Evening ladies :)

Welcome harassed and skito everyone is really lovely here :)and sorry about your losses...

well, i have had the most stressful day ever, me and my DP have pulled out of a house we were buying for when baby arrived. As little bean isnt arriving now its just been stressing us out so we're staying put :)

Sorry to hear you've had a BFN lily :( stay posistive though, it will happen!!

olis your hair looks amazing! very brave, ive never dyed my hair a different colour (apart from blonde every month!)

hello blackat hope you are well :)

sorry to hear AF arrived mumtum to cheer you up :)

hello melies collies chloe and cep :)

I am aching tonight :( my netball team played a very good team last night ( i think there oldest player was 15!) needless to say they were a lot fitter than me and i woke up not being able to move. ontop of that i have a black eye from falling through a fire door during the match... it was slightly embarassing!

Hope you all have a lovely evening ladies, my long post is oveeeer! xx

Im so fed up of my nausea i just dont understand im sick im crying at everything and BFN today WTF???

Thanks for the compliments! Just fancied a change.

Sorry about your pain and black eye brooke

Melies I am banned from pet shops spend to much

I didnt spend much...we don't have any pets (except some fish in the pond that were there when we bought the house and until today we have never fed - bought some food today so dd could feed them but they showed no interest - they probably had no idea what we were doing!)! We only went bcos she likes looking at the rabbits in there.

Brooke your story about the door sounds like something I would do! It's sad about your house, that must have been a hard decision x

Oh yeah, can someone please tell me WTF crosshairs are? I asked earlier but this thread moves so fast my post must have got lost...

melies crosshairs are the lines on ff that mark your ovulation day and cover line. See mine - the red lines. Vertical line is the ov day and the horizontal line is the coverline which helps you see your b4 and after ovulation temperatures.,

lili sorry about the bfn... and the cramps, headache end pmt

and you too oils sorry your body is giving you the run around. Love the hair! Lots of guts! You have a look of Pink (god I hope you don't hate her) I LOVE her!!! Think she's amazing!

Hi to yrmotb

no blackkat today? I hope you are doing ok sweetie and dad is going ok.

shorty are you still lurking? How are you doing? Still no AF?

Hello all,

Struggling to keep up at the mo between work (public sector = restructure), hospital visits and trying to keep sane about TTC, AAGGHH!

mouse posted on the 6th form thread, she's doing ok, but work is treating her badly, I popped over to see if there was news.

lili sorry to hear that it was BFN
olis sorry also to hear that you're still not feeling ok

Hope tomorrow brings better news for everyone

brooke your netball is very impressive , praps not the black eye tho

chloe hope you have a better day tomorrow
collie enjoy your day off!

to Cep, Mumtum, lily, Mel, Skitoo, Shorty, harassed, Laylas, Hadrian, Vegas and Really sorry because I know I will have missed someone.

Hey Collie xpost, thanks for thinking of me enjoy your day off xx

I can't get over how quickly this thread moves, I've only been gone 1 day and you ladies have filled 5 pages!

I'll catch up with everyone's posts tomorrow, but just wanted to thank everyone for your messages. It hasn't really sunk in yet...I'm taking it day by day, and will set myself targets. 1st is due date of AF which is Sunday.

2nd step is to stop working ridiculous hours. Didn't get off to the best start with 2 nights not arriving home/hotel before midnight.

Off to bed now, have a doctors appointment tomorrow to check a dodgy looking mole, but will mention bfp. I'm a bit scared of admitting I'm in my wtf cycle.

this temperature taking lark is stopping me having a lie-in on my days off. didn't go to the gym last night, way too late getting out of work so might drag my sorry arse there this morning

ninu nice to have you back, gosh you do work long hrs what do you do?

blackkat I work in public sector too. Pct at mo and LA previously. It's sh*t isn't. Hope it's not too bad for you.

olis loving the hair, what colour were you before? Is it a drastic change?

brooke Is it bad that I laughed at your falling through the fire door stroy - how the hell did you do that??!! Must have been a fast and furious game

collie hope you enjoy your day off, I know what you mean about the temps thing - I used to forget all the time when I first started and now it's the first thing I think off when I wake up.

Blackkat How is your dad doing now? Are his results back yet?

Ninu I hope the mole isn't anything serious

Hellooo to everyone else this morning.

Well, still a BFN here but like you olis I feel nauseous a lot. Woke up at 5am thinking I might be sick and the thought of having my breakfast (which I love) is very offputting I am 99.9% sure it's not pg though as have always shown up on tests immediately within a few days before my period has been due in the past BFPs think it's more likely that I am coming down with a bug to add to my cold and sore throat. I was in bed for 8pm last night, didn't really enjoy my Feel a bit better emotionally today though.

collie I don't normally work such long hours, these 2 days are out of the ordinary because I was travelling for a conference. Normally leave home at 8am, get back around 7:30-8pm, but will try and do a normal 9-5:30 where possible. I work in marketing. Enjoy the gym! I really need to go, I've put on 3kg since mc in Feb!!!

olis what tests are you using? Have you tried clearblue or first response? Hope you feeling better, actually, I hope it's ms! I knew I would get a bfp on wed when I woke up, I've has a slight feeling of nausea for a while, but got much stronger isince wed.

blackkat so sorry to hear about your dad.

lili boo at the bfn. Fx that next month is your month.

Good morning! I'm not feeling too bright this morning, dd up at 5 because she couldn't find her nighttime toy, she's going to be soooo grumpy later and so am I! Plus I've got even more spots, on my face now not just my back and chest, how attractive! On the plus side I've had no bleeding this morning!

Ff looks extremely complicated, my respect for you ladies that do it is huge! Thanks for showing me Collie. I don't think it would work for me doing nights and I'd probably get obsessed with it so I won't even go there!

Glad you feel a bit better today Chloe.:( that you didn't enjoy your wine.

Hope it goes ok at the drs ninu, those sound like long hours to me, hope you manage to cut them down.

blackkat those buns sound yummy! You deserve a treat at the moment with all of that going on x

melies I am joinging you on the spot outbreak too!

If any of you ladies can give any input here I would be much appreciated.

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/1169209-Spotting-Clomid

I wouldn't be appreciated obviously, you would.

Morning all!
Dont worry collie I adore Pink my hair was cut with a picture of her given to the hairdresser chole its not a drastic change my hair was dark before,When i got married 3 and a bit years ago i had long dark hair I actually got married the heaviest i have ever been (other than when pregnant)

www.facebook.com/samantha.stackhouse?cropsuccess

Its a bit of a change since then lol, My DH prefers me with pink hair more me.

blackkatsorry work is getting to you.
ninu hope the docs goes well, i have used a lot of different tests all very sensitive other than the faint faint lines i got early on (which could have been a bad run of evaps or something) i have had BFN'S

chole i dont understand my body at all i dont think i am pregnant but my body seems to think so i just hope it gets resolved one way or the other soon so i can move forward. I hope yours sorts its self out too ((hugs))

melies I am sorry you were up at five my DS sometimes has nightmares in his sleep and has me up too drains you.

To all i have missed hope you are all well :)

Morning all!

olismum - I wish I had the guts to do something like that to my hair.

collie enjoy your day off!

blackkat sorry work is stressing you out.

chloe wish I could help with your thread, but I can't. Hope you hear from hospital soon though.

melies uurrgh at early starts!

Ok, to poas or not to poas??? Help! Cd25 today but first proper cycle since mmc so no idea how long it's going to be. Going out tomorrow night for a few lots- of-- drinks, so do I test in the morning?? Freaking/worrying myself silly here .

God if ttc was stressful before, it's even worse now.

Well I what I would od is test, then if it's negative tell myself it was too early to test anyway and still go a little steadyish on the drinking But that's just me.

That sounds a lot like I would do actually Chloe!

What prg tests are good for early testing??

I had the cheapie ebay/amazon ones before, but used the last two up when I got bfp as didn't believe the first one lol.

I know the ladies on here swear by ClearBlue digital but they are very expensive. I got BFPs with ANswer and First Response in the past but have been using internet cheapies this time round.

Clearblue digitals aren't very sensitive harrassed but they are good in that there's no chance of evaporation lines. I've heard that adsa ones are cheap and sensitive, or superdrug, dont get the non digital clearblue, i had a ?false positive with one of those (unless it was a chemical pg, i never found out but I posted on here at the time and lots of people reported false positives with them)

Sorry can't help with your clomid problem chloe, that hospital sounds very frustrating! Could you try NHS direct? They might have detailed drug info?

olis after a mc it seems as if our bodies play very cruel tricks doesnt it?

Just been to the library with a few friends. Unbeknown to me one of them had invited her pg (due June) friend, I had to sit and listen to pram/labour/name chat feeling like crap. I seem to be able to see babies with no problems, it's pg ladies that really gets to me, maybe bcos I feel like I should be able to relate to them and now I just cant do it :(

Anyway, the ironing (and neighbours!) calls

meliesmum did you friend who invited the pg lady know about your MC? If so that was pretty insensitive. I have found though that most people just don't even consider these tactless acts, unless of course they have been through MC themselves In fact, it was just the other day I saw a FB status about if you are a mum and are proud to be a mum etc etc then copy and paste onto your status. In the past I wouldn't have battered an eyelid but now it makes me so and frustrated at the insensitivity that people who may never be able to have children have to be faced with that when they open their FB account Same goes to the 'ahhh it feels so good when bubba kicks' or 'wow! My bump is just getting bigger and bigger!' These are the type of updates I will never indulge in myself should I ever get another opportunity to do so, out of respect for people going through what we are going through or worse.

Newbie here - mc-ed yesterday at 8 wks .Am lucky enough to have 2xds and need some time to decide whether to ttc again (dh wants me to) or be happy with my lovely family.

This thread has so much energy I'm sure it will perk me up.

Welcome jkklpu Do you mind if I abbreviate that next time as I couldn't remember it So sorry about your MC. I understand that feeling of whether you want to try again. It's a hard decision and not one you need to make right now. Put your feet up and have a and glass of . I think this is the quietest the thread has been today, sometimes it is manic so just keep up as and when you can that fits round you.

Chloe - JKK is fine. I chose a really sill name when I joined MN a couple of years ago and just never got around to changing it. Will keep it on my watchlist.
