Ok ladies, here we go a nice new thread for us to share our fears and smiles on.

Lets keep smiling and positive, and make sure that this is a Happy year for everyone.

Life is far too short to waste, and after such a rough year for most of us last year, lets make 2006 an extra special one x x x

evening ladies have to apologise for not being on here for a while. I realise that im normally all chatty but af is due and im really worried that im thinking too much into no af symptoms and secret;y daring that i could be pg. Don't want to seem like a fool when af does indeed arrive
anyway am testing on tuesday so will keep everyone posted
HK am thinking of you hun keep everything crossed for you xx

g4p - i understand what you mean but it really is easy peg feeding. i was nervous at first but we're both used to it now. if my family wanted to learn i'd show them a few times myself and then watch them do it a few times and then they should have the confidence to do it. also i'd make sure i was always contactable so there wouldn't be a problem. there's no point in pushing people to do something they don't want to do though. if they wanted to learn i'd feel more comftable leaving dd with them but if i have to push them to learn how to do it i really wouldn't like leaving her with them.
hk - good luck with the blood tests at least this way you'll get a clearer picture of what is going on
carly - good luck with your pg test. i can't wait until tuesday now to get your results and ch's, it's so exciting. i'm going on a portage trip to the space centre (a huge light theropy centre in preston) with dd and dp but i will deffo make time to get on the computer to read your results, so please post as soon as you both have them on tuesday morning.

going4potty · 15/01/2006 21:32

kk, im sorry to hear that, its a shame they are missing out imho But just to make you feel better, although ds is potty trained, fairly easy to look after, eats ok, sleeps ok ( not at mo though) mil still hasnt offered to look after him so we can have a break, he is now three and hasnt suffered from eczema for a year. To make it worse she is young she lives on her own and does her other sons ironing washing, shopping for him etc, yet even when we asked for her help, she said she was busy. We have never asked again and quite frankly, she dissapoints me, with her lack of interest. Ds is her only grand child for forseeable future. I am not bitter but i know where you are coming from

going4potty · 15/01/2006 21:50

Well im back on the satellite van 2morrow, but only as third person. Boss has been great about easing me in. Problem is, we had a new van while i was of, so loads of new quirks and working practices to get use to yipee!!!!

diddle · 16/01/2006 07:49

Morning Ladies - fingers crossed for you CH .

you lot have given me loads to read since Friday, fancy chatting so much over the weekend.

Morning all!

Diddle - I didn't think we were that chatty this weekend!

Well, I went to bed with pains of some description last night. Felt like period pains but still nothing this morning and I'm a day late, unless my cycle has gone to pot again. Not testing til tomorrow though!
Not sure how I feel about it all really - very mixed emotions. If I am I will be so pleased but disappointed I won't be able to go to college, but if I'm not I'll be devastated Ah well, we'll see what happens tomorrow.

kreamkrackers · 16/01/2006 08:56

morning everyone. had to come on to tell everyone of my weird dream last night. i dreamt about twins! i don't think i'll be having twins though as they aren't in my side or dp side of the family. i was hoping it's a sign for my sister who has been ttc for almost a year now. they've had all their tests done at a fertility clinic and the only things they've found is that she doesn't always ov and she has a heart shapped womb. they're going to talk through the results more next month though. she already has a ds who's nearly 4 now and she developed a rare perminent diabeties from when she had him so she thinks it might also be to do with that. i felt really bad lying to her when she phoned me yesterday, i told her af hadn't arrived but i hadn't tested yet, dp wants to keep it a secret but i don't think i can. also she might be really upset if i keep it from her although i know it will also hurt her that she's been trying for so long without success.

ch - i'm getting pains in my stomach. sometimes they're really sharp shooting pains and other times they feel like i've just started af. also getting a lot more waves of sickness and fainting feelings coming and going. seem to be perminently tired, have a headache and more forgetful than usual! i never had morning sickness with dd or with the pg i mc with but as it's a good sign of pg i'd like to have just a little.

Aww, your poor sister KK, but I'm sure she will have some luck - perhaps you can rub some of your babydust on to her! And TWINS!!! well!

Well, in favour of me possibly being PG, I am even more clumsy than normal, I'm sleeping much better, and I am on the loo every 10 minutes! I examined my boobs last night in the bath (! Carly!) and found a few little bumps that could be tubercles, but I don't often look at my nips, so they might have been there forever!!

GOD!!! Roll on tomorrow so I can test!! Just want to know one way or t'other now!!

Hiya all.
Well rang epu, got scan booked for Wednesday and forget what I said about them being nice lol, she did'nt know her arse from her elbow. She said I'd either already mc (not a chance, no bright red blood), a urine infection (had enough to know it's not) or I may not even be pg at all (hmmmm funny that considering just done a test and it's a bright pink +, stronger than the first, even more than the control line).
So I'm sat now in tears, freaking out lol. Surely if it's stronger that means it's not dying and if it's not dying then I'm an evil cow because I thought it was and had a few beers last week! I don't know what's worse, bad pain or putting myself through horrendous guilt trips, think definitely the guilt trips.
Oh god I'm a hormonal nutcase!
Sorry all for this raging insanity .
Anyhow, CH.... you're pg I betcha
Hope everyone's good. xxxxxxxxxxxx

HellKat · 16/01/2006 09:41

still not getting hopes up though.

kreamkrackers · 16/01/2006 09:44

hk - a sronger pg test means a stronger pg. i take that as a good sign. my pg tests went fainter and fainter when i had my mc until about 2 weeks later when i got a negative. it took a few weeks after af was due to finally get a good positive, then i started bleeding at 10 weeks i think it's brilliant sign. stupid b*tch on the phone!

carly82 · 16/01/2006 09:45

HK easier said then done but try to relax. A few beers aren't going to matter, i drunk so much at the beginning of my pg with ds1 (b4 i found out of course)im surprised he wasnt pickled!! Sounds like things could be ok especially with the test if you were m/c then the line would be faint by now or maybe not even there, am keeping everything crossed for you xx

HK - i think you're still preggers hun, and i am really pleased you're getting checked out. i had a funny feeling that you might have been wrong. Fingers crossed baby is fine and well, and that the stupid woman you spoke to on the phone is NOT there on Wednesday.
