Sorry about AF Me Thanks if you can, try to get completely obsessed with something else for a while - that's what I did and it worked!
And Thanks about work Tori. It must be really difficult being in that environment, but keep your chin up and it will happen for you.
Cupcake, I know exactly how you feel and I'm so sorry to hear you're at work, it must be dreadful. Thanks
I've got to the point where the mere thought of food is making me run to the toilet retching. It's horrible. I called my doc this morning but missed her callback because I was in the loo! Hope she rings back soon and prescribes me something - I don't think I can take much more of this and I'm only 5 or 6 weeks Sad
I emailed my boss and told him to take me off the timetable and that if there's no work for me by the time I feel better then so be it.

Cupcake92 · 18/08/2014 09:15

I know how u feel Me :( don't give up it'll happen!

At work and I can hardly work properly. The smell of breakfast is making want to throw up :( I feel awful.

bradders85 · 18/08/2014 08:55

sorry af has arrived me, I've had a bit of pink blood yesterday on CD 23 which I think could be the start of af- but it would make it a shorter cycle than usual! Typical!
welcome to all the newbies too and good luck Grin

kismac · 18/08/2014 08:18

Aww Me, I'm sorry. Fingers crossed next month will be your month.

Me624 · 18/08/2014 07:54

It's just so disheartening Sad I'm normally pretty upbeat about this ttc stuff but I just seem to be surrounded by people at work, on fb etc announcing their pregnancies. Think I will take a little break from the thread for a while ... I'll be back for my next 2ww though!

KirstyLeigh87 · 18/08/2014 07:45

I'm sorry ME...got a strong feeling I'll be joining you soon so at least u won't be on your own bug hugs xxx

Haha Ducky I love that film!! Poor you though feeling like that! Xxx

Ducky23 · 18/08/2014 07:42

I can't wait for all of this cupcake!

Has everyone seen the movie the Santa Claus? I feel like that at the moment, going to work in joggers and a hoody cus it's the only thing I can manage to squeeze on as all my maternity stuff is in the wash! Confused I look like a right frump! Grin

Cupcake92 · 18/08/2014 07:33

Sorry Me :( I hate AF she just doesn't understand that she needs to buggar off! I really hope next months ur month Me :(

And I know Ducky Grin I've had worse tho!

Ducky23 · 18/08/2014 07:27

Sorry me Hmm

Haha cupcake that's gross!!! GrinGrinGrin

Me624 · 18/08/2014 07:21

Good morning AF Sad

Cupcake92 · 18/08/2014 07:20

Lulu that's lovely DH got to feel baby!!! :) bet he was over the moon!

And Tori I'm sorry uve had a bad day :( hugs ur way. As everyone and urself say, it's the worst day over it'll get easier from now. Hope ur okay Thanks

Well I could not keep my eyes open again last night. I'm so tired recently! And this morning DS was so gross haha! He was sat eating his last bit of toast then suddenly threw up! But it all landed just on his plate. Then he carried on eating his toast.... Children are so strange sometimes lol

Bearsinmotion · 18/08/2014 06:57

Sorry to hear that Tori, but like Lulu says, hopefully that's the worst day over.

DP and I split fairly evenly I think. I do all the cooking otherwise we'd eat beans every day and washing, and look after finances, DP does all the bins, the hoovering, garden and all the yucky stuff. Yesterday he defrosted the fridge and freezer - it was a fun weekend!

Lulu, my DP has a very loud! carrying voice. When I was expecting DD he would talk to the bump and that would make her kick!

Ducky23 · 18/08/2014 06:47

Tori that must have been difficult Thanks

LuluJakey1 · 18/08/2014 00:13

I'm sorry today was so tough Tori but you have had the worst day now and I think you are right; it will get easier and normal again. FX Thanks

Kirsty, your symptoms do sound positive. I've been especially scatterbrained the past week and yesterday after pouring boiling water into my mug I tried to put the steaming kettle in the tea cupboard!! I also had (and still have) a lot of cm which was one of the things that made me realise I might have been pg. fx!!
My Dp has been really helpful today and looked after me loads (despite laughing at my dry heaves over the toilet as a result of smelling his garlic breath this morning!)
I usually do most of the housework but he does the cooking if he's at home and he does work more hours than me. He's in training to put his dirty clothes in the laundry basket instead of by it at the moment!

LuluJakey1 · 17/08/2014 22:37

Did you have a tough day Tori?

LuluJakey1 · 17/08/2014 22:36

We are in bed and the baby has been really moving and kicking. And for the first time DH has felt it. Every time up to now when I have said ' Now, now' and he has rushed over and put his hand on the bump, it has stopped or he just has not been able to feel it.
But tonight I was lying on my back and the baby was really kicking or wriggling or whatever and I said ' He's kicking'. DH put his hand on the bump and then his head and he could hear and feel it. He is over the moon. I am so glad it has happened because I know he has felt left out. He has had a chat to his son through the bump! Told him about the drum he has bought him and the Bradford City strip. Grin There was no response! Perhaps he will be a Toon supporter- DH says over his dead body.

Me, I agree with cupcake! Test again in a few days! Increased CM is a good sign so hopefully you just tested too early! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you. My CM has decreased to almost nothing and have been having lower back ache and slight cramping so I'm guessing it's more than likely I'm out this cycle Confused xx

LuluJakey1 · 17/08/2014 20:50

Oh Cupcake, I wish your DH was nicer to you and would grow up a little bit.

Mine would drive you mad mind. He is lovely but he has his moments like they all do. I think I have mentioned the picking skin off his fingers before. I hate it. And the waking me up in the middle of the night to talk to me when he can't sleep. And the untidiness - he puts books everywhere and leaves shoes everywhere. He opens his mouth and puts his foot in it and digs himself big holes and just keeps going - I am left astonished by his lack of subtlety at times. There are times I could cheerfully clatter him one with a frying pan.

But he has his good points as well and I wouldn't swop him - although ask me tomorrow because at the minute he wants us to go camping. I HATE. camping and he is harping on.

Cupcake92 · 17/08/2014 20:47

Wait a couple more days and test again Me!! :) good luck and fx on that bfp!!!!

Me624 · 17/08/2014 20:44

Welcome Kirsty! Fx you get a bfp this month. I'm just a month behind you, ttc #1 on cycle 4.

Well I'm still on cycle 4, just, as AF hasn't turned up yet. I got a bfn on Friday night. Today is cd32. I keep thinking AF has come and nipping to the loo but it's just cm. I never get any symptoms before AF so really no idea whether she's coming or not! Cycles so far since I came off the pill were 36, 32, 30 so I could just be having another long one. I don't want to POAS again as another bfn will just disappoint me!

Cupcake92 · 17/08/2014 20:30

Steph how nice! :) sounds lovely!!!

And all of u have such lovely DH's I'm jealous!!

I'm really hungry but I feel so so sick :( evenings ms is the worst. But tonight I feel more worse than usual :(

Siarie · 17/08/2014 20:08

When we were both working DH and me shared the cleaning and cooking. But now I don't work and am a house wife I do all the cleaning and cooking, which I think is a great deal yay for not having to wake up every weekday and go to work.

But I'm sure DH will do some food if I get bad MS in the coming weeks, he's been warned and just said jokingly he would get takeaway lol! Although round these parts the takeaways don't have to be unhealthy at all so I'm game for that.
