Here we go! Thread 14 for the nicest bunch of women on Mumsnet

Thread 13 was very joyful and very painful for me, but what it has shown me is that even old warhorses like me can get lucky, so there's no excuse for all you nubile young honies not to deliver the goods! Come on now, Mama Hester expects you to do your duty by your fellow ttc-ers

Get ready now, 1 - 2 - 3, GO!!!

I am slowly getting in the mood for xmas, music is playing in the background although i feel for those who miscarry.i was lucky when that happend to us as dp was strong enough to make me forget and big souk was crying too.

Cosybear · 03/12/2004 10:08

Hello all ,

Well looks like i'll be joining you all again soon - am starting to miscarry - i would have been 8 weeks tomorrow - have had a brown discharge for 2 weeks and now blood - had a scan yeaterday they found 2 sacs and only once developed - it had a heartbeat at a scan last week but now no heartbeat - and it hasn't grown .
I've to have a scan next Thurs to confirm it but have started bleeding this morning . So suppose at least i won't have to make the horrible choice how to go thorugh with it - i wanted it to happen naturally anyway.
I will be back on here soon - nice to see familiar names - but sorry you are still here!
take care

Oh well, I just rushed up to Sainsbury's despite it being -5 degrees outside. Bought ClearBlue and Sainsbury's own and both say BFN.

Had an awful time at the checkout because the woman in front of me didn't have enough money and was there for about 10 minutes while I was standing there VERY RED with two big obvious SLAPPER TESTS on the conveyor belt. There was a schoolboy right behind me and another five people behind him. It was VERY EMBARASSING.

Am REALLY going to do some work now.

SO hoping you sneak in a BFP before we finish this thread .

Anyone know how many graduates we have? I know I could count, but I've not had nearly enough chocolate yet for that kind of brainwork.

Hulababy · 03/12/2004 09:27

But don't forget I did give in yesterday, and look where that got me. At what works out at £5 a test, I'm not sure I can afford to test every day!!!

Hula, if I were you I'd be testing every single day... I'm awed at your steely self-control.

morningpaper - I expect you back here in a week, talking to me in a low calm voice as you peel me off the ceiling...

jingleballs, Portsmouth isn't south, it's tropical!
Yes, the start of your fertile period is when you start getting fertile cm.

Geordie, are you there? Do you accept the verdict of the popular vote?

OP posts:
morningpaper · 03/12/2004 09:10

Hula you have too much self-control!

I don't know, maybe tomorrow morning? Now this control line thing is getting my hopes up again... Maybe I'll go and do another test later today. But it's bloody COLD outside so probably not.

sigh Better go and do some work. Good luck Hula! Good luck everyone! I know that lots of you are suffering far more than me and I'm just whittering on and on! Sorry! XXX

Hulababy · 03/12/2004 09:03

Don't know. I am going to try and hold out but not sure until when. I think I am 15DPO, so maybe I will wait until Monday - when I am a full week late. If I can wait that long and haven't gone mad. But ion Saturday BIL is ocming to stay, and on Sunday we are out at family lunch, so I do have distractions.

What about you?
