goodmorning everyone.

WannaBump - How are you today, let us know as everyone is really worried about you.

Hope everyone has a good day planned!

Diddle · 04/11/2005 08:15

ok shelley - hope you're ok x x x feel free to cat me if you don't want to announce everything to the world. hope you're coping.

maddyd · 04/11/2005 08:32

Morning Everyone. Sorry not been around lately but finding this month very difficult as baby was due around now as Diddle knows and im sure is feeling the same too. Everywhere i go there seems to be ladies about to pop and i feel so sad and hurt that its not me too. So anyway ive been a bit tearfull and prone to tantrums

Saw my Oestopath and my pelvis bones were jammed causing a few back problems, as soon as he said it and released it it made me think could that be the reason. If i hold onto the next one i will send him flowers.

Can someone fill me in on any news. Whats happened to Shelly?? I do hope she is ok. Love to you all. 5 days till i ovulate and 10 days till i fly off. Obssessed or what

mumswish · 04/11/2005 08:37

Maddyd, glad to hear your ok. Was wondering where you were. I hope you enjoy your holiday! What you doing until then?

Morning Diddle, How are you this morning? Hows tummy?

Girls, quick question. Cos we're getting a house we've had to move ttcing back abit but in the meantime should I go back on to my pill while i'm waiting? esp after what happened last time? Also if not, what else can I use except condoms, which I really DONT trust

maddyd · 04/11/2005 08:54

If i was you Mw i wouldnt go back on the pill as its for a short length of time. You can use the old condoms if needs must or withdrawel method which works well for friends of mine. I know 2 that use it. Or abstain from sex 5 days before you ov and 3 days after. {grin]

Not doing much just trying to clear a large workload before we go. Plus i have stuff like nails and hair to get done. All fun stuff. Just trying to keep busy really.

mumswish · 04/11/2005 09:00

I'm getting my hair cut this weekend hopefully. I've just got over nits that my cousin gave me and just wouldnt die, so my hair is down to nearly my butt. I like the length its just you cant do ANYTHING with it so am getting it cut.

Withdrawal method wont work for us, embarassing for him if I explain so I wont. Maybe condoms, or whats a coil like? or a diaphragm (sp?) does it hurt to get them put there, is it worth putting there? for about 6months?

Diddle · 04/11/2005 09:13

maddyd - yep, know just how you feel, my due date would have been the 11th, next week, can't believe its come so fast, HK's is tomorrow too, its a tough month for us due in Nov lot. Shelly has gone back to work i think, Tuesday just gone, must ahve been tough and obviously not gone very weel from what she's said. but thats all we know at the moment.

MW - tummy is fine thank you, feeling ok in the mornings now, just have a constant headache/hangover, but then after lunch it seems to get worse, as my energy levels drop. can't find anything decent to eat, apart from junk, looking forward to my chinese tonight. yum

mumswish · 04/11/2005 09:14

Diddle - Not expecting you to, but do you look pg yet? do you feel pg?

Coathanger · 04/11/2005 09:17

Maddyd - Pop over anytime! would love to chat xxxx

OP posts:
Diddle · 04/11/2005 09:17

yes according to Coathanger i look 5 months. and feel pregnant, yes, feel very "full" My belly is huge. but think because i miscarried twice in the last 11 months my body stored lots of fat to protect baby and i never had chance to get rid of it, so i have 3 pregnancies worth of padding now. but everyoe has commented on how big i look, esp for so early on. i'm in maternity clothes, cannot fit in my normal ones. and i'm not a big girl, was size 12 on top and 14 on bottom, so average really.

mumswish · 04/11/2005 09:21

oh Im so happy for you didds, its almost as good as me having one, I'm really looking forward to you reaching your milestones.

maddyd · 04/11/2005 09:28

Mumswish, never used a diaphram thingy, have had coil but i didnt get on with it. For six months though it may be the best option. if you go on the pill for 6 months it may stay in your body for a while. What aboout the mini pii????? You take it constantly with no break and it doesnt have as much hormone stuff in it so will leave your body alot wuicker iyswim. You have to take it at the same time veryday.

Coat hanger id love to pop over but not allowed to do too much on mn as meant to be working also im a bit of worrier and i need fate to let me leave theese ttcing threads when im really really pregnant as in at least 16 weeks.

mumswish · 04/11/2005 09:34

I could try the mini pill, not sure if they'd give it me tho. I remember something about it when I went to go on the pill the first time, I dont know if they said I couldnt have it. Will look into it. Thanks Maddyd

slinkstah · 04/11/2005 09:35

morning all
mumswish - the coil is ok, you can get one with hormones and one without. it does hurt a little when putting in and out and can make AF heavier, so not really good with people who are heavy already. i had a coil for 5 years and it worked well.

my due date came and went and only my sister rang to see how i was bless her, i got extremely pissed. it was september. hang in there maddyd and dids

its been a hectic few weeks for me i am feeling very tired and have uni deadlines every week for the next 6 weeks so mission on! its good to keep busy though.

mumswish · 04/11/2005 09:40

morning slink. Maybe I shouldnt do the coil then cos I get ridiculously heavy af's so minipill is looking more likely at the mo.

Good luck with your uni deadlines, I was never good with deadlines. I'm abit better here now luckily!

wannabump2006 · 04/11/2005 09:47

Hi everyone,only just got up....have been absolutly exsausted for the past three days.....oh god,what do i say!!??....well firstly i'm ok 'health' wise,but mentally i'm falling apart
I went back to work for the first time on tuesday,and had been sick with nerves all weekend,all the girls were nice enough,asking how i am,checking if i'm ok etc etc,but the management are something else!!I've never really got on with the director/owner of the company,hes very 'money' orinentated,and if he can get the workers cheaper and for longer,he will.
He came into the nursery on tues and the first thing he said to me is,'ah,michelle,are you attending our christmas do,i need numbers'!!!!...i was like,'oh,um i don't know really',..I was gobsmacked!!!no 'how are you' etc,nothing!!
So i basically got hassle on the first day about stuff happening at christmas,and how i really should go,i don't even think we're doing alot of celebrating this year anyway because of all thats happened.!!!
Wednesday,i wanted to discuss my contract with a lady who works under the director,as she deals with all that....because i'm trying to settle back into work i'm only doing tues-thurs part-time for awhile,then i was going to see if i wanted to carry on doing part-time or go back to full-time later on.
She basically said i'm being put on a part-time contract,that i wouldn't be entitled to holiday until i'd been part-time for atleast a year!!(i've worked for them for nearly 4 years!),and that this month i'd only be paid 2 weeks money because the payroll cut off period for part-time contractors is the 14th of every month!
I was gutted.........in uncontrolable tears
Thursday,i heard from several collegues i work with,trust and have known for a long time,that there had been alot of back stabbing chat going on behind my back,and the new manager who has only really been there a couple of months,hasn't got a clue about people skills,and REALLY can't do her job,i have instantly taken a dislike to,as she shows no sympathy to me atall,she just expects me to be as i was before,and i just can't!!!!I haven't got it in me anymore!!
I couldn't wait to get out of there last night,and again,i was in uncontrollable tears!!!!I feel like there treating me like s**t!!.I'm good at what i do!!I just need abit of time to settle back into it,is that so much to ask!!?
I feel betrayed,heartbroken,and on the verge of a break down,all over a bloody job!!!
I'm going to hand a letter of resignation in on monday,and look else where,i just didn't think they would make it so hard for me to try and return to work!!
What do you all make of it?(sorry i've written an essay!!).x

mumswish · 04/11/2005 09:59

firstly shelley, I'm really sorry to hear your feeling this way. I wish I could come and give you a proper hug but I cant so a cyber ((((((((((((((HUG)))))))))) will have to do I'm afraid.

Dont hand a resignation in on monday, leave it another week at least, it may just be thats its hard to settle in straight away and feels as though everything is going wrong.

Have you got a HR person in your workplace? if so, go speak to her, explain how your feeling. Tell them everything, if they dont know they cant understand. If you're only working part-time holidays arent a big issue at the moment, try and work past it but dont sign the contract if you want to try and get them later.

Other than that I dont know what else to say Shelley. I just hope that everthing turns out alright for you. Have you looked for a different job in case it doesnt turn out ok? Make sure you've got another job to go to as its a lot easier to get a job when you've got one.

Diddle · 04/11/2005 10:02

oh shelly that is terrible, i'm not surprised you feel so low, they should be supporting you, and helping you back into your role, you are obviosuly good at your job. I'm sure fi you were feeling stronger then maybe you woudl be able to say all these thinsg to them, about how upset it is making you. I can't believe they are treating you as though you ahve never worked there before regarding benefits etc, surely thats not allowed, have you been off sick, or did you leave then go back? They have obviosuly never been in your position, I think if you see no sign of this getting any easier or them being any nicer then i would find something else. Your healh and wellbeing is so much more important, and if theres ones thing miscarriage has taught me, its how short life can be, and that we need to make the most of it. I hope you sort something out shelly, and we're all here to support you.

maddyd · 04/11/2005 10:06

Shelly thats terrible, how awfull for you. i dont blame you for resigning in, its not a good envoirement for you to be in. A new job and a fresh start will be good for you. Also are they allowed to not pay you holiday pay. Partimers have exactly the same rights as full timers and that year shit is exactly that.Shit. xxxxx

maddyd · 04/11/2005 10:07

Sorry i had a little rant there but i hate to see people treated so appallingly.

slinkstah · 04/11/2005 10:16

wannabump- this sounds awful, i think you should resign. nothing is worth this much stress. you need some time, people should not expect you to jump straight back into it, but they don't really know what you hae been through, they might know the facts but they have no idea how you feel. and they will never understand. this is why all of us are here on mn as we really do understand.

maybe a change of job would be new start, i moved house after i lost my baby at 23 weeks and that really helped me start stepping out into the new path of life.

your health is more important than your job. walk out of your job today tell them to stick it. of course i realise money might be a big issue why you might not beable to do this, but plan b would be go to your drs tell them how you are feeling get yourself signed off sick for a few months, you will get full wages for a while, look for other oportunities and then tell them to stick it!
