I wont! Her sister left ds a voicemail saying she's going to stab him, and now threats from her brothers. He took the police with him yesterday so get his stuff. There is a whole world out there I never knew about..... Hmm!!!

Going to get a test after work tomorrow so I can do it Sat am. Lots of crampy tummy and knicker checking going on here! I don't have any gut feeling at all, I don't feel preg for sure.

Any recommendations for a test?

I'm out!! ERTD came this morning Sad. Was just starting to get my hopes up too. Oh well, onwards and upwards. Going out for dinner with girl friends and then to see Vagina Monologues tonight, so can have a glass of vino Smile.

At the grand old age of 40, how long should I be trying before seeing the doc??

Youngie - Are you feeling ok?

Loujalou · 08/10/2010 09:24

GrannyPants big big hugs to you my love. If you are over 35 they say 6 months but you can lie tell them what they need to hear. They can get you some bloods checked over and the basic tests.

Thank you Lou. I was a bit tearful for 5 mins this morning I have to admit, but dh was very good bless him.

Docs know exactly how long we've been trying because they took my mirena out. That was only our 4th cycle, so not long compared to many, but feels like forever!!!

Bicnod · 08/10/2010 13:08

Sorry I've been AWOL last few days. ERTD got me on Wednesday so I'm out this month too :( feeling pretty down about it. This will be our 12th cycle TTC - just don't understand how it happened so quickly with DS and just isn't happening this time around :(

I'm fed up with SWI-ing - ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGghhhhh another blardy month of it!

Am back on the pee sticks this month so at least can try to be targeted.

NOTHEROLDIE · 08/10/2010 21:40

Poop to all the RTD that came this month :(

I think I only got lucky cos I used the pee sticks and actually felt like I was Ovulating, and realise now I don't ovulate every month, in fact first since May. So keep trying girlies.
Took me 10 mths last time then 3 after ERPC. So it IS possible my lovelies.

I don't feel at all pg, no symptoms or nothing, not been like this before, keeping fingers crossed everythinhg is ok and its a sticker.

I will be on the sidelines with my pom-poms cheering you ladees on. You'll be getting more action than I will be for the next 8 months Grin

Fairygodmother1 · 09/10/2010 07:43

Morning all,

Sorry ERTD got yas! Got my fingers crossed youngie

I've not been around cos there was a major incident at work.

I think I'm on day 14 (?) & boobs r really sore - not had that symptom in a long while...

Anyone got anything good over the weekend? It's the last weekend of my 20s!!!!

Loujalou · 09/10/2010 20:10

FairyG we need to start a party in the park with diamond whites and Kay cider. Am wearing the most slutty outfit ever and hoping to get laid.

Had fab afternoon on London's south bank with some old friends and had some fab food. Adi loved the bus and train. It was lovely and all the boys young and old behaved themselves.

Hello, RTD arrived yesterday morning. Day 36. I did start to think that just maybe, despite insufficient swi. Ho hum and bollocks and stuff. I also now have a stinking cold. Which by the time it gets to swi time dh will have caught so I think I will be out next month as well as this month!

Budge up in the pit, I'm a coming down. Glad you had a good day out Lou and don't climb down here!!!

Loujalou · 11/10/2010 10:00

Oh fucksticks dear the pit is getting too full what with me, pants, biccie and fivealive. Spotting has started so need to get lots of supplies in.... I wish my ERTD would start without all this kurffle (not sure if that is how you spell it).

On a lighter note DS smeared clothes, bed and carpet with sudacrem. So morning started with a bath!

OP posts:
Fairygodmother1 · 11/10/2010 19:19

Girls, looks like the party is gonna be in the pit - on day 20 with (TMI) watery blood!!!! So shove over, I bring Ben & Jerry's!!!!

harassedinherpants · 11/10/2010 19:27

I am out of the pit!!

I've been to the chiropractor today and had my hips cracked, bliss. That is what you get for carrying 3 children on one hip - a wonky pelvis! BUT my chiro is also a Kinesiologist and I asked her if she had a magic "get me a baby" pill. Unfortunately she didn't, but she did test all my hormone levels, check I'm not peri-menopausal, checked my thyroid and for vitamin deficiencies. I am apparently massively deficient in vitamin B6, and she said she would put money on me having very bad ms with dd. I did!! So have a huge bottle vitamin b6 and found this for you to have a look at www.testcountry.org/vitamin-b6-deficiency.htm

Spent a blaaardy fortune, but never mind!

UmBongo · 11/10/2010 22:43

At least Sudocrem smells nice - there could have been worse things to smear Lou I do like the word kerfuffle though and will try to use it more often!!! (and try to use other words less!)

I had a jolly morning today talking to 4 other mums about improving the baby area at playgroup. I was alone (apart from my ertd) and the other 4 had their 2nd, 2nd, 3rd and 4th child with them respectively! My brain noticed this and I have spent the rest of the day trying not to think about it.

Pants, when you win your next baby get a hippychick hip carrier - great for my rather rotund wee man!

UmBongo · 11/10/2010 22:53

I think I will not go out when in the pit and just hang around with me mates and drink snakebite, just to avoid getting depressed with other peoples bumps and babies.

Cheers all

Loujalou · 12/10/2010 11:20

Fivealive I am with you on that. My body is playing tricks with me. If RTD is going to come I wish it would just come and be over with....

OP posts:
Fairygodmother1 · 12/10/2010 18:15

I'm not in the pit now as the spotting has stopped...what the hell is going on with my body. If I was an animal I'm sure they'd put me down!!!!!!

Umb totally get how you feel. I've got an ever increasing bump at work that I have to see - think everyone else needs contraceptives put in their tea!

Not that I'm bitter - just fed up of being out of the baby/child talk. I WANT A BABY!!!!

How is evryone in the pit?

Lou are you gonna test anyway?

Bicnod · 13/10/2010 08:46

FairyG that sounds promising no? Keeping fingers and toes crossed for you.

Umbongo LOL at 'my brain noticed this' Grin

Lou any news?

I'm out of the pit. CD8 so nearly time to start this month's shagfest. Went to GP this morning and told her about my spotting before ERTD - she did smear, chlamydia test (?! will be having words with DH if that one comes back positive!) and had a general poke around. She also gave me a little pot for DH to spunk in to get his swimmers tested so that's good news.

She also told me to try to relax. HA HA HA.

Loujalou · 13/10/2010 09:42

Still no proper spotting and its day 29 am to scared to test.

Biccie don't you know if you relax you will make a baby no swi required?

OP posts:
Bicnod · 13/10/2010 11:18

Lou - TEST - everything crossed x x

Loujalou · 13/10/2010 11:20

I know I should but after GrannyPants last week I am not convinced and it was only due today....

OP posts:
Bicnod · 13/10/2010 13:15

Oh I really hope this is your lucky month Louja - keeping everything crossed. Will you test in the morning? x

Loujalou · 13/10/2010 13:17

Still nothing. Think I might test tonight as don't think i can cope with another sleepless night!
