I think being at work really is the best thing for me at the moment. Takes my mind off thing. Thankfully all seams to have died down now, but I'm not sure how much of this up and down feeling I can take! 13 days til the scan!

Glad the mw has set the record straight for you regarding scan Linda.

Treacle and MrsG hope you're both doing ok. Big hugs x

Treaclepie19 · 29/05/2014 17:44

Hugs back to you English, i hope you get some reassurance soon xxx

fancyacupoftea · 29/05/2014 17:47

It's lovely to see the both of you pop in Treacle and MrsG and don't be scared to do so although I would understand if you wanted to avoid. Hugs to everyone x

Treaclepie19 · 29/05/2014 17:50

How can I keep away fancy, i need your random outbursts :p think I'm going to the doctor monday to have a chat about my luteal phase. Probably didn't affect anything but feels like I'm doing something then.

Also, I need to hang around or by the time I'm back here again you will have forgotten me!!! :p

MrsGingerbread · 29/05/2014 17:51

Yes, blanket is lovely and that book looks very familiar. I'll Have a look!

That doesn't sound like enoughh yarn. Did I see that you are using two stands at once? Is that in the pattern or are you improvising? What size are your needles?

English Think I am getting there thank you. Looking forward to being able to ttc again. How are you doing?

fancyacupoftea · 29/05/2014 17:55

Yeah the pattern says to use 2 strands (but never explains why). I'm about 12 rows in and at least 25% through the first two balls (takes a while to wind them into their own ball at the start!) Quite a faff really but it does look good. Picture when I get to 20!
When can you start TTC again?

Haha funny you should say about random outburtst Treacle, I was just debating whether to tell you all I have a massive painful spot on my bum and I don't know if it's a SYMPTOM or just bad luck! DH tried to squeeze it but no luck.
So now you all know.

MrsGingerbread · 29/05/2014 17:57

Treacle it will be interesting to hear if lp is mentioned. My lady at epu didn't think it was a factor.

Might be worth asking for a blood test while you are there? I've been prescribed iron supplements.

Fancy it's lovely to see how you are getting on. Treacle and I are making sure nobody sits in our seats on this bus. :)

MrsGingerbread · 29/05/2014 18:01

Photo will be great, I might give it a go one day!

Doctor has said we can start ttc when we feel ready. But to wait for the bleeding to stop.

I'm temping again and temps have only just come down so it will be good to see when things are starting to get back to normal.

lindamagoo · 29/05/2014 18:03

Hi MrsG and Treacle Smile hope you are both well.

OH has just been told he's on permanent nightshift from now on, dear god I'm dreading the nights when the kids won't sleep Hmm But it's extra money which will come in handy now

MademoiselleG · 29/05/2014 19:02

MrsG and Treacle ! How could we forget you? So nice to hear from you both.

fancy have you sorted the spot issue?!

I'm back in the UK! Believe me, travelling with a lovely toddler on Ryanair on a fully booked flight whilst pg and full of ms is NOT fun. I nearly cried when I realised the escalators in France were down...thankfully, some helpful dude just grabbed suitcase AND dd -without a word- and just deposited both at the bottom of the stairs. I honestly thought I was going to snog the guy!!

RetroHippy · 29/05/2014 19:02

I am in so much trouble. We just emptied the loft... It was so full of shite, literally all mine. I'm so embarrassed Blush

fancyacupoftea · 29/05/2014 19:20

Loft-shite aside, how is the rest of the packing going?

Bumspot (we've named it 'Spottom') is still there, I have to sit one one side.

Ryanair is awful at the best of times Mademoiselle but with a toddler AND ms? Have a sit down and a biscuit.

Treaclepie19 · 29/05/2014 19:20

Haha fancy, what would we do without you???

Definitely making sure nobody sits in our seat! How short is your lp Mrsgingerbread?

Aww bless that man mademoiselle :)

MrsGingerbread · 29/05/2014 19:32

Af normally appears on day 10 po. So does that make it 9 days.

Doctor implied that once you have a positive and af doesn't appear then lp shouldn't affect anything after that. It would be interesting to hear how you get on though.

barmybunting · 29/05/2014 19:32

MrsG and Treacle, lovely to see you both! Sending you both a hug.

Treaclepie19 · 29/05/2014 19:36

That's what I've always heard too but I thought it worth a try :p
Mine is about 8/9 but it varies.

Treaclepie19 · 29/05/2014 19:36

Thanks barmy :)

fancyacupoftea · 29/05/2014 19:45

Craving olives. DH has offered to go out and get me some. Is that just selfish of me?

RetroHippy · 29/05/2014 19:51

Spottom! I love it Grin I have so many I'd have to number them; Spottom 1, Spottom 2, etc.

I'm feeling overwhelmed and tearful. It just feels like there's too much to do. DH is treating me like I've lost a limb which was sweet at first but is now pissing me off. I'm glad my mum is coming up but she does have a tendency to treat me like a child Hmm

Fuck. Thought I was so organised but I now realise I'm really not!

RetroHippy · 29/05/2014 19:52

I need Wine Sad

MademoiselleG · 29/05/2014 19:57

I've been waiting for a taco for 45 minutes. Dd is cranky and tired and hungry, I've just been sick on the pavement and there's still no sign of the effing taxi. I'm in tears on the side of the road in the middle of fucking nowhere.
Send help!

MademoiselleG · 29/05/2014 19:57

*taxi
Although taco? Yum!

RetroHippy · 29/05/2014 20:02

A taco would help with DDs hunger...

Hope you've been picked up now, sounds rubbish Sad

RetroHippy · 29/05/2014 20:04

To make you all feel better; All. My. Shit.

DH is staging an intervention

Hahaha was that all in the loft?

Oh no Mademoiselle sick in the road! NOT GOOD! Has it arrived now? Treat yourself to a taco (where does one even buy a taco ready made?!) or bed. What airport did you fly to?
