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

morning

Velvet I started a thread and got nada. Boo. Its good to let it all out. Sods law says that now we are not on the thread with the list we will all get BFP's

Anybody else want to be chart buddies? Whoever was asking, look at the top left corner to add a friend. I am finding FF less fun this month because dildocam told me when I was going to ovulate so there is not much guess work to be done. Although, I think I need any extra button in the "specific" section which says "binge drinking" to help me discard those misleading booze fueled temp jerks

velvet that all sounds v promising Boobs don't grow unless there's a reason and there's only one reason

Oooh velvet that all sounds really promising. I'm torn between telling you not to poas just yet because it won't be reliable and just shouting "poas! Poas! Poas!" until you do

As for the thread-starting, I started the "lucky" thread just after Christmas and everyone seemed to get a bfp on it except me, so I think you've had a lucky escape

Morning!

I was a little :( about not getting to start a thread seeing as it has been lucky for lots of people but I have to remind myself that getting pg has nothing to do with mn!

Happy belated birthday Wiggle - there seem to be a lot of talented bakers around these parts. I am definately not one of them! My cakes always come out more like biscuits

Jolls how are you this morning? sorry if she got you, fx if not

and anyone else I have missed (there will defo be someone!)

Sooo I really don't want to be writing this but I have got to get it all out! You know I had finally got my head round not expecting to be pg, I havent been checking my chart everyday, just taking temps, putting them on ff and ignoring them, starting to enjoy life again etc etc.

Well my body is being frikking mean!! I'm either 8 or 10dpo (ff changed her mind but have 2 temp shifts 2 days apart) and my boobs have grown and are tingly, my norks (a nix word if I remember??) feel like they are gonna snap off, I'm crampy and I feel sick.

It's not just that though - I feel weird like I'm not really in my body and I had crazy rage yesterday but woke up crying this morning.

I had a really big temp dip yesterday and this morning its sky high!

Its definately not AF on her way coz I have a 17 day LP. It started yesterday so i dont know if thats too early for so many symptoms??

Sorry for the mememe and I know that these are all good signs but I really had gotten used to the idea that I was gonna be here forever and all was nice and calm and peaceful in my head! Now I'm thinking I must still be subconsciously crazy and these symptoms are all in my head??!!

Phew, that feels better

sorry youre ill pal x

Moo a couple of pals know, now! blardy obvious like! Avoiding our annual company conference last week with being at hosp where everyone would have clocked so i guess when i go to HQ this week peeeps will start to figure it out... still gonna let em guess!

Mm oyster bay bubbles... that would work

glad you found us Happy Birthday! xxx

Izz mmmmmmmm proper wine how I miss the first world.

Happy birthday for yesterday, and good luck with the caterpillar cake!! Booking appointments etc sounds a good step to take, although obviously I hope you're wrong about AF and don't need them x

mummya Oyster Bay make a particularly good Sauvignon Blanc...

Ah ha, so here you all are! I just had a nosey on the other thread and barely recognised anyone! Plus it feels so bliddy long since I mc now that I can barely remember all the details of my erpc etc. Think I may lurk in here now if that's ok?

AF due tomorrow and I think she's already sticking her pointy old nose around the door. Seem to have lost thermometer down back of bed and not even sure I can be bothered to rummage around to try and find it - the anticipated temp dive tomorrow morning is not something I really want to wake up to.

We celebrated two birthdays yesterday - dd turned 2 and my ovaries-- I turned 38 After a meltdown last month I've much more relaxed about the whole ttc thing now. This may be as a result of booking appointment with fertility clinic for middle of March (week before my due date - oh, the irony) and I've just completed first lot of fertility bloodwork with GP so feel like we're doing something proactive other than well, just swi in the middle of each month!

Big wave and long-lost-reunion-style hugs to everyone. Will try to catch up properly later, have to dash as am half way through making very hungry caterpillar cake for party tomorrow and covering every available surface in kitchen with bright green icing!! Also have dusting of icing sugar in hair which appears to be quite ageing!

Jolls oh fuck is it our birthday soon? I had forgotten that was creeping up. I so hope you are wrong about AF. Whats oyster bay? (I am thinking Cocktail, bubble bath or TV show? Am I close?) Sorry about your stats.

Izz yes I am afraid it was accurate - I kept my beady eye on him the whole time and made him do three measurements. Also he knows I send everything off to other doctors so he likes to do everything properly. Also its actually my second midcycle scan with crap measurements, last month I managed to convince myself that it was inaccurate because I went just after ov instead of just before, but this time my timing was spot on. I will try and not panic yet, mainly by staying in sweary mode as long as possible. Shit shit shit.

velvet just noticed that you got swizzled out of the thread starting thing! Not fucking fair!

Well Buffs your tumbleweed has well and truly been dispersed now - its great to see such a lively wee thread again.

Mummy - pants. How disappointing just when you thought you were getting somewhere. Try not to get too down in the mouth until you've had some advice from your UK doc though.

YRMOTB my due date is 18th May, so a while to go yet! Still trying to get over my soppy self from yesterday, its the hormones!

Velevt have you been usurped from starting a new thread? (Shakes fist at well meaning newbies!!)

Ocht Jolls pal, might not be you know. Aint over til its over and remember it sometimes feels very similar. And pack it in with the deadlines lady - I know we've all done it but its absolute madness when we have no control over it. Away and saturate yourself in OB and see what the next few days bring.

Nicks and MamaP well done on the scan results today!! Great news lassies. When are you planning on going public Nicks?

Good luck again for tomorrow Dachs x x

jolls boo! for imminent RTD (although reminds jolls that RTD is not actually here yet so not to give up hope!). The landmarks are bloody hard

OTOH, oyster bay is not a wholly bad place to be

mummyA so sorry you have had a buggery day :(. And that as you say you have the weekend to fret :( :(.

Scans stuff: dachs I know from lurking on the other fred that you have had a fair bit of worry, so am admiring your mental place on your scan. You get a gold star. Nickster, more reassurance for you - smashing.

what else have I missed? Forgive me, am still ill and very old.

Think the evilness of red tide is imminent in UnJollsterLand which is a total fecker for a number of reasons.

1. It'll mean I won't be pg on due date for last MMC.
2. It'll mean I won't be pg on HUGE birthday in 2 weeks time.
3. It'll mean this is the longest I've tried for a BFP and not got one.

Off to immerse myself in Oyster Bay

((( mummya ))) sorry the scan didn't give you the reassurance you need , please try not to panic just yet (if that's possible)...how accurate are the scans? I know we're talking about pretty small measurements here, is there any room for error?

Fx you hear from dr march soon...it must be horrible to keep wondering and not quite having a definite answer. In the meantime, all I can suggest is that you swi as normal and hope it works out? Stranger things have happened chica xxx

loola I know, I've been feeling homeless too! Pull up a beanbag!

velvet hope you're ok. I saw your post on the mother thread...I know it was your turn to start the next thread, and we have rather been rendered obsolete, but I guess that's just the way of things and really that's how it should be? I don't think anyone posting then were on the thread way back when we handed out dibs on the next one xx

loola Had scan yesterday - showed two sacs and both had yolk sacs, only got a heartbeat from one though. Might just be too early but I'm not holding out too much hope as the sac was a lot smaller than the one with the heartbeat so i think it was as mc

velvet of course there's a beanbag for you too! all of you have reserved stickers :)

mummya big hugs and FX that it's better news than you think. Trilaminar is good though...

Gah mummy! Almost.., is that enough?? So sorry it's not what you wanted to hear :( really cross for you :(

I really hope it doesn't mean more surgery and that the doc cones back with something constructive, quick and value for money xxx

Swear a lot, we don't mind xxx

shit and why do I always book scans on Friday? Now I wont find out anything from Dr March until Monday. Bugger

lurkyloola Hello!!

Dach promise not to get excited about two, but I do hope they both make it xxx

Izz FF stores up your cycles and when it reckons it knows your average LP will set the test date at that. Looks like you have confused yours as much as mine (cycle lengths = 136,26,32,28) It does the 18 high temps thing when you have too few cycles to get an average or if your cycles are blinking bizare like mine

YRMOTB I do two a day too, FMU and then 2pm, I am getting steadily darker lines this month as opposed to nada last month.

nix

Had my scan. Not sure whether to cry or swear a lot. Endometrium is 5.5mm and pattern is "almost trilaminar" so its not good news. Not sure exactly how bad the news is yet either, as always my chirpy and optimistic Costa Rican sonographer is to be ignored and I am going to write to lovely Dr March again and see what he says. In the meantime I am just pouting and try to stave off a big wibbly meltdown. Have a 18mm follicle so ov is imminent.

Fuckity fuck fuck.

I am homeless! TBH don't post enough to fit in anywhere, but was missing lurking at names I knew rather than strangers! I've found you all though so can keep dabs on you

Hang on a min... whats this about 2pups Dach

Brill news nix

Thought velvet was on wave list !!! Waves :) xx

Great news nix

Any news muumya??

oooh Dachs exciting that their might be a number 2 - glad that things are working out for you this time. Do you have a beanbag for me to? Don't let it get too dusty!

No idea why ff has given you that test date Izz - i thought 12dpo was too early too!

Hope you are all having a wonderful friday evening :)

nix that's fab news chica I'm so chuffed things are going so well for you xxx

Thought i would let you ladies know that a further scan today showed nicksterbean at 8.7cms and happy as larry.. after all that shite earlier in the week all is good xxx

Feet still up...

Hope you are all good and smegging like billyo...nope sounds totally wrong xxxx

Don't worry - I have beanbags for you guys locked in a secret cupboard so nobody can nick them

Don't be too excited about potentially having pup2 - it was a lot smaller than the first one, so I'm not keeping my fingers crossed. Although I have another scan tomorrow so I can update then!

yrmotb I only ever had a period during the day of about 5 minutes when i got positive on ov pee sticks, so either use lots or ditch them and use other methods! Or just grab DH a lot and make him a v happy, if somewhat tired!, man...
