Joycey29 · 07/07/2009 16:07

PME - thoughts are with you - can't imagine how you are feeling but we are all here for you.

Nunnie - Glad to see that sympyon spotting is not dead.
Iaatcey - how are you doing?? Got my 20 week scan on weds!

iateallthecreameggsyummy · 07/07/2009 14:13

ooh ulcer not heard of that one before although id not heard of increased earwax as a symptom will i joined mumsnet!!

So if your camping this weekend i assume your waiting till Monday to test?

Keep us posted! I'd love you to get BFP!

Must dash work at 3 an bits to do before i go! Take care everyone! x

nunnie · 07/07/2009 13:34

iaatcey, my 2ww will either be over Fri,Sat or Sunday but I am camping this weekend so I will put money on the arrival of the witch she always comes when it is inconvenient (which is all the time).

I have been here before I like spotting symptoms, but I don't get my hopes up tbh, they can all be explained by something else but I like spotting so here goes!

Mouth ulcer that only last a day and half, never had that before, they always last 10+ days very bizzare, so that is now a symptom as there is no other explanation for it coming and going so quick.

nunnie · 07/07/2009 13:31

I am so sorry PME, I can't begin to imagine how you are feeling

iateallthecreameggsyummy · 07/07/2009 12:45

PME i am so sorry to hear your news about Jack! I wish i could say something to make you fele better but there is nothing in this world that will do, other than the Dr telling you he was wrong. You know we are all here for you if you need a rant or to talk or anything!! I'll happily give you my e-mail addy etc if you need to talk! xx

Nunnie symptom spotting seems to be going very well how long now till 2 ww is over? I must catch up on everyones posts will have a look at them now!

ReneRusso · 06/07/2009 23:52

sorry, i can't pray but wishing you peace and positive vibes x

proudestmummyever · 06/07/2009 23:49

Not really renerusso, he does a good quality of life tho, doesn't talk, or walk and won't walk for a while, was saying a few words before meds were increased nd then he stopped saying them, meds make him drowsy

But def progresing, weight bearing now and also think he said "mum" tonight when I said it, think he copied it

I can't pray any harder xxx

ReneRusso · 06/07/2009 22:25

Of course they could be wrong. And even if they are right, there's still a 50% chance he does live to 40 and beyond. That is quite a good chance. How is his quality of life? Can he lead a fairly normal life despite the seizures?

proudestmummyever · 06/07/2009 22:06

Thanku renerusso, bn sitting having a good cry just nw

I am praying they r wrong

ReneRusso · 06/07/2009 21:46

I'm so so sorry pme. I hope he proves to be on the good side of that 50% and lives to be 89. But I cannot imagine how you are feeling.

proudestmummyever · 06/07/2009 21:15

Hi, Well I have given up for the forseeable..

We got bad news about our wee man, got his EEG results bk and they were really bad and we were told.... when I kept asking the consultant, that Jack only has 50% chance of getting to 40 yrs and 50% of not reaching that age

Can happen anytime from nw til then, so needless to say ths has put me right off having another

We are devastated...Jack's epilepsy won't do it, although there are always risks with any1 who has seizures, but Jack has a brain malfunction due to genetic disorder, which has no name and Jack is only 1 of 5 to have ths in the country and illnesses, such as bad colds, chest infections etc could kill him

Can't believe I am even writing those words

Consultant did say that Jack is on the very good end of the spectrum as he is mobile-ish and is not tube fed etc

I am in a world of my own right nw, a terrible place to be, believe me, I cannot pray any harder and am soo hoping Jack proves them all wrong

ReneRusso · 06/07/2009 20:00

I drink alcohol on days 1-7. coffee/tea in moderation , say 2 or 3 cups a day. Coffee has some benefits - protects you from alzheimer's

nunnie · 06/07/2009 19:49

No I drink it by the barrel load, I have been trying for so long now, I needed some pleasures back, alcohol and coffee were the two I opted for.

Light headed (new symptom) sitting down!

ReneRusso · 06/07/2009 19:42

Good look nunnie, you don't have that long to wait now
On the subject of coffee, do you avoid it anyway when you're TTC? I don't, but I have tried to cut down a bit, I think it is supposed to reduce your chance of conceiving.

nunnie · 06/07/2009 14:32

I FORGOT A SYMPTOM!!

Sicky feeling that gradually eases.
Irritable
gone off coffee (don't fancy any)
diarrhoea (gone now, only lasted one morning).
heightened sense of smell
Crampy

nunnie · 06/07/2009 14:31

Oh I really hope and pray it is this time, but part of me knows its just another mind playing tricks month

Angelfifi · 06/07/2009 14:20

Oooh! How exciting nunnie fingers crossed for you.

nunnie · 06/07/2009 13:59

What is this thread doing all there way down there, I almost forgot my symptoms looking for it

Symptoms over last few days:

Sicky feeling that gradually eases.
Irritable
gone off coffee (don't fancy any)
diarrhoea
heightened sense of smell.

Think that me lot.

cd - 22 of usual 25-29!

I know its too early as I think this should be a 27 dayer.

I am not that lucky I know

Angelfifi · 05/07/2009 14:57

Hi all,
How are we? we are not so good this end we have been struck with s&d and so are not doing much with the ttc bit! Which is a real bummer because i'm on my 'fertile' period so don't think much will happen for us this month unless i ov a bit later this month because of the bug - here's hopping!!!
Hows everyone else? anyone waiting to test yet?!?!?!?!

Clwc · 04/07/2009 00:51

Hello all. I'm back from wherever I've been
I hope you're all well.
