Sparko! DO. NOT. LEAVE! You are my AI partner in spunk crime!

Mummy, I got done for drink driving twice. Bloody shameful. I'll bet your DP is thrilled to be back behind the wheel. When they take away your licence it feels like the worst kind of liberty has been snatched.

juneybean · 24/02/2015 18:23

Whoops sorry had to go look after other people's children!

I didn't think you were patronising purdita that's exactly how I feel haha a mixture between being negative that it'll never work but getting twinges....

I'm testing every day eskimo but I don't tell purds Wink

He nearly lost his job over it, was very lucky to keep it. He had it reduced to 18 months on completion of the course but at 18 months he failed his medical due to still a high dependence on alcohol and his blood test showed long term alcohol misuse. It was the kick he needed. 4 months off the sauce and he passed in December, only just got it back though! He is chuffed to bits. Grin as an I!

Sparkly123 · 24/02/2015 19:16

Ha ha mummy I'm not going.. It's just hard to keep up with march too! I'll nip over when Feb is over! Great news re the dh!!

Sammy twirl bites!!!! Jealous!!!

Sparkly123 · 24/02/2015 19:17

Purds I'm Obvs not leaving!!!! I'm staying here to see you lot get your BFPs! I've not even started my AI yet this cycle so I'm not due to be there yet!

eskimolaura · 24/02/2015 19:30

Having a wibble girls, sorry. It's CD33. What if I never have a period and I can't join the March bus and I get left behind in limbo, in some grey area that isn't a BFP, but isn't AF either?

I don't want to be left in the grey area... Sad

loopylou1984 · 24/02/2015 19:30

8dpo and proper af like pains this evening Hmm

AND just watched hollyoaks and a 14 year old is preggo after only 1 time!

It is not a good evening!

loopylou1984 · 24/02/2015 19:33

Oh Laura, hugs to you.
Fx af arrives ASAP.... But 33 days isn't unusual is it? I've had a couple of 33 day cycles in my time. Xx

eskimolaura · 24/02/2015 19:38

Sammy trouble is, I don't know what's usual and what isn't! Haven't had a real period since coming off the pill in November. Thank you, though- I need the reassurance that I'm still in the 'normal' range and just worrying unnecessarily. Sorry for the AF like pains- I had them this time last week. Could it, might it, be a sign of implantation for you?

PurdeyBirdie · 24/02/2015 19:48

Oh, Sammy, I forgot to say how droolsome those Twirl bites are! I didn't know they even existed Shock

Mummy, what a turnaround. Is he completely teetotal now? How amazing.

I've just returned from Chorley Town Hall lost property department. My period isn't there Hmm

PurdeyBirdie · 24/02/2015 19:54

Eskimo! Oh I wish there was summat I could do to make things easier for you. Please join the March bus with me when my period arrives tomorrow If you don't bleed in the next two days I honestly would go to the doctor's. How does your chart look?

loopylou1984 · 24/02/2015 20:01

I doubt it Laura, after 15 months of this feeling meaning af was coming in the next week I wouldn't have thought this lot of cramps would be any different.

It's a happy thought though, I suppose there's always a chance. Xx

loopylou1984 · 24/02/2015 20:02

Purdey - lol at the lost property! Xx

eskimolaura · 24/02/2015 20:04

Purdey- this month was our first month TTC and I have no chart! Damn it. I knew nothing about charting until I joined this thread. Should I start now? I have a thermometer, but I don't know how to use it! I will definitely join the March bus, but don't want to bring everyone down bemoaning my lack of menstrual juices...

I will lurk like a strange weirdo sit quietly and watch you all from afar.

Sparkly123 · 24/02/2015 20:05

eskimo sorry it's such a waiting game for you. What a long time between coming off pill and an AF. I would maybe get to the gp soon if no sign..Flowers

Football on tv.. Yawn.. I'm on naturesown.co.uk looking at folic acid etc.. Ha ha! 3 for 2 just now!

Purds you didn't know about twirl bites?!? Whaaaaaat?!

Sammy sorry you are in so much pain. That Peri is a nuisance! Prefers after one shot! Little TimTam Obvs has super spermies! Shock

Sparkly123 · 24/02/2015 20:06

Prefers= preggers!!

eskimolaura · 24/02/2015 20:12

Sparkly I went to the doctor's in mid Jan and was given Norethisterone to bring on a withdrawal bleed, so they could do the Day 3 blood tests, which came back as normal. I've counted that bleed as a cycle, so I know I'm on CD33, and I got a positive OPK on CD15, so think I may have ovulated, although I don't chart , so don't know for certain.

I just don't know what is typical for me and what isn't- I can't remember my cycles at all before I went on the pill...

loopylou1984 · 24/02/2015 20:14

Lol at Toms super sperm! X

Giddymamma · 24/02/2015 20:14

Aw Eskimo, waiting around is tough. Have a cookie. Hope you don't have too much longer to wait.

mummyofonesofar · 24/02/2015 20:18

purds he isn't teetotal but no longer drinks on school nights and on Friday (his birthday) was trashed after 8 cans trying to keep up with his friend and was nice and went straight to bed. He used to drink 3 litres every night (then start on my wine in the cupboard) and be an arsehole and have a big row with me. It was only when he failed his medical he realised he had a problem - I had been making it up to be mean apparently. Hmm

When he failed I said to buck his ideas up or if he didn't pass in December I would leave him. He did really well and I am so proud of him gush gush gush

Rainy34 · 24/02/2015 20:22

Purdey i am on way more b6 than what you are on, i dont see your dose keeping AF away, got my fingers crossed that your cooking a little bubba

WinterBabyof89 · 24/02/2015 20:31

Giddy you must have the same/a similar book to me because I too have the snake & t-rex patterns.. You can do it!! Your snake was wonderful..

mummy yay to sharing the driving again.. Wonderful to hear that your DH has made good progress :)

i still lurk in the shadows

Hairstylisttoboris · 24/02/2015 20:34

mummy what a story! Good on your DH.
sammy you watched hollyoaks What happened, did 2004 return? Did you regress to be a student?! shame on you
Being slightly kinder - sorry that af feels like it's coming. Let's hope it's a mistake.

Sparkly123 · 24/02/2015 20:40

Boris I watched it too. It is actually 2001.. Where have you been? I don't get out much- that's my excuse! What's yours Sammy?! I back you either way- I watch it!! Ha ha

Eskimo how confusing for you!!! Really hope AF turns up soon.. Or a late BFP of course!Wink

Hairstylisttoboris · 24/02/2015 20:43

To be fair at the time hollyoaks was on the telly I was removing cat poo for the carpet and being grumpily cross with my moggy. hollyoaks may have been better than that
