said he wanted to make some one at work a t-shirt so had to get bits for that. Also yesterday our little one had food for the first time, baby food that is. We noticed he was starting to munch on his hands and tried munching on mine and hubby's fingers so we tried him on some food and he loved it.
We got back at about 8 so was another fairly late day getting in. We also had a gaming section, more playing COD with hubby's and playing online with his uncle cousin and one of their friends.

Today -
well it has just gone 1pm so nothing really has actually happened today. I'm still waiting on my package from clearblue. They told me that it would arrive by 1pm on Saturday so I thought ok being a weekend it would more then likely be 1pm Monday well being 1:10pm i'm guessing it might not turn up today. Saying that I have had parcels turn up at 3pm before but this one was a before 1pm guarantee. Knowing my luck i'll go to the shops and it will turn up when I am out. I do need to go to the shops got to pick up some stuff for little one's dinner tonight and then when hubby gets home we are off to a big Tesco store to get a few more bits for little one. Luckily hubby's sister had some baby food so she have us that.

Ok now as I am trying it is time for the TMI part of the post.
I thought I would have been 4dpo but all my charts put me at 3, so i'll just go with that.
CD 23, 3 DPO
Temp: 36.5
CM: not checked

symptoms
Backache - as usual
felt a little sick early hours of the morning
slight headache
some little cramping    

Now that my little one is asleep I am going to attempt to do some house work before he wakes up again. So until tomorrow i'm off :)

The trying - June 7th 2013

Our little woke up this morning at about half 6 for his bottle, he had about half of his bottle before throwing up half of what he had, good job we had the doctors anyway to today.
When I spoke to the doctor about it he checked his temp and throat to make sure nothing was wrong. All seemed fine. The doctor just said he might be coming down with the sniffles. Oh not sure if I have mentioned before that my little has to see a doctor once a month because he was a premi has IUGR and because he has been slow to gain weight. Yea I don't think my little one is coming down with something, he's a right smiler at the moment. He is also currently kicking me in the side because he is that happy. I do love it when he smiles.

Got a phone call this morning from clearblue saying that they have received my consent form and that they will be sending out my trail package, I should get it tomorrow, meant to be out all day tomorrow so I am hoping that it turns up before I go out.

Ok now to the TMI section of the blog.
Today is cycle day 20. OPKs are still positive but are or look like they are getting lighter, which I am hoping means I have or now am ovulating. I haven't checked my cervix nor my CM but it dose seem a watery creamy texture so going on the I have ovulated, temps don't match that though so I am unsure. I got woken by hubby again in the early hours of the morning and if you read my blog yesterday I think you'd guess what it was for, I am hoping this has now covered us for trying to get pregnant. According to one of my online charts it says I have a very high chance of getting pregnant. I must mention if you have not TTCed or are new to TTCing then each month you have a 20% of getting pregnant, even if you cover all your days you still only have a 20% chance of getting pregnant. So going on that site I have the 20% chance of getting pregnant.

So as I have had 2 days and now on my 3rd day of positive OPKs I am saying today is 1DPO
Ok so symptoms for 1DPO

• cramping - normal for me
• backache - normal for me, get it every day.

The trying - June 6th 2013

A today is Thursday and it's not half term I went to baby club, usually it's just with one lady and her little one, but this week another lady joined us with her little one. Which was nice as she's also same forces as hubby, so it gave us something to talk about. The lady I usually go with her little one and my little one started baby talking to each other today. It was so cute, they even tried holding hands as well. It's nice to see my little guy talking to other babies, even though we can't understand a word they are saying, I know they understand each other.

Ok lets get the TMI part of the post out. I only say it's TMI because I know some people don't really like hearing about other peoples cycle and CM and everything else that's goes with it.
Ok. Today is cycle day 19, I got another positive ovulation test, so going on that I think I can say tomorrow will be 1DPO.
I haven't checked my CM or cervix today so can't really say anything about that. My temp is a little down today. 36.2. hoping tomorrow it will go up, which I think would conform ovulation.
Last night my darling hubby decided he was going to wake me up and 2:10am for some hanky panky to put it nicely, even though that still sounds strange so i'll just say some baby dance. If you are a regular to TTC terms you'll know what that means even if your not I think you can guess what it means.
I'm hoping that that would give us a nice chance of falling pregnant this cycle, if I do the baby would be due that same day as my little boy was born.

One day I will give up and use names. At the moment I quite like it being my little boy and my hubby. Its not quite the same using names.

Today the weather has been lovely. The sun has been shining all day, in fact it's been shining all week. Tomorrow is meant to be warmer. Today has been about 20c and tomorrow is meant to be about 22c. Although I love the sun shine, I don't like it being to hot. my fault really everything I wear is pretty much black, I do have some clothes that aren't black but not a lot.

Ok i'm getting thirsty and I don't really have anything in the house to drink apart from coffee and water and i'm not a fan of either, so i'm off to take a walk to the shop to get a bottle of cola. hopefully it will be a nice cold one, and I guess I should get hubby one for when he comes back from work.

Good evening people.

Ok today I am going to start with the TMI part of my blog. Today is cycle 18, and I finally got a positive OPK. only 4 days later then I would usually. Hoping my LP phase will still be 14 days.
haven't really check my CM today or my cervix. My temp was 36.3.

So yesterday I got my letter from clearblue and today I sent the consent form back, so hoping I hear back from them by Friday maybe Monday at the lastest. I also got another letter today. One that I am pretty sure most women dread getting. As I said before i'm 25 next month which is also the age they start doing the cervical screening. It's all booked for the 13th. I'm a little worried about it, I know it's not going to be much different to when the midwives check your cervix to see how far dilated you are. I think I am more worried about the results. I'm pretty sure there is nothing to worry about its just I hate waiting for results.

Back on the subject of my cycle. On my cycle charts they tell you what your due date would be if you were to fall pregnant that cycle. It has given me the due date of February 28th, the same date my little boy was born. Only time will tell.

I haven't really got anything else to write today so it's only a short one today.

As today is Tuesday and because little one was not weighed last week he got weighed this week. He is now 9lb 11oz, and he's adjusted chart he's now on the 2nd centile line. if they don't adjust it he's still below the 0.4 centile line.

That was this morning, this afternoon I met another 2 ladies from my patch. We went to a café close by and wished we didn't the food there was not very nice, the customer service could have been better. I didn't like the idea of paying once you've had what you ordered, things like that should stay with restaurants, not cafes. They took forever to actually give you an order unless is was a cold can. They weren't even busy. Oh well I still enjoyed myself, as shy as I am it's nice to meet new people.

At lunch time I had a text from hubby asking if I wanted to move closer to his base, it would benefit him by being closer to work and using less fuel, but where little one has to get weighed every 2 weeks and has to see the doctor every month and with my confidence issues and only just starting to meet people we decided its not worth it. He's due another posting in 2 years so theres not much point in moving now or in a few months just to move again at the end of his posting.

Now hubby is home and is asleep on the chair holding a coat hanger.
I'll see if I can post a photo at the end of todays post.

So hubby is asleep snoring and little one is asleep next to me also snoring. like father like son. While I was at baby weigh in this morning quite a few ladies commented one my sons eyes, saying how lovely they were, they then looked at mine and tried to work out what colour they are. Mine are a greeny blue my little one has dark blue eyes, hubby has light blue eyes. I so hope my little one keeps his eye colour I love them, and I know he's going to end up being a flirt when he is older.

Ok heres my hubby asleep holding a coat hanger. I have removed the photo due to the safey welfare of him and other forces members.

Yesterday we went to my in-laws and had a bbq as the weather was nice. Makes a change having nice weather, Its meant to be nice all week, then grantee it will turn crappy for the rest of the month.
Yesterday I had a really bad blonde moment, I hadn't really took much notice of the date, even though I write it pretty much everyday and I realised that I'm 25 next month, I'm just over a month away to being half way to 50. My hubby laughed and said I'm getting old. He is younger then me but not my much, he's 24 in November.

Now for the TMI moments, Ok today is cycle day 16, still not had a positive OPK, and my temps agree with it. My online charts have not detected ovulation by my temps yet, but have detected that I am in a fertile period going on my CM. Going by that I think and i'm hoping I will finally get my positive OPK tomorrow or maybe tonight but don't have my hopes up on that one.
It's getting quite frustrating waiting for the positive OPK, i'm testing pretty much 3 times a day, So glad I ordered 30, but the way things seem to be going i'll end up using the whole 30 before my next cycle.

I'm making my chicken soup again tonight, before I start making that though i'm going to gut and tidy the dining area in the kitchen diner and then we will actually use are dining table for a meal rather then something to put stuff on. Ok i'm off now little one wants feeding and his bottle should have cooled down enough by now.
As tomorrow is Tuesday and it's been 2 weeks since my little one had been weighed i'll be starting off with that.

Hiya
Just a quick one tonight.
Firstly I know I didn't post yesterday, Our little one had his second lot of jabs and we then spent the afternoon out so he would sleep. He only got a slight temp rise and was still completely normal in himself.
The same can't be said for today though. Usually he'll have most of a 5oz bottle. Today he's been having 4oz at the most. At one point he only took 1oz he was really hungry a few hours later but still only took just under 4oz. He's been crying more then usually today as well.

I got a few bargains today. Got a nice underwear set for £2, and a lovely gothic puzzle for £3. Went bargain hunting today. Also had my hair dyed again this afternoon, got what was purple but had turned blonde dyed to match the rest of my hair.

It's been a lovely sunny day today, and tomorrow is meant to be good as well. We are going to the in laws for a BBQ. Looking forward to that. Must remember the sun cream and hat for little one.

Now the TMI part.
today is cycle day 14. Usually I would get my first positive OPK, it's not quite positive hoping tomorrow it will be, it is slowly getting darker though. CM today is watery, but instead of going the egg white like texture it should be it looks like its going back to creamy, so whether that means i'm not going to ovulate i'm not sure. Temp today is 36.4. So a light rise which I think is good.

Might not be posting tomorrow as I'm not sure what time it will be when we get back. So until next time. UK readers (if any) enjoy the sunny weather, makes a change on last year. To any US readers try and stay safe, thoughts go out to all those effected by the tornados recently. To any other readers, sorry I don't really know much else that's going on. I should really look it up and listen to the news more often.
