Freak out room for those newly updiffed after MC to hold hands and support each other...

Website! Lol

I really wanted to post, ESP when the comments about still birth emerged after Louise from grads posted! Maybe I will later, am paying from the tub... A break from bear entertaining, and scrap booking!

Nah, don't regret it ma, I agree peeps need a place for ranting about how pg makes them feel, but to be as vicious as they were was just plain ugly - sadly!

aandr Thanks, glad to know it's normal.

velvet it's where you feel comfortable thats important.

mummya i'm same a nix i used to go and read the aibu but used to get so shocked by the open hostility of some of the responses, just tend to avoid now.

Like watching a car crash Nix almost impossible to not look!! Good for releasing a bit of pent up hormone induced anger but I tend to hid in the comfort of these threads and don't venture out often. I actually popped on the thread because of the title "sick and tired of pregnancy' as I remember that feeling very well from the final weeks when you know you are ready to pop as you would do almost anything to get the little begger out - hence the at the actual title and the tone it took on. Chin up MummyA you held your own very well! My respect for you grows on a daily basis!

Phew glad you said that Nix I am really regretting posting now, it just seems to make them worse! You are right its wasted energy. I am going to hide thread now and not look at it anymore. (Poor your sis, you do you mean she moved to another website and not her house right?)

abslutely pissing myself.

must own up to having gone and read the Hate pg thread....

The OP sadly i know lives in Cheshire, and is on the aug diffed thread..!

Didnt read the post from pink as it was withdrawn, but be-jesus... Flamed! Some of the rudeness to the replies were just plain UGLY

I am not calling anyone specifically on that thread this name, but MN can produce some very fecking nasty peices of work. My sister has been an avid Mnetter since 06 and recently moved elsewhere for the nastiness some of the threads became. I purposely dont go to the AIBU threads, as some of them can be vicious.

Respect for posting guys... even though i did think initially it was energy not worth wasting, and getting angry for no reason!

I'm not entirely sure which bus I'm meant to be on anyway cep so I'm gonna stay here til my dating scan (and I don't plan on going anywhere after that either!)

Hi CEP lovely to see you here! Know exactly how you feel - blood on wiping, brown goo, pinkish goo etc all seem to be a standard rite of entry into this room - something about preg after mc. aches in stomach (check - there is some major reconstruction going on in my stomach - I have a feeling I am brewing a big one and the renovators are in doing extensions), back ache - check - Others who know more about eptopic will be able to give guidance on what symptoms to look out for but I think it is more severe than an 'ache'. Friend who had one said it was like severe food poisoning.

MummyA the graduates after mc thread is lovely

sorry xposted with quite a few, i had to stop and vac up as ds had made a mess. Mummya there's a nov2011 thread on antenatal groups i've started chatting on there as well. quite a few of them mc'd in december, so have same kind of fears but are a bit more down to earht than me. More than welcome to join us as is everyone else due in Nov. There are oct buses and other months as well.

peers in and whispers is it safe

I hope you're all ok.

i know this is really daft is so early, but already am imagining everything is going wrong. had a little blood last night when i wiped (so ofcourse started thinking was chemical), been getting aches in my stomach (which in my right mind knows everything needs to stretch) got a couple of sharp pains in my back, so naturally have been checking ectopic symptoms on google. i'm going to be insane soon.

tunnocks I have the fanjo twinges too, almost feels like things going twang or being in spasm. I also have the pains at the top of my legs, in my groin area. My mum had these too, & said they were due to us both having retroverted uteruses...

Hello to everyone today have to confess to poas this morning, not sure why I did it but it was there taunting me

just want to add, that I have stayed away from other areas of MN, because I expect people to be like that, but I thought the Pregnancy section was "safe" I guess this is why it is bothering me so much, if its not a nice place to post there, where do we graduate too?

Velvet re: food. I eat mixed nuts and dried fruit in little overpriced snack packets Handy to keep in your handbag for then The Hunger strikes.

thanks AandR I can tick the fanjo twinges off my things to worry about list then :)

Pink I have been staying away from the rest of MN, and am really glad to have you guys here

I am all now. Like you I am used to the supportive side of MN, I just cant get over how people can be so vitriolic. I gather your first post was quite vitriolic too, but I have seen your subsequents posts which are much softer too. I think TT is right that there is not much point talking to them as their minds are made up anyway, but I am still and that they are so aggressive and mean. I really feel sorry for the kids they are going to have

Sorry for bringing unpleasantness into our little room. I'm going to withdraw to a safe place for a while until all this blows over.

I've put a pile of mini eggs in the corner as a peace offering.

Thanks mummya- I think the comment on here that inbetweener is particularly bothered about is mine from last night. However, I was already and fresh from cruising the MC and conception boards it just hit a nerve. Anyway pregnant women are safe to whinge all they like-have definitely learned a lesson to stay away from MN at large-have to deal with enough bile in real life.

inbetweener

you are right, this probably isnt the right place but...
I called them mean, not Pink and I did it because telling someone to "fuck off" is mean. Its not debate or letting someone else have a different point of view, its picking on people. It wasnt the only mean spirited comment on there either. I fully defend everyone's right to moan about being pregnant (mainly because I am sure I will do it myself) but its not right to attack people in order to prove your point of view is "right". The OP asked a question and everyone should be prepared to hear all the answers, even if the answer is "No, I love pregnancy".

tunnock (or gimmick as my phone seems to prefer to call you) I had that too-does it feel like aching or stabbing? Mine was aching by where my appendix would be (i don't have an appendix any more though!!) and dr google says it could be to do with the corpus luteum-no idea how but I took it as a good thing. Have you got a gp appointment for next week?

Also, had I read the thread for the first time today I probably would have left you all to it-so far I've sadly never made it as far as any the women on that thread so have no idea how they feel. Hopefully I have all that to come. Like I say, yesterday it triggered a nerve, today I would have had a more rational 'live and let live' attitude.

velvet and possibly tunnock I was just reading a thread about a lady having vibrating near her fanjo (hmmm sounds dirty!! ) but in any case a number of people said it can be caused by a trapped nerve as ligaments expand (tighten?!) In any case groin and fanjo twinges seem to be another of the endless list of potential symptoms!

Hello inbetweener nice to see you. As you've also been in the early, wibbly stages of pregnancy post miscarriage, you might recall that your hormones and rage monster makes you care more about stuff that you normally wouldn't give a stuff about. Yesterday, I was bothered about the thread, mainly because the pain of the conception threads are still such a recent memory and the title of the thread of the pregnancy thread is so inflammatory. Today I feel more rational and although being pregnant for me is still a huge novelty and I feel like I would go though literally anything to have a baby this year, I appreciate it's not a walk in the park.

Inbetweener Nix I don't think anyone has said you can't have a good complain about pregnancy symptoms - I fully intend to do my share!! I think it was more the emotive language of the title of the thread (which I guess is down to the meaning individuals attach to certain words) and the rather mean response of one of the posters to an opinion contrary to the op.

I had written more but it disappeared off my phone. But basically it said in the end as long as we get a healthy sprog we'll all be singing from the same page!

inbetweener my comment to them was not about their moaning it was about the use of the "hate" word in their title. I have not called any of them names nor denied the right to complain when you don't feel well.

Come on now ladies, what's been going on here then?!

Personally, not going in any other threads at the mo because I love our little group. We're all very supportive of other each other & ready to give advice/opinions. And that's one of the points of MN,its 'your' opinion. There's no right or wrong, its just what we personally think. Some woman may hate being pg, some of us are just grateful to be so.
