The resurrection of the 6th form common room for those inbetweeners who are TTC/PG after mc and are too long in the tooth to fit anywhere else

The resurrection of the 6th form common room, a place to put your feet up, wallow in self pity (me) or rejoice (and tremble in fright) at new growing beans and baybees after mc. No lists. No stats. No babydust. No feeling bad if you can't keep up.

Go.

Congratulations tunnocks Taking yourself away from it all seems to have done the trick!

Mummy If that lovely looking chart of yours doesn't produce a bean I'll eat my thermometer! When are you going to POAS?

Loola and Battery Things are looking promising too. I'm running out of suspenders to wear!

Also starting to panic that I'm going to be left on this wee thread all on my own Sad

mousebacon · 20/02/2011 21:19

Ooh congrats teacake really pleased for you Smile

mummya that is a very handsome chart indeed. Fingers crossed for you xx

Velvetcu · 20/02/2011 20:38

Ooh mummya chart is looking good - suspenders are at the ready!

aandr cm is still brown but is definately still cm as opposed to pre-af brown stuff so I'm hoping it's ok.

Hope you are enjoying your Sunday all. Half term so no work for me next week (well I'll be in but at least the kids won't be)

Youremindmeofthebabe · 20/02/2011 19:43

congratulations tunnocksSmile

battery Yours is looking lovely too, good luck with testing!

AandRMum · 20/02/2011 19:40

Teacake absolutely fantastic news. Congrats!!

Loola I know what you mean about not wanting to test ... but it is killing the rest of us

batteryhen · 20/02/2011 19:12

thanks for those who have looked at my chart - if my temp is up tomorrow I may test - but have none in the house (deliberate move!)

For mummyA chart - scroll up to 17th feb. Not that I am a stalker or anything!

Congrats teacake xx

Velvetcu · 20/02/2011 19:04

Velvet I was wondering where Mummy's chart is too? Battery your's looks text book! I had that second shift with all 4 BFPs. Good luck Loola if you test

Velvetcu · 20/02/2011 18:52

Where is the chart for me to stalk mummya? I can't find the link!

battery yours looks pretty good to!

loola my bfp was with a morrisons own brand, 2 for £4! That was at 14dpo which is still 3 days before af is due for me

mummyabroad · 20/02/2011 18:02

loola 10 quid! blimey I can get an HCG blood test over here for that! I wouldnt be phased by the little bit of spotting though, it could be a bit of cervix erosion from sex (nothing to worry about) or if you are pregnant its quite common to get a bit of blood when AF is due. I can understand the fear of crushing dispointment, I much prefer early testing to "on time" testing for that exact reason. At least if you are too early you can dismiss the test as inaccurate, but if you know your dates then you have to accept the result. Will put my suspenders on for you xxx

loola2shus · 20/02/2011 17:56

Battery that certainly looks triphasic! exciting stuff!

mummya I haven't done that to be honest I don't think there's enough to do it anyway! I am thinking its probably not ewcm and just because of BD last night, I suppose only time will tell if this is start of AF or not- but then if not its worrying that I have slight spotting Confused

If no af tomorrow I will get a peestick I think - I just hate it when you get that crushing disappointment and kick yourself for getting your hopes up (& wasting a tenner as I have no cheapys left!)

batteryhen · 20/02/2011 17:33

mummya that is a damn fine chart lady - you should be very proud :)

Also Izzy if you are lurking, hope you are ok - new day new cycle ( you can say those very irritating words to me this week I expect xx)

mummyabroad · 20/02/2011 17:28

oooh thanks girls I am getting excited by the chart too - hope I am not headed for a fall. Hmm

loola are you sure its Eggnog? Have you tried ceps Put It In Water test? (should form a glob and sink)

batteryhen · 20/02/2011 17:27

Thank you all for the empathy with he 'unsubtle' friend AandR I will let you know if I need the bat! And also yes she is childless - and has never ttc so why give advice on something she knows nothing about??!

caribou We hope he might find out this week if he is coming home in June for good. I really hope he is as then we can start making plans to move etc etc, so far we are in limbo!

I am going to have a stalk at your chart too mummya :)

mouse - big wave to you lady, glad the physical side of your ordeal is coming to an end xx

loola - can't persuade you to POAS then ?? :)

Well nothing much to report here, temps still up today - should have a drop tomorrow if AF is on the way - chart here if anyone fancies a look - I like fool myself it is tri phasic however, have had a few cramps today so AF is probably on her way. I have been feeling really sick too but often that is a sign of AF too. Oh the wonder of the female body!!

Hope everyone is ok - work tomorrow - boo hiss xx

loola2shus · 20/02/2011 14:53

OMG ma I second what YRM says! your chart is gorgeous!

I haven't POAS as I am too scared! As it happens I have just went to loo and have very slightly pink streaked ewcm (although did BD last night so may be that and not ewcm IYSWIM) So af might be on the way- this isn't the way she normally arrives though!

I have entered ewcm & spotting into FF and line is now broken!

BTW thanks whoever signed up from my page- I have just been given 5 free days! Smile

Youremindmeofthebabe · 20/02/2011 13:56

Chart's looking ace MASmile

mummyabroad · 20/02/2011 13:17

loola well, if that chart interpretation is accurate you have 18 temps above the coverline and are therefore pregnant! Have you POAS?

loola2shus · 20/02/2011 11:30

< waves to mouse- sorry xp Smile >

loola2shus · 20/02/2011 11:29

Morning all... well I have had a fiddle with my chart and its put the cross hairs back Confused I had put in watery cm on cd 16&17 but remembered this morning that I was unsure at the time if it was just increased creamy cm IYSWIM...so swapped it for creamy and they're back! (incidently it shows OV on the same day too)

Would appreciate any insight as it has got me baffled this month! PMT seems to have disappeared, and I haven't got pre af sore boobs (however my face is still a bit of a dot to dot!)

caribou I had the 'you aren't the only one to have a mc' line off my dad too Angry Yeah thats true but it doesn't make me feel any better!

Grin at the a&r velvet & mummya hit squad!

Pleased to see that you survived the aerobics wiggle I have zero coordination!

emoo I had progesterone done on cd24 this month and due for another tomorrow cd 29 so should give me a better idea!

yrm We too had snow all day yesterday (Newcastle) but has disappeared now!

Ok I am off to try to wrap up a drum for my DN's birthday! If you don't see me in the next few hours come and find me- I'll be wrapped up in a ball of sticky tape and wrapping paper Grin

mousebacon · 20/02/2011 11:16

Oh dear Caribou ! I spent most of the film trying to work out who the voices belonged to! Think I'd rather have seen tangled Smile

I'm doing ok thanks. I'm now 24 days post erpc and I think the bleeding has slowed to spotting so hopefully will ov soon. Just want to get this WTF cycle out of the way so I can ttc again Grin

How's things with you?

Battery I HATE the 'it'll happen when you relax' speech. Are they suggesting worry made my baby's heartbeat stop?! It's currently the 'don't worry, you'll get there' speech I'm getting though. How the hell do they know?!

and breathe...

Phew happy Sunday to all. Cooking lunch for the masses today...

CaribouMoo · 20/02/2011 09:57

Ocht Izzy, sorry to hear that RTD has rocked up on you. Hope you're keeping positive pal, let's hope this month is the one for you as its been a long old wait. Maybe your womb is doing a good job and is waiting for a cracking wee fertilisied egg.

Battery the things folk say astound me. I would never dream about giving out sagely advice to others in a situation I know nothing about. My mother spouted the 'trying to hard' line and recently my father told me I have been very negative over the last year. When I pointed out I had a hard year and lost 2 babies he said 'you're not the first person to have a MC' and of my paranoia being pg after MC he said I could be harming my baby with my negative thoughts. I don't understand why people think they can be an authority on something they know nothing about. Its probably well intentioned in most cases but doesn't stop you wanting to punch them in the face! What's the news with your DH getting home for good?

Mouse, hello! Hope you're doing alright pal. We went to the cinema yesterday to see Tangled, but it was sold out and saw Gnomeo and Juliet instead. WORST cinematic experience of my life! I hated it, the voice acting was dreadful even though it had some great names in it. I thought it was really flat and boring. Even DD didn't seem impressed and I saw some folk get up a leave!

Velvetcu · 20/02/2011 08:58

Yup mummya definately a symptom! I have been a proper rage monster for about a week!

AandRMum · 20/02/2011 07:55

Definitely a symptom MummyA

mummyabroad · 20/02/2011 02:28

back again already! no room at the inn for us, so we did a day trip and came back home instead! DS is at granny's so it still feels like a holiday Grin

battery the "just relax" speech makes my blood boil Angry along with "you've got plenty of time/you have left it too late" (I am 35 so everyone has a different opinion as to whether this is good or bad) and the very worst of all "this wont hurt, its just a bit uncomfortable" AAAARRGGGGGHH, the next person to say that gets my large ringbinder of medical notes across the bridge of their nose. oooh just realised I am full of rage - is that a symptom?

big waves to everyone on this lovely busy thread. xxxx
