But that is a very low temp for me Tock normally my baseline is around 98! Very bizzare. How are you feeling lovely? Still in a daze?!

Sweetie trench foot is a possibility Grin I am still at the train station, trains are up the wall. Would have been so much nicer at home with tea!

clickingtock · 02/05/2012 08:45

Imps - you did me proud. Lovely to see you albeit briefly.

Sparks - still holding out for your BFP!! I really did tell AF for once and for all. Grin @ 'rainburn'.

Maybe - poor love, how are you feeling now?A high temp for 2 weeks is good though, no? Are you pg?!!!

farfallarocks · 02/05/2012 08:32

I was getting worried about imps and lack of gym display, glad to see her back here!

Are you actually having to do some work in your new job then? Wink

SweetieDoesIt · 02/05/2012 08:12

Maybe you might have picked up a bit of a bug trench foot from all the rain

Sparks I am clueless, not sure where to even begin. If you get a minute PM any apps worth having and anything else really. Not even sure what they can do. thanks lovely

NoMaybeAboutIt · 02/05/2012 08:10

Imps!!!! You're back!! With a bang! Hurrah for the iphone

Sweetie you will love it. I got rid of mine for a blackberry. Big mistake

Sparks this is looking very promising indeed. Don't worry about bfn. If implantation happened yesterday, you won't get a BFP for a few days.

I feel a bit funny today, sicky and weird in my lower tummy. Hopefully this strange cycle is ending. My temp is still 97.6. It hasn't budged for 2 weeks!

Aw Sparks sorry about the BFN, still it isn't over yet especially with the temp rise too. Brooking for you my dear.

Imps as usual you did yourself proud, fabulous BFP celebration routine. Nice to see you back.

Poor Beedle hope you sunburn calms down, not sure you will get much sympathy as it has done nothing but rain torrentially for weeks months here.

I have ordered an iPhone too, I have a work Blackberry and thought it was just too much to cart around. But I have taken the plunge and it should be here any day. Any tips ladies who are already with the 21st century generation?

imps you're alive :o excellent gymnastic display as usual, though I did rather like whims' tango man yesterday. Are you going to come and join us on our not-so-secret facebook group so we can be sure that you're not a 50 year old man pretending to be a woman trying to get pregnant :o

I thought you'd all like me to share with you that it was so sunny here yesterday I actually got a bit sunburnt Blush - my face doesn't look like that I had sun cream on my face but the tops of my arms are a bit pink and warm. But don't worry the forecast for the weekend is 7 deg and rain

sparkle when will you be PIAR? today?? tomorrow???

Sorry on phone. X

clickingtock · 01/05/2012 21:10

Sweetie - sounds so positive for you. I feel your BFP is v close. Yes PMed that helpful MNer. She was bowled over. Everyone here is so brill and thoughtful. She herself took 10am years to get her baby due us a few weeks. Limey.

Sparks I have garotted AF for you.

Calamityboo · 01/05/2012 20:57

:( Just found out that a lying cheating poor excuse of a woman has just had her third baby. Why does it seem so easy for some, and the rest of us have to fight so bloody hard for everything.

Iyswim = If You See What I Mean

cartoonface · 01/05/2012 20:03

Iyswim?

Sorry to hear about your bad day, sparks and sweetie, hope the evening perks up for you both.

tock, I'd be really interested to hear the results of the second SA, and what you did differently. Poor MrGeek is walking around rattling like a tube of smarties at the moment, I have given him so many extra tablets to take (on top of his ever lengthening list of diabetes related stuff poor lad). Today's addition was Wellman Conception. He got off lightly though - thought I was going to have to feed him pycnogenol as well, until I read the wellman box properly and realised it already contains pine bark extract. Three months is a flipping long time to wait for an improvement though - thank goodness for Boots three for two offers!

little thank you :)

cartoon I'm sorry I can only offer you hugs and an ear, I've no advice and would dread to think how I would cope with a mc. The other ladies on here are fab though.

~waves carrot cake in sweetie's direction - it's good for you, I lost two pounds this week thanks to the wonderful carrot cake diet LOL~

TheLittleFriend · 01/05/2012 19:46

Hi everyone

Still all pleased and smiley about smegs and beantock Smile

cartoon When I had a mc in Jan, I was just 11 weeks when it happened, but was told that the foetus had probably stopped growing before 7 weeks. Part of me found this very hard to cope with, because I was 'less' pregnant than I thought, but it also meant that the pregnancy really was never at all viable, which helped slightly. Anyway, all I'm trying to say is that I know what you are going though and I don't mind talking about it helps Smile x

whims your tango-ing made me laugh out loud, and maybe, you did too by saying you had been 'all sage and shizzle'. GrinGrin

Welcome back geek

CD9 now, low on the cbfm today as expected, but started shag week last night anyway.

SweetieDoesIt · 01/05/2012 19:36

Evening all

Been another busy day on the brooking thread.

Tock/Bean so pleased you are now a PSEPP, I am so chuffed for you. Are you going to PM that other MNer who gave you her advice on timing? I saw the thread where she was sharing her tips. I am sure she will be delighted for you.

Fluff I wish I knew these people who are grieving for an unborn child of the wrong gender, I will happily take it off her hands. How Sad though.

Sparks I have had a complete 'mare of a day too, get your tea and maybe a glass of something, just one won't hurt.

Cartoon everyone has highs and lows on their TTC journey. You are among friends now who understand what you are going through, it is really helpful to let it out IYSWIM. {{{hugs}}}

Whims maybe you just tested a bit early. Give it a couple more days.

Did someone mention carrot cake???

Another Smile on CBD OPK today, not sure what is going on as never had any positive result on these before and now I have 2 days in a row. Defo think egg is popping as have been very crampy all day, actually quite painful now. Maybe things are a bit more tender after the HSG. Anyone else noticed this?

Popping off to watch Homelands from Sunday - might have something cold alcoholic to drink Wink
