What did we all do before coming on here?

KickTheGuru · 16/07/2012 15:24

Yeh it's long and involved but basically, my DH accidentally paid the rent into estate agent #1's account and estate agent #2 has taken over the management of the property. Simple right? Just ring #1 and tell them it was a mistake and can they just transfer the month - since they all work for the same landlord.

Nope - #1 has said he's not received anything from us - we have proof of payments FFS! And the fact that the full amount has gone out of my DHs account. I mean - it's a bit OTT to lie about that since all we need is a proof from his bank and you'll see it there, clear as day!

They're dodgy thought. Our deposit is sitting in their bank account. Not even in a deposit scheme account!

Grrrrrr.

Good afternoon all.
Wow. This is still a fast moving thread. Iv got pages 2 catch up on. But I saw af has got a few of us and some bfn's. Sorry 4 u all.

@Winkle. Glad your off 2 drs. It really isn'ta bad thing. Your body needs taking in hand. U must of had an anovulatory cycle. The opk will pick up the surge but not tell u when the egg pops. They'll take some blood and c how your hormones r. Don't worry. Let us know how u get on.

Sounding good red and kitty.

I'm 13dPo. If af was gonna come it wouldn't b til sat. But I mite Poas in the morn, actually shitting myself about it and don't know why.

@kick. u seem 2b really picking up, going 4 a run will have done u the world of good. It Does r head in when u can't go.

kittykatsforever · 16/07/2012 15:27

Newbie that's sounds very suspiciously like you ARE pregnant!! Anxiously waiting your result tonight!
Aussie love your once a week essays Wink
In regards to poas and symptoms I will play devils advocate, a very good friend of mind had dd then before she got sorted on contraception dtd before af had returned, she started fealing sick and thought oh god I better check in not pg again and bought a 2 pack ( because as I've pointed out, you know it makes sence!) she did one and neg then a few days later felt sick again, another neg test although she did say she thought as she left it on the side all night there was a faint line the next morning but so so faint she dismissed it, a few months later getting iller her mum told her to test and she said no I did a test it was neg but she agreed as was getting worried as what was wrong with her and low and behold she was and 12 wks almost by this point! So a definate neg with pg symptoms!

redstrawberry · 16/07/2012 15:38

FX for you RIBS I think i have developed a POAS phobia since the BFNs, too scared to see the -ve and feel like I have just been kicked or punched.

Kick can you involve the police if it gets worse? And yes do get the proof from his bank too. I can't believe in this day and estate agent 1 thinks he can get away with it!

KickTheGuru · 16/07/2012 15:55

I have given them a deadline of tonight to confirm that my money is in their bank otherwise am going to the police to open a charge against them...

POAS man! No point torturing yourself!

If there is hcg, it will show up!

redstrawberry · 16/07/2012 15:58

I shall wait till 14dpo before I succumb Grin rather have the torture than see a BFN.

KickTheGuru · 16/07/2012 16:00

Oh yeh wait a bit for sure

Remember the logic!

Just a bit.

For your sanity!!! :)

KickTheGuru · 16/07/2012 16:14

Chatting to my DH and we're fairly certain that I didn't even ovulate this month. So at least there isn't nothing lost this month then - wouldn't have fallen pregnant anyway

Newbie2 · 16/07/2012 16:24

Kitty loving your story! I would love love love to find BFP 12 weeks pregnant! Imagine all the worrying that you'd skip! Uh I know I'm setting myself for a fall but we will see... in 3hrs

Kick I imagine it feels better to know that you haven't missed out!

RIBS · 16/07/2012 16:25

I know what you mean red. This will b 19 months. Sick 2 death of it. Early on and when I started on the clomid I was convinced I was pg every cycle, as rare as they were, some at 92 days long. It's heart breaking.
Thing is I ,kNOW I don't get symptoms until 6 wks. So I'm just torturing myself, so I more or less stopped. But I felt an implantation flutter at 5 dPo and have had headaches ever since. I don't get them.

So in the back of my mind I'm thinking well maybe? But don't know if I can bear the disappointment again. And I haven't seen any magpie's. C previous discussions on stupid superstitious nonsense.

Newbie2 · 16/07/2012 16:30

Ribs maybe it's a good sign that you haven't seen any magpies!

redstrawberry · 16/07/2012 16:35

I am a teeny weeny tiny bit superstitious too....which is why no POAS allowed till AF due. I feel I might jinx the luck if I pee any earlier - stupid i know. but that stupid phrase all good things come to those who wait keeps ringing in my ears everytime i get tempted.

RIBS you really deserve a BFP - you have waited long enough x

Ooh, just marking my place to see how winkle got on at the drs, and to see how newbie gets on at home tonight.

KickTheGuru · 16/07/2012 16:50

Yeh am thinking about winkle too...

ribs fingers crossed for you mate. It's time now. How long have you been on the Clomid for? Do they leave you for another year on the clomid?

I'm the one poking my boobs in the office today Hmm I don't think I've ever had sore boobs before TTC journey began lol

winkle2 · 16/07/2012 17:50

So we're officially in the hands of the fertility docs now. Need to have bloods done etc. he couldn't explain why I hadn't had my period.

I said how am i supposed to know what day 21 is if no period?! He said wait for period and if it hasn't arrived in 2 weeks, book appointment and go anyway.

So that monitor was a waste of £100 hey!!

winkle2 · 16/07/2012 17:51

Day 21 refers to the 21 day blood test he wants me to have to check if I'm ovulating. Sorry if unclear.

NicolaHazel · 16/07/2012 17:57

Goodness...you lot don't half talk a lot when I'm too busy at work to join in!

Hi to Laura and any other new ladies :-)

Newbie...POAS for the love of god!

And Aussie, yes, pretty much. First 12 weeks was 15 mins on the cross trainer on a week day, 90 mins on a Sat (2 x 45 with 5 minute rest) and a fast 7 mile walk followed by 60 mins on the cross trainer (2 x 30). With no changes to my diet apart from reducing alcohol. I lost 1 stone doing that.

Then the next 5 weeks, H2B (though he was just DP then!) was working in France, so I signed up to My Fitness Pal and logged calorie intake, as well as upping the Saturday cross trainer to 2 hours (2 x 60). By keeping net intake to about 1250 calories per day, I lost the remaining stone really quickly!

Very hard work and sheet bloody mindedness sorted me out! And now I go for more controlled portions of carnal, drink a little more (but try to stick to vodka) and have the occasional treat, and it has stayed off, thankfully. I barely exercise now either.

NicolaHazel · 16/07/2012 17:58

Holy shit!!

Carnal should read carbs!!

winkle2 · 16/07/2012 18:37

Controlled carnal won't get you pregnant!

NicolaHazel · 16/07/2012 18:42

No, I know :-)

Awesome smart phone correction!

KickTheGuru · 16/07/2012 18:44

I hate autocorrect.

RIBS · 16/07/2012 19:17

@winkle. At least they are looking at it. It's the waiting that's the worst, believe me! The monitor will prob come in handy. Once they've done blood tests 2 determine why your periods have gone awol and your bodys behaving ul certainly want 5 know when your ovulating

@kick. No only 8 m on clomid. Most consultants say 6m max. Iv got 2 more goes. Then back 2 ridiculous cycles.

@newbie. Hope you don't have an audience whilst boob poking! Lol.
