Cassius! Lovely! Great names on that there thread? in fact, all the names over there have been lovely, and not the norm either. What a cool bunch of gals Any thoughts on names yourself yet City??
DH is almost there, back running, so possibly have a late fitness test for Saturday?s game. We shall see. Fingers crossed. Lots going on this month, mainly consisting of eating out for people?s birthdays ? oh and then I turn 29 very soon and hope to hear about the job soon too? What about you?
Fingers crossed about the biopsies, when will you hear? I should think something of that nature is done fairly quickly?

How are you doing 3cats? Have you had any more migraines? I know you had your first one of the month the other day. Have you been keeping a food diary to see if there is a trigger?

Hi Ready, glad you got to relax You sound positive and fingers crossed this is the month.
Sorry to hear dh is injured I hope he's ok. Got any fun plans for this month?

Hi 3catstoo how's things?

As for me well a bit sore with 4 mole holes, but hopefully that will go. They are biopsying them fingers crossed on that. I should be braver about my grandma as she has dementia and is a good age, but its hard to watch the deterioration. On top of everything else a friend announced she was infectious with mumps last time we saw her. Me and dh have had it but an added worry nonetheless.

Seaside's baby is called Cassius I'll send them your best They're a busy bunch on there its hard to keep up!

See you all soon

Ready · 29/01/2008 16:15

Sorry for not being online for a bit girls, been busy. Had friends visiting for the weekend. Great fun, and am now still catching up with sleep I had a fair few glasses of vino, and was totally relaxed, which is just what I needed after the disappointment of starting another cycle. Onwards and upwards!

3cats, really sounds like you are going through the mill at the moment. Sending big hugs. I can?t really offer any advice, but I hope that you are ok? And always feel free to rant here, if it helps.

City, I am sorry to hear that your grandma is weak and in hospital I hope she is better soon. I am also sorry that you have had to undergo surgery during your pregnancy. Of course it is natural to worry about it, but they would not perform it if they were in doubt ? the claim culture has made sure of that. So, do try to relax. Are they doing biopsies on the moles? Hope you are feeling ok?

DH was only watching at the weekend, slight muscle strain, which is annoying as he had found the back of the net in recent weeks, fingers crossed for a swift recovery.

Great news about XavierMcJnr? is there a name yet for SeasideJnr? Hope that mum?s are both well? send them my best.

thanks 3catstoo it went ok

I am just worried it could affect the baby, but they have re-assured us it won't.

The damn local anaesthetic is waring off so its quite sore now hey ho

How are you?

3catstoo · 28/01/2008 13:11

Hi City, Good luck with the op.

Why are you having a low day?

Lots of hugs for you.

cityangel · 28/01/2008 00:42

Hi 3catsoo I hope it works out Things sound confusing and tough at the moment.. not sure I am going to be much help with that but fingers crossed you are happier soon.

Good luck Mibbles

Hi Ready, Big hugs. Was dh watching the footie this weekend or out there! Lots of big games and results to keep my dh very happy.

I am imaging you all send me hugs as today is a low day..

I went to see my grandma in hospital today who is very weak and I am off to bed all nervous as I am having 4 moles removed under local anesthetic tomorrow and although it doesn't sound like much I am really worried about it Still it's one way to get time off work

mibbes · 25/01/2008 22:30

thank you so much 3catstoo I'm trying vit B6 this cycle then off to the docs if no improvement. I appreciate you taking the time to respond

3catstoo · 25/01/2008 19:37

Hi City and Ready,

Fab news about Seaside and MrsMc. Any details?

Hope you both have a fab weekend.

I'm building upto AF. Had a migraine today, first for a month. More spots too. The antibiotics finally cleared the spots on my jawline but then more appeared on my chheks and chin.

Still not really had a chance to talk to DH. He is so tired all the time.
Probably won't talk tonight as he will be late and I have a migraine. He will probably complain about the state of the kitchen and that I have no idea what's for his supper.

Still 'texting' but not gone any further. Still excited by it and not sure what I want. Not really a good place to be at the moment. I know I don't want to ruin my marriage over a silly fling (mainly because I don't want to hurt DH and because of the children).

Still want no 4 bizarrly (sp?). I think this whole thing is possibly because of DH's attitude towards having another baby and towards me.
His female collegues at work get more attention than me.

Sorry that turned into another rant.
I don't feel down though. I feel quite good, just confused, excited, aprehensive, naughty, guilty, the list goes on.

Anyway, big hugs to you both.

3catstoo · 25/01/2008 19:28

Hi Mibbles,

You are not butting in at all.

I had a laparoscopy to determine the cause of the spotting and pain that I was getting.

I'm sure the spotting was down to the slightly thick lining of the womb. It isn't endometriosis as the consultant thought.
I had other symptoms which were put down to other things.

It is worth seeing your GP about it though as there could be a number of reasons. He/she should refer you to a gyny.

Let me know what you do.

Good luck. Do you get any other symptoms?

cityangel · 24/01/2008 23:26

MrsMC had a boy 'Xavier was born at 5.10pm weighing 7lbs 8oz'

Sadly I am not glowing... my skin is awful I cried at work in front of my boss (very ) but I am not complaining...

Don't worry about waffling, at least you didn't clam up. If they don't want you they're not worth it and something better will come along!

Ready · 24/01/2008 22:46

Oooh City, I knew that Seaside had her boy, Fettle told me, but oooh MrsMc what did she have? Send my love won't you.

I wasn't great in my interview today, I felt as if I was a bit waffley (what's new!) but time will tell

So are you glowing?

OP posts:
cityangel · 24/01/2008 22:33

Glad you're feeling a bit better Ready
Good luck with the interview

Hello Mibbles Hope we can help.
I don't have any personal experience but sounds like they should do some hormone tests at different times of the month?

I am ok, bumbling along... always look forward to catching up in here.

PS: Just to let you know Seaside and MrsMC had their babies

Ready · 24/01/2008 19:23

Mibbes, you are not butting in, I'm sure 3cats won't mind

How are you 3cats? and City

I am feeling a little better than yesterday. Had my interview... fingers crossed

OP posts:
mibbes · 24/01/2008 13:21

3catstoo I am so sorry to gatecrash like this but spotted your name on the title of the thread - am not a stalker, don't worry !
I have been searching the archives for info on pre-AF spotting and found a thread from 2 years ago where you were going to see the doctor about having several days of spotting before AF. I have been having this too (between 5 and 6 days of spotting from 10dpo) and just wondered what the outcome was for you ?
Sorry again for butting in

cityangel · 23/01/2008 20:24

Ready that's really tough... big hugs from me
That's really hard to be late and get AF

I can't think of anything particularly cheery upy, but hope you and dh have a chilled out time maybe some wine, cheese and a hug.. hang in there

I hope you've patched things up 3catstoo is your hair looking nice?

Not much new with me. dh and I were in the evening standard paper today random article + dodgy photo... one to laugh at!

cried at work yesterday (dead embarassing)

dh is cooking steak tonight and hoping Chelsea win so we can go to Wembley and thump Spurs...

3catstoo · 23/01/2008 18:30

Oh so sorry Ready .
Many many hugs from me to you.
AF is so mean delaying like that.

Ready · 23/01/2008 14:34

CD1 of cycle number 18 for me today. Gutted

OP posts:
Ready · 22/01/2008 16:08

Every girls needs ghds Enjoy them
Nope, not tested today because I got a massive dip in temp and presumed that the game was up. Tomorrow then.

OP posts:
3catstoo · 22/01/2008 16:02

Hi Ready. Very strange that you are non the wiser. Have you done another test?

Yes, I got GHDs. They arrived today and I now have very straight hair . DH will be so pleased (not).

Ready · 22/01/2008 15:44

oooooh hair straighteners... tell me you got ghds 3cats they are the best sorry you had a row with dh

waving at greedy, hope all is well looked at your profile - what adorable children you have Marcy looks as cute as a button, pmsl at the elvis pic

Well. Still no news from me. Temp dip but still no period. CD33, unheard of, no clue anymore. Tut.

OP posts:
3catstoo · 21/01/2008 22:13

Hi Greedy. I'm with you on the school front. Mine all went loopy. I think school gets the best of them and unfortunately we are left with the tired, hungry grotbags!

Glad Marcy is being a totally chilled third baby.

My third is due to start school this year. 8 months to go! I'm dreading it. She is probably my last so I will have to move onto pastures new.....

Had a huge row with DH tonight. He told me that I should be putting my £500 a yeat earnings towards the new bathroom!!!!!!
That's all I earn compared to his £60,000. Damn cheek. All because I spent some of it on me, hair straighteners actually.

We both need to calm down now.

Night night.

greedygreedyguzzler · 21/01/2008 20:46

oh i see!!!!!!!!!!! if i ever want to see what old 3 cats is up to i have to find her own personal thread do i????!!!!!

just thought i would check up on you..........and your chart spotters thread was SO far down the list!!!!!!!!

hope dh is obliging this month 3cats!!!

you asked what it is like with 3..............well......you should know!!! why didnt you warn me hey!!!!

actually its great, but ds (my eldest) has just started in reception and nobody ever told me he would change from an angelic little boy into a complete looney as soon as he got in from school!!!.......is that normal??? its REALLY doing my head in!!!!

my little marcy is a superstar....most chilled baby in the world..............kind of makes me want another (i can see why you do)......just to see what they would be like!!!

take care and i will probably nose in from time to time if thats ok?

Ready · 21/01/2008 19:00

Doesn't feel like this is meant to be my month somehow. Oh well.

cityangel · 21/01/2008 18:47

3catstoo · 21/01/2008 15:27
