Emmsys weebling onwards and upwards into summer.

[VJay]

Here we are a new spruced up greenhouse

Please can we remember that we're all here to support each other. We've all been through far more than we should ever have to go through, and only us girls understand that. No one has intentionally upset anyone, we all do what we think is best to help everyone. Big group hug please.

Group hug moon
Have you got dates for things happening this month?

:) and perhaps all round

vjay I've recently had 2 sets of bloods taken, and our consultant appointment is on the 23rd of this month. Only 2 more Fridays and then it will be here . Poor Cjay, kids can be so cruel sometimes, but sadly its part of life and will hopefully make him a better person for it.

The 23rd will be here before you know it
cjay will be ok but I need his teacher to be aware because it's hard enough for him to sit and concentrate on his basic work let alone the added stress of someone being mean to him. A lot of stuff usually goes over his head bless him but this has got to him. He will learn but it will take longer than a nt child.

its a good job he has his best mum to help him through it :)

Thanks moon but believe me it's bloody hard and heart breaking at times.
Now I'm off to make a and feed my monkeys, ajay is a grizzly hungry monkey right now and cjay is sitting on me!

Monkeys are fed and just want to add to my last post that I wouldn't change a thing

Moon fwiw I think you are handling your situation with amazing strength & dignity. What are they testing for in the blood tests? Might they give you clomid on the 23rd?

BQ yay you go girl, it would be funny if you fell pregnant in like 2 months!

Vjay I too thought that at chocolate number 2's! Just shows how gutteral my mind is sometimes! Total melt at what Cjay said to you. I'd still knee-cap the girls though!

Louey so pleased your ds3 is smiling, these little milestones are so important & it is easy to obsess about the worst when they don't do what they are 'supposed' to do.

Barbie please come back, I know you only copied the list as it was & it's my stupid fault for asking about it yesterday.

4ever hope you are curled up on the sofa now watching X-factor with a glass of wine.

Well I think I'm not actually on the 2ww just yet. I seem to be having a delayed ov as my temp is still down but I've given dh some bedroom orders for tonight!

in hand DS's asleep, DH probably pissed and munching on a kebab somewhere..

Sorry the list has caused upset... barbie only fished it out after MLS asked if it was still around... Shall I try and update reinstalling commando section?

Vjay - my B is eating like a horse just now too! Always dragging me off to the fridge and demolished his macaroni tonight (no-one makes it like Mama Blue . Glad Cjay bounced back with a small 'b' today but dfeffy speak to his teacher. Great idea getting him snazzy pencils etc.

4ever - sorry I wasn't here earlier honey, damn AF... Been there too hoping I was one of the 0.0001% that conceive straight away especially as I was getting +ve OPKs right after my first mc and didn't know that was due to pg hormones still being in your system . We dtd a few times that week and I then (apologies for TMI) had one final eposide of cramping and passed a final clot (two weeks after original natural mc...). That soon brought me down to earth, my body was still mc how the hell could I think I was going to be pg... Felt like an idiot.

Trying think of it as a re-boot of your body, just in time for your hops () when you'll be all mid-cycle and horny . In the meantime keep giving that DH and DD extra hugs xx

Barbie - belated woops that your having a boy . Its a cuddlefest for sure. I make it my mission in life to source lovely clothes for my two which is hard as some shops assume you want to dress them like min men. Jo Jo Mama Bebe is good as is Mini Boden (of course!). There used to be a gorgeous knitwear catalogue I got all of DS's jumpers form but it went bust.. Next is good for baby baby sizes but oce they hit 18 months forget it - no pale blue to be seen!

monkey happy anniversary btw, hope you're having a lovely meal x

louey yes Isaac has all his friend's in P1 with him, they were all at pre-school nursery together and all from our housing estate so we walk to school en masse which has helped their confidence . I'm sure your boys will be fine, as long as they can talk about Lego and Star Wars they will be a-ok! Happy 3 months to Oscar too, what new clothes have you bought him?

cupcake yay! to date night once your sis is around. You know we have family all around and still struggle to get to the piccies .

moon only two Fridays to go... Keep on keeping on until then x

Waves to everyone else, I'm siging off as my is now < >

x-post MLS - get that slanket off now!!!! Or at least unzip it.

Man I've had too much

mls wow thank you, I'm not convinced of that, but its very nice of you to say so. They're just re-tests to confirm my low progesterone/high testosterone, so assuming they come back the same I think they will give me clomid. The consultant last time wanted to give me it there and then, but because he wasnt our normal consutant (she was off sick) he had to double check with someone and they asked for the repeat bloods. So fingers crossed.

blue if you've had too much you're typing pretty bloody well! I love your posts, so thoughtful and you can always say what I think but never comes out right.

Cheers blue - my biggest sadness of AF is the fact its the literal final nail in the coffin of my pregnancy and my lost angel baby....

As for thoughts of being pregnant again, my last 2 ERPCs have been done under ultrasound. to make sure they were 'complete', as my 3rd MC and following ERPC, left 'retained product' and I had to have another ERPC 6wks later. So basically after my ERPCs i know they have got everything, and I barely even bleed after. I don't use OPKs as have really bad ovulation pain anyway, but never wanted to get that clinical tbh. Getting pregnant has never been the problem after all, just keeping them.. So, this time around, cos we dtd a few times and AF was later than it previously was after ERPCs I couldn't help but wonder... As I said my SIL is just one of a few i know of that fell pregnant straight after Mc with no Af so not that rare..

Anyways tis all by the by, my main sadness is obviously that I've miscarried again, and the first AF is always gonna be hard cos that's the absolute finality of it all...

However, I'm the original weeble, as christened by our lovely barbie, so after a very validated wobble, I'm already upright again, never been a fan of self pity, gets you nowhere but feeling crapper than before, so, onwards and upwards, hops are 2wks tomorrow and I have lucky baby 7 to be making

In the meantime I have wine and a wonderful DH to help ease this rather painful and incredibly heavy Af, and best of all my miracle blessing Summer who never lets me be sad cos all I have to do is look at my little answered prayer to know how bloody lucky i am....

Hugs to all those that needed them today - bless our little thread..

Back home now but dh taking over laptop looking for a new car so still on my blinkin phone.

4ever so many mixed emotions :( had to do double take when u said baby 7, such a high number you poor lovely. im glad we have our professional at getting pg mls back on the bench, lots of bfps in no time.

bq hello! well done to luca sleeping well! fab you're trying again too :)
moon u are just lovely & definitely so dignified as mls says. roll on 23rd. how are the wedding plans coming?

blue i can vouch for your great taste in clothes! ds just out of the beautiful brown cord dungarees..he wore them for our photo shoot actually, must add pics!

right dh off laptop im getting on ebay, we borrowed a maclaren stroller for hols & are converted so gonna sell the icandy.

Sorry not kept in touch, I feel so rough. Have vomited about 20-30 times a day since Wednesday. DH has been on nights and my parents are away so DD has trashed the house. The only thing I can eat is tinned pears.
DH's exam is Tuesday so I've been putting on a brave face, but gave up today and DH has taken DD to his parents to study there. DD has been " looking after me" bless her, keeps trying to blow my nose for me when I've vomited. (she's very into blowing noses), but then runs off with the loo roll andrex puppy style!

I'm 7 weeks and 1 day now, yes I want to book a scan but need to feel a bit better first as nearest private scan 25 miles away.

Back in a sec.

Me again.

MLS good to hear you're TTC again!

Moon I hope you get to start clomid very soon. You can be our first twins Mummy! Though I'm sure one at a time is plenty!

Barbie yay for a boy!

4ever boo to AF, hopefully it's just the first day of a healthy new pregnancy. Big hug!

Vjay poor little Cjay. Maybe we need that Barbie-mobile again to scare off the nasty girls! Seriously though, talk to his teacher, hopefully it will all settle down soon.

BQ good luck with TTC again. Hopefully will be much quicker this time round.

cupcake thank you thats very sweet of you, I feel like anything but! Wedding plans, hmmmm.... slowly, and I havent found a dress yet. Is it wrong that I'm not really bothered? I just want to marry my lovely df, I dont really care what I wear, what I eat, where everyones gonna sit, whos making the cake, its all just trivial stuff, I love my df, I want to marry him, the finer details imo dont matter. I think everyone takes this as I dont want to marry him though which is quite difficult. I just want him and one day our family, I've learnt that stuff doesnt matter anymore.

gracie I would so love twins I have long given up on having our ig family, if we can even have one baby it will be a miracle, so if we were to have a multiple birth I would be ecstatic.

ig = big

Moon that is exactly the right way to be about getting married! Too many people like all the fuss of the big day then realise it was the big day they wanted not the man they married. With a bit of luck you'll be getting your dress from Millets tent range to fit your triplet bump into!! Fingers crossed!

moon just elope to Gretna Green that's what I did

vj you are forever going up in my estimation did you really elope?? Grrr at those nasty girls. I'll be on standby for the barbiemobile to pick us up x

lovely strawberry where would we be without your greenhouse? Please don't be upset you are such an important part of this thread xxx

Massive hugs and hairstrokes to 4ever have you everything bought and packed for your hols?!

barbie I'm so pleased you are having a boy and yay for you coming back to the uk. Is it all still up in the air or are things sorted now?

moon you old romantic you I feel the same about weddings. Loved my day but love just being with my dh onwards and upwards for you young lady. Not long now till your appointment

Gracie you poor love but that's a great sign :) with my mmc I was barely nauseous but sick as a dog with curlygirl. Hope I'll be joining you soon

Lovely blue I think it was moon who said you also say the right thing. It's so true. You always phrase things so beautifully :)

Well I guess I am on the 2ww again. I should be dtd tonight to be sure but I'm soooo tired. Here's hoping!!!

Big waves to cupcake and MLS and lbm and monkey and all sorry for the lack of personals i am really fading here zzzzz much love to all

Well we got married at GG but people knew we were going, we had just 4 guests, so a kind of elopement and it was a lovely day.

Just booked a scan for Sunday at 1:30pm. I should be 8 weeks and 1 day by then.

Vjay Gretna Green sounds a fab idea!

Still constantly puking. Getting bored of the view of the inside of my toilet. Maybe it needs pretty pictures.

Urgh gracie you poor thing...yuk. Hope it eases soon. Good luck for scan.

moon totally agree with gracie - with an attitude like that you'll have a long and happy marriage :) We had a nice reception venue but everything else in our wedding was done on the cheap- most stuff coming from ebay, my dress a hand-me-down etc...those things just don't matter. Anyway you'll have much mroe fun on the day if you haven't stressed about everything being 'perfect'.

curly yippee for another on the 2ww...I guess technically I am too though as I said we're not 'properly' trying...just leaning on the bench. Af should come this week but we'll see

Right, ds asleep so can only mean one thing...Grey's Anatomy, yippeeee (and ironing...boooo)
