Gabbie does not eat dog poo either so there Dawn - she does eat the odd lump of sheep poo especially as it's frozen.
As for st Tropez - fine - better start now - how much are we going to need when we are large?

Thats why I stopped, I was using the whole bottle on each go!!! I'm sure if I had it done at the salon they would charge me double......

Never used it but always wanted to as so expensive and then I go brown v quickly in the sun but would like to give it a whirl before the sun comes out. Nikola (and hopefully me shortly) will need a litre just for the tum
You talk bollox - sometimes but they got their Tracey/Traci's mixed up and meant me!
Big hug

Hi ya

Sorry didn't mean to offend anyone with the dog poo eating!!
The St Tropez will be out asap now I know its ok to use and whilst I can reach all the necessary parts of my body!! Waste of time really as am fully covered up in this weather but it makes me feel less fat somehow if I've got some colour!
Sounds like Nikola & Tracey had a good weekend together, have the dh's recovered yet?! Tracey, does Nikola really look like Fizz or is she dead glam??!!
Dh had another visit to the walk in centre with the injured finger sat night - he took the dressing off and thought the top of his finger was hanging off but it was the seaweed & iodine dressing they'd put on it!!! What a drama queen hey! The sympathy has offically ended and he is now back on full washing up duty.
Only 4 more days til my first scan and I am convinced the nurse will ask what the hell I'm doing there when I'm not pregnant!! Well I'm sure after Friday if everything is ok I'll spend the next 6 weeks worrying until the 12 wk scan.
Hope your all taking it easy...
Love Dawn

Hi Dawn

I really hope the next four days goes quickly for you! This is by far the longest wait you have to go through. I was lucky because I had mine at 6wks, 8wks and 12wks, so after the first one it felt like I was there all the time! How exciting for you to find out how many heartbeats you have beating away.........!!!

I'm sure everything will be fine. So do you go on Friday?? I'll be thinking about you.

love nikola.x


ps not dead glam - dead fizz-like!

Dawn - glad you got dh back on washing up duty - think our dh's have recovered - just go into a sort of comatosed state so they ignore most of the things we say anyway! Good luck for the scan - I was always worrying that get there and nothing would be there - You have symptoms thought don't you so should all be fine and see how many there. I worried all the way to the 11.3 week scan then too and now worrying about my 16 week one! Yikes.
We will be here when you get back so good luck
Love
Tracey

PS Nikola looks nothing like Fizz at all - she was looking fab actually considering how big her fundus is!

Of course, we'll be here waiting......where else are we!!! Do we have a life outside this board?? I suspect not!

Hi ya

How are you all??
I'm having a few pc probs at the moment hence the limited posts!!
Am also struggling to stay awake past 9 o'clock at the moment! I'm sure I've asked this before but is it normal to feel so tired this early?
Well it's less than 12 hours to my scan and I am bricking it to say the least. So am calming myself with choc mini eggs!!
Changing the subject completely, did you see footballers wives last night - a bit steamy don't you think?!! Am glad I didn't see the first episode as the dog curry story would have traumitised me for life!
Dh is reading the pregnancy book and has just shouted up the stairs that in the 2nd trimester sex is meant to be better than ever!! He's now going on about bananas (I hope he's not getting ideas)! Bless him I think I should shatter any illusions now so as not to disappoint him don't you agree?! :wink:
Will let you know how tomorrow goes...
Love Dawn

HI Dawn

I don't think it was your pc it was the site - I couldn't get on yesterday either!! I wanted to leave you a message to say good luck for your scan today - I'll be waiting to hear all is ok!!

As for tiredness - I can't put into words just how tired I was during the first 14 weeks - it was an effort to open my eyes most days never mind get out of bed. It does pass and then you'll feel fantastic and full of energy and you can eat food again - its great!

As for sex.....for me, in the first trimester I was too sick and tired to even think about it and then in the second trimester I was too fat and pregnant to be able to manage it......without a very active imagination! As I'm about to enter the homeward straight of the third trimester.....I'm now even fatter and as tired as I was at the beginning - so I guess, there'll be no hanky panky in our house for a while!!!

I'll have to make do with watching footballers wives - very steamy to say the very least!! I was really shocked. I watched it yesterday afternoon in broad daylight and was worried one of my neighbours would come and knock on the door and catch me watching what looked like porn in the middle of the day!!!!

Good luck for today (if you haven't left already) I'll be waiting to hear what happens this afternoon.........

Good luck Dawn

Site was a nightmare yesterday!
F Wives - much more graphic than last serious - know what you mean N - we watched it "live" so to speak. Think the dog next door must have seen it as just got back from walk with him and another and gAbbie and he kept trying to insert his todger in her mouth!!!! Then Sparky approached from behind - she thought it was a game and kept rolling in the snow - she is now knackered - bit like Tanya! and her nails are as sharp - need to get the scissors out!
Bananas hey dawn? they make me feel sick just the smell of them - could always try that one.
Love to you both
Tracey

Hi ya

Have just got back from our scan and all is fine - we have one heartbeat!!!
It was amazing to see it on the screen although me & dh were both looking at the wrong bit to start with! We didn't get a picture because the machine had run out of film which was a shame.
I thought dh was going to cry bless him.
So I am now going to try and relax until the 12 week scan which I'm sure is easier said than done. (best not watch F wives anymore as can't be good for the blood pressure)!!
Tracey, sounds like Gabbi's learning to be a tease already!! Well at least shes getting some action in that department!.
Have got to go to work today which I could do without especially as we've had about 3 inches of snow and I hate driving in it. Am working til 7 too which is a real pain but hey at least I'll get a good part of the summer off on maternity leave as little one (or eric as dh is fondly calling it) is due on 19 Oct.
Have a great weekend
Love to you all
Dawn

Hi Dawn
I just wanted to say congratulations.....isn't it the most amazing feeling? I'm 7 weeks and 2 days today with one so a little ahead of you, so we can compare notes throughout.
I agree the worrying doesn't stop here...but it will be so worth it.
Love, Michelle xxxx
Our darling son Jake was born in October 2004 on our 3rd IVF attempt. I have PCOS. We're now trying again naturally, before embarking on our next FET IVF possibly late 2005... so watch this space!!!
