The 6th form post mc ttc and pregnancy common room Part 2

[brokenbarrenbrook]

Getting us started on a new thread; this one is gonna be a lucky one!

Oooh meant to say, does anyone else suffer from sore boobs? I can't touch mine this month and they've been like this for 7 days now ...owwwww!

Thanks everyone for your congrats and to apples for remembering me . There is definitely a faint line this morning rather than a shadow-of-where-the-line-should-be so I'm feeling a bit more definite about it if that makes sense.

loola sorry you're in the Gloomy Place right now, I had a look at your chart and it does lopk a bit bizarre but I think they've drawn the coverline too high, and that dip at 9dpo could actually turn out to be something promising?

ladybee hmmm...good that the tests are back to neg even though I know it doesn't feel good. Re being in the mood, tbh if you're feeling up to it, why not? I would just go for it if you feel ready.

loola I only ever get sore boobs when updiffed, but some people get them as a AF symptom, don't they.

Joined a new gym, just off there now. Am V excited!

digi hey love, nice to see you. Good news on your referral, I'm with St Mary's too, we've been seeing Raj Rai who is a bit bonkers but v nice. We're considering seeing Shehata too so will also be interested in hearing about your appointment.

collie congrats!

izzy lovely that line's getting darker, all looking good for a sticky

mummya thank you so much, again, you're a legend! I haven't been brave enough to make an appointment yet, will do it next week once AF has been and gone. Will go armed with evidence galore to try and talk her round

loola I don't know anything about charts but if the others say it looks good it probably is. Fingers crossed.

freezing it's gonna be a lucky one for all us old timers! (as in length of time we've been hanging round here, not age you understand!)

Waves to everyone else, have a good weekend all

getawiggle I'm so glad that your body has bounced back to normal quickly, (obviously not glad that it wasnt sticky, but if it has to go wrong, better this way than any other)Lets hope that one was just a trial run, and this month will bring a long lasting relationship between sperm and egg!

battery cramping sounds interesting, I will be watching this space...

digi your two pronged approach sounds brilliant. I hope both manage to come up with something useful

loola Yes! I have sore boobs and I am up the duff! When will you start testing loola? (Sorry about your dd by the way)

BB thats good if you have time to do some homework and get all pysched up

Izzy oh good stuff on the line starting to appear! Mine took about 4 days to go from a whisper that DH wouldnt have been able to discern to a feint line.

Lady horray for the negative! (the only one that gets cheered)

anyone seen AandR? Hope you are Ok, lovely xxx

Izzy that is truly wonderful news, well done my dear! Hope you go from strength to strength now. Hurrah!

I'm with DD so just sneaking a peek, will catch up properly later x

arrrrrrggggh stupid f-ing internet connection!!

Bloody pooter lets me type a lovely long catch up response and then won't load the page or let me go back and rescue the post before it crashes. Gah gah gah.

I'm a bit pissed off at the world tonight. This isn't helping.

Big (((hugs))) ladybee I hate it when the technology gangs up on you too! Hope you're ok and your evening got better xx

Boo for cd 1 BB.

I have done nada all day. Dp has taken himself off for a 12 hour bike ride, and I'm at home with ds. He has been watching star wars again a film, and I've been looking at wedding stuff that I can't afford, and have no inclination to do! So if any of you are a) bored or b) married or c) have nice wedding ideas please tell me about them!

ladybee did you manage to get the house sorted a bit the other day? Is it September that you're going?

izz how are you today, sinking in at all?

jolls hope you're ok. Feel like I haven't seen you much.

Is everyone else well, battery how many DPO are you now? Fx for you!

Waves to freezing aandr Ali mummya and all

YRMOTB we did our wedding v v cheaply. It cost us £3000 although that was 10yrs ago. One of the things which saved us loads of money was to get everyone to bring a dish for the buffet (we didnt have any hot food). We ended up with loads of lovely food.

Also, for flowers speak to your local colleges, the students on the flower arranging type courses would probably do them cheap.

You don't need to book a DJ, just make a playlist on an MP3 player. You'll probably find a hall or a friend with a PA system of some sort to play it over.

ladybee I hope you are feeling better today.

How is everyone else doing in here?

hello everyone. Am typing from knackeredsville. Have been working all weekend and am tired out.

lady sounds a bit stressful in your house at the minute - are you ok?

izzy are you getting used to the idea of being up the duff??:)

mummy are you still mentalling or settling down now?? xx

Looking out for mouse and A and R - hope you are both ok.

babe am 10dpo tomorrow - I know the list says I am due in 3 days but I ov a bit late so think I am not due till saturday. I don't want to test till I am late (if only) as DP will be here then so I will feel better if it is a bfn.

My friend came over today all excited that her and her DH are trying for a baby. She is not even pregnant yet and has bought lots of stuff - worked out matt leave and pay. Part of me thinks it's sweet she is so innocent about it all but part of me wants to shake her and shout vile things :( am turning into a horrible person :(

YRMOTB I did a wedding for 120 people in Costa Rica and then a reception in England for 50 people for £2000 - we spent about 1k on each. IMO its much more fun when you have a tight budget (and no time - we threw it all together in a month!) because you cant afford to agonise over every decision, just chose the cheapest and easiest option! We managed to buy our flowers direct from the farmer (can you do that in England?) and got a friend to arrange them) I also got some really beautiful hand made invitations done for £10 in CR. My dress was an evening dress from a high street shop and cost £30. The only thing that went horribly wrong was asking a friend to do the formal photographs - she never gave me the films!!

battery Havent had much chance to worry because all day puckiness kicked in really early and its been all consuming. I'm on meds now, so its eased a bit, but its still enough to be all I think about all day long. Roll on week 12!!!

ladyB you always write such lovely posts, so I am just going to imagine what it was that you typed and lost and say "thanks, how lovely of you to say so"

sicly wave to everyone else xxx

battery it's so difficult isn't it? Many people have absolutely No idea about everything that can go wrong, and once upon a time most of us were in that group. It's so hard. Hopefully your friend will be one of the lucky ones. Does she know about your situation? I'm also due for AF, but on Sunday. (short LP)

Thanks ma and velvet. It's lovely hearing other peoples tales. I may be a bit nosey. It will definately be on a budget, the problem will be numbers, so far I'm on around 70 people which is purely friends and immediate family. I do have a lovely friend who will hopefully, if I ask him, be the photographer. Other lovely friends are designers with eyes for detail, so hopefully will help with decoration etc. Sorry for taking over the thread, but it's giving me something to obsess over instead of CM for a while I may venture into the wider world of MN and ask the masses.

sorry she got you bb x

So do we have battery and yrmotb coming up for poasing this weekend? Will be keeping my fx for you both, beanbags are reserved in the freak out room x

Hi sorry for rant last night. Had a bit of a shocker with DH yesterday, he did something that really hurt my feelings - he didn't know he'd done it - and I'd been pushing it away all day. Finally let it all out in bed, wept and wept and had a cuddle and fell asleep. Feel better today for having had it out.
Things are stressful here, but I can cope when I know DH is on my side, felt distraught when I felt let down by him.
It is stressful at ours at the moment, we leave in May so things are just ramping up now. Hoorah my mum is arriving this week, and I did get the place cleaned up, and it's still looking ok plus I've managed to turn the office into a spare room with a bed and everything

YRMOTB - we did our wedding quite cheaply, had to be as we had to fly back to NZ for it and are skint at the best of times . We decided to do ours as a traditional afternoon tea, little sandwiches, cakes etc, lots of champagne, and then also had a Nice Ham (so MN) and lovely cheeses on a sideboard for when people were milling about after and lawn games. That was for about 60 people, the location meant lots of people naturally couldn't come, and went from about 1-6pm, then we took the littlies home, put them to bed and a smaller group of us went to a restaurant for dinner. My mum did the flowers, my MIL did the cake and my aunts all contributed pretty vintage embroidered tablecloths that went on all the tables.

It was lovely

battery ooof, your friend, I'd find that nigh on impossible I think. Sad for you and all of us who won't ever feel like that. Good luck for this cycle.

Izzy well m'dear, just day by day is the way to get through - I always feel really anxious for the ladies who had later losses - such a long way to go before they pass their milestones. But you'll get there, I'm sure

huh - it's obviously so stressful here I'm repeating myself

IZZY IZZY IZZY :o :o :o

Just popped over to say huge congrats to you - I missed all you guys when you moved over here from the other thread, you were so supportive and friendly and I have been hoping for you as you've been so patient - know you will not be counting your chickens yet but it is just great news :)

much love to you and now I will skulk back to t'other thred - I feel like an oldie on there already!

waves to everyone else!

Warning: crazy symptom spotting alert
Am 9 or 10 DPO here, no AF yet(due today or tomorrow), LOTS of cm, feeling dizzy, crampy and nauseous....
I've put a copy of my chart on my profile - anyone care to take a look - should I go buy tests at lunchtime?!

And now I read more: HUGE congrats to izzy - your BFP came on my birthday, so that's got to be a lucky sign

On this profile, zam? I can't see it. I'll have a look though!

Ah. Summat gone wrong with t'interweb... Will try again later, after I get back from school run & possible test purchase

izzy your parents sound lovely, especially your mum for being considerate in removing your maternity stuff in the first place and then washing and ironing it!!

battery I have a friend like that, she is talking about not changing jobs as she comes off the pill next month and if she gets a job somewhere else (despite hating the one she is in) then she won't get maternity blah blah, I felt like shaking her too and saying you have to live now not presume it will all work out as you plan it....although I bet (and hope) for her it does

zam those signs sound promising but I will give you a little slap

Just popping in to offer Loola a nice squishy hug today after chart-stalking. We do have a lovely beanbag set aside for you, and I shall just nip off to polish it ready for this month.
