Pants just tell him if his sperm don't work this month you are going to get him tested that will spring him into action!

Hello - very quiet in here, hope you're all ok??

I'm not feeling great. Have lost my voice, sore throat,shivery, exhausted etc. Dh has been a star and I got out of bed and onto the sofa today. He's done everything bless him. Not a good time in cycle to get ill though Angry!!

Bicnod · 15/11/2010 15:01

Hi ladies :)

Youngie how are you doing? Thinking of you lots x x

Pantslady poor you :( sending big get well soon hugs. Hope you manage a bit of SWI (for medicinal purposes)

I've got absolutely no appetite. I've gone off all food - there is ice-cream and chocolate biscuits untouched in this house Shock - is this normal?!

Feels like a very long time until the 12 week scan. Trying not to get my hopes up as don't really have any symptoms yet.

Who's winning shagwatch this month then? Poor DH hasn't seen any action at all since I got my BFP - think I might have to get back on it (so to speak) or I'll have a mutiny on my hands...

harassedinherpants · 15/11/2010 18:17

Hi Biccie, are you feeling sick too? I lost weight when prg with dd because I was soooo sick. Went right off everything except white food and curry. Even when the sickness stopped my cravings were for fruit and salad. Unheard of for me!

Loujalou · 16/11/2010 10:46

The bean is all ok. Its growing as per expected and am now 9 weeks. I think the odds are now more in my favour. I am still not getting really excited but am glad I got this far.

My main symptoms are tiredness, sore boobs, bit funny with food and (TMI) irregular toilet trips. Still not sure it feels real but they found a baby so it was a huge relief. Can now start planning a bit more and book in my proper scan. I have still not cancelled my infertility appointment at the end of December as am going to wait for my 12 week scan first which will come first hopefully.

Sorry its all me me me!

Biccie TH refuses sex so it makes my life easy. Plus I didn't get any symptoms for a while so don't stress.

The rest of you how are things??

Well done Lou! I am really pleased for you. Big news in our house is that we have the internet back!!!!! (am also just finishing rtd so last month was a no too.)

Hi Lia

UmBongo · 18/11/2010 23:09

Hellooooooooo

Tumbleweed @@@@@@@

Hope everyone is ok, thats why you're all not here!

I had a sticky patch today, ds and I were out and his friends were all elsewhere, "my friends make me happy" he was sad to be by himself. He can play by himself brilliantly, but he needs someone else to chase when we are out!!!! If I had conceived after the 3 months it took with him, he would have a 2yr old sibling to play with by now. Sad

Bugger, bollocks. Must stop this thinking business. Tis bad for my health.

Loujalou · 19/11/2010 08:26

Fivealive my lovey thinking is overrated you know that. Think of all the extra attention you have been able to give your DS that you wouldn't have done if you had another rug rat!

OP posts:
Loujalou · 19/11/2010 08:36

I don't mean to be insensitive but that is how I used to get through it all. Still do as am to scared to get excited until my scan in 3 1/2 weeks.

randomimposter · 19/11/2010 09:19

sorry about the total thread hijack... but just spotted this... Louja what FAB news, am so pleased for you. Have all FX. x

Loujalou · 19/11/2010 10:45

Hey Jollster I still can't quite believe it myself. I hope all is well with you have stalked checked up on you a few times and seen not all is well. Fingers crossed you get the result you want. Sending you hugs even though apparently they are non-mumsnetty although on this board who cares xxx

UmBongo · 19/11/2010 21:42

Thank you Lou, ds has had a lot of attention today as he was chucking up from about 2am to 9.30 this morning so most of the rest of the day involved cuddles and cbeebies! I would have been truly swamped if there was a baby involved in the mix too!

Hi Jollster! Good luck to you too.

Fairygodmother1 · 19/11/2010 21:51

Hi ya girlies!!

Missed you - the bleeding was getting me down that I could't compete in the 'falling on cock'games! But not bled for 11 days so I'm back in the game with 3 SWI!!!!

PMPL! at Iced's sister's comment!!!! DH loved it to!

How is everyone?

UmBongo · 21/11/2010 20:51

Deh 13 in the Bongo house. Dh is working again and won't be back til late. No swi or anything remotely like it yet this month. I think it is nearly time for a bit of cavewoman club man on head and drag to cave! (Obviously without knocking man completely unconscious!)Grin

Bicnod · 24/11/2010 19:26

Umbongo do it do it do it - grab him by the short and curlies Grin

FairyG yay - reckon you must be winning shagwatch this month...

Louja keeping fingers and toes crossed for your scan - what date is it on?

Oldie how you doing sweetheart?

pants yep - feeling sick as a dog now. thought i'd escaped morning sickness this time but it has hit big stylee in the last few days.

I've got my scan date through - 22nd December - so all being well we'll be able to tell everyone in time for Christmas :)

DS is poorly at the moment :( he's on antibiotics and has been waking up 5 times a night for the past week. i'm on my knees - nearly fell asleep (literally actually nearly fell asleep) at my desk at work today. not good.

UmBongo · 24/11/2010 23:40

Shagwatch Update - I'm off the blocks! Hooray 1 swi on day 14! All I have to do is get another one!

Biccy sorry you are puking, hope it goes off soon. Good luck!

notheroldie · 25/11/2010 09:05

Hi all, I'm back :)

Glad to hear those little beans are growing (and causing a nuisance, that sickness thing is a bummer!)

Glad to hear I'm not the only one still trying.
Its been a bit of and up and down time, the whole ERPC was fine, and I've kind of hidden the fact to many, but I'm still pissed off!
My first MC baby would've been due in a few weeks and as it nears Christmas it makes me think that we would've been celebrating with a baby.
Anyway DH is ready for action, so UMBONGO its me vs you. BICCIE cheated by getting pregnant !! :)

Loujalou · 25/11/2010 09:53

Youngie I hope your DH has lots of energy and pre-seed.

My scan is 13th December they are doing based on the size of the bean not when my last RTD was. Oh well..... At least its before Xmas.

Glad I haven't told my dad I am pregnant as he is sending mails about my cousin and his missus having a baby a month after me - they must have only just found out. Last time when I had Adi he couldn't keep his mouth shut then.... My mum is bad enough telling her brother by accident... Parents who would have 'em Wink

Seem to have avoided nausea just exhausted and my boobs keep growing by the minute and are sore - ouch.

Hi gals!

Sorry not been around, I've been trying and failing to put the whole ttc thing to the back of my head. I'm pretty convinced that I'm not going to get a bfp ever, I don't why, I just have a feeling .

Umbongo - go you!!

FairyG - sounds like you have competition Grin

Louja - not long 'til the scan! Exciting!

Oldie - Lovely to see you back Grin

Biccie - sickness will stop soon, and another before Christmas scan!! I love scan pics

Day 22 I think here, yes def 22. Same symptoms as normal except lots of stabbing tummy pains. Off out on piss with the girlies on Sat, so will do a cheapie test just in case.........Confused.

Thankyou for the Christmassy name Nother, sorry I can't think of one for you! I like that I now have dumb in the middle now! Suits me at the moment!

Hope to grab dh this evening, although its snowing here so he will probably be out playing!

Mulledumbongo · 25/11/2010 16:39

You are allowed to be still pissed off nother I was tidying looking for something in the kitchen the other day and came across my "coping after a miscarriage" leaflet the hospital gave me, and nearly broke down wowling "I'm NOT coping" and mine was way back in the mists of summer! I just hope I don't have to wait another 2 bloody years for another bfp!
