Loving the new thread, will need a bit to catch up all the old thread posts but read through this one and how exciting coming back to a possible triple combo of BFPs on the horizon with Grape, Maybe & Scarlett - brooking super hard for all of you. What an AM-AZ-ING start that would be for the new thread. I am already looking forward to the celebration routine Imps will have in store for us GrinGrinGrin

Hope everyone else is ok too, I will catch up later this morning, I think I saw mention of Far having good news at her scan.

Had a fantastic holiday and SWI timing was perfect with egg popping Fri so will know in about 10 days if it has the desired result. Poor DH says he doesn't have the stamina for a 2 week holiday Blush. I will be so gutted if that rat hasn't been well and truly smacked this cycle.

I will be popping back between catching up with the old thread news, doing loads of washing, going to the supermarket etc, back to work for a rest tomorrow. Wink

Oh grape deffo everything crossed, am totally sure this is your sticky bean x

So far so weird here. No cramps, no sore boobies, none of the usual symptoms but just got proper pink blood spotting [TMI] I usually get spotting of the brown variety Blush...

I'm starting to feel like my body is just taking the piss out of me now, changing everything every cycle Angry

anyhoo, I'm in a stinking mood again so I'm off to bed, see y'all tomorrow [in a metaphorical way iykwim]

shinyblackgrape · 18/03/2012 21:29

sparkle - but 8 dpo perhaps.....could be the start of something... Got everything crossed.

friend - thank you. I'm like a bloody basket case. Every twinge, I'm running off to the loo to check. Back to work tomorrow do that should help take mind of things. On Friday I was saying a silent prayer at the photocopier, thinking please let me still be pregnant when I come in on Monday. What a twit! Just need to take it a day at a time and I'll be straight at the GPs if I have another miscarriage.

generic - thank you. Hope all going well with you?

stasi - sorry re the RSI. The iPad should help though Grin

GenericDietCola · 18/03/2012 19:50

Thanks for the new fred Little! And hurrah on getting to day 24. I'm on day 22 and last cycle my AF came this day, so that's an improvement at least.

Scarlett and Maybe sorry re BFNs but I am a bit excited about the shadow Maybe and the spooky preggo magazine

Shiny well doe - am brooking for you this month.

Stasi hope you are feeling a bit better.

Hope everyone has had a nice weekend. This is the lucky thread, I can feel it rat smacketeers!

TheLittleFriend · 18/03/2012 19:12

oh grape I've got everything crossed for you my love. I understand you're feeling scared though. Symptoms are a very good sign.

maybe & Secret sorry about the bfn's. Not over for either of you yet though.

I've made it to CD24 which is a mini-triumph, as that was my longest cycle before mc, so at least so far they're not still very short.

Second not over til AF arrives. I have a fried who didn't get a bfp til 19 dpo and she had very regular cycles.

sparkle - tell more re the wine drinking. That sounds v positive!

Morning all. Sorry I've been quiet. AF was due today but for the last four days, I've had bfps. Tested yesterday with a digital and it said pregnant.

I'm absolutely shitting myself as this is the first time I've ever had bfps pre the day AF was due and this is the longest I've had a bfp with out AF starting. Sorry, I've not been on checking on how everyone else is but I've been been too frightened to post in case everything went tits up 10 mins later. I feel a bit different this time, sick- ish and tired. Last two times I haven't really had any symptoms so keeping fingers crossed.

Hope everything going well with everyone else? Off to the old thread to check how far's scan went and see what everyone else is up to.

NoMaybeAboutIt · 18/03/2012 12:33

Morning all, Happy mother's day to all, and happy soon to be mothers day to the rest of us Smile

Sorry about the BFN Scarlett I too caved in and PIACC, but BFN for me too. If I squinted I could convince myself there was a shadow, but in reality there isn't Grin Still no sign of AF here either. We can hold hands and stick this one out.

Bless Dh, he got me a pregnancy magazine yesterday, because, and I quote 'it's going to be your time soon, I just know it'. strange sixth sense? One hopes.... Wink

Love to all, am off to see my Mummy today, and shower her with knitted goods!

whimsicalname · 18/03/2012 12:01

Happy mother's day everyone. No doubt a particularly poignant day for many of us for various reasons. I'm celebrating in my office by myself having missed a day's work with an ill child during the week. The joys of motherhood!

ScarlettInSpace · 18/03/2012 11:36

Morning all, BFN for me so no ironic Mothers Day celebrations still no sign of AF whatsoever though so we'll see, will leave the tests alone til Weds. Hope all the current and future mums have a nice day today! x

Stasi · 18/03/2012 10:58

Morning all. Sorry I've been AWOL. Still having trouble with the RSI in my hand, so avoiding computers and trying to spend time on other things. No BFP last month, and we're just starting our swi for this cycle.

far was overjoyed to read your scan update. I hope you've decided on a course of action for lunch with your mum. I think I'd probably tell mine, but not sure.

I did read everyone's news, but as I had 8 pages to read back I've forgotten most of what everyone said. I hope maybe has piar today, and will be waiting for the good news.

I should be better at keeping in touch from now on, I bought myself the new iPad :)

We're off to the in laws today for lunch, so I should go get dressed! Will catch up more later.

GreenOlives · 18/03/2012 10:42

Sparkle Not really but then I guess that's because I have DS

Lovely new thread, thanks Little!

Right, have you ladies confirmed your obvious Mothers day BFPs yet?

I am supposed to be enjoying a lie in but the Pred has had me awake since 4am yesterday and today! I am still in bed though with the laptop and a nice bacon and fried egg sandwich - yummy! And DH and DS have made a delicious looking lemon meringue pie for pud later, I am very impressed!

Maybe I hope that you are feeling a lot better my lovely because a 5 mile walk followed by 4 hours on the allotment does not sound like taking it easy! The fresh air is good for you though, but don't be overdoing it. I am very jealous because DH and DS went to help my Dad with his new allotment yesterday whilst I was at work. Apparently DS LOVED using his dibber to plant the spuds and he was full of excitement telling me all about it this morning! He can't wait to go back and help out again!

PopcornMouseInBoots · 18/03/2012 09:37

Has maybe poas yet?? My temps dipped almost to baseline when I got my bfp so it doesn't mean anything that they've not risen! (no idea what they're doing now, i stopped temping as it made me all stressy). So poas already!

Evening! Off to bed, catch up tomorrow - have been busy practising new routines for Maybe and Scarlet's BFP all day and have not had the chance to chat.

BartletForAmerica · 17/03/2012 22:46

Quick hello before bed

NoMaybeAboutIt · 17/03/2012 19:14

Oh no Sparks! Hope you're ok. A drink is well deserved me thinks Smile

Very true Whims
