Do you like feeling left out of a group? Do you enjoy being marginalised and isolated and picked-on? How about a good bullying? If so..you're in t'wrong place, cock, coz this 'ere is the TTC thread where you feel loved, embraced, encouraged, wanted, lusted after, admired, respected, thought-of with fondness, missed when you're away. We will even put up with your lazy, selfish bastard of a husband who would rather watch Chelsea romp through the Premiership than put a baby in your tum-tum.

Absolutely any old slag welcome, unless you already have a baby in your tum-tum and we're about as familiar with you as a condom. You can get lost Smile

t'STATS, innit

Pixa · 15/04/2015 23:02

I am a bit AWOL at the minute but just popped on to say best of luck to Purdie for tomorrow. Smile

purdiepie · 15/04/2015 22:58

Aw, thanks for all t'good luck wishes. Listen, th'interview's only at 3pm in t'next town so I'll be knocking around in t'morning. I'm not nervous whatsoever. Why? Because I look reet nice in me new outfit and let's face it: they're getting free labour for eight weeks. I'm doing them a favour, right? I just hate that question that always comes up at interview: 'So..you haven't worked for eight years. Can you explain what you've been doing?' 'Yeah..er..lapdancing, drugs, thieving, getting locked up, getting sacked, dogging, escorting, been in rehab and since then nowt.' 'Ah. Yes. Perfect. When can you start?' Hmm

Good luck Purdie !
You'll smash it Smile

purdiepie · 15/04/2015 22:54

What's the paddle for? Spanking? Ugh. Last bloke who tried that is drinking out of a straw for the rest of his life.

I'm going to have to catch up because I see there's mega interesting stuff from Ibeka..

Mary, you have always struck me as warm, witty and an all-round good egg. No way have your friends arranged that meet-up behind your back out of malice. More likely they have had this arrangement for some time and not wanted you there in the company of a baby - and quite right too. You don't need that right now Thanks

What's going on in your life lately, lovely?

Sparkly, please, please arrange for those B vitamin injections. I have a really strong feeling they would bring much health to your LP. Sending loads of love and bravery tomorrow. How amazing if that FMU stick revealed a big bold line in the morning Thanks

Good luck for t'interview purdie

Spinning, my birthday is 30th August. I was always the youngest in my year, which I loved. Can you imagine if I was born now? I'd be skipping a year innit! Seriously though, tons of my peers were almost a year older than me!

I can't possibly catch up, I'm only on page 1 Hmm I am revising for my interview tomorrow. Doing well so far: I've memorised what IT stands for.

Eek let us know ibeka.

As if to prove my point, OH is now ironing bedding while I'm watching TV. I never iron anything ever.

ibeka · 15/04/2015 22:37

Thanks guys, it is good to know only... It's something that at the moment they know causes MC but don't know how to treat! The trial is seeing if hormones work. If they give me the hormones and it does, great, but there's a 50%chance I'll get the placebo, I'll never know! And if I say no thanks to the trial and take my results to the GP, all they can say is 'yes, we know there is a correlation between that and miscarriage. Unfortunately there's no treatment yet'. I think it's different to normal thyroid problems as these antibodies can be present with 'normal' thyroid function (which I know I have as I was tested when being diagnosed with depression). Women only know they have them usually after repeated MCs or with thyroid problems that start during pregnancy/shortly after.... I think I read it makes you 3 times as likely to miscarry, so still a good chance of a healthy pregnancy, but I'll still be a nervous wreck! Anyway, we'll see what they say tomorrow...

Woolly84 · 15/04/2015 22:36

Hehe mummy how dare he raise your hopes your like that! More to the point though, you have a naughty drawer?! Shock searches for spare drawer in the house

sparkly good luck for tomorrow lovely Flowers

Oysterbabe · 15/04/2015 22:33

That's my idea of hell Mummy !
I'm like a shopping ninja, in and out in the shortest possible time.

chopsface · 15/04/2015 22:33

LOVE IKEA! Its a day out for me too :-D

Thinking of you tomorrow sparkly x

Mummyofonesofar · 15/04/2015 22:24

Ah new thread with 2 pages already!! Purds great intro! The outfit sounds fab, do us proud girly Grin

Eskimo Fanks for hugs! love em! I promise I was laughing out loud to your sperm story, even his luke warm bath – bless him!! LTB – brilliant descriptions! I read some out to DP and he got into bed and said LTB to me, then proceeded to lift his own Hmm

Marys your friend sounds stupid, stick with us!

Sparkly not long at all to wait now, your posts are sounding very positive. It is so awful that you are going through this again – it sounds like you have had lots of good advice from purds and her friend. I hope the clinic form a plan with you tomorrow.

Osyter I also love Ikea, no idea where my nearest is now. I would walk slowly around every section even if I know what I have gone for – it was like a day out for me. I am very sad I know.

ibeka great news if they can give you some meds to stop the mcs, at least you will have a plan of attack. Your sticky BFP will come. Hairy legs – I popped my running ¾ lengths on (which I never run in) for yoga last night and realised my legs needed doing. I was so lazy that I did them over the sink using handwash…. I am a disgrace.

Me update, rather than staring at MN/facebook/FF I cleaned my car inside and out as needed to put it on ebay, then DP suggested an early night so came upstairs with the laptop to catch up and he reaches into the 'naughty' drawer, feels around for a bit and brings out a paddle, I have a cold and really couldn't be bothered tonight but I then felt very dissapointed that he used it to scratch his back with, popped it back and rolled over to soon start snoring Let down!

Woolly84 · 15/04/2015 22:24

That was meant to be a Grin not Sad aux!

Woolly84 · 15/04/2015 22:23

aux I loved your prediction on the last bus about men and TTC haha Sad if only....!

night sorry you had a bad day lovely Flowers

Gah, struggling to keep up on the bus with stupid work getting in the way! Watching First Dates, amusing Grin

Oysterbabe · 15/04/2015 22:22

That'd do it Juney!!

My OH is the woman in this relationshipSmile He's a graphic designer so he really cares about design and the appearance of things. I couldn't give a shit.

frogbubbles · 15/04/2015 22:22

Blumming heck, forgot to add to last post....

Good luck for tomorrow sparkly one Smile

Sparkly123 · 15/04/2015 22:18

Thanks Spinning yep 9am tomorrow.

Oyster usually it's the woman dragging the dh round ikea! Ha ha. The most important question is...Did you get an Ice cream on the way out?!

Juney the chances are HIGH you!! HIGH!

Nomio what's your app at Tomor? Good luck!!

ibeka brewing beer?! That's pretty good going! Sorry you are feeling so low, I know you will have bad days but you will pick yourself up again. And you are right, knowledge is power. It there is an issue you know it can be rectified right? I saw a lot in the news recently about that emmerdale girl or was it corrie??.. Adele Silva? She had three mc until she went private and found out about thyroid issues/NK cells etc and when she got pregnant they gave her meds to counteract the problems and dada! Baby girl. So I really do think finding these things out, although hard, is the answer.. And could be the thing that brings you closer to your baby in the end as a cause may be found.. That they can fix! Keep strong lovely and good luck Tomor. Thank you for study info gonna look at it with dh now!

Pikz yeh I wouldn't be taken on for those hosps as too far thank you though!

Glitters get the wax out! Ha ha. Yes beta bloods Tomor and scan and urine test. The whole shebang. I'm gonna look at prog info now so we are informed with what to say! Still doubt they will give me it.

Cariad so glad all good in your scan!!! We miss you on here!

babs could be a symptom! Fingers crossed!

eskimo one more day! You are almost there!!! Oh and love that run down of LTB! Ha

Purds all set for the interview?!? How's that coldy thing?

Thanks to all you lovely ladies for good wishes for Tomor. Of course I shall update you all as soon as!

Purplecuddlykoala14 · 15/04/2015 22:17

Love the opening post purdie
Good luck tomorrow sparkly
oyster your DH to be willingly goes to IKEA?
ibeka that study sounds interesting wonder how long it takes for the results to be published.
aux my spelling is atrocious sometimes even autocorrect struggles to come up with suggestions.
Hope everyone else is ok.
