ok, as the january thread reached 1800 posts exactly, well it did at last count, I think it's time we started the February thread. Now February has lots going for it, valentines, extra reasons for BD, it only has 28 days, the average length of a menstral cycle, .. so me thinks feb will be a very positive month for all of us!

Happy BD to all! (((hugs))) xxx

hi all, wow at this rate the thread will get way beyond the 1800 posts that the last one did.

Hope you're all ok, pussycat I sent you an email so I have your email address in my address book now, trace when do you get your blood results back? or do you have to wait until the day 3 test as well?

Well I am coming down with the flu like thing as well me thinks. DH has had it for the past 3 days and now that he's going back to work it's my turn. amazing isn't it that when dH's get sick they get to stay in bed, but when we get sick we have to carry on anyway? you can take a day off work when you're sick but you don't get a day off being a mummy. Although DH did offer to take the day off if I was sick but he can't really do that.

anyway hope all well and happy BD to all xx

Hi all, I'm a newbie to the group. I have one ds who is 2 1/2. Anyone else on the thread who's also 40?

skerriesmum · 01/02/2006 00:25

Hi I'm here, is anyone still up?

mumswish · 01/02/2006 08:36

Hi Jabberwocky, cool name how did you think of that? I'm 21, not sure how old everyone else is i'm afraid.

Morning girls,

How are you all this morning? I'm feeling completely bummed out today. Everything is going wrong literally feel like just crawling back into bed and staying there.

Hi all, hi jaberwocky and welcome. Trace2 is 40 I think but she'd have to confirm that herself of course. I'm 32 this month and have a DS who is 3.2

how is everyone today?

wuzzlefraggle · 01/02/2006 09:42

morning every1!!
hi jabberwocky, im 20.
mumswish, why are u so down??
thanks peachy, i'll send you and email

hows the bding going everybody?

mumswish · 01/02/2006 09:50

ok here goes, this is gonna take a while.

The house!!

He hasnt fixed the patio doors, which will cost about £200 to replace + VAT.
He hasnt done the top soil (its above the damp proofing) which will cost another £50-400 depending on how bad it is.
He hasnt asked the councils permission to lower the kerb which will cost £100 just for permission then £350-500 to do the work.
He hasnt replaced the cooker £400
He's not out (£280 per month in rent)

DP's Tribunal
Theyre not only appealing the amount but the actual decision and according to Citizens advice if the judge has agreed (which she has) theyre allowed, the ruling could be overturned completely if they've got a good enough solicitor (which they have) so now Dp's gotta get a solicitor ££££££'s

Flat
We've now got water coming through our celing (ever so slowly), the guy downstairs last night had music blaring all night (well till 4am this morning)

Work
My boss is off today but she's left LOADS of work on my desk which I cant do cos she didnt tell me what she wants me to do so i'm gonna get told off tomorrow for not doing work she didnt tell me how to do!!

I'm just stressed, fed up and want everything fixed

NatalieJane · 01/02/2006 09:51

Good morning ladies

Welcome Jabberwocky I am 22 and have a gorgeous DS who is nearly 4 years old, he isn't very well though today so he is feeling very sorry for himself!

Just wanted to say about the potions and concoctions we are advised to take, I didn't mean they were a waste of time I just don't find them usefull, however I do take folic, and did with my first - just incase anyone thought I was trying to put people off doing what is right for them.

And Wuzzle congratulations, I didn't read down the thread yesterday so I missed your news! Not long to go till June, you must be in a bit of a panic now!

Mumswish, I hope there is nothing too serious that is making you feel down?

pussycatmomma · 01/02/2006 09:55

morning ladies
im still a really poorly girl so will prob only be on for a few mins....cant seem to shake this flu type thing off at all. feeling really fed up.
News on my sister, not good im afraid, she did a test yesterday and got a BFN
she is going to clinic this morning so they can do the "official" test, and they will give her their result tomorrow. I just feel so sad for her.........she is obviously devastated. Its horrid seeing someone going through that and not being able to do a thing to help, the only thing that will ever make it ok is when she is finally holding her baby in her arms. I didnt like to post this yesterday, there was so much chat going on, i didnt want to barge in with my own feelings and sad vibes.
Hope you are all ok today.
Still no sign of my af, but im feeling so rough that any symptoms i might have are lost with this bug. Feel horridly sick, but think it must be down to coughing so much.
((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))))))to all x x x x
wannabe thanks for the mail, i will mail you when i am a bit better.

NatalieJane · 01/02/2006 09:55

It never rains but it pours mumswish. Hopefully it will all start to sort itself out, but until then just keep thinking about how you will feel when you find out you are expecting, that seems to always overshadow any thing that is going wrong for me

mumswish · 01/02/2006 09:57

PCM - dont ever feel you cant post because we're chatting darlin' would rather help than chat.

So So sorry to hear about your sister, I just hope it is a flase negative and the official test will say she's pg,

Natalie - wish I could think of that but I cant get pg will we've got the house so thats abit of a downer on things too.

wuzzlefraggle · 01/02/2006 09:58

thanks natalie yeah, must say, i ma looking forward to it, but at the same time, theres still loads to thinks about.
mumswish...you seem to be going through a hell of a lot this last few weeks. you really do have my best wishes that everything sorts itself out.
im a bit pants today too. friend of mine found out she was pregnant...dont get me wrong, im over the moon for her,adn shes a lovely preson, im just feeling a little sorry for myself because she wasnt even trying (on pill and using condoms, believe it or not) and this is my month 5 of ttc...ah well, never mind i guess.

wuzzlefraggle · 01/02/2006 10:00

pussycat...mumswish just summed it up...we would much rather be able to offer help and support than chat. im really really sorry to hear about your sister (((hugs))) xx

mumswish · 01/02/2006 10:00

wuzzle, dont feel worried that you're slightly miffed she's got pg. Everyone feels like that when they find out someone else got pg when they were trying.

Take time to feel annoyed but just dont let your friend now that.

Keep Smiling

pussycatmomma · 01/02/2006 10:01

thanks guys...
im going back to bed now, i think i feel the illest i have ever been.

mumswish · 01/02/2006 10:02

PCM - get better soon and I hope the reason you're feeling so crap is cos a BFP is on its way! Get well soon.

NatalieJane · 01/02/2006 10:04

PCM - Hi firstly Sorry to hear about your sister and that you aren't well.

Mumswish, Sorry I thought you said you were sort of trying. When everything seems to be going wrong and things are getting on top of me, I take myself off for a nice long bath, do my hair/nails/make up (which ever!) and just relax for a bit, then when I feel ready I sit down and write everything down that I am worried/stressed/pissed off about and then do everything I can to sort them out, (or kick other people's arses into gear so they can sort them out!!! ) There isn't really much help that can be given over a forum except being able to get some of the built up stress out, but I do hope things start to settle down for you soon. {{{big hugs}}}

wuzzlefraggle · 01/02/2006 10:05

you take it easy pussycat, and i hope that u start feeling better

thanks mumswish...just a little envious i guess

nevermind though,i just needed to get it off my chest, sorted now. she knows shes got my 100% support whenever she needs it

trace2 · 01/02/2006 10:06

pussycat, mumswish is right, give (( hugs))) to you and your sis, do a test hum you might be surprised, i still not got your e-mail addy

NatalieJane · 01/02/2006 10:11

One tip I do have for any expectant mum or a mum who hasn't tried it before for whatever reason.... Calpol!!! Works a treat, wondering if I should get his uniform on and take him to school!

mumswish · 01/02/2006 10:12

Nat - we're kinda not caring at the mo but i've had to stop not caring since SOOO many probs have appeared. At the time we decided to not care all we were waiting for was for him to move out. I'll just be glad when its done.
Just wrote a long letter to the solicitor telling them all the things we want sorting & that if its not fixed in 3 wks we dont want the house! kinda hoping that calling his bluff will make him shift!

Wuzz - I can understand you being envious, but it will be your turn soon.

NatalieJane · 01/02/2006 10:14

Wuzzle you will probably find that if she knows you are TTC, she would have felt wierd telling you her news! It is only natural to ask why it isn't your turn yet, but the day will come soon - I have got a feeling!!!
