Well I think after all our chatting its about time we had a new thread, as the previous one was very lucky for us, lets hope this one remains just as lucky.

Remember ladies - Our time will come, but our bodies have to be ready, and we are all here to support each other.

For those new people please feel free to check out our Stats thread, to see some info about us and leave you details if you want to.

GOOD LUCK!!!!

Well, got a BFP last night. Not actually sure how I feel - probably because dh was distinctly underwhelmed. He muttered "That means I'll have to go out and get a job" (he's currently studying full time for the Master of Wine exams, while I earn and extrmely generous salary) and then didn't talk to me for the rest of the night Nor did he give me the usual cuddle in bed

He's gone off this morning this morning early to play golf (this had already been arranged) but when I said "have a nice time" he said, "while I still can" (as in, he won't renew the membership - which is quite expensive - in the New Year).

I'm worried that he is going to resent me for all this.

To be fair, he has always been a bit reluctant about a second kid - felt he was too old to be a dad again, and only agreed in the end to humour me.

So part of me want to be , but at the moment most of me is pretty numb, if not

Fingers Crossed for you Diddle. I hope you get what you want!

Good morning everyone.

HK - Sorry to here about your bfn, I'm sure a BFP is round the corner tho.

Peepee - Your boss sounds like an idiot, I'd have clacked him myself and I'm not very violent

Hope everyone is okay and haveing a snazzy time this morning. I'm feeling much better, still abit ill (think i've got a cold coming) but not so sniffly and upset.

SMILE EVERYONE ITS FRIDAY

maddyd · 30/09/2005 08:41

slinkstah - i will be cd 37 on the 8th, AF could very well arrive before then, but going on the last 2 months if she's going to come it will be around cd42. e careful with testing early. maddyd did that and got a bfp then tested again and got a bfn and the baby had fertilised which showed the positive but not attached (or something like that) and so vanished again. cd23 of 26, isn't too early though. hope you get your positive

slinkstah · 29/09/2005 22:32

diddle- i will be cd23 on the 8th - early to test i know but cycle has been average 26 - and im too excited to wait any longer ;) what cd will you be on the 8th?

peepee- what do you do as your job, nursing or something - it sounds stressful, i used to work in a challenging behaviour unit when i was pregnant with my dd and i went on sick for most of pregnancy as it was blumin dangerous kicked in stomach once which caused a bleed but all was fine and have the most beautiful daughter in the world

not watching to Bill but i must admit i did watch eastenders. how things? i have not and will not be testing this evening, think you must have misread somewhere, far too early for me. You may have been confused because i am on cd 28, but i ahve at least another week to go, but thanks for thinking of me.

you still there?
sounds like you've had a productive time. can't believe that bloke at work said that, i'd have flattened him.

You are all watching the BILL now .

U are aren't u.......

Well, I am going to run a bath and chill.

Good night, or Good morning! Depends on how much TV u all watch...

peepee · 29/09/2005 19:54

Whoops, sorry that a bit long!

peepee · 29/09/2005 19:53

Nooooooooooooooo, not EASTENDERS!!!!!

How depressing. Why would anyone want to tear themselves away from the laughs on this thread. I haven't stopped laughing.
The mouse thing left me doubled up and in tears. That poor mouse is probably pooping itself with fear. I have a cat so have no problems with mice. Fleas make an appearance occasionally but who cares i love my cat.

Hellkat hope things sort themselves out for you soon.

Diddle, I thought I read that you were going to test tonite? Well, have u? Do tell!

I bought a couple of p/g tests yesterday.
I had saved up all my previous positive ones but threw them out in a rage after the last m/c. I have no idea why I kept them all. I suppose I am a little weird.

Gosh, it is getting cold. Am putting off the annual switching the heating on ceremony. Have got my big wooly socks on and my feet are still cold.

I achieved something good yesterday........

I had a long chat with my bosses at work the other day.
I put them straight on a few things.

One of the things discussed with DH was me not taking things easy enough at work when i am p/g. Who nows it could be a factor.
I travel for a bout 2hrs30 a day to get to and from work. I walk, take a train and a tube. I then do 10 hr shifts. This makes it quite a long day for me. Some shifts start at 7am and soem at 12 and finsih at 11pm. It can b stressful. When I think bac I did far too much at work and the bosses were stressing me out to with extra workload.
Anyway, I told that that should i get p/g again I would consider going sick just so's i could really chill and give myself the best possible chance. I know my GP will back me. The bosses have assured me that if/when I do get p/g my hours will b reduced for the first 3 mths and I will only wk M-F. I am feeling a little releived.
One of the girls i wk with and who had 4 m/c herself spoke to them quite harshly b 4 I got back from hols. Can u beleive that one of them said that, I quote, " You're not really pregnant until u are three months anyway, so it can't be that bad" She went balistic at him. Bloody IDIOT.

Anyway am going to stop know. Hope I have not bored u guys too much.

Is EASTENDERS finished yet?

HellKat · 29/09/2005 18:51

Yep they're back to normal. Wow means I've got a bloody short one then. Means I'm on cd14 tomorrow. If I count to the day before I bleed means I've only got a 20 day cycle lol. No wonder I hate af's so much .
Off to chill and watch Eastenders soon. Watched Creep last night. Pretty good, shame they did'nt elaborate on the story of how Craig got to be like that. Obviously dodgy experimentation gone wrong.
Have a great night all xx
Thanks again Diddle hunny, you're a star! x

i count from the first day of bleeding, until the day before bleeding comes again, so if i came on today that would become cd1 and not 28, if that makes sense.
well you're testing too early then i guess. but your cycles are not regular enough to tell are they, do you have a "normal" cycle length?

OP posts:
HellKat · 29/09/2005 18:11

Opps

HellKat · 29/09/2005 18:11

Thanks hun! xx
Daft question here but do you count your cycle from start of af to the next? If so thats makes my cycle only 21 days.

oh hellkat - sorry hun, was worth a try though keep at it, back to the drawing board, more bd for you.

Coathanger - i am testing on the 8th and not before. my cycles are never 28 days so it being cd 28 is not significant for me. i'm normally 35 days and have been over 40 days the last 2 cycles. lets hope this month is a lucky one and i get a baby and get to keep it.

Slink - glad you will be keeping us company, what cd will the 8th be for you?

OP posts:
Lottielou · 29/09/2005 17:17

Yes CH thats right Fingers crossed!
Slink - Thats great then, hopefully we will get 3 BFP's on the same day! That would be just wonderful!

Well good luck to all that test whilst i am away! Will be thinking of you!

Take care of yourselves and hopefully i will see you on Monday 10th with me BFP ( hmm, one can dream )

Bon Voyage! xxxxx

HellKat · 29/09/2005 17:03

Hiya all.
God you lot natter! .
Lottie- Hope you're feeling better soon hun and you get your bfp soon!
Ch- Only problem with rodents is they're incontinant so they leave trails of piddle everywhere. Do what Diddle says and check for a hole. You can pick up "Mice-friendly" traps pretty cheaply. Then you release the little critter back into the wild!
Mumswish- at "Thomas!" Can picture it too!
Hc- Evil, evil woman!! Wanting nursery to keep your little darling .
Well I tested and.................................................................................................
Bfn. Knew it would be and ok about it. Worried slightly though that all these pains are endo being a cow so will see if they ease off, if not then laser surgery might be an option. Good news is I ov tomorrow Wahheyyy so bonkathon here I come .
Ds1's away at his dad's this weekend and thought I'd give dp a treat tomorrow night. Dressing up, chilled booze, little naughtiness nudge nudge! Yes i love sex too he he . Bless he needs a treat he deserves one.
How's everyone else?
