Good luck for today Dachs,

Great news on the weight loss Izzy.

Glad the acupuncture has calmed you down Pink, I used to have it before TTC for ridiculously heavy periods and it was brilliant.

Mamap, I bet you are struggling to resist poas! Grin

Mummya - I lower my head in awe of your hardness Wink Seriously though, I had to have dye shoved where it's really not meant to go too and yes, it bloody hurts! But, like you say, only for a few seconds.

Tigger - you can tell us either way, we're not real people.

Velvet - BIL situation sounds like a right nightmare.I have had to share my house with people coming out of relationships on more than a couple of occassions and at first it's fine, but when they start outstaying their welcome it's really hard work Sad Lets hope he finds somewhere soon!

Morning to the rest of you.

PinkRabbitFood · 14/01/2011 08:24

izz it's rubbish in here this morning!! Where is everyone?????!

IzzyWizzyletsgetbusy · 14/01/2011 07:45

Oh come on, look at that list, someone must have given in and poas this morning...?

PinkRabbitFood · 14/01/2011 06:48

Hello all! I've updated the list but please check your numbers carefully as I am not running at full speed today, had no idea it's possible to feel this tired....

mummya - no drugs and not a whimper?? Not one?? You are amaaaaazing!! Grin

tigger ok I know this is mental but..... why don't you just wait a week to test? Grin - I'm very good at dishing out this kind of advice! Hehehehe

lady velvet sorry you had stressful days yesterday. Anyone out there that doesn't have acupuncture - DEFINITELY give it a go. I'd been feeling grim all day with that butterflies in stomach adrenaline feeling and now I am feeling ZEEEEENNNNNNN, even though acupuncturist knowingly informed me that massive inflated painful boobs at this point in my cycle (had them all week) simply means my liver Qi has stagnated... Didn't dare mention motorway boobs Blush

zam you still about somewhere or are you out enjoying the sunshine? Envy

mamap did you manage to sleep with all today's exciting news? Any POAS action today???

izz fab news on the weigh in!

getawiggleon · 14/01/2011 00:02

And to thank you all for all your comments earlier today. As Mama so brilliantly put it - you are all ace!

getawiggleon · 13/01/2011 23:52

Just passing by to wish Dachs good luck for tomorrow (and maybe your boss is a secret mumsnetter..?!)

IzzyWizzyletsgetbusy · 13/01/2011 23:19

Oooh mamap fab news re the pub and fx for af not turning up . When will you poas?!!

dachs best of luck for tomorrow, will be thinking of you!

pink hope the acu went well, I've got an appt tomorrow afternoon and am looking fwd to it. How's yours going?

mummya sorry the hsg was so traumatic Sad Hope you're doing ok now? Fx for some good results and some swi-ing later on!!

wiggle have to admit I would be dreading it too, I would either tell them, or avoid it. Hope you work it out ok

wombat I am relatively cheery atm actually and I'm not sure why...I think it's partly the relief of getting past the due date/Christmas and partly I've just come to terns with it all a bit. Anyway

tunnocks what a lovely message! I hope the step back does you good and you're back here soon with some good news. You know we're always here if you need us x

Oh and I had lost 2lb at the weigh in today!! Grin

Mamapower · 13/01/2011 22:38

Just a quickie, ended up having a girls night, so full catch up tomorrow, just 2 things:

Dachs good luck for tomorrow, crossing everything for you.

and Pink, will be thinking of you tomorrow and I hope it's not too painful for you.

Thank you all for your good wishes, I suspect I will be getting a few visitors Wink

Also on an amazing note, my af hasn't arrived today, I can feel it coming but even if she turns up over night it means my cycle has extended by a whole day which is bloomin great news Grin I don't know why but I was always a 28 day girl pre mc and for some reason I would be stupidly happy to return to my 28 days!

night all, and thanks again, you lot are totally ace Smile

DachshundsWantPuppies · 13/01/2011 21:53

Yay mamap that's fab news!

Thanks for all the good wishes guys. I'll let you know how it goes

Oh - boss has redeemed herself slightly by doing a complete turnaround on the holiday thing and pretending she never said no in the first place...

I'm hoping this means that as I am now excited about the holiday, that tomorrow will definitely go well so I have to cancel the holiday!

Need to be on early train to get to hospital on time, so I'm off now but I'll check in properly tomorrow

Night night peeps

(wine for the rest of you...)

Ladybee · 13/01/2011 21:35

Well Tigger let's just say you can yell at us if it doesn't happen and if it does, you'll just have a load of people on the internet getting hugely excited at your absence.

Mamapower that's brilliant news! Well done!

Just a very quick one from me tonight - it seems to be the day for lots of work stress.
Boss is in town (she lives abroad) at the moment so a load of extra meetings to try fit in mean not much work is actually getting done.

waves to all!

tigger15 · 13/01/2011 21:16

Thanks for all the greetings. I'm sincerely hoping but trying not to hope too much because I'll be so down if it doesn't happen. Also dh is away all of next week on business so I'll be all by myself when I find out one way or the other. Sad So I'll have no one to share it with (apart from everyone on this list and I'll feel a bit bad if a whole load of people over the internet find out before dh no offence intended) or yell at depending on what happens.

Dachs I really hope it goes well for you tomorrow.

Velvetcu · 13/01/2011 21:00

mamap congrats :) I will definately be visiting!

mummy sounds most unpleasant! I dont like any gynae things.

dachs good luck for tommorrow

tunnocks lovely post, great news that you are actively changing things to reduce your stress levels, shame you are leaving us but I understand entirely.

I too am stressed at work (and at home actually!). Don't know if you remember I said BIL moved in just before xmas as he split up with fiance - well he is still here and looks to be staying for a few months while he ssaves up to buy a house!!

Did anyone else get a free 5 day VIP on FF? I'm off to play with it now (but I really should be working)

BackOnceAgain · 13/01/2011 20:41

Just a quickie
Thanks Emoo for FF 101, just what I was needing once AF has been and gone this weekend. Also agree with mummya that you do such great updates Smile

Mamap yay for the offer acceptance, how utterly cool, I am a bit Envy actually Smile

everyone with a due date looming, mine is too Sad coupled with my grandma's death it seems unfair, unbelievable and untimely that I have to get through this month. 2 very close friends due dates same as mine was (29th Jan) and 2 extended family members also due in the coming weeks. So I do feel robbed, gutted for getting nearly half way through a pregnancy and now????

So I stupidly on cd26 poas, and obviously nothing, fish me up Blush

Dachs good luck and fx for you

Sorry for lack of Everybody else

Night all x

MummyAbroad · 13/01/2011 20:38

Yes, Good luck dach

cep · 13/01/2011 20:22

just popped back for a quick good luck for tomorrow dachs

MummyAbroad · 13/01/2011 20:09

pink sorry to make you wriggle, but I thought I would give an honest account. By the way, I delivered DS naturally with no drugs, he was 9 pounds and I didnt whimper one bit so I am not normally a pain wimp!

Maybe I have got a funny shaped cervix or something? This is my 13th invasive procedure in an 8 month period, and I have found all of them painful (except the ones under GAGrin) I hope you have more of a loola experience, (other ladies on MN have said it is not painful too) but just in case, take the drugs. I was told to take one dose of ibuprofen the night before and another an hour before the procedure (at 10.00am) Also, looking back it really is only for a few seconds as the dye is pushed in, and then its over.

youremindmeofthebabe · 13/01/2011 20:04

A quickie! Good luck for dacha tomorrow, and a massive woop woop for mamap's bistro thang, that's so fab!!

Back tomorrow for a catch up a la emoo and loola. very impressed!

PinkRabbitFood · 13/01/2011 19:49

Haha so much chat here-I do one message and miss a whole page!! Ouch mummya I'm wriggling here too!!! I'll defo be doing the paracetamol and ibuprofen then!!! Hope results are perfect xx

loola hope you managed to sort stuff out!

nix you're very quiet, you ok? Xx

PinkRabbitFood · 13/01/2011 19:41

Hello all!!!

mamap that is the most fabulous news!!! I will be zooming down to Kent soon as it's open!!!!! Grin what a lovely comment from DH, I think he's right!!!!

tunnocks sorry you're having a hard time :( your plan sounds great though, all the very best xx

wiggle I have ben having similar thoughts myself-a really good friend is due in May and wants me to visit her but I'm stalling so far. I'm worried about similar stuff to you, that I won't be able to look convincingly excited enough (I am excited for her but the combo with self pity is likely to show as indifference at best I think....), and that she'll feel like she can't talk about all the exciting stuff she's probably thinking for worry that she'll upset me (she knows about MC) and I don't want her feeling like she's treading on eggshells. I was sure up until a week ago that I'd be completely happy to see her when she's got her baby but now I'm not 100% sure, although o think it'll be easier than going while she's pregnant. No idea why! So in summary, I'd give it a miss, you don't want to risk feeling left out and worrying about it coming up isn't good for you either.

Chloe tough one about job, not sure what the answer is. How about getting a couple more cleaning jobs so you can pick and choose your hours and how much to take on? I guess it doesn't help maternity pay situation though.

Ochaye you about?? Haven't seen you for a bit!

On phone, sorry if missed anyone. I am mega stressed at work :( not quite sure what to do about it though, as reluctant to give up the great benefits i get. But too busy to make it to bellringing or yoga so all my de stressing techniques dont work either :( arghghghghghfhf

Going to acupuncture tonight but really want to sleep instead, appt isn't until 9 tonight :( izz you still acupuncturing? How did weigh in go?

mummya how did it go?

GOOD LUCK TOMORROW DACHS!!!

loola2snowshus · 13/01/2011 18:57

Mummy I had HSG a few years ago, and other than slight discomfort, there was no pain at all! I do tend to be on wimpish side of bravery too! Maybe I was just lucky!

Mamap Fantastic news, this is the start of good things to come!

Wiggle ...what mummy said! I agree but she is more eloquent!

tunnocks best of luck!

lady what a day! all in all a good result!

Emoo thank you for chart flattery

pink sounding good missy!

wombat & GET fab news about temp hikes!

izz hope weigh in went well!

owl hope booking appt went well!

choccy whoop for weight loss

YRM VELVET MAMA & PINK I have flashing sussies at the ready!

Oh Dear DH and the DCs have started ww3 in the bathroom... best be off xxx

MummyAbroad · 13/01/2011 18:56

cheers chloe! by the way, if you are going to use ff.com, then get someone to post a link to their chart and sign up through that, that way you both get 5 free VIP days. If you want to le arn more about fertility stuff in general, get the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler. Its brilliant and explains charting and a lot more xxx

Chloe55 · 13/01/2011 18:49

I obviously meant mummy not mamma Blush

Mamapower · 13/01/2011 18:49

x-posts, thanks nix, how you doing today? when is your scan?

Mamapower · 13/01/2011 18:48

Thanks Mummy. [ouch emotion] at your story of dye insertion, that made me actually wince reading about you screamimg 'stop'! Poor you, fx crossed for the results showing all is well, enjoy a drink (or two). Faversham is about 25/30 miles away at a guess, such a small world... my Grandma and Grandad used to live there, it's close Canterbury, a lovely part, I just love all of kent!

Thanks emoo

Chloe I see, well then you can just see how you feel about it all at the time you are offered a job!

nickstermum · 13/01/2011 18:48

well done mamap thats great news Grin
