YES!

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 05/12/2012 13:16

had a cry last night and this morning

Bloody hormones!!! Xmas Blush

Off to make a cuppa Brew anyone want to join me??!!! Grin promise I won't cry very much

andadietcoke · 05/12/2012 14:07

I can't stop crying

I've decided my Aunt Flo is a vindictive bitch who is punishing me for eagerly awaiting her arrival.

I promise not to complain again because despite it all I'm very grateful things are getting back to normal and I can TTC again this month but I am having a nightmare day. Think I'm bleeding more than with the mc, have been in agony, and have had to buy new knickers, tights, skirt and maternity pads at lunchtime. Drugged up to the eyeballs and poor (only shop with something suitable in the little Cheshire town I work in was Laura Ashley). Argh.

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 05/12/2012 14:26

Oh dietcoke - I'm sorry. and complain all u like - coz sometimes you've just got to coz it makes u feel better!!! And it's there's a lot of people here that can understand. So sorry about ur mc. Sad
Big Hugs all round this week I think. And AF is a vindictive bitch!! I'm waiting for the cowbag to arrive.

Which'll be lovely, seeing pregnant friends all through the next week so I'm gonna have to toughen up and cry when I get home

Blockette · 05/12/2012 15:29

Oh no! I think the holidays make it worse. We will be strong! And as you said coke now you can TTC again - you can start timing things easier now. Although having to go to Laura Ashley is worth the tears on its own!

Best way to deal with pregnant friends is to have a nice big glass of wine in front of them, along with some lovely sushi, then bend down to do your shoes up while smirking the whole time! Xmas Wink
And when you feel tearful go upstairs and lie belly-down on your bed, and get your DP to bring you blue cheese on toast!

DH has already started on a game plan for this month, apparently I have to come home from my work Christmas party (its in London, I live in Cardiff!!) instead of staying there, then he's going to get me drunk and we'll DTD - He said this is a sure fire way to make sure your pregnant! Xmas Wink

Blockette · 07/12/2012 22:49

FX for you tomorrow Raspberrys!

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 08/12/2012 08:52

Did a test this morning, negative.

But no AF yet - it's all a waiting game isn't it?!

Now to go and make my house immaculate and eat loads of chocolate and get ready for friend of dh who only comes round when they want advice about their ds. As a childcarer there's nothing more I want than to talk "work" at the weekend while all other conversations are to dh while he ignores ds coz raspberries knows what she's doing

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 08/12/2012 08:53

Just seen ur post block thanku for thinking of me. Thanks

How are u?

Boozeandadietjinglebell · 08/12/2012 10:29

When's AF due Raspberrys? I didn't get a BFP early last time. Wait it out, and try to resist POAS again or it'll drive you mad.

Smile87 · 08/12/2012 11:08

Completely know how you feel. This year my sister had my gorgeous nephew, my best friend had my godson. Yesterday my cousin had her baby. And my maid of honour had her baby girl this morning Hmm. But today I'm going to eat a big bit of Brie and Pâté and go buy myself some nice underwear :)

Boozeandadietjinglebell · 08/12/2012 11:19

Smile don't forget the sushi Wink

Smile87 · 08/12/2012 12:57

Thank you adding that too the list :)

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 08/12/2012 13:53

Hi booze

It's day 30, AF has been appearing anywhere from day 30 to day 34. I won't poas until day 35 now.

Another waiting game Xmas Hmm but I've already driven myself mad so a few more days of being a TTC nutjob won't do anymore harm!! Xmas Grin

Blockette · 08/12/2012 19:58

Ohh Raspberrys I'm sorry :( but it's not over till AF visits! :) maybe your BFP is just shy ;)

fl0b0t · 09/12/2012 17:26

Erg- not due for 10 days and have officially the sorest boobs in the history of the world possibly exaggerating, and felt really ropey this morning and couldn't face my cup of tea. Great, phantom preg symptoms to raise my hopes! Confused

Blockette · 09/12/2012 21:17

Ohh that sounds interesting fl0b0t! Fx!!!

Boozeandadietjinglebell · 09/12/2012 21:23

Ooh Fl0 definitely sounds promising. You get 1,000 TTC SS points for sore boobs that far out from AF. Yay! (Fx)

fl0b0t · 09/12/2012 22:10

Cheers all, seems so early to be pms but my cycle isn't totally regular.... Fx here too for raspberrys too!

Blockette · 10/12/2012 20:44

Any news Raspberrys? Anyone else got anything exciting happening?

So far the thread is still focusing on Fl0's boobs! Xmas Grin

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 11/12/2012 09:11

Well, I'm out.

That fucking bitch I'm not bitter I promise AF arrived in the middle of the night. That'll teach me for getting my hopes up Sad holding it together for now till I get home & then I'll cry

How's ur boobs flo??!!

fl0b0t · 11/12/2012 09:15

Haha, I've never had so much attention on my boobs.... well there was this one time.... haha!

Still mighty tender all around the sides, but no other symptons at all. I am going to thee dr this morning for something else and might mention it.

Got me all paranoid reading mumsnet stuff in the bath the other night as I didn't realise that you still can have a light period if you're pregnant. I tested a bit early last month, got a negative and then had a very light period.... ? :-S

Blockette · 11/12/2012 09:45

ohh Raspberrys I'm so sorry :( but you can enjoy yourself over Christmas now, without having to hide the fact you're not drinking ;) - here have a mince pie, and a small mountain of chocolate :( - Here's too 2013! Xmas Grin

Well Fl0 I think you're our last 2012 hope. If you think that last AF was really light, you could always POAS ;)

  • Good luck with your appointment! Hope those boobs stay tender! Xmas Wink
Boozeandadietjinglebell · 11/12/2012 10:18

Raspberrys I'm sorry. Buy a bottle of wine at lunchtime and sit and drink it and be smug later, maybe with some nice pâté and gooey cheese. It might help a little bit...

Fl0 definitely mention it, you never know...

I could technically POAS in 2012 - AF due on 1/1/13, but will be in America and I go on Boxing Day, so probably a little bit too early before I go. Will see how SS goes I think.

fl0b0t · 11/12/2012 10:25

raspberry that's crappy, but yes, enjoy wine and cheese for me as I'm desperately avoiding with 4 parties to go to this weekend! It's going to be damn impossivle.

Booze can you wait until you get to america? I will POAS when I get to my christmas destination as I want to be with my DH when I do it!

Blockette · 11/12/2012 12:34

ahh booze you're the day before me!

I guess I could, if I get really bad symptoms and am going crazy - but if I got a negative I wouldn't fully believe it, so would waste another test a few days later, so unless I'm really convinced then there is no point really.

Fx'ed for new year +ve's all around!
