The No1 Babies Detective Agency

New ttc no1 thread.

BTW if anyone knows where those no1 babies are I'd like to know! If I was a real detective I think I would have been sacked by now!

BB and at your doctor's insensitivity! Really was pleased for you as I know you've been struggling with ttc too, it's the 'oh I'm 6 months pg without even trying and I'm not sure if I want to keep it' people that upset me. Another colleague's daughter is expecting (I should be grateful I work mostly with women who are nearer my Mum's age than mine as otherwise I'd be around the pg ladies instead of their mums!) and another colleague's wife just had a baby (though they are older, and had, I think, all but given up on having kids, so not so of them)

everyone else hi, how are you all?

Nomore I do not take anything personally. I was always happy for people with bfp, but I don't care who you are it still hurts when your still trying I really really understand . I should not have taken a picture but I was really scared it was not real and everyone was asking me about makes and strength of line etc and I was on my own with no one to ask. I have taken 2 tests since.

Anyway I apologise if I was a little insensitive.

Enough about all that, Your test results were positive 58 is a good sign. I promise I will keep everything crossed and say a little prayer at Church. (I am not a fanatic religious person, but the support help me alot recently it was one of those things I did to get a bit of me time when I had been ttc for 7 months)

Fi I had an internal to check my ovaries, its lovely being a woman. Talking of insensitive doctors. I go on holiday next week so I telephoned him just to chat - he told me if I have a bleed not to worry there is nothing I can do I just have to accept I have lost the baby and come back to the docs when I get back!!!!!!!!!!

hi girls how are we all?

fi how was the blood test? did you pass out or was it ok?

Have just got back from docs myself - progesterone level is 58, which is a marked improvement on the 8.3 I managed last time, so the good news is that Clomid has worked (in that I have ov'd, now I just need to get pg )

Can I just say that Asda's pregnancy vits have EXACTLY the same ingredients as pregnacare - love supermarkets, no-one cares if you stand for 20min scrutinising products. 2 for $4 (pounds that is - still haven't changed my keyboard options).

Or you can mix and match with some of it's other cheap vits.

DH and I taking so many it still costs a fortune though

I gave up on all the fancy vitamin tablets - I was on boots/sainsbury's own version of pregnacare, but now just take folic acid tablets. I intend to go back to pregnacare-style ones when I get BFP as the boots ones (can't remember about sainsbury's) have fish oils in for baby's brain as well as ginger to help with m/s.

And I love the cemetery idea.

rattling · 17/08/2007 10:54

Can I just pop in to rant that last night's episode of Heroes (can only watch the late night edition) was replaced in Scotland by Scotland playing cricket . Very badly from what I saw . Though that wasn't a big surprise .

Am hoping some friends have taped it, if not I may be back for a catch up.

toomuchtimeonline · 17/08/2007 09:48

oops - meant cemetery not cemetary...

toomuchtimeonline · 17/08/2007 09:48

Morning folks!! Loving you line on the Cemetary meet- up Nomore - cheered me up no end this morning..

... of to lurk in the hut and caravan to see what has been going on as I'm all intrigued now!

I just want everyone to be happy that's all. Could see it all kicking off big time! BB hope you don't mind what I said about your BFP, I am really pleased for you, just was feeling shit myself (as explained in the caravan) but it was nothing personal please don't think it was your BFP I was upset about, it was two things that happened at work and one that happened on the way to work that had upset me.

Hi Ladies,

My goodness how much have I missed

Fi It took me 10 months to get a BFP. My hormones were all over the place. I can safely say it was one of the hardest times of my life but please keep the faith. I had really lost it this month and look what happened. I would symptom spot every month and convince myself I was pg and then every month I sat and got a BFN. Most months I sat and cried. Everyone around me was falling pregnant. This may sound ungrateful because I now have a BFP but I am scared to death that it wont stick. I've tested twice already because I was paranoid about the line. Please don't give up, I nearly did.

nomore ((((Hugs))) hope your feeling better. You guys have picked me up so many times when I have been down. And you are a fantastic diplomat saw your work in caravan

I love brothers and sisters by the way and my confession is I am a big brother addict and love the fact that they showed the housemates nominations. How evil am I!!!

Ready · 16/08/2007 20:08

Is it just me lurking about on MN this evening. What a dullard.

Wanted to say Nomore - well done on the diplomatic work betwixt hut and caravan. I hadn't realised quite how much friction there had been, I'm afraid I was fuelling the fire til I read the posts, and felt bad

Ready · 16/08/2007 19:32

I went to school with a boy called Julius. He was a bit mad.

I've had the odd evening when DH has been out, and I have eaten cereal for dinner whilst on MN!

nomoremagnolia · 16/08/2007 18:14

hmm, last week I think I ate in front of the PC - not a very good example of the family that eats together keeps together (in my defence DH was out and it was only me and MN)

Chuckle. I am sooo lazy. Must get up and go cook. Is it bad for the environment if I leave my computer on, so I can pop in and out throughout the evening? Ooooh. The guilt.
