Oh lordy and Somesort I am so sorry for your losses. CPs are so horrible - to be so happy about bfp then to have it snatched away. The stats are a comfort in a way but it still sucks. I would also recommend the ladies over on the ttc after an mc thread - they're brilliant - and also getting lots of IRL support and doing things non-ttc related can help. Thoughts are with you both [hugs]

Genni....sunbathing and MrsE we're complaining about itching when they were first pregnant!!!! Symptom for sureGrin

angelaham · 21/10/2014 20:17

So sorry to hear of your sad news Ohlordy and Some sort, so horrible to have your hopes dashed but hoping next time will be better

spinningirl10 · 21/10/2014 20:18

Dozy, hope you get your +opk soon.

Treacle, I had restless legs when I was pregnant, they drove me mad......hmmm not got them now though.

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 21/10/2014 20:18

ohlordy and biscuit so sorry Thanks

furtivefeline · 21/10/2014 20:23

ohlordy and biscuit I'm really sorry. It's just so unfair.

Treaclepie19 · 21/10/2014 20:44

Ok between moaning every 2 seconds about a pain full nipple and having to jump off the sofa every few minutes with leg cramps and on top of that being out of breath when I sit back down. DH has decided something is definitely going on :p

Biscuit and ohlordy I am so sorry for ur loses. Please rest and take the time u guys need.

Good luck 2mo those testing

Sunbathing how u get on with scan?

Horrid time this end all work related. I've hated job for a while now, and now with a demerger and mass unrest it's worse. I am dealing with some real bullies right now which sucks and is making me sad. Good old hubbie has been amazing and I'm going to try and stick it till Xmas hope I get a bfp b4 that and if I can't cope resign then.

I'm praying for a bfp this month but not to hopeful. I did all the right things but I guess it just might not be. Cd25 going to wait till 14 days from cbfm peak to test if af doesn't get me first. Have abandoned netball tonight Just in case. Did jump about in gym today but figure that's got to b ok. Sorry such a sad thread tonight.

Treaclepie19 · 21/10/2014 21:37

Hehe, I shall be testing at 6.45 after taking my temp :)

Sorry af arrived gem :(

Sorry things are difficult at work katy :(

Hugs Katybear you have my sympathy, I absolutely hated my job before my last pregnancy (still there but things have improved a little bit) and I only stayed for the mat leave. When I got my bfp the first thing I did was work out how many weeks of work I had left. It was worth it in the end.

Katybear123 · 21/10/2014 21:48

Thanks treacle and purple giraffe. I wish it didn't make me so sad and stressed I know it's the worst thing for ttc!!! Great just what I need a head wind for ttc!!

Purple will 100% count the weeks as soon as get bfp. I know 32 wks is the earliest I can go!!! The beauty of working in hr.

Cariad2014 · 21/10/2014 21:51

Sorry you're having such a rubbish time at work Katy - big hugs. As someone who loves to plan, the thing I've found the hardest about ttc is the unpredictability of it all. When we first embarked on this journey, I was convinced I'd be on mat leave by the Spring of 2015 at the latest. 1 cp and an ectopic later (with March and May 2015 EDDs respectively) and I think I'll be lucky if I get to go on mat leave before 2015 is out! All of this makes making decisions about work so very difficult. That having been said, if work is really getting you down and you could cope financially without an enhanced mat leave package, I think looking elsewhere is a sensible move. My friend who was in a similar boat got her BFP the month she quit her job.

Cariad2014 · 21/10/2014 21:58

P.s. Katy - I really hope you get your BFP this month, and as Purple says, you'll shortly get to start counting down the weeks until your mat leave.

Plus you don't need to be at all companies for ages to get the maternity package, you don't at mine so it might be worth exploring your options if you are really unhappy.

MademoiselleG · 21/10/2014 22:20

Hello all! A few names I recognise here. Very sorry for the bad news today.
Well, my cycle seems to be doing something normal this month, at long flipping last, so I'm hopeful and joining this bus if I may!
Took soy last month and whilst I didn't get a bfp, my cycle was exactly 28 days and I finally had a period, after a post TFMR cycle of nearly 2 months. Not taken any this month, mainly because I forgot! Poas, cbfm, temping and FF addict though, don't you worry.

Stats: ttc #2 but 3rd pregnancy, 1 dd nearly 3, 1 TFMR July 2014, BFP due 7th November

Treacle, eeeek! Fx for you Smile

MrsExtraOrdinary · 21/10/2014 22:26

Sleep well those members of the poas party! Wishing you all to wake up with a bfp!

Treaclepie19 · 21/10/2014 22:28

Hi mademoiselle :)

Eek, I'm off to bed. I so hope it's a bfp tomortomorrow for all in the poas party! :) Thank you to the well wishers!
Night all x

Oh lady's I'm so sorry to hear of your cp. Your time will come my grandma used to. Say we suffer loss and pain so we can truly feel the love and enjoyment. I know it's not a comfort for all but helped me. I'm currently on day 29 6days po. I had blood tests for ovulation yesterday so waiting g on the results, I don't really know what happens next if I'm honest my doctors are a bit lapsy had thyroid checks etc although wouldn't give me my results just kept saying there fine! All my siblings have either over active or under. Over Bering the boys. My eldest sister has graves. Disease and has had similar problems and symptoms to me ! My periods have settles abut now they were every 14 day's tho I was told this was normal. When I have been ovu it's Bseen 2 or 3 days before period starts or just after its finished either way I feel. ( not sure if in right) that my body wouldn't be able to sustain it spesh so close to when period due! I dunno ok just keep hassling! Although I'm in process of moving doctors. good luck to all testing timmrow I'm blowing u all some sticky dust and double sided tape xxxx

gennibugs · 22/10/2014 06:01

Morning all.

Off up north so on a very early train. Bleurgh I'm shattered. My temp took a big dip this morning, so it's either late implantation or AF. Cramps suggest it's AF.

I am waiting impatiently for the party goers to check in Grin FX for you all!!!!!
