Barking I know AF isn't something to celebrate but being as this cycle was clearly a crap one, its great to war your body seems to have got back with the program. FX for a Xmas BFP for you- assume you're going with the clomid again?

BlueBirdy · 06/12/2013 16:41

Erg Barking well done you for being strong (or even for just pretending to be around others)! And hoping your cycle is now properly back on track so the clomid can work its magic once again!

Oh my goodness Boodle and Merk, had a proper lol moment at you two. So are the two 'no comment biscuits' supposed to be boobs? Haha! And Boodle that thread was an interesting read!

Well normally I get a week of spotting before AF arrives and it's due on Sunday, but have had absolutely none this cycle, so can't even get my hopes up even if it always is for no good reason Hmm

Hope all the teacher berries are coping with all the work that needs doing before term ends! Actually this is my busiest time of year too, but I'm still usually back home by 2pm - I feel so lazy compared to the rest of you!

I think I'd have been better off in naked berry HQ tonight than going to staff do, sitting next to bump and maternity leave woman, then returning home to more work that needed to be done by tomorrow.

Oh, and AF has arrived. Early.
Grin for it finally turning up without needing tablets more than 3 months post mc. Angry for it actually being here at all.

Angry Angry for pg colleague stroking well developed baby bump and maternity colleague showing photos of baby.

Sleepy time now.

Looking good Berries!

DP and I realised tonight that it was a year ago today we got engaged so we cracked open a bottle of bubbly. And on a school night too, hic!

Phwoar!!! What sexy ladies Grin

CatsCantFlyFast · 05/12/2013 22:34

Luckily my slanket thanks MIL hasn't made an appearance I'm wrapped in a knitted throw instead

BoodleDoo · 05/12/2013 22:20

Oh yes! I forgot my socks! Not woolly though, more of a felt with funky multi-coloured patterning.

God, we're sexy.

CatsCantFlyFast · 05/12/2013 22:18

Boodle we sound like twins, I'm in PJs, glasses, wooly socks and a towel on my head! Would like to say its cos DH is away but I doubt it'd be much different if he was here Shock

BoodleDoo · 05/12/2013 22:16

It's an old tradition, Win - if it gets quiet, get naked! Grin

Biscuit Biscuit

BoodleDoo · 05/12/2013 22:15

A little sneak preview you for you...Ba ha haaaaaaaaaaaa!

In reality, I am sat in my PJs, hair wrapped in a towel, and my nerd glasses on. Phwoar. It's a good job DH isn't here, otherwise I don't know how he'd be able to resist...

winohhh · 05/12/2013 22:14

Argh!! what have I walked in on??! :)

Bunnygirlie · 05/12/2013 22:13

BoodleDoo · 05/12/2013 20:50

Oh no - it really did kill the thread!

BoodleDoo · 05/12/2013 19:40

Not sure...I think it might have killed the thread...!

barkingtreefrog · 05/12/2013 18:14

Nice new name!

BoodleDoo · 04/12/2013 23:26

The comments did give me the rage a bit, but an interesting, if very sad, read.

barkingtreefrog · 04/12/2013 22:36

feather I probably would just up the dose if it wasn't for the fact that 50mg did work last time as evidenced by the bfp, which makes me think
maybe my body still hasn't sorted itself out after the mc and it's more to do with that than the clomid. But then I also know that some women don't ovulate every cycle on clomid, but they do on some. Yes,bunny, a little monitoring to give me a clue what's going on would be appreciated, but isn't going to happen!

Happy with everything so busy at work I haven't got any further with the dress, hoping to get back to it over Christmas Smile .

Boodle is this going to be one of those threads I wish I hadn't clicked on because comments from stupid people will make me Angry ?!

Bunnygirlie · 04/12/2013 22:19

Angry DH is back from day at the races, after promising me he would take it easy he is drunk! I am so not amused!!!

Boodle9 · 04/12/2013 21:20

Anyone read this today? Let me keep my dead husband's sperm

Some of the comments are making me Sad and Angry. Crippling period pain and a stupid road rage incident on the way home may not be helping my mood!

It's going to need altering as I ordered a size bigger than I need in case by some miracle I do end up diffed How's your dress coming along Barking? And yes I say definitely go for the alcohol option over Xmas Xmas Grin
