BFP in 2012 Part 2 - step away from the COD and into this thread.

[WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid]

We filled the last one so I thought I would start no 2.

When, I liked the story till the end, we need a happier ending then that and definatly some comedy moments with the parents, could the dad find the pregnant test in the trash and think its his wife's?!?

Enceinte sounds beautiful. Much better than test de grossesse (I think pulled a funny face when she brought me the test).

My story in the film starts with positive opk in April (was trying to catch the first egg). Then af. Was really optimistic and naive, thought once I got the BFP it would all be plain sailing, I knew the theory on chem preg & mc but honestly didn't think it would happen to me.
I will be the one who actually seems to be really fertile in a sperm meets egg kind of way but can't get past 5 weeks (obviously this will all change on resipsas birthday )
My back story can be v sweet dh, house that needs renovating, a badly sleeping dd and working for a company that treats its staff like shit.

kitty that sounds like a good end to your story but I think I am going to give you twins (both girls).

In RL my FIL would know it was not MIL (hysterectomy) but for comedy value I think that's a great idea. The house in France can have a lake (has a pond) and someone can fall in.
Could be lots of comedy moments with FIL taking wine and cheese of MIL.

Well we definatly need a twins story, that goes without saying!
Maybe you could have given up on tests because of the cp's you think well what does a bfp mean anyway, I'd know if I was pregnant! When we all meet on resipia bday you cry I'm the only one who's not pregnant and we say well when will you test and you say when I feel pregnant, we will all look at each other then you and make you do a cb digi which instantly says 3+ and the closing shot is of your scan where 2 babies appear on the screen and you both look at each other with mouths open!

Oh no, I'm torn I love yours too!
Who else do we need to bring in??

We could have someone thinking a breakthrough bleed is her af, then she thinks she has a stomach bug.

Ooh I know when I go for my ultrasound re recurrent mcs they find I am pregnant. If only that we're possible.

Yes that's a good one, we definatly need a nerve wracking story and the person who's had heartache needs twins to make up for it!
Now are we all friends or is it like a story based on different women around England who are all TTC and their stories at exactly the same time. So heartache and lots of shagging, humour and sadness?

It could work as different people around England ttc at the same time. But in the film the cod is real (sort of). So when we are all having a shit time we meet in there with wine and chocs and have a face to face chat.

Morning! This film is sounding awesome so far, can I be producer/director? We could make it Babel-esque and have it based on different women who don't know each othr but who's lives are connected in tiny but significant ways.....

Ok, catch up time....

when don't be daft you weren't prying at all it's fine - I brought it up! And yes I know I should really let it go now - it's been over 5 years now and xDH is happily remarried with 2 babies so yes it did all work out for the best in the end.

swimming/res and everyone else with the lovely comments/prayers etc - thank you . You could well have a point about karma being wielded as some sort of guilt-tripping weapon.

red ouch, sounds painful! It's a bit early for testing still though right? So all you can do is grit your teeth and stick it out a few more days before you'll know for sure.....

fatas :( gutted, sorry AF showed up for you, hope it buggers off quickly

kiwi happy shopping!

Did I cover everything?!

Oww yes definatly so like the cod is mn where we meet to discuss online and anonomusly are stories!!
The film could be called mums net

We are all wasted in our current jobs! In all seriousness, I would pay to see this film (esp the bits with DH's foot in the toilet and with when/DH and the twins on scan when going thru tests or at the end).

I know!!
There is the film what to expect but that's about different people who are allready pregnant, I'm not sure there's one illustrating the TTC madness!

My catch up time too....

red I get boobs like that pre-AF and I try to take it as a good sign that my body wouldn't show such obvious symptoms unless all my hormones were working (easier said than done). I think stairs should be banned - one boob in each hand is not a good look....

kitten this is for you

fatas likewise sorry AF showed up

Minutes are crawling.....

And BANG!, just like that, my good mood disappears. Just overheard one colleague on the phone to another (who used to sit next to me before I had DD but moved to another city) who I knew was preg but no other details. Turns out she's due in 8 weeks, the week I would have been having DC2 but for m/c.
Gawd, will this ever go?
Sorry to bring down happy thread but if I don't share, I might cry at work and that's a no-no!

Sorry resipsa, that's really crap.

I am loving the film ideas!

I don't generally have much to say on here so just tend to lurk, but I have an awesome porn name... ...

Tiggy Dick!
Yes, my mother's maiden name really is Dick

Oh res it's shit isn't it. I'm :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:( for you. Here, have some too, they won't help but at you'll know someone's thinking of how you're feeling.

I stumbled across this thread whilst browsing yesterday. I don't know if it might be helpful (or not) to you ladies who have suffered mc/cp, but there are some lovely lovely stories on there, and some quite interesting thoughts on souls, and children being "meant" for us at particular times. If you're feeling delicate maybe leave it till later to have a read.

swimming thank you :)

chimpette you win the gold star for most porn star like porn star name! :o

Oh resipsa, dont torture yourself, I know how horrible it is but it's her journey and the only way I can think about us is that they will have their own dramas at different points in their lives we cannot know what's around the corner, when I was TTC first time it was when lily Allen, Kelly brook and Amanda Holden were all pg before me but then each one of them lost their babies really late and I actually ended with my baby first, turn it back and Lilly is now pg with her second before I am again! I guess what I'm trying to say is these things do happen for reasons we don't know but at the same time they turn just as easily, when you are pg there will be a time when someone wants to cry because they see your bump or here your due date and we come full circle! Your bubs will come and be all the more special and you will look back and for some reason apreciate they came when they did

Thanks swimming I will bear that in mind. Lol no one boob in each hand is def a very silly look. DH says hes never seen them so big :) I am trying to keep thinking that I might get a BFP but a little annoyingly sensible voice in my head keeps saying its not going to happen this month. I have no other symptoms. No twinges.

But at the same time I don't feel very-PMS. Normally I am angry, irritated, grumpy before AF is due. But this time nothing. I will have to wait and see....yes the seconds are crawling so slowly.

res big hug - sorry mate :(

Chimp well worth de lurking for!

Thanks everyone - LOVE this thread for these very moments.

And chimp wins the gold medal. A RL LOL moment here. Your poor bloody mother!

Mind now totally wiped of all sad thoughts and replaced with . This will totally out me if you work in my office. Was chatting to someone who made me laugh and my habit is to put my head down when laughing. Sadly, I failed to see the metal partition as I bent down and proceeded to whack my face on it! Everyone heard it. Lots of standing uo and staring all around. Mortified, not least by the bleeding gums.
I need today to end soon!

me me me! can I be in the film!?

Talking of film-like lives, how is this for one? I used to go on Babycentre (before I discovered here :)) and one lady was proper neurotic about TTC ?not like us at all?. She used to tell us the proper trials and tribulations of her life, she'd had three miscarriages and how her boyf would want a baby one day and the next day he wouldn't. Anyway after a few months she got pregnant and one the day she got preg, her boyf told he'd been cheating on her so they split up!

She then had bleeding and thought she was losing her much-wanted baby. Docs booked her in for an early scan and it showed TWO sacs! She was having twins!

I think she had more bleeding so she back to the hospital for her for another scan? Nurse turns to her and said she had bleeding around the sacs but all ok :) Now for the shocking news ? one sac had 2 babies in it (so twins) and the other sac had a heartbeat too! It's TRIPLETS!!!!!!!

Can you believe it?!

Yay, I get gold!

I've been chewing over the Karma thing; to my mind it's not so much a Universal Law which states that if you do bad things then bad things will happen to you. I think of it more like states of mind rather than events. If I do something bad my conscience will let me know and I'll feel guilt and remorse. It doesn't necessarily mean that I should expect bad events to happen sometime in the future. Besides, events are only good or bad according to the meaning we give to them (according to cognitive psychology anyway).

Kitten - 5 years of feeling bad about events in the past is one heck of a punishment! If it helps, perhaps you could view that as the 'bad Karma' catching up with you? It's like carrying around a really heavy and awkward parcel for all that time, and it's made you tired and given you lots of aches. If you can put it down, you'll feel better and you won't have to dread the future discomfort.

This is of course only my view of Karma; please do tell me to piss off if it's not welcome! It just makes me sad to think of people punishing themselves.

Oh, res, your last two posts made me feel very sad for you and then actually laugh out loud at your expense! I hope that the clumsiness has broken the sad news.

And chimp is indeed on the top of the podium.
