The Brookers will get their BFP's by any means necessary, thats the definition of Brooking No Argument!

Beedle, a tiny amount of bleeding means nothing! Fact. Brooking so hard for you and the Beedle2. Bet it's implantation bleeding. .

Beedle, I agree with Keep's opinions on trauma or implantation. There are so many reasons for bleeding.. brooking that it's nothing at all to be worried about. I can also be here at silly o'clock with Boo, as we're having fun with Iz's molars..! So glad you're not going to the conference.

Boo, blimey, can't believe K's so big already! :)

Cups, how horrible that you overheard that :( I agree with Maybe - there's such a stigma attached to IVF that really needs to be out in the open. In fact, I wish there was some way to educate people about TTC, and sensitivity, and whatnot. A friend of mine has just got instantly PG with her DC2, after getting instantly pregnant with DC1... and just goes on and on about it.. I don't think she even realises that others struggle.

Too nothing wrong with over indulging for a birthday! :) Ah, shredding.. I've been meaning to start but am not allowed to - but DH is doing his traditional pre-Christmas shred! I've been thinking the same about clothes - am deliberately wearing some lovely things I've been bought recently, hoping they'll be too small in the near future..! .

Christmas-tastic here today. Just been asked to play for several Christmas events, and running a Christmassy choir rehearsal this evening. It's far too early :(

beedle in my esteemed opinion the bleeding will be from trauma or implantation not af. I am brooking like anything for tomorrow and so pleased you're not going to the stupid conference. Sorry I'm not in Thailand so won't be up at silly o'clock, but there are the brookers with babies who are good on the night shift. Wish I could come over and give you a hug.

cups I'm sorry you overheard that. You're really young too. I'm sure they didn't mean you left it late. I agree with maybe. We are being really open about our ivf, especially dh who drops it into conversation all the time. People often say that must have been tough. Well, for me the tough bit was not getting pregnant beforehand, because we were so lucky it worked first time the ivf itself wasn't
too bad. But I know it would have been awful if it hadn't. I'm happy now to talk about both bits.

too I have a lovely high waisted maternity pencil skirt so you could just wait to wear one like that in a few months ;)

Happy birthday Too! Over indulging is a must!!

Beedle I bled every day that I was on the crinone. I found some the applicators very sharp as well once you've twisted the top off. I'm so pleased you got out of the conference. I'm brooking so hard for tomorrow.

Cups I'm pleased you had a nice weekend, but I'm sorry you had to over hear that conversation. Please don't think any of this is 'because you left it too long'. J think people tend to make an automatic assumption that IVF is only used because you're older. So many people's reaction to our IVF was 'but you're so young'. I think it's yet another stigma attached to the whole thing. I wish it was more spoken about.

Geek how was your weekend with MrGs son?! I saw the picture on FB. They are the spitting image of each other!!

I'm so glad to hear you've sorted it out with your boss, you don't need to put yourself under any extra pressure. Are you still going to work or are you off sick? I'm keeping everything crossed for a BFP tomorrow.

I had a good time away with my friends thanks Maybe. My pregnant friend was very sensitive and barely mentioned it. I did however accidentally over hear a conversation between my two other friends about them starting to try for babies. One of them actually said "I really don't want a baby yet but I can't leave it much longer, look what's happened to Cups and MrCups" which pissed me off a bit. It wouldn't have been so bad if I'd been involved in the conversation but it hurt to hear them talking about our problems behind our backs.

Too belated 30th congratulations! I hear you on the over indulging front. I've not yet lost the 8lbs that I seem to have gained since having IVF. I've got no motivation at the moment though.

Thanks cups yes the crinone is a gel inside a plastic applicator. I hadn't thought that it could be from that.
Anyway operation-get-out-of-going-to-the-conference has been carried out - I went to speak to my boss about something work related and coughed and sounded feeble, and then told him I didn't think I would be well enough to go away. He agreed.

Beedle try not to worry, I'm sure the bleeding is nothing. How do you insert the crinone? If you use an applicator then it's most likely from that. You are bound to cause some minor trauma from repeated pessary use. It's definitely not over yet. I think you are doing the right thing by not going to the conference. You really need to look after yourself (((hugs)))

Hand-holding needed. I've had a tiny amount of bleeding, its hard to say how much as it is getting clogged up the the crinone residue I know it could be perfectly normal which is why I haven't yet collapsed into a sobbing mess.

Me and MrB have decided I won't go to the conference, either through telling my boss what's going on (if he's available today) or by telling him I'm sick - which is actually true I've got a nasty cough and I look quite rough, so I don't think that anyone would think I'm just skivving. I will almost certainly test tomorrow morning now.

Musical, because I have done nothing but pig out for the last 6 weeks, in a v extended 30th birthday celebration and I have decided to occupy the 2ww with a bit of dieting to give me something else to obsess over . I did mean to restart the Shred as well, but it's nearly 10pm and I haven't done it yet. I bought a new skirt at the beginning of October as a birthday present and it's too tight now. And I want to wear it before I get updiffed and rapidly expand out of high-waisted pencil skirts.

Also brooking hard for you Beedle.

Ooh, fajitas.. must add them to the shopping list!

Too, why are you low carbing?

Beedle, Brooking hard for Thursday. Is that OTD?

My boobs didn't hurt either

Beedle my boons didn't hurt till after the positive test. And I had no sickness till about 7 weeks and still do I'm keeping everything be crossed for you lovely x

Hope you've had a nice break Cups and that things weren't too painful with your friend.

Brooking for Thursday Beedle! There's still plenty of time for those pesky stocks to change their minds

Thanks all. I'm feeling fine about the crap non-result. If I had actually wanted to have a true result I would have used the frer, though if the ic had been positive I would, of course, have believed it :o

As for symptoms, well my boobs stopped being sore a few days ago, probably coinciding with the trigger shot leaving my body, and any other symptoms are probably being masked by the cough/cold that I seem to have picked up. Anyway no bleeding yet so the extra progesterone is doing the job.

Internet cheapies = Internet crappies fact.

Brooking you find a working pee stick later in the week beedle

Am here too, brooking and cursing ICs.
Xxxxxxx

Beedle lovely I totally get the feeling of needing to protect yourself and prepare for a bfn but it's still really early for an ic to show anything. I was getting nothing on them even when I was getting photographable lines on frer so please don't give up just yet. Perhaps waiting until after the conference might be for the best now? Huge hug and lots of love xxx

Oh Beedle lovely. But I agree with everyone else. ICa are terrible. Even with 2-3 weeks on a digi, the clinics cheapie was so faint! I also would talk to MrB. Really hope you can get out of the conference x

The IC tests are awful, and go from nothing to something very quickly too - though at the same time I was getting ridiculously faint lines for well over a week of testing everyday. Don't count yourself out just yet beedle. I don't want to overstep any boundaries, so ignore me if you want to, but I'd probably suggest telling MrB when he wakes up. You should do this together, keeping the hope alive or not. You can explain everything you know about IC and it being too early. Sorry again if this is unwelcome advice. I just know I'd want to be able to talk to my DH. Will you still chat to someone at work? See if you can get out of this conference?

Beedle Don't give up hope yet, I hate IC's! Brooking like mad for Thursday! x

Oh Beedle, there really is still time. ICs were always v faint for me. I'm switching my brooking to 11
