Beetle hoping to join you soon! Hope you are doing ok x

tametortie · 25/04/2014 08:24

Beetle- hope you are doing ok?? Update us

tametortie · 25/04/2014 08:27

Pissing phone!!!

Update us please! Smile

Val- can we have a line pic today please?

Cupcake- I started ttc at 25/26 and I'm 33 now Sad should have had at least 10 kids by now....

I feel calmer today Smile

BeetlingAbout · 25/04/2014 10:04

Let the calmness be long lived, tame. Those embies of yours are snuggled up like two sesame seeds in a jam sandwich. Just think back to when you were pregnant with your DD and how these things probably never crossed your mind, and everything was just fine wasn't it?
It's so natural to worry tho, it's the only part of this process we have control over!

cups, there is a cupcake with your name on and a virgin mojito on the grads thread ready and waiting Smile

My phone is playing up so sorry this is short. Hi to everyone and hope all are well considering.

I'm doing Ok. I had a big red bleed wednesday last week. Bean was Ok but I have blood clots around the sac. It's a wait and see situation. It's just been brown bleeding since and am having a scan next week. Assuming all is Ok I am provisionally booked for a cervical stitch in May, I'm unsure about it but it's a long story that I'll save for the preggo chat.... feels wrong to moan about it here. X

tametortie · 25/04/2014 10:07

Beetle- after all you have been through, moan away!! You have supported us all so much xx

vallinnapod · 25/04/2014 11:29

Tame - just for you. I know it is more fun to metal over lines but it is nice seeing it in words too.... Cups I am 'fine' but I am of course stressing that the line is getting no darker/my boobs have stopped aching/I don't feel sick or heartburny today Sad and I know this stress is never ending...

As for you...please try not to worry. Lifting the cage will have done nothing to the embryos!! I love the jam analogy...you are less than a week away from OTD....just think how far you have come! (I realise I am a COMPLETE hypocrite Grin)

Enjoy the wedding Bears

Beetle I'll come find you...

PS - I am a spring chicken at 32 Wink (33 next month but in denial) Had DS at 30

Lots of love to everyone

vallinnapod · 25/04/2014 11:30

Fuck, forgot the picture....

Morning my lovelies xxx

Today is my DDs 11th birthday and I have been woken at 2am and 5am to open presents. Brew and sympathy please Smile

I have also been woken by some strange pains in my tummy- stabby twinges. I had low back ache yesterday as well. So now I'm thinking I'm probably gearing up for a period but the stabby pain was really odd.

Then I dreamt I did a pregnancy test and it was positive and I've woken up full of hope!

So a really weird night that has made me feel really funny.

I'm praying so hard that this works and someone just gives us a break....

How are we all anyway??? Any weekend plans???

Xxxxx

starsandmoonandback · 26/04/2014 09:24

Morning!

Tame, isn't it perfect timing for implantation? Stabby twingey pains for this Smile happy birthday to your DD xx

BeetlingAbout · 26/04/2014 09:25

Tame BrewBrew Brew (builders tea)

I had sharp stabby pains a few days after my transfer this time and got a bfp, i also had it with the twins. I think it must have been implantation. Especially if it's not one of your usual period symptoms. Fingers crossed xx

tametortie · 26/04/2014 09:36

Oh beetle- I hope so. It's a very weird pain, almost like a low stitch.

My friend came round last night and was such a sweetie. We have decided that if I do need to go back for my frosties we will make a girly weekend of it near Christmas. Grin great to think positive but a plan b always makes me feel less pressured.

I hope these pains are good news

tametortie · 26/04/2014 09:37

Oh and beetle- I only drink the weakest weakest pissy tea!!! Grin

nobeer · 26/04/2014 09:44

tame I reckon implantation too. I've got everything crossed for you!

vallinnapod · 26/04/2014 09:47

Tame that all sounds really positive! Everything crossed. And a huge happy birthday to your DD xx

tametortie · 26/04/2014 09:52

Really??? You aren't just saying that??

Oh god, I daren't even hope Sad

The stabby pain is still there now.

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 26/04/2014 10:08

Val great news on the test yesterday Grin

Beetle please feel free to talk to about any pregnancy worries. I really want to keep hearing about all you lovely graduates. I really hope everything is going ok with mini beetle xx

Tame sounds like implantation to me! Your friend sounds lovely, what a fantastic back up plan. Fingers crossed you won't need it until you decide to go for DC3 Wink

Res I got my letter through yesterday moving my nhs funding for my 3rd cycle to care. I also got cares massive application pack through. I'm still doing this cycle at st marys. So I'll be quizzing you on care in a few months if I don't get a BFP. What date is ET again? I've got the 30th in my head.

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 26/04/2014 10:10

Happy birthday to your DD Tame Thanks

BeetlingAbout · 26/04/2014 18:25

Gnats-pee-tea, Tame!?

I hope your DD has had a lovely birthday so far. Cake

starsandmoonandback · 26/04/2014 19:34

Beetle, hi! I agree....please feel you can talk about things you are going through in here, we all are here to support you and I for one don't mind pregnancy talk from you or any of the other buddies. We all know how hard it is to struggle through and with experience I learnt it's not as easy as getting a bfp and that is the end of the worry! Hope you are doing ok? X

starsandmoonandback · 27/04/2014 08:05

Morning everyone Smile
How are you all?
Res is transfer tomorrow?

tametortie · 27/04/2014 11:09

Morning stars Smile

I think res is transferring on Tuesday x

I am sooooo on edge here. Desperate to POAS but...

  1. It's too early
  2. It will be negative because of 1 OR because it hasn't worked and I will be upset.
  3. It's quite nice to hold off and stay in the bubble
  4. I'm insanely scared. Insanely.

DH is cross that I am discussing when to test already and has said I'm not to until THURSDAY.

I feel horrid Sad

I'm going to take DD to spend her birthday money today to take my mind off things. Only problem is that the retail park has a boots and I just know I'm going to crack....

Please convince me that I don't need to know!!!!

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 27/04/2014 11:26

Morning Stars Smile how are you doing? I'm starting to feel nervous/excited. I'm hoping AF will be here a week today.

Tame DONT DO IT!!! It's too early, whether it's a BFP or BFN your still going to mental either way. You know that. I feel like a complete hypocrite as I cracked and tested early. I know this part of the wait is agony, just try to hold on a little bit longer x
