We're Gonna Need A Bigger Sleigh!!! December Hopeful's say AYE!

anyone out there? i went to have dinner (and a massive heartburn episode - think i'm allergic to alcohol) but i'm back now if anyone else has no life on a friday night and wants a chat

Greedy sweetie just wanted to give you hugs. AF is an evil old witch...can I once again recommend the healing power of a twix??

dp just back with Frida-night takeaway. Back later if you want to chat

I have been on mn for a couple of years. I have another name for the non-ttc threads , but don't tell anyone!

I do come on here every day, at least to read, as the pc is always on for work, but other than this thread I don't really post that much.

I told myself this month that I was going to stay off for a while, so I didn;t get too obsessed (yeah right) but I keep wanting to catch up with everyone else.

Hope you don't leave, even for a break, but I will understand if you do. Christmas can be stressful enough without constant ttc-obsessing!

have you been on MN for long? i feel like you probably have. do you ever take a break or feel like you need to? do you check everyday? and if not how do you keep up with evrything?

yippee someone to talk to!!!!
my ds said he was going to 'magic' my dd to be as small as a seed. and when i asked what he meant he said.....'you know the seed daddy puts in your tummy, the baby seed!'
he is only 3.5!

Oops, forgot to send big hugs because af arrived Really sorry, she's a bitch, isn't she? Don't blame you for having a couple of drinks.

I've cracked open the wine here too, only to find it's pretty horrible

whoops......as soon as i posted that i realised i sounded like i was completely pissed and getting all emotional and sentimental........it takes me a lot more than 2 glasses of wine to get pissed....(theres a lot of me!).....so i meant it!

Why are your kids obsessed with ttc??

I also have no life btw

OK.....everybody else obviously has a life! i am going to get quietly pissed now on my own watching some crap on tv to take my mind off things!

i think you are all wonderful by the way

who am i trying to kid? (bit like you hey snowy!) .....i can't keep away! on my second glass of wine now so feeling a bit more cheery (i think)......i keep trying to put things into perspective........'dont be such a daft old hag, you already have 2 gorgeous kids (who are also obsessed with ttc by the way but thats another story!), you have only been trying for 9 months(which is only 5 cycles for me) and there are a lot worse things that could be going on in your life than not being able to get pg! .......thats what i keep trying to remind myself anyway. i need to concentrate on the family i already have.

thank you so much snowy (you are obviously doing as well as me with giving MN a rest!)
thanks bodders ( i cant believe how time flies.....you must be due any day now!!!!!!!!............that would be good wouldn't it....2 months gestation!)
thanks beansprout, its so hard not to get excited when you are late isnt it? why dont you post on here? you should, just dont get obsessed like me!
thanks tt - glad you got the flowers! i need some now! but dh is working through the night tonight and wont be back till tomorrow lunchtime.......haven't told him about af yet....he still thinks i am pg!

thanks christmassy one...did you can say i can get pissed at xmas?........just pouring my third glass of wine!

I've decided to 'Step away from the MN site' a bit - but feel compelled to email Greedy.

Sweet Greedy I'm so sad to read your af news - I was so hopeful having seen you chart I was trying to work out how to design you a bunch of flowers using emoticons to celebrate.

(((((((huge hugs )))))))))

Truly thinking of you.

result! (on the flowers anyway) hope you enjoy them!

One good thing....I got my flowers and an apology for being insensitive!

Poor greedy - big hugs. it's pants when that hapens, like TT says, playing it cool but also getting all excited. I'm just the same, a dreamer and a planner all in one. At least you'll be able to get pissed at xmas

I'm sorry too, Greedy. I so know that feeling - trying to be cool about being late but secretly planning ahead. There will be a month when all the hoping ends in the biggest FP. Hang on in there

Greedy - just checking up on me old muckers and am really sorry to see your post. And such a long cycle too, no wonder you are in bits. Big shoulder to cry on from King of Bods. Don't leave, purleeeeease - you would be sorely missed by all xxxx

Oh Beansprout, 4 days is such a tease. I've never been late, but if I ever am I shall need sedating. Hope you feel better soon.

Hey greedy, I haven't posted on here before but we are ttc too (6 months now) and AF arrived 4 days late for me this time as well. I really thought this could be it, but no. Just wanted to say that I know how you feel, and it's just sh*te. I'm really sorry.

Wow, you are efficient Greedy. Was that job standing between you and a plate of mince pies? Do you want to do my work I just have to finish before I can go and eat (I am starving! as always). Mind you, I could always turn MN off and just get it done!

geekinasantahat!

Ooh, that might do it. Who's got a spare hour to trapse back through the huge old thread?!

Just ate my first mince pie. Yummy!

how much am i allowed to swear on here?

FCK! FCK! FCK! FCK! FCK! FCK! FCK! Fcking stupid bitch AF has arrived. i am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO pissed off. i had really convinced myself i was pg and i was trying to play it so cool. AF was just a few days late....how stupid am i to even think i might be? why would i be hey? i can't stop crying and i don't want to either.
i am not convinced that this site is healthy for me either and as much as i am desperate to know how you are all doing i think i am going to leave you all for a while. good luck everyone! i am off to find geek xxxxxxxx

sorry by the way festivefettle!

i dont know how you CAT people, but geek did change her name to a festive one when she 'popped in' briefly the other day. does that make a difference

Put out a 'Geek, where are you?' thread. She might be quietly lurking, and if it were me I'd be really touched. You could offer to be emailable if she doesn't want to declare her woes to the whole world. Poor Geek, she was lovely to me when I was all over the place. I hope she's OK. Hopefully she's just off on hol somewhere!
