Just feel really bad foryou all today. I know that sounds really patronising but I can't help feeling a bit of a fraud on here. I'm not TTC at the moment (DH not keen ao waiting to see how we feel in a few months) and I feel I don't have any problems so why am I posting here (not a troll BTW!) I want to take some of your problems and make them mine if that helps you out.

But, then thinking of it, I do have, and have had, problems...

I really really want another baby, but DH doesn't so going through turmoil with that. I had the problem with the Anti-D wotsit-dooda, and the fact that my MC was actually only 4 weeks ago and I'm trying too hard to get over it. Sometimes, when I'm feeling low and I don't know why, I have to remind myself that I lost a baby and a future only 4 weeks ago...

Oh, I'm sorry...just sometimes it comes out

I'll brush myself off and sort myself out and be back to normal in a jiffy...

Coathanger · 08/09/2005 11:02

Sorry, I've obviously stunned you all with my little outburst...

And with a puff of smoke...

TA-DA! its me again, the original coathanger!

(no more tears)

strike1 · 08/09/2005 11:15

No worries CH, you have every right to be here and to feel As you said your still getting over your m/c, so give yourself some slack woman!

DH is sitting in front of the cricket pretending to work today, and I must admit that I'm getting quite into it too It's taking my mind off things, and at least if af arrives tomorrow I can enjoy a beer while watching sport...Hurray!

Coathanger · 08/09/2005 11:22

Oh, yeah forget about cricket today. Not a cricket fan really but still a patriot and willing England on (lets hope our Footie team don't jinx the cricketers chances )

maddyd · 08/09/2005 11:24

Soory about you bfn Strike. What a bummer.

Coathanger · 08/09/2005 11:29

Well, I'm off for a while. Got to pick DS3 up and run a few errands. Will be back later, you can be sure of that!!

strike1 · 08/09/2005 11:36

Thanks Maddyd. I didn't realise Jools Oliver had problems either. So that books good then? I got the impression it told you how to be the perfect wife and mother, and I'm not sure I could live up to expectations

Lottielou · 08/09/2005 11:39

Moring Ladies, Sorry am a little late in posting today! Had a very hectic day and it's only 11.301 (SIGH)
Am feeling a little down actually today, i was ok this moring but am now feeling a little bit crappy! Not physicaly but my emotions are running around a little!
I think it may be because i went to a Virgin Vie party last night, had a fab time until a PG woman came in! she was absolutely glowing and everyone was fussing over her! Made me feel so so so sad, i woke up thinking about it!
On a positive tho i have stopped bleeding now so can concentrate on BD'ing again Wohoo!!!
Strike - Sorry for your BFN but there is still hope, stick a smile on that face hun! Stay positive! If your anything like me your cycle could be increasing this month. In answer to your question mine seems to kinda go between CD 35-45, lately they have been more into the 40's! I haven't a clue, which is a pain in the butt for knowing the right time that i am OV! I do all the checks, CM etc but can never really tell! Hence this month i'm going to try Ov tests! We shall see! Stay positive hun, your time is just round that corner!
CH - Morning to you huni bunch! How you feeling after letting your emotions out? Dont ever feel bad for doing that! We cant be all light, floaty and fluffy all the time! You are only human sweetheart and please dont feel a fraud for being on here! i'm thankful you came onto here,. for a start you stopped me from going insane when the thread was quiet! You make me smile, but you dont have to do that all the time! Just be yourself whenever, whatever, however you feel - we all still love ya big huge bear hugs to you! xxxx

Lottielou · 08/09/2005 11:42

Diddle - So nice to have you back hun! Glad you had a fab time, you deserved it!
Thanks for your message(s) last night, was nice to hear from you! And thank you for thinking about me! Please dont worry too much about me, i'm ok! I'm trying to stay positive and as you said treat it as a nasty heavy wierd AF! Onwards and upwards! I know it may seem like i am putting on a brave face but it's the only way i feel i can deal with it! If i didn't then i wud just go withdrawn, not be on here and give up! So this is me!!!

So your on CD 7 now?

I'm on CD 6!

strike1 · 08/09/2005 11:56

Thanks lottie! You keep smiling too! I'm glad to see your fighting to stay positive, and it is a fight at times isn't it?! But we will win. It's great that you and diddle have close cycle days, as your so close as friends you can support each other at testing time

Don't know where I be without you lot [sniff]

nicmum2boys · 08/09/2005 12:13

Morning ladies, although by the time I click post on this after running back and forth after DS2 who keeps insisting on dragging me away to do "ring a ring of roses" it will probably be afternoon!
Hi diddle, welcome back! Good to see you .

CH you're right it seems like everyone here today just needs a really big hug. We do all seem to be down at the moment, life just seems to be dealing out the crp for all of us right now. Hopefully that means we are all in line for a big* run of smiles really soon to even the balance. ((((hugs))) to all xxxxxx

CH I feel like our circumstances are v similar. When I mc last time was a complete surprise to find out I was pg, DH not happy about it, and then DH deffo not wanting to try again after mc. Don't feel a fraud for posting on here hun, I know I felt so desparate for another one and needed to hold onto something concrete, to give me hope, and really needing support which I didn't get at the time. If I had all these lovely supportive ladies to talk to back then I would've stuck here too. Not only that we love having you here. You are so supportive of all of us, and we expect to be able to return the favour when you are in need too. Extra big (((((hugs)))) to you xx.

Lottielou · 08/09/2005 12:20

Awww Strike! I feel exactly the same - i really dont know where i wud be without you guys!
It is good that my cycle coincides with diddle's for some reason it's always been like that, well apart from when i had a break from MN, they were seperated a little! It's kinda freaky!

Our times will come, put it this way... I have seen people joing this thread after me and leave before me, now thats just cruel! You have to see it that we WILL be graduating soon! It's in the law of averages, we just HAVE to!!! Out times WILL come!!! xx

Lottielou · 08/09/2005 12:24

Morning Nic, hope your not too tired fromplaying ring a ring of roses! Bless! You're definately right, we all seem to be rather down at the mo! We need to lighten the mood on here! not that there is anything wrong with talking bout our emotions, it's good to let them out! But we need to smile and realease some good vibes, i'm sure we'll all feel a hell of a lot better!

How are you today nic?

Lottielou · 08/09/2005 12:25

Regards a new thread... i think we should let Diddle start it off, she has started the last few and think it be only fair to let her continue! Agree?? I'm sure she'll be back later this afternoon!
xx

Diddle · 08/09/2005 13:10

Hi LL I'm Okish today. Still bfn on opk still got ewcm, but pain has subsided, so not sure what to think really. Have been drinking a glass of grapefruit juice every day as I read somewhere that it increases cm and makes it more sperm friendly, am wondering if this is confusing things for me as I certainly do have loads of the stuff (sorry tmi). Usually it's pretty sparse except when I (think) I'm oving, but this month it's been non stop since af left. Still we did manage to bd last night, but not convinced we haven't missed the boat this month......time will tell.
Glad your bleeding has stopped, and now hopefully the thought of what might have been is not so in your face iykwim (((((hugs)))) been really feeling for you these past few days. Hope you have more luck with ov testing next month than I have, just left me scratching my head in confusion, and not sure about wether I've missed it this month, or to keep testing. I might give it another go next month, but start testing earlier and see where it gets me.
Oh, and agree, diddle should start the new thread .

Diddle · 08/09/2005 13:32

nicmum2boys - thank you i have started a new thread, see the post below yours

Afternoon all!

LL- hi-ya! What a pair we are today, both feeling down Sorry you didn't enjoy your Virgin Vie party. Doesn't help when PG ladies gatecrash your "me" time! There were 2 PG ladies on my night out too. One is a very good friend and I didn't mind seeing her. But the other isn't such a good friend. When she rang to tell me about the arrangments for last night, she understandably starting tellin gme allabout her pregnancy, so I told her I had had a MC expecting her to stop talking about her baby. But no, she didn't. She said" oh dear thats sad. But let me tell you more about me...blah blah bloody blah!!!" So, I had nothing to say to her last night. Don't get me wrong, I don't wish bad on her, I hope everything goes well and her baby is fine, but I just don't want to hear all about it. She decided to ask everyone at the table last night what they thought the sex of her baby would be. Every one said a girl, so I thought I'd say a boy, to be facetious! Sorry rant over...

thanks fro all your support (again!) and kind words. I think it does me good to let it all out once in a while.
