The resurrection of the 6th form common room for those inbetweeners who are TTC/PG after mc and are too long in the tooth to fit anywhere else

The resurrection of the 6th form common room, a place to put your feet up, wallow in self pity (me) or rejoice (and tremble in fright) at new growing beans and baybees after mc. No lists. No stats. No babydust. No feeling bad if you can't keep up.

Go.

how long in the tooth do you have to be to qualify for this thread Barren? Not sure I'm allowed entry (though I'm certainly trembling in fright)!

notsobarrenmorebrokenbrook · 05/01/2011 16:40

I've been sitting here trying to think of a witty retort, alas, I can't! Smile

All are welcome of course, long or short toothed, it's just somewhere a little less hectic to chill out.

Trembling in fright??

Quaking with fear then..? New BFP Grin and see-sawing from being over-the-moon to being utterly convinced it's going to go the same way as the last one. Or worse, stick but have 'bad genes' (I've been told I have a 50/50 chance of genetic abnormalities for which we'd be offered the option of termination Sad)

notsobarrenmorebrokenbrook · 05/01/2011 17:01

I just wondered why trembling with fear but now I know why. Congratulations! That's fabulous news Smile

Focusing (however hard it may seem) on the positive side of things, there's just a good a chance that your little bean has good genes! And just because the last one ended Sad, it doesn't mean to say this one will.

I wish I could offer some snippet of advice to help with the trembling, instead all I can offer is a hand to hold

Wombat33 · 05/01/2011 17:11

Thanks Barren. Positive thinking and hand-holding are very good remedies for trembling Smile

OrangeGloss · 05/01/2011 17:17

Hi I'd like to join if possible? I'm pg and just had pain and bleeding so a bit freaked out. Dr not worried as it's easing off but that's easier for him than me!

BB Sorry if I missed this, but are you pg or ttc?

notsobarrenmorebrokenbrook · 05/01/2011 17:54

Hi orange I just saw your news on other thread, congrats on BFP! Fingers tightly crossed it's just a blip, it all sounds good if bleeding is easing off, def a good sign.

Am in limbo at the mo, had 4 mc so referred for tests at St Mary's in London, awaiting results and an HSG so can't do anything until March.

OrangeGloss · 05/01/2011 22:56

Thanks BB I'm feeling quite philosophical but that's maybe due to my rollercoaster day Grin I know how lucky I've been to be pg again so quickly so I keep reminding myself that's a good thing at least

So sorry for your losses and that unbearable wait, I hope you haven't been waiting long already?

Meita · 05/01/2011 23:03

waves to BB, Jolls, Viv, ClareA... sorry don't know you other ladies!
Not intending to stay, just sneaking round mumsnet spying on old friends Grin

Yey! Alright my lovers! (said in my bestest West Country accent)

Hello mamameita how you doing?

Beautiful to see all the old faces here. jollipops I've brought a case of OB for me and thee as we're the only two old wasters that can still drink

orange I've been on this rollercoaster for the past two years now. It is my turn soon. I hope! I'm hoping we'll get some positive answers in March when we go back to St Marys

Meita · 06/01/2011 17:03

Aaah MrsG of course I remember you! So you're up the duff? Or did I get that wrong? If you are, well done you, and all the bestest!

BB doing fine thanks! Though baby does keep me on my toes and eats up my MN time Grin ... but, I'm not complaining!

PrettyVacant1 · 07/01/2011 09:26

Mornin' Grin

I am indeed diffed Meita, took me a friggin' year while, with numerous dramas along the way but here I am and I hope it wants to stick around. Hmm

Orange how you doing today?
Been thinking about you.

How are the nerves of steel Wombat
I'll hold your hand with Orange and we can brave the next few weeks together.

I'm feeling a litle meh at the moment, steroids stop me feeling too sick which is not so reassuring at times, boobs not changed much but throbbing a bit,and I can't stop eating Blush
and I'm knackered!
Just want to fast forward to end of Feb.
I'm trying not to think about it too much as at the moment my self presevation mode has to be stronger than day-dreaming about holding a snuggly bundle for the first time and DP telling me I've done it.
It's hard though Sad

I'm off for 3 whole days!
Doing nahhsink today, apart from maybe cuddling my cat and watching crap on tele.

Where is MoooBlue
Moooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo????
Where are yooooooooooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuu????

ViV keep meaning to discuss Noo Album.
Hmm bit torn tbh, ver frikkin Robbiefied innit.
How did that happen. Confused
Still goingGrin with, FX a hooouge bump.
Should be interesting.
The girls were saying we should get there really early.
Of course I got standing!

Wombat33 · 07/01/2011 09:38

Morning all! Hey PV - nerves of steel have up and left me today - am having a total doom feeling Sad Everyone around me who is pg keeps saying how knackered they are and I'm just not. Plus boobs aren't really any different and nausea is so little/infrequent that I can't help worrying. Need to snap out of it (or ideally, need the CB Digis to show my HCG levels rising), but struggling today. Partly caused I think by finding out that one of my best friends who I see a lot is also pg with the same due date and realising how hard it is going to be if something goes wrong for one of us (and let's face it, with my odds, that's likely to be me). Argh - I need to get a grip!!! Maybe lack of perspective is a pg symptom..? Wink Hmm

AlbaDeTamble · 07/01/2011 10:00

MrsG, yay! fabulous news! I was lurking around in a really grumpy mood and found this thread and now I'm really happy!!

Wombat, step away from the CB Digis, they're devil sticks, levels depend not just on how far gone you are but on how concentrated your wee is at the point you poas... so if you've drunk lots of water it can send you into a blind panic... if you're pg, you're pg, just stick with that, the only reliable indicator of HCG levels is a blood test...

On that note, I hope you have some good distractions lined up for this weekend Orange, all the very best with the scan on Monday - I've read your other thread, it does look seem like the signs are good, and bleeding is awfully common in successful pregnancies, especially right at the start. I have my fingers tightly crossed for you.

Big wave to BB, and all the very best of luck with all the testing.

Jolls, I think I may get some OBSB this evening. Midwife says all ready to go, just need to relax... will toast you with my nice big (medical orders!) glass.....

youremindmeofthebabe · 07/01/2011 10:43

Hello! I won't stay, but I can't decide about the new album either pretty- you are right, it's very Robbie. Especially the further on it goes, on the whole. Still, I will wait til after the tour to decide. Did you get seated tickets?Grin

Waves to bb-good luck with the testing- and jolls and other familiar faces.

Wombat33 · 07/01/2011 10:54

Thanks alba I'm trying to stop worrying but it's so hard and my emotions are all over the place. Maybe I'll try and get my doc to give me a blood test when I see him on monday...

PrettyVacant1 · 07/01/2011 11:21

Howdy Whatbabe Grin
Nah, standing all the way
Ver clever of me, innit. Hmm

Alba Woo hoo! SmileSmileSmile

I'm made up at all the baybees popping along over the last few months,I've only just got the guts to peep on the grads fred every now and again,kinda lost track and was suprised at how soon you,nolongerupduffed, WYG, Muse and Bunny got to popping. Grin
bet it's felt like ages for you all though.
Good luck, I'm so excited for you.

Wombatfink keep those wings of steel, and why the hell would you want to pee on something that (a) costs more than 99p and (b)will make you go menkul.
Alba is right, you be diffed, bit early for nausea and I'm only fooked cos 'roids cause broken sleep and I also have M.E.

And yup,true,true.
Check!
Lack of reasoning sense marbles perspective is indeedy a symptom.

I am flying the flag for crayzees.
