Still lurking so just wanted to say big congratulations rock fab news. Really hope this one is sticky.

Gd luck sal after those efforts you really deserve a bfp. Glad the wedding went well.

So so sorry over that sounds truly awful.

mrse hurry up AF or even better bfp.

Really sorry AF got you aly hope this is your month.

Hope to see lots more bfps soon. I'll probably lurk for a while. I've bkd an early scan but don't think I'll feel very confident until after 12wks (if I get there).

Fed up- I quite like my new name Grin that makes me loveable and also top trumps most men!
Saggy- hoist away I mean how silly
Fantastic news rock!!! Congratulations!!!
When talking blue evap lines does that mean they are never there and you are up diffed ( in early days) ? Or do you mean they come as blue line and evap? I am confused.
How was your night over ? How you feeling today? Hope the chic was yummy yummy!
Hello everyone else hope you are all doing well xx

aly I am ashamed to say I've never watched ghost! It's on my list. (Impressed by your crafting skills too...) Was helping a friend clear out clutter from her flat this week and going through piles of DVDs - dirty dancing, pretty woman, Thelma and Louise, when Harry met Sally...needless to say, none of them got thrown out. Just about managed to stop ourselves from watching them all right there and then.

mrse I really hope your BFP or AF arrives soon too. Fingers crossed for you and sal!

squiggly thanks so much for the recommendation - that's great, will check them out. Funnily enough I'm literally just up the road in forest hill! emki was it the dulwich therapy rooms you were thinking of too? Or someone else?

Happy weekend everyone! X

alyant79 · 21/06/2013 23:12

mrsE I really really hope that af (or a bfp!!) arrives for you soon

alyant79 · 21/06/2013 23:11

rock that's fab news!

Jealous of all the great sounding fri nights. I've been home alone with dd sleeping upstairs. I cut out some fabric to make myself a dress (an attempt to Sod's law myself into getting knocked up) and watched some tv. Patrick swayze in ghost - nice. Party time in chez aly.

Squigglypig · 21/06/2013 23:03

Rockchick congratulations! That is such great news!

birdsdoit I can vouch for dulwich therapy rooms too. On Lordship Lane - I tried it for 3 cycles and might go back next month (am off on holiday at beginning of July so no point starting this month for me). Plan your first visit for just before ovulation date and be prepared for a lot of intimate questions about your flow.

Night night!

OveranxiousUnderated · 21/06/2013 22:42

Congrats Rockchick x Sending you lots of good luck Thanks

It's so lovely to read all of your kind words, it helps to vent.

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 21/06/2013 22:41

WOOOHOOO! Grin GO ROCKCHICK!

Emki · 21/06/2013 22:35

I mean 'to' a lovely weekend - mning on phone and always make so many mistakes!!! Xx

Emki · 21/06/2013 22:33

Great rockchick we needed that - very exciting x take each day as it comes x

birds I also know someone in dulwich who is very good -
Sounds like you had a good night - here's too a lovely weekend for us - I do like Saturday mornings - no rushing!! Though must go for a run and sort myself out!!!! Xx

BirdsDoIt · 21/06/2013 22:22

Woooooh rockchick exciting!!! Congrats! Are you going to poas again in a couple of days to see if it's darker? (Stupid question, yes of course you are, but will you wait till Sunday or do it tmrw?) xx

BirdsDoIt · 21/06/2013 22:20

over I'm so sorry to hear your news. I'm really sad for you. What a horrible experience. As others have said I hope you have a lot of very loving people looking after you and are barricaded in with dairy milk, hot chocolate, box sets and all your favourite films for whenever you need them! Sending you much love and a huge hug.

Haven't been on for a few days but thanks very much for the acupuncture/reflexology tips - I'm in south London so muswell/Notting hill a bit tricky so I think I'll have to venture beyond this thread for some googling! Good idea to look for
traditional places to save some money.

So according to fertility friend / bbt I ovulated 7 days ago but I think it may have been just a few days ago. Hmm. Well, we'll just see when AF turns up. Was wondering if my achey cervix (which just came up on predictive text as 'shy xerox', amusing) was a weirdly early pg symptom but then realised it's prob because of all the DTD! Though I am having some curious twinges - but not letting myself think anything of it. Attempting to view this first cycle of bbt'ing as a trial run before we get into ttc ing properly...

Have just had two very delicious cocktails in town and on my way back home a bit pissed with DH so the weekend has started well Smile

fedup love the dancing in the kitchen and sal the bosom hoiking!

GuffSmuggler · 21/06/2013 22:09

Rockchick1984 · 21/06/2013 21:52

Over I'm so sorry you've had such a tough time of it! Just proves that your own instincts can know best - you knew something wasn't right from the start and thankfully it was caught before it went any further Thanks

I think I may have a BFP - tested again this morning and slightly less faint second line. Left it out during the day and checked again this evening and is now a fairly strong line - nervous, excited, terrified, unconvinced all at the same time!!

Emki · 21/06/2013 21:40

I'm not IN the wine though does sound fun! X

Emki · 21/06/2013 21:39

Ditto I also think you over are amazingly strong - {{{hugs}}} and hope that diary milk is good xxx

dildo fingers crossed for you xx

I'm in the wine too - I've actually let all healthily eating go out the window this last few days ... However shall do exercise tomorrow and from now on!!! I will!! I find it hard when ttc to diet and fear it will effect the process ... However eating chocolate etc probably doesn't help either!!

excited I feel for you it took over 10 weeks for AF to arrive for me after erpc!! It was so frustrating! Xxx

Emki · 21/06/2013 21:21
SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 21/06/2013 21:04

dildo (sorry that is your name now!) I am sorry about the bfn but yes it is two days early and it's not over til af arrives (and if you are me and unfortunately af does arrive, you may still POAS for a laugh after AF in case you were one of those in a million who have a period when preggers)
Disgraceful! I wouldn't dream of doing anything like that! every month
Grin

fedupofrainydays · 21/06/2013 20:42

I think you are pretty amazing over. Think i would be a big mess if that happened to me. You're very strong. Def indulge in that chocolate and whatever else you fancy.
It's Friday and I'm on the wine.

dildo (sorry that is your name now!) I am sorry about the bfn but yes it is two days early and it's not over til af arrives (and if you are me and unfortunately af does arrive, you may still POAS for a laugh after AF in case you were one of those in a million who have a period when preggers)

Hang in there mrs excited like you say, you have no idea when af is due. After my erpc I had no idea what was going on it was pretty horrid.

Sal you would be my heroine if you waited even til next Friday, never mind 3 months!!!!!!

Have a good weekend all - this is our one for DTD action. Stocking up on the preseed and the wine. Odd combo but feel I need it!!

OveranxiousUnderated · 21/06/2013 19:53

Thank you everybody for your kind words Thanks

I am currently demolishing a large bar of dairy milk. I feel 'okay' emotionally but waiting for the tears to kick in over the next few days.

All I want to do is try again and get pregnant. Wish I could fast forward a few weeks. But I know I need to rest and recover properly.

MrsExcited · 21/06/2013 19:52

Over that sounds really tough, sending lots of hugs.

I haven't been around much lately had started to lose posifrickintivity and gradually stopped reading.

I am tomorrow 13 weeks post ERPC and still have no sign of AF - Grrrr

We have bonked like mad, overdone it, bonked like mad again, had a bugger of a tooth infection and then bonked gently last week, at the same time as having a blood test where i was told that it was clear i was ovulating but she would refer me to gyne to see.

So that was last Thursday (13th) and for the last few days i am feeling something and my DH is believing it, been caught by 3 different people looking "pale" so hopefully POAS'd this morning for a BFN but something inside say don't give up hope but as AF hasn't arrived so far i have no idea when to test!

So Sal i shall join you in your wait, it would be ironic as we were only a few days apart at MC - Good luck

PS - Sal i hope your big day went off with fireworks!! sorry i wasn't around at the time!

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 21/06/2013 19:33

Over I'm so so sorry my lovely. I wish I could give you a real {{{hug}}}. Hopefully you will recover quickly physically.
My MC was ectopic on an ovary. Thankfully I had a lucky escape and MC, so kept my tube. In hindsight, the PG just didn't feel right from the start, I was incredibly stressed and worried from the beginning.

Tomkat79 · 21/06/2013 17:37

Sending you lots of love over. I always tell people never trust the medics and this just confirms it! I work with loads of people who have UTI's and I've never come across any of them to have all those symptoms!

Lol sal can you imagine waiting for 3 missed periods! Torture.

CD 14 here, have been bonking like mad all week and guess same again tonight. Must find some energy to spice it up! Does leaving the light on count?! ;)

dildoos · 21/06/2013 17:11

Aly- they are the best types of weekend fun ! Enjoy x

alyant79 · 21/06/2013 17:06

oh bugger dildoos

visiting a friend who i haven't seen for almost a year tomorrow, hooray! That's my nice thing for the week.
