Hi ladies
Just stopping in quickly - need to get back to work!

Moo - so sorry to hear you're still feeling a little sore today, but hopefully it's all worth it. And at least you have the house now to think about...... Are you actually allowed to start ttc again? I'm really hopeful that with you focused on the house move, you'll fall pg without realising!

Lil - glad that the head was really supportive, and hopefully it makes your life at work a little bit easier. FX he does keep his word and not tell anyone until you're ready to!!

As for me, I'm 8DPO. Temps still high - the only "lower" one was on Sunday which was when the clocks went forward. I tested at the same time (7am) albeit it would have been 6am if the clocks hadn't gone forward. So although above the coverline, it was lower than the other temps, so maybe a result of the slighly earlier time for testing or maybe, just maybe (oh please, please!!) it could have been implantation? It would have been 6DPO which I know is slightly early, but in my state of wishful thinking I was researching on the internet and a number of sites suggested implantation between 6-11 DPO. So FX. In any event, it still all looks good, so feeling positive!!

Hope everyone has a chance to enjoy the sunshine!! x

Discolite · 27/03/2012 19:49

Lil I'm glad you had a lovely birthday and have some friends to share in the excitement..it can be hard to know what to do for the best but I don't regret telling the people I told...I did choose carefully though! Grin Also I'm glad you've told your head, you can feel very guilty going off for all these appointments (even though you're perfectly entitled) as it can put colleagues under extra pressure. At least someone knows you've got a cast-iron reason for your absences.

Moo I'm really glad they're all clear - at least that is one less thing to worry about. You need to have a rest now and take it easy. Maybe with a glass of wine? Wink What is next for you now then? Metformin, clomid or something else?

Alex fingers crossed your temps stay high! It's so easy to feel positive in the sunshine, spring is my favourite time of year by far.

We did enjoy the sunshine. We went to the local country park which we haven't visited despite living here for 18 months. It is absolutely gorgeous! Mini sandstone cliffs, violets, wood anemones and ramsons everywhere...in glens leading down to the sea. Absolutely perfect. And the coconut smell of gorse, which to me says 'spring' more than any other scent. Jim the dog enjoyed his walk, we wanted to walk further but he is only 3 and a half months so we had to reluctantly curtail our trip. Still, we'll be back.

I'm still spotting 12 days after the miscarriage but hopefully it'll stop soon. I did another pregnancy test and it's getting fainter thank goodness...interestingly enough, my libido has reared its head and I'm wondering if it's a good sign for ovulation? It seemed to tie in when I was having cycles before...is it too much to hope that the miscarriage has reset my cycles and I will ovulate earlier than CD22 or 23?! Ovulating on CD14 would be brilliant...but I'm probably just being far too hopeful. I may DTD (gently) with DP tomorrow, just in case. I'm a bit worried it's too soon but I just want my life to get back to normal and I know DP would - we've only had sex once since mid January, what with spotting in early pregnancy scaring me and feeling too nauseous to contemplate it.

Anyway, ttfn.

MooleyWooleyShamaLamaDingDong · 28/03/2012 06:44

Morning all!

Alex glad the temps are remaining high. How long is your LP? And the dip at 6dpo sounds interesting, despite the change in times. I'll be honest, I don't think it will make that much difference; I took my temp at what would have been 4(?) and it was not that different to what I was expecting. Hope those temps continue to climb and you get that BFP :)

Disco glad you had a lovely time in the sunshine. And great news about the returning libido! I have heard that you are very fertile following a m/c think it has something to do with your body already geared up for pregnancy. Hope you manage to dtd tonight but don't put too much pressure on yourself. DH will understand if you just don't feel ready yet.

Well we managed to dtd last night, first time since early Feb (was not allowed to do it before the HSG). I was a bit concerned I might be a bit tender in there but DH was very gentle and it was all ok. Just hope I ov this month. I have heard good things for women following a HSG in that it clears everything out, sort of like a spring clean, but not sure what percentage of those had PCOS and ov'd anyway.

Had a look through my notes at the hospital and DH's SA was all fine which was a relief. My ultrasound result also indicated that although I have cysts, the ovaries aren't enlarged and based on that I'm borderline PCOS. Think it's more a hormonal thing.

Hope everyone is ok - chips, Rusulka and festie, how are you all doing?

iloveberries · 28/03/2012 07:02

Hi Ladies, just checking in.... been away with friends which has been nice. Also giving MN a little breathing space.

Glad to see everyone is getting on well.

moo - great news you're appt went well! I have also heard that having your tubes cleaned can do great things even before the clomid. Good luck, you really deserve it and i'm rooting for you.

festie - fab that you had a good scan and saw little one moving - i ache for that one day too :)

Disco - how are you doing? I am giving -ve tests 2 weeks after the ectopic and boobs are back to normal so that makes me feel a little better. Sounds like you'll be starting to try again straight away??

Lil - so happy all's going well with the pregnancy, how far along are you now?

Alex - keeping fingers crossed for you too.

I am doing ok-ish. I have really been trying to focus on other things to take my mind off it but occasionally something happens and I just sob. I went to see doc about when i can try again and he said 3 months. (Apparently risk of another ectopic is much higher following one and i'm already dealing with an inflated risk next time anyway.) It did make me laugh though cause he was talking about how everything is still scarred from the surgery and i need to give it time to heal so I asked the question "When can i have protected sex?" He was a young doc and looked at me confused so I said "Well, I'm not going to wait 3 months to have sex with my husband so I'll use condoms but do I have to wait a while for that too?". He turned round and said (bless him) "Well condoms are only 70% effective so you may still get pregnant using one so I would wait the 3 months. I understad he's only doing his job but I felt like telling him I had well timed unprotected sex for 6 months to fall pregnant this time and i'm pretty sure if i shag, condomed away from the fertile window then i'll be ok!

Anyway - I am patiently waiting for my first period, I just want to know my body is back to normal. Then after the 3 months I think we will have unprotected sex again but i'm doing away with all the gadgetry. I am lucky to have normal cycles so looking back, for me it made it al extra stressful. I am so frightened that it will happen again but if i want another baby i will have to try again so we'll just deal with whatever happens....

Anyway, that's my update, Hope you're all enjoying this awesome weather xx

Lilliana · 28/03/2012 07:27

Hi Berries I'm 6+1 today so still really early. Bless the young doc but not much help! I can't imagine how you are feeling but do things when you are ready, I'm not sure you can plan too far ahead but take things day to day and when you are ready to swOi or swi go for it. I had regular cycles and once I knew the rhythm of my cycle it didn't do anything but add to the stress, I think it was simply that I felt like I was doing something that kept me at it but felt so much better the month I stopped it all (and it worked!). Take care, enjoy the gorgeous weather and being with your DH x

Moo sorry you are still in pain, hope it eases soon. I too have heard good stories about getting pg after your tubes have had a good wash! FX for you. It also sounds positive wrt your pcos not being too bad and DH being ok too.

Disco your trip out sounds gorgeous, we have some areas around here that we really should go and explore, might have to get on with it. Hope the spotting is over soon and enjoy the libido Grin

Alex hope the positivity stays with you and you get the results you want. Everything seems so much more hopeful in the sun. Fx for you.

3 days to go now - had parents eve last night that went really well despite me finding it hard to string a sentence together - surely baby brain shouldn't be taking over yet? Probably just me being me! Just need to get through the next few days and then I can sleep Grin

Rusulka · 28/03/2012 17:48

Moo glad to hear your bits have been through the car wash and it's all looking good. Grin

Went for first swimming sesh today with MiL, would have been nicer with goggles as I had to do pansy breast stroke, but what with the pool being full of old dears flailing around I don't think I could have done lengths even if I wanted to... good exercise though, and only a 20min walk from the house. Will have to get DH in!

Garden is looking good, more bulbs coming up, fruiting cherry just starting to bloom- which unfortunately means that yes, it is in all likelihood pollinated by the rubbish one on the other side of the garden. Piss. That means I can't chop it down and plant something else more interesting, but does mean that i could maybe string a hammock between the two, provided nobody running down the garden minds being decapitated. Grin

Still can't feel Peanut, but checked Dr Google and what with placenta being at front, apparently won't feel anything for aaaaages because it has no nerve endings, and I have to wait for Peanut to be strong enough to kick it and me feel it. Wah. Still no date through for 20 week scan, so those facts combined are doing sod all for my peace of mind.

Going to head out now and do a bulb sprouting count so DH will have something exciting to hear when he finishes work.

Take care, ladies!

MooleyWooleyShamaLamaDingDong · 28/03/2012 18:39

I think I might have EWCM!!!!! Eeeeek Grin

Oooh Rusulka hope that you bulbs continue to flourish. My DH has always wanted a hammock strung between two trees. You go for it! Be nice to while away those hours reading a nice book in the cool shade of the trees!!

Don't know too much about feeling the bobba but hope its not stressing you out too much. Bet you can't wait for that next scan.

I love swimming too, don't get the chance these days, not even sure where my nearest swimming pool is. Will do when we move though. Although thinking of taking up rowing again Smile

I think some of my plants are dying Sad but I also think its my fault for putting them in the grow house too early. Blush

Right going to watch Doctor Who before DH gets back from his run and we can get cracking with dinner!!

alexeliza · 28/03/2012 21:11

Oh Moo!!! I know how excited you must be!!!! EWCM!!! Hopefully this will be it, HSG having cleared out the tubes, and a house move to distract you! I'm keeping absolutely everything crossed for you!! x

Disco, glad to hear that the cycle seems to be heading back to normal. FX that ov does happen earlier for you, and that the BFP is not long in coming.

Berries - as Lil says, bless the young doc but although he's no doubt "keeping to the party line" he obviously has no concept of just how difficult it seems to be to conceive even when you are trying to time things as prefectly as possible. I understand about wanting to get rid of all the gadgetry though.... for the moment I like keeping a record of my temps (just to reassure myself that I do seem to be "working" and ov-ing) but I'm determined not to SS anymore, otherwise it just seems to take over everything. That said, I've just been comparing my chart on FF with other ones...... (note to self - no more comparing charts!! Blush).

Lil - your comment on the baby brain made me smile - I'm sure it's not that yet, just fatigue what with being pg and the end of the term. Hope the rest of the week goes well and you're able to really relax and enjoy the Easter break!!

Rusulka - the garden sounds great and although it's not your ideal situation, at least you can hang the hammock in time for summer. Hope the 20 week scan details come through soon!

Temps were still up this morning (9DPO). As I mentioned just before, it occurred to me to check for similar charts on FF to see if there were others that had an implantation dip at 6 days and if so what the outcomes were. Surprisingly, there were several around 6DPO, so that made me feel a little positive. But I'm determined not to torture myself any further if I can help it. Not sure what my LP actually is - my first cycle was 26 days but no idea when I ov'd, last month's cycle was 36 days and FF had me down as a 25 day LP (I'm sure FF got my OD wrong though).

I was thinking to test on Sunday (13DPO). But we're heading out to dinner with friends on Saturday night where we would be drinking.....whilst I'm of the opinion that when ttc you shouldn't put your life on hold (ie until have a drink until you know for sure you're pg), just thinkng that maybe I could/should test on Saturday? Only concern is that it could still be too early? Does anyone have any thoughts?

Lilliana · 29/03/2012 07:22

Ohh I've always wanted a hammock - go for it Rusulka. Did they tell you at your scan where the placenta is? How early can you possibly feel a baby move? I thought it would be much later. Hope your not stressing too much about it. I feel nothing and am starting to think when I finally get my scan they are going to look and tell me there is nothing in there and I imagined it all.

Moo hope you got DH into bed tonight Grin. Are you still temping etc? How are they looking?

Alex there is no harm in testing on Sat, just be aware it's very early and will prob be negative even if you are pg. I personally wouldn't do an expensive one but if you have an internet cheapie I would use that on the off chance it might tell me something. Guess it depends on how getting a BFN would make you feel. - Sorry that was long and rambly and didn't say much!!!!

Parents in this pm to see what the children have been working on this term and then govenors so another late night. :( Had a lovely evening last night at my TA's retirement party but didn't get home till 10.45 (I'm in bed by 9.30 atm Blush) and am shattered this morning.

Have a good day all x

Rusulka · 29/03/2012 10:04

Moo eeEEeeeEEeeeeEEee! I hope you're jumping his bones like it's going out of fashion! (and don't forget to water the plants like I did!- bulbs are only coming up because we've started watering the garden, lol. Silly bint...)
We had a nice exotic seedling germinate but I went and bloody killed it- I gave it a poke to see if it really had sprouted or whether it was just a seed casing, and it promptly snapped off. Oops. Wish I could just keep my damn fingers away!

Lil a lot of the ladies on the September thread were feeling theirs move before 16 weeks- I'm nearly 18 (although NHS think 19, as scan 'is never wrong'. Bollocks!) My placenta's at the front though, so I won't feel anything for probably another month. Boo.
Why do schools always arrange late night crap at the end of term? Don't they know you're all exhausted? Still, 2 more days and it's Easter, whoop!

Alex as Lil said, there's no harm in testing, as long as it's a cheap one. You can get about 25 of them on Amazon for around a fiver. I used to use those to test every month, then when something did come up, I backed it up with a CBD. Much cheaper! Don't fret either way. I say go and enjoy yourself! Grin

Berries I am loving your experience with the 'doctor' lol! Bless his socks. Men haven't a clue about the female reproductive system. Presumably he's going on the info he got at school- remember- kissing with tongues can get a girl pregnant! Sex with condoms? Are you out of your mind!??!!? Lol.

Disco your country park sounds awesome. Wish we had one of those. We do have a prom and an outdoor gym though. It even managed to impress my dad, who used to bench press some serious stuff way back in the days before the Gulf War, etc. I expect when he's recovered fully he'll want to be down there having a go while the dog gets bored. What kind of dog is Jim? (awesome name, btw).

Today I feel no ills after swimming. MiL is somewhat swollen around the ankles, but then with all the flying she does, that's a common thing. I texted my dad before we went to say we were going, and he told me to try and drown her. He doesn't like her very much, lol!!!
Tonight we are going out for a meal en famille as it were- me and DH, his dad, sister and her fiance, and the MiL. Normally this would be an awesome evening out, but with the MiL there it makes it somewhat awkward. SiL and her fiance dislike her with a passion. Should be interesting!

Lilliana · 30/03/2012 07:19

Just popping in to say bye for the weekend, I'm off on the hen do and hoping I can keep things quiet - really don't want to say anything as don't know half the people. The hen knows as didn't want her to think I was putting a dampner on her weekend as a bit of nausea has started and a really good friend who I am sharing a room with. Fx all will go well.

Have a lovely weekend all, hope the weather holds

Rusulka · 30/03/2012 09:02

Have an awesome weekend Lil!

Meal was a disaster. MiL had a go at FiL over something SiL had voiced a concern over (but was a concern rather than a fact), leaving FiL rather bewildered and wondering what the fuck he'd done. Everyone was upset, and me and DH had to do smoothing, while SiL sorted out FiL which we couldn't do as we don't live there any more.

What a nightmare! She said she didn't mean to upset everybody, but she obviously went into the meal intending to broach the subject with FiL, and had half a bottle of wine to help her do it.

Don't think they'll be in the same room again for a while. Angry

In lighter news, I have to pop into town this morning to top up my bank account as I've spent too much on eBay and am inches away from being charged for going over a certain amount into my overdraft. Whoops!

Hope everyone's ok.

alexeliza · 30/03/2012 14:06

Stopping in to say hi before the weekend.

Lil, hope you have a fabulous weekend! FX the nausea stays away for you!

Rus - wow, I think your mil must know mine or something. They both seem so tactless! Sorry the meal went so disastrously. Your comment about your overdraft made me smile - that's one thing I know I'll have to be really careful about when it comes to buying!! Grin

Thinking about testing on Sunday (I'm decided on having a couple of drinks on Saturday evening - I don't drink much and when I do it's only a couple so have decided that even if this cycle is the one, it shouldn't do any harm) assuming AF doesn't get me in the meantime. It's 11DPO today and I had funny cramping yesterday, like something was pulling and pushing in my abdomen. Really weird. But I have cramping again today although (sorry - tmi!) not sure what it's actually for, as I seem to have been constantly needing to go to the toilet for the last few days, and have been constipated on and off. Really driving me nuts. I am keeping everything X that AF stays away though.

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend! x

festiemum · 30/03/2012 16:42

Ooh, fx alex - I had weird pulling and stuff before I got my bfp, so that sounds very positive!

Hope everyone else is ok. That you got your SWI in moo and it was gentle and lovely, and that you've recovered from your disasterous dinner rusulka - bloody families, eh?!

Enjoy your hen do, lil. Hope you're ok disco and berries - your young doc with the condom advice made me lol!

I am doing ok. Enjoyed a lot of sitting in the garden this week; the weather's been gorgeous here. Definitely feeling much better now I'm in the second trimester. Had a shock today though. Went off to the kids' school for their Easter assembly, and ds's teacher confided that she's due two weeks before me. She is a tiny, petite woman, and you would not tell in a million years that she is 16 weeks pregnant. I, on the other hand have a pronounced bump already!! I felt very Blush!

Hope you all have lovely weekends. Whether you're SWI, SWOI, ssing, testing or just hanging out! xxx

OP posts:
Rusulka · 31/03/2012 15:40

Festie I've been sitting in the garden all week too! Just can't bring myself to do the skirting boards when it's that lovely outside...
Fortunately it's well crappy today, so I can crack on with it. Boo!

MiL has been to stay with a friend overnight- she was supposed to be back today but has decided to stay til Monday, so really chuffed! Will surprise DH with it tonight, he'll be thrilled to have the rest of the weekend to ourselves. Grin

alexeliza · 01/04/2012 10:53

Well, AF got me this morning, so no need to test. Oh well.
There is a positive side to it I guess - this has been the first really "normal" cycle since coming off contraceptives and that everything seemed to work as it should (and the first time ever, of me producing EWCM). Cycle range seems to be around 29 days (LP 13 days) so it's given me more to work with now (I now have more of an idea as to when I should ov!).
So it's not all bad. DH still sounding in a positive frame of mind which is good. I find it hard, even if I am always the naturally optimistic one, to be always having to keep his positivity up as well!
Not entirely going to give up all the gadgetry - I still like the idea of temping just to be sure, but will otherwise try to relax a bit more and not obsess. And I'm very glad I did have a couple of glasses of wine last night rather than not! Grin.
It's sunny here this morning so DH and I are about to head out for a long walk. Hope everyone else is enjoying the weekend! x

MooleyWooleyShamaLamaDingDong · 02/04/2012 07:41

Morning ladies.

Hope everyone had a lovely weekend. Lil hope you had a nice break away from it all and that you were able to cope with not drinking and being surrounded by drunken hens :)

Has term finished now? In my job I work predominantly in the education sector, refurbing and building schools so i know that some have broken up for Easter but some don't finish until this week. Hope you are in the first category :)

Rusulka cor blimey - your posts do make me titter Grin sorry that FiL and MiL had a row over SiL (it really is like a sitcom!!) but hope that it all got/gets sorted. Also hope you plants are growing. I have been following your advice and watered like crazy over the last few days - worried now though that I might have waterlogged them; it's a tough job this self sufficient malarky!! They are starting to sprout though, which is good. My beetroot, cauliflower, onions and pumpkin are coming along nicely. Same can't be said for the tomatoes though, and usually they are the easiest of the lot. I even planted some more, but not a lot is happening.

Festie must be nice to have a bump buddy in RL (because I know it's awesome to have them on MN Grin) hope you are doing ok lovely!!

Berries sorry that the young doctor didn't quite get it. Hope that you are ok and being good to yourself.

Alex that damn hag. Glad you are feeling positive though and like you said, you can go into this cycle armed with much more information about what your body is up to. A 13 day LP is good as well :)

Disco how are things with you? Hope you are also being kind to yourself.

Chips what ho!?! Not seen you for a while. Hope all is well.

I have had a lovely, but not very productive, weekend. Was supposed to be packing, as we move on 14th April (was hoping for the 11th but the removal company are fully booked). We then have a team of cleaners coming in to overhaul the entire house, but they will not be able to come in until the 16th and we are away!! It's all been a bit comical!

Yesterday we thought we would take a drive out to Buxton. Breathtaking scenery and we visited the 2nd highest pub in the country. Lovely little place and really busy. Full of bikers and hitchhikers, it was great to people watch. Somehow though, I managed to lose most of the evening. Popped into Spar on the way home (after stopping into our local) to get some provisions. Got in and before I knew it, it was 8:00pm. DH picked a message up from the phone, which was my mum asking where we were. Dad had texted to tell me that mum had called but we were out (obviously) - although I am certain we were in. I think that mum called but the phone never rang out. Had a bit of set to when i called back almost 2 hours later. She was a bit annoyed at the fact I did not wonder why she had not called at 7 (she always calls around 7 on a Sunday). I assumed she might have been on the phone and that it was not really a major problem as I had spoken to her the day before. She then accused me of wanting her to call. Well i set her straight on that. I am 30 and I can't even go out for the day without it causing ructions.

She calls almost every other day - I don't mind all that much but most of the time we have nothing to say because we have updated each other on all goings on.

Aaaaaaaaah. Sorry for the rant. Needed to get that off my chest!!

Best get crack-er-lacking with work. Catch up later :)

Lilliana · 02/04/2012 10:08

Hi Everyone.

Had a fab weekend. We stayed in on the fri eve playing silly drinking games. The poor hen was sat next to me and was fab at deflecting all the penalty shots that came my way, I did try not to lose too often but she did end up rather more drunk because of me!

The second night we went out clubbing. Luckily for me (although I feel really sorry for her) one of the girls had a bad back and needed to go home early so I (gratefully) volunteered to take her home at midnight so everyone else could carry on into the wee hours.

Sunday we went to a spa which was lovely but very Envy that I couldn't use the steam rooms / saunas / hot tubs but they had a couple of lovely pools - one on the roof - which were gorgeous so no probs.

Now it's the first day of the holidays and I am officially doing nothing today Grin

Rusulka so sorry about the meal but at least you have had a few days breathing space. What have you been buying on ebay?

festie glad you are feeling better - I look very pg but it is all the food I have been eating, nothing to do with bean Blush Also don't you show quicker when it is your second? Maybe this is her first.

Alex sorry af got you. Glad your cycle seems to be settling down though - I would temp for a few months as you will build up a good picture of your 'average' cycle.

Moo sounds like you're going to be busy! My DH's mother is the same, always on the phone. Hope she has taken the hint and it hasn't caused too much upset.

Hi disco Berries chips and anyone else I missed, hope you are all ok x

Rusulka · 02/04/2012 13:20

Hey Moo!!! Ooh, excitement moving. Grin
Schools down here (Kent) have broken up already and go back on 16th. MiL goes to Germany on 10th. New bedstead arrives on 11th. Chopping up with axe and burning of divan commences shortly thereafter, methinks, mwa-ha-ha!!!
Plants doing ok, got a 90% germination success rate with some, which sounds ridiculous, especially as they are all climbers and I haven't got anywhere to bloody put them. Whoops.
Read somewhere that you shouldn't water plants in the garden too often as it encourages them to be lazy and not put out awesome roots for deeper water. So I've been not watering the garden, but spray-bottling my seedlings regularly. Tomatoes ok so far (ie, come up, lol) but petunias and lobelia seem to have bit the dust before I could even get them thinned out. Hanging baskets will be looking crap this year unless I try again or cheat!
DH has been super-excited seeing things like the nasturtiums and morning glory grow so quickly- the pumpkins are just starting to push up the mud in their pots- can't wait to see how batshit insanely quickly they grow once they get going! Grin
Also on the subject of your mum ringing- my dad rings every day DH isn't off, and we talk for about 3 hours on average, sometimes 5. We don't have any updates either, really, but it's amazing how much time we can just lose arguing about the best way to train plants up a wall, or discuss the best way to fit skirting boards, or listening to each other rant about MiL. (he can't stand her and thinks I'm mad for having her here!)

Lil glad you had a reasonably good weekend. If it makes you feel any better, steam rooms dry your skin out, and jacuzzis are full of bacteria. Swimming pool every time for me!

On the MiL front, the friend she flounced off to see for the weekend turns out to be the friend she went to just before her and FiL separated, so it sounds like she's a bit of Grimmer Wormtongue... Hmm.

Right, got to go iron a million of DH's shirts as MiL wasn't here to do it. GRUMP!

MooleyWooleyShamaLamaDingDong · 02/04/2012 14:57

Right ladies...........bit of a self-indulgent post coming up; so I apologise now Blush

I am a little concerned that I might have gotten an infection from my HSG last week, but it seems odd that the ?symptoms? are only materialising now. At first I thought I was feeling a bit off because we had a wee dram last night, but not enough for me to still be feeling this rough.

Basically I have mild to moderate cramping, on/off nausea and just a general feeling of unwell. I have also managed to drop my salad at lunch all over me, not just once, but twice (the second time whilst trying to clean it back up into the bowl. I lost the ability to form sentences at lunchtime, and then sent an email to a colleague about windows this afternoon with ?Doors? in the subject line rather then ?windows?.

Someone tell me I am not losing it Shock

festiemum · 02/04/2012 16:34

Hmm, just looked it up, and it does sound like you could have an infection moo. Are you feverish at all? If your temp is at all up, I think you should get yourself checked out. Can you get an emergency gp's appointment for this afternoon? xxxxxxx

OP posts:

Can I join? I've already been posting 'bout my lack of pant snot so I think I should qualify on that alone. I admit to temping once in a while...this is my defense:

  • no god damn pant snot
  • I'm nearing my sell-by-date and what with the (associated?) lack of pant snot I figure I need to shag as near to ov as possible.
  • there is no way on this earth I'm going around shagging on any old day just in case. Madness.

I'm CD 9 now, a women of short cycles, so due 17th- ish.

Super. So now I've written this problem solved right, I mean like I'm going to have a baby? Yes, thought so.
