Just MC and ready to try again? Pack your cake, wine and tightie whities and join us for more ranting, weeping and most of all laughing! All welcome! (Part 15)

thank you ladies, sorry to be so silly, it's just that it hit me tonight how bad he's actually gotten.

rue we're away for the night on the 17th, my parents are looking after ds for me. hopefully i'll be able to get a goodnights sleep. i annoying he slept through last night but i still bloomin woke up at 4.

mel he used to go on reins, and i think i'll have to get them out, same as a booster seat that went on his chair which i can fasten him into, i think i'll have to start doing that again and just ignore the screaming. I used to do behaviour charts which was like a chore chart had a little list of what he needed to do (like stop shouting etc) and he got a little banana foam sweetie thing for each one he got a tick for. he loved ticking them. think i'll have to start that again.

brooke i really hope so.

cep your not a shit mum ( i know i dont know you but i can tell!ha ) it's just his age and he will grow out of it, hes just trying to test you! And you will cope with 2!! Try something like melies make a chart and give him a sticker everytime he is good and if hes naughty take one off!

Cep Your DS sounds just like mine at that age, and just like my DD now! Don't worry, just keep him out of harm whilst he explores the world. My Ds was bonkers from birth so I never got to do any smug parenting to begin with! I think we're barred from most establishments in London! You will be fine, have you joined any threads for people expecting their 2nd (do they exist)? Cep. it's a bit sad that you aren't feeling over the moon following your scan yesterday - it would have been nice for you to have a couple of days (at least) of being a bit oblivious to anything but relief. I imagine you must be knackered, is there anyway you can get a break, even for a few hours? Wish you could have a lovely sleep, a nap, a rest. Sending a hug xxx

laylas try a digital with fmu, they at least have it in writing, even if they're not as sensitive. i hate the lined ones.

chloe how's the job going are you enjoying it?

brooke glad you managed to talk to her about it.

my ds seems to have turned into the child who's parents i felt sorry for while i sat their smugly with my "perfectly" behaved 1.5 yr old, while they ran riot all over the restaurant. took him to the local hungry horse just down the road as dh is out tonight, he would not sit still, twice ran round to the pub side of the building, kept crawling under the table or along the bench. put him in the high chair and he can undo the belt so he just kept standing up, kept shouting on and off, and generally really embarrassing. Walking home and he ran off in the other direction towards to road, thankfully turned left not right so gate inbetween pavement and road, and ran onto a patch of grass where dog walkers let their dogs go to the toilet without picking it up, thankfully he missed it. How the hell am i going to cope with two if i can't even get 1 to behave. am suddenly very scared, and feeling very much like a shit mum and just don't know what to do, i just can't control him anymore.

sorry to end with a mememe, just feeling really low. I know this isn't the behaviour thread but you ladies are like family.

Happy Birthday really ARe you doing anything nice?

Hopeful I am in at your nurse, that is utterly unbelievable!! A def complaint should be made. She is in one of the most caring professions and has made you feel liek shit in about 2 seconds unneccessarily - what a twat! Sorry for my language, I am utterly appauled.

layla Try not to worry at the moment - some tests are more sensitive than others. Try a different one tomorrow morning. Good luck.

mumtum If you are still lurking then I am so so sorry

Waves to everyone else.

Well, I keep trying to pretend I don't know what day I am on but I do know that this time last month I had already peed on 2 sticks! Am still getting a tiny bit of midcycle bleeding when wiping like the past couple of months so I am pretty sure it hasn't happened again this month as everything seems to be doing the same thing as previous months, same pains, same type of bleeding, same type of symptoms so I am having a bet with myself and seeing if I can wait til Monday to either test or see if AF turns up, I am expecting her over the weekend so we shall see.

Am bloody knackered, have been monitoring an anaesthetic for the past 5 hours and my brain feels like it will explode so have treated myself to a glass of sparkly and sat in the garden for 15 mins.

Hi Melies nope it hasn't been discussed!! I am really not sure what I will do. Suspect it won't be discussed until after AF stops and we have to make a decision (probably in the middle of DTD!).

I think he thinks despite him airing his views about wanting to wait,that we will still be trying this month because he told me he would try. He seems to think as long as he says he will it doesn't matter to me if deep down I know he really doesn't want to try yet....I suppose it depends on how much that does matter to me....

hopeful i think that is awful! So unprofessional!!!

Thanks everyone, wierd how i've never met any of you but you've been more help than alot of my friends! The one i had a rant about yesterday....i called her and got things off my chest, felt alot better afterwards :) and she apologized!

Started a new job last week and can get on mumsnet on my computer :) You may find me posting here alot more now! Anyway im off to you the ovulation calculator woooo
xxxx

Stitch great news congratulations
rue happy birthday
hopeful I am so mad for you, how unproffessional of her,
and mel v jealous I've got no sunshine in my garden today
Hello everyone else,
I'm a bit worried today as had bfn with fmu and am praying it was just because it was a different brand hpt I'm starting tho think I was imagining the line I saw yesterday

stitch great news, congratulations and a trip to ny. wow have a fantastic time.

rue happy birthday sweet. have lots of maybe dh could take you out for a meal, if you don't fancy anything major.

mel never mind the sun the dd having a nap sounds blissful to me.

Sounds lovely Melies I went out at lunch and it is just gorgeous outside.

Really No time as too much work to do before I go tonight but I do think it will be OK and not sure they would do much at this stage.

Thanks for all the good wishes

Stitch Fantastic news . Do you think you can see your specialist this week before you fly. Mind you, agree that the drugs will do their job and keep you safe.

Melies sounds blissful

Sorry and of course to everyone else, my brain is hopeless at the moment

Sorry ladies, I'm playing catch up at the moment. I didn't see Laylas post yesterday, but congratulations, what lovely news!

Hopeful on your behalf. I think your DH is right you do need to complain about that. All practitioners should know that it is as much the care they give you for your psychological wellbeing as your physical that helps a woman to conceive or to sustain a pregnancy. Your clinic will have a code of practice and she clearly fell well outside it.

Stitch NY and a line, fantastic news Congratulations

to Mel, Chloe, Olis, Wellie, Rue and to YRMOTB

Morning ladies!

Happy Birthday Really!! I shall have a glass of vino for you tonight in celebration (any excuse!)

Stitch that is really great news Congrats!!! I am sure you will be fine flying this early. Very jealous of your trip!!

Hopeful cannot believe that happened. I agree she should be reported. Some people are just so insensitive. I think I would have burst into tears if it had been me - that's what she deserves really so she can see the stress it can cause.

Brooke glad your AF has arrived! You are pretty much on the same cycle as me so we can be cycle buddies this month! Sorry about your insensitive friend. I have a friend who was super sensitive when she couldn't get pregnant and now she is pregnant she is totally oblivious to potentially upsetting others. I find that hard to believe given when she went through but she is just so excited for herself she seems to have forgotten how she felt before.

Hi to everyone else. I can't believe it is only Wed and there are still 2 and 3/4 days of work to go until the weekend. Ugh.

xxx

Thanks hopeful, I think the consultant just said that flying was a bit off limits because of my already "very sticky blood" and either I might get more clots or MC, but is is still very early so really not going to stress about it. Plus am sure I am taking enough drugs to prevent it :o

I plan to have a lovely time regardless and can't wait to eat myself silly!

Stitch congratualtions I am sooooo pleased for you. How lovely of your dh to take you to NY, so very jealous. I was told that flying does not increase risk of mc and just an old wives tale from when air stewardess's were grounded when pregnant which was proved unnecessary.

Have a lovely time

Thanks Melies - DH is taking me to New York, I really am incredibly lucky.

I do get a bit sad with not being able to talk to people about it but DH has been very supportive - just as well as he is the reason I am over here!

Really Happy birthday to you - it's mine on Saturday and I am just a little excited as DH taking me away.

This is a bit me me
Freaking out as POAS yesterday morning and very faint line, again this morning on CB digi and it says 1-2 weeks, eeek. Bit worried as technically not supposed to fly long haul if updiffed and 7 hours is borderline.

But it is still so early that I'm just going to try not to think about it too much - yeah right! Quite amazed that it happened so quickly this time and hoping it sticks around. DH was hilarious, started strutting around muttering about super sperm. FX it sticks.

Thankfully have an appointment with consultant next week anyway so can chat to her about the plan for this one, thinking it will be increased dosage on the injections as already on the aspirin and not sure there is much more they can do.

HopefulThat is awful, just so not funny at all.

Would like to say again how lovely you all are, I have lurked since my MC and have found it all so helpful and comforting that I am not alone in all this. I don't have many friends in RL in the UK (from Oz) and I haven't told anyone back home as just couldn't face it in the beginning and then email and text can be so cold. Plus the time difference drives me bonkers.

Melies wow you are a braver person than me. I strugggled through my child placement at uni as looking after sick children was really hard but looking after sick babies is even harder. But what an amazing job you do. I look after the other end, I look after adults in the community so mostly the elderly.

Really happy birthday I will join you in a birthday and cake. Hope you have a lovely day whatever you decide to do.
