Coathanger · 12/01/2006 14:36

Yeah I'm okay. Had a cuddle up on the sofa with DS3 and dropped off . Got o shake myself awake to get boys from school in a minute.

Did you feel the burn G4P? I hope you didn't overdo it!

kreamkrackers · 12/01/2006 14:38

hello everyone. didn't test today because i got up late after watching lost last night and had to take dd for an appointment at the hospital. also i'm getting really nervous over it as i want it to be positive so much i'll be really upset if it isn't
hk - i took feminax to cope with the pains of my mc, i too just wanted it to hurry up and be done with too
ch - hk and others are right, never give up hope, people always think the worse outcomes will come true but most of the time they don't
jane - best of luck with the scan, again think positive, like i said before most of the time it's good news
g4p - good luck for dh
everyone else - hope you are all alright

Coathanger · 12/01/2006 14:43

KK- You have such willpower - I would have tested anyway!!

Right ladies, I think you all need to line up and bow before me as I am the brainiest person on this thread (snigger). Just had an email from a girl I am doing this access course with and she told me that I got 100% for my biology exam I did when I went for my interview for the course!!!! OMG!!! Would you believe it!!!!!! So, fromthis day forth I will be known as The All-Knowing Oracle!!! (pmsl - me brainy.....PERLEEEESE!!!!)

kreamkrackers · 12/01/2006 14:46

ch - that's brilliant, send some of the knowledge my way i'm in desperate need of some

FirstNikki · 12/01/2006 14:53

bowing to you right now CH - congratulations all good signs that you will be great on the course and after

So when are you testing KK?? Lost ...disappointed it didn't give many answers at least its back in the spring hey!

Coathanger · 12/01/2006 14:55

Does anyone else know what the end of Lost is?? BIL told me and I laughed I haven't been watching it - saw the first couple of episodes and thought it was poo!

kreamkrackers · 12/01/2006 15:02

thinking of testing tomorrow, i suppose if it's a negative it might not be a true negative until af arrives but it'll still be disappointing anyways. lost is great, i've missed a few on the times we've been in hospital with dd but it's so great, i'm hooked. to me spring seems so far away, what am i going to do in the mean time? well i could come and spend more time on here i was also watching rome and thats ended too, a very dramatic ending there, it was a bit too goory for me (by the way if you haven't already guessed i've become a tv addict!)

FirstNikki · 12/01/2006 15:04

the end of last nights episode in series one or in the end of the series?? Apparently they have enough material to write a few series and series 2 is in spring...

but either way I don't want to know 'cos I will watch it

FirstNikki · 12/01/2006 15:28

sorry...backtracking now carly...good luck with the maths. are you doing any other studies after?

Well done ch, my girl i usually get to go teice a week during term time, so try and make the most of it. But i desperatly need to lose weight, sil probably back in feb, she will be preg and i dont want to be compared in size lol

HellKat · 12/01/2006 17:26

Quick post all.
Ch- So glad you're feeling better hun, feels great to let loose now & then huh? Remember, you're a wonderful person and we love ya! xxx

Hope everyone's had a great day too. Got everything done here and looks like my prayers have been answered and things are finally kicking off (hope it does'nt sound mean to wish that, but when you know deep down that the baby has already died, you need to get back to normal physically). Contractions are kicking in, bleeding's got heavier (still not red though) so will chill out tonight will a well deserved Mini Bud (or 4 ), get the worst over with and brave a new day.
Oh, found another thing that is a must when you've had a shitty time of it girls........... Sainsburys New York Vanilla Cheesecake. A huge slice of that helped too!
I'll be on in the morning and thanks all for being so utterly wonderful as always and putting up with my moans, niggles, bleatings etc.
Love ya all.

HK - I feel really odd saying this but I'm glad it has all picked up and finally clearin gout. I must admit it is a kind of relief - the sooner it starts the sooner it is all over with. {{{{{HUGS}}}}} hunni and take good care of yourself. And the offer still stands - if there is anything I can do, just call! xxxx

jane313 · 12/01/2006 18:05

100% CH, thats very impressive, well done.

Hellkat glad its all happening. I had no idea that mc take this long. God knows why I thought they were instant.

How long is till your period starts again usually? I need to start making consultant appointment. And how long do you usually bleed for? I am on day 4 and feel really tired.

Thanks for all your good wishes. Have no date for breast scan. Was told am on waiting list.

Don't tell me what happened in Lost as have not watched episode 2 yet.

jane313 · 12/01/2006 18:35

just got annoyed at a friends text. She had texted me earlier in the week about going out. So I dithered about telling her and did. She said she was sorry and then went on about arranging this trip to the cinema. I just feel the situation warrented 2 sentences at least. (I know it was a text). I'm not sure how many people I will tell now who haven't been through it themselves.

going4potty · 12/01/2006 18:46

AAH jane know what u mean, most of my family and friends have been brill. But mil bil and fil were useless, didnt ring me only called and spoke to dh. Bil still hasnt said anything and have seen them about 5-6 since it happened. Dh thinks theyre crap about this and is embarrased. I know they care about me, but some people just cannot understand how bad a thing to happen this really is. Now dhs aunt and cousins girlfriend were fab. Try not to be too hard on her and maybe sit her down and explain how awful this has been 4 u?

Well, in an atempt to cheer me up I am hosting an Ann Summers party tonight! I think I deserve a treat!

Jane - I think some people just don't know how to deal with the situation so they say the bear minimum to show they know about it but avoid the issue because they just don't know what to say. really as it only take a hug and an "I'm sorry" but there you go, we're all different.

Charlee · 12/01/2006 20:35

Hi! af arrived with vengence yesterday just after i posted.

im cool though i didnt expect anything first time round, the good thing is that my periods are like clockwork now again after last mc so i should beable to pick uo on any changes.
Well done coathanger brainy or what!

Hope everyone gets a bfp next time

going4potty · 12/01/2006 20:53

This af is really annoying. Well i think its an af anyway. This might be tmi but is it normal? Only having very few drops on pad, not much pain though.

peepee · 12/01/2006 21:08

HK so sorry to hear whats happening to you. We'll get there eventually. )))))))HUGS(((((((((((

I haven't been on for a couple of days cos I have been cleaning the house. I have family coming over from abroad to visit for the next five days so probably won't be on much.

I am feeling a little lousy tonight. I have just had a call from a close freind/colleague who has told me that she is 10wks pg. I am really pleased for her as the last time she tried to get pg she had 4 m/c and then managed to go full term. She is aware of my situation and made me feel a little sad just because she was so worried about what my reaction would be. I am feeling really sorry for myself at the mo. My reaction has annoyed me. I am so pleased for her but just wish it was me too.

Sorry, if I sound selfish. I really don't mean to. I am just getting a little impatient.
