Wrote a big long post & then our broadband went off! Hmm

100 - thinking of you & keeping everything crossed xx

Astro - Must be worrying but I don't think they can do anything, unless it's somehow in your contract Hmm Surely it would be discrimination?

Feeling more myself today, it would have bee very funny if it hadn't hurt so much. DH said he wondered what i was doing!! Knee is a fetching shade of purpley blue today!

Got to tidy/clean up house today. It's DHs birthday on Sat & we will have people over. Have made a cake so I can decorate that tomorrow. Making him a stargate cake as it's one of his favourite shows.

Told DH about my anxiety dreams & he knows that it is down to our 'chat'. Feel a bit upset that I am OV today (by my calculations) and yet again another little egg is going to waste :(

Oooooooooooh Whywait! Maybe you ovulated early this month? I hope it's a good sign!

Sorry to hear you are feeling upset Bebe :(

How are you 100years? I hope everything has gone ok today x

MrsSatsuma · 13/01/2011 17:25

Bugs here, bangs on the head there... what an unhealthy lot we are at the moment! For my part I have a feeling like a stone in my stomach... had it same time laast month and assumed it was mittelschmerz but OV sticks suggest no ovulation yet so maybe not... Not sure if I'm not ovulating or if the sticks are pants. Hmm.

100 - any news yet? FX for you xx

Bebe - hope bruise has gone down!

AC - sorry to hear work is so busy - hoping it's in a good no-time-to-get-bored kind of way!

Got my formal lesson observation tomorrow... am a bit scared!

MrsSatsuma · 13/01/2011 18:12

Sorry, have just realised first line of my last post sounded decidedly unsympathetic... not my intention at all! Sending well wishes to everyone and anti-worry wishes to 100years :)

AmandaCooper · 13/01/2011 20:38

100years I hope you're alright.

nannyl · 13/01/2011 20:49

100y hope you are ok. Been thinking of you.

whywait maybe it might be a sign? good luck Smile

midwife tomorrow so that might be slightly exciting

bebejones · 13/01/2011 20:57

100 - Hope you are ok? x

Nannyl - That is exciting! Hope it goes ok? Usually just a lot of form filling, but still nice to get stuff organised, makes it seem more 'real'! :)

Hi Ladies,

Sorry for the delay, had to go back to work after the appointment. Then got home, fell asleep, had tea, puked a lot. Anyway....

Single intra-uterine pregnancy of about 6 weeks detected. Fetal heartbeat present :) All as it should be for this stage. :) Very pleased. Little lentil has a heart beat.

I'm very sick, have only kept a ham sandwich is me today. I'm off to bed in a minute once I've updated a few more people.

Thanks for all your good wishes.

nannyl · 13/01/2011 21:20

really pleased to read that 100y Smile

100years · 13/01/2011 21:21

Thanks Nanny. :)

MrsSatsuma · 13/01/2011 21:48

Hooray!!! :)

JustShaggingForNow · 13/01/2011 21:52

wonderful news 100. I am so pleased that you got the reassurance that you needed from the EPU. :)

Has anybody else been watching GetOrfMoiLand's POAS threads these last couple of days? I have been avidly following (particularly tody as I am off sick) and it has made me all hormonal. I really really really hope that I have had a happy accident this month. Which will probably mean I spend the next week trying not to test and then AF appears :( I want a Baybeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

AstroZola · 13/01/2011 22:03

Hey ladies

100 - that's GREAT news! yay! I'm happy for you. Smile

Bebe - sounds like you guys could have a really lovely weekend. I'm sure your OH will love the cake you're making him...he can't accuse you of being off with him when that beauty arrives!!!

With regards work...i know they'll just have to suck it up...but you know that queasy feeling you get when you think you just may cause some unintentional friction...

Strawberry - they could ask me to pay something back if i left early or didn't go back after maternity leave...but it won't be much at all because i'll have done almost a year post-qualification anyway and it's actually not even in my contract...so all's fair really. When i had my interview there they were of the opinion that i'll train, work a year there, then i can go off and do what i wanted with my qualification as they're a training practice and there's no guarantee they'd keep me anyway in order to keep students coming through the doors...however, many things have happened there over the last few months with staff and they're now relying upon me to practically run the place-unofficially...so i don't think they'd want me to leave...but hey ho...the one vet there is trying for a baby with his wife anyway...so surely he'd have some understanding of what's to be involved....although they've recently miscarried so i don't know when they'll try again which is a real shame as they're older now and i think they'd make great parents!

Sorry for the looooong rambling! Thank guys! xxx

MrsSatsuma · 13/01/2011 22:13

JS - right with you. I want one now!!! DH has just rolled his eyes at me (in a nice way) when I bemoaned the fact that I won't be able to OV test on Sat as will be at my mum's (she might get a bit suspicious if I pee in a cup and leave it for 20mins in her bathroom... nice...). Have got faint but definite line today so hoping for a strong one tomorrow so I won't need to worry!!

Off to bed - lesson plan all done, hoping I won't mess it up tomorrow!

squirrel007 · 13/01/2011 22:31

Great news 100years, I'm so pleased for you :)

Quodlibet · 13/01/2011 22:31

100 - really glad you've had good news today.

I am totes shattered too - a whole day with Yr 4 and 5 today, and another tomorrow. I don't have the stamina for it, I tell you!

100years · 14/01/2011 06:31

Thanks ladies for all your good wishes. I've still not checked fully back through the thread, I know I am really bad. I will try this evening if I'm feeling OK. Puke central!

jbells · 14/01/2011 08:47

ahhh thats great new 100 glad everythin is ok

AmandaCooper · 14/01/2011 09:03

JS I just read the whole of her second thread! I'm surprised the media didn't camp outside her house, that was epic! It's in chat, if anyone wants to read it.

Can't decide whether to ttc in March or wait until after the big music event DH and I have tickets to on 25th. AF is always regular as clockwork and should arrive in time for me to go if I'm not pg. I only want to go if I can get very drunk and enjoy myself. DH says he's happy to go with a friend if I can't go.

I can't help thinking this could be our last big blow out for a very long time and I'd be sorry to miss it... but I can hear the clock ticking pretty loud.

JustShaggingForNow · 14/01/2011 09:27

Damn it. Posted and then MN crashed!!

In know what you mena about only being able to enjoy a music festival if drunk.... sounds bad doesn't it but I am exactly the same. God knows how I will manage 9 months of socialising with no booze and a huge list of restricted foods (I may have to take the French approach and have the odd glass every now and then and use common sense when it comes to foods!!!)

so with you WhyWait. This 2WW is driving me slightly mad!!

I have now got period type cramps even though AF isn't due for another week and I've never had a cycle this short. Am I clutching at straws?!?!?

FX for the both of us. Can't rembember but I am assuming that you are actually TTC and not just crap at contraception like me!!

Still feeling very sick but trying to keep busy to take my mind off it :) Am also looking bloated but that could just be a combination of weight gain and wishful thinking!!!

If you got a BFP, when would you be due (assumes that everybody is like her and instantly uses the due date calculator as soon as there is even a possibility..... Blush)
