"As UPS discretely unloaded my 55 gallon drum, the driver accidentally spilled it into my driveway. Any amount of cars can now fit into the garage."

Haha!

Woolly84 · 08/04/2015 21:51

Lubelicious! Grin

Hi mummy! Hope you're well?Smile

Sparkly123 · 08/04/2015 21:51

Oh Glittery that's so sweet of you. Thanks so much for saying that but I honestly don't feel I do anymore than any of the rest of you lot! I guess with my health I've learned lots of ways to pick myself up and stay focused.. I have to repeatedly do it so regularly now that I suppose I must have just acquired some top tips! My perspective on things has changed significantly during all my issues and I try my best to see the positive in every situation. But I'm in no means perfect at that, as my crying fit yesterday showed! .. Sorry you have been feeling so low. It's unfair eh. No one can be upbeat all the time lovely, especially not going through this TTC process. I never in a million years thought it would drain me so much after only 8months. But I shall not give up!and neither will you. It doesn't matter which month we get our BFPs, we will soooo appreciate them when they arrive. And you may not have your Christmas baby this year, but you most definitely can and will have your Christmas bump!... And you can get your photos by the tree and show them to the little one when they are celebrating their first Christmas in 2016! We will make it!! Keep the faith StarAnd in the down days, let it happen and you will pick yourself up again. Just like you will do now Flowers

pikz sorry for lost ovulation, but when in doubt, shag!

nightandthelight · 08/04/2015 22:05

We seem to lose a lot on these buses (Eskimo's AF, spinning's envelope, pikz's ov). I suggest we call in DC Dizzy!

Sparkly123 · 08/04/2015 22:10

Good idea night can we add my BFP to the list! Ha ha Grin

Sparkly123 · 08/04/2015 22:11

Actually DC Dizzy if you could find the BFPs for the lot of us that would be much appreciated!

I'd like to imagine that Kate Middleton was on 'ere and moved over to the AN threads. Why not eh? She's still a neurotic human!

Too early to test spinning and don't go putting ideas in poor night 's head. Ive never tested ever early and I'm fine! Confused Me and night shall patiently wait and see what the weekend brings Grin

Night all x

Nomio230 · 08/04/2015 22:12

We are all going to get our Christmas babies, even if we have to steal them!

Mummy, thank you for that information. I had no idea that was the way it worked, I just naively assumed the NHS was one big organisation.

Loving the 55 gallons of lube!

Thank you for all the good wishes. I am just having a bit of a down day. Sick of being messed around by doctors & now it looks like the house we want to buy might fall through. There is some kind of problem at the other end. Sad

spinningirl10 · 08/04/2015 22:12

Haha good idea night Smile

Pikz, I've checked the car door twice! No sign, I'm wondering if it dropped out at some point so maybe it will find it's way back to me........if DCDizzy doesn't find it first!

Rainy34 · 08/04/2015 22:13

thanks Pikz, il get some from amazon

spinningirl10 · 08/04/2015 22:17

Oh no Nomio, I hope you don't lose your house! Will be keeping fx for you. Maybe you need to send 'those people' round, the ones Purdie knows to see your docs and find out where your notes are!
Seriously though, 2 months is not good enough, you need to get tough with themAngry

Sparkly123 · 08/04/2015 22:21

Oh sorry Nomio things can change in a day... I hope so much this turns around for you Flowers

Spinning hate when things like that happen and you go over and over it but can't find what you are looking for! Hope it turns up!!

Purdita hope you are ok love Flowers

Hi all, thanks for all the lovely messages. It's been a tough few weeks but I am determined to be positive about the next time. I was really lucky last time to get my BFP 2nd month after coming off the pill and first month of charting. I almost felt at the time 'this has been too easy' and was worried from the get go about a MC. I had just managed to convince myself that 6 weeks post BFP with normal symptoms and no pain or bleeding that all would be fine when I had the scan and it all fell apart... Not sure now whether I 'knew' from the start it would go wrong or if I'm just a worrier and was unfortunate to be proved right.

Anyway, I'm not sure when to start doing things like opking or charting. It's 15 days since ERPC but I'm still having brown spotting every other day or so and a faint positive on a cheapie preg stick this morning so should probably wait but am impatient!!

Re nhs, I am now their greatest fan. My original scan was private. They were awful. So insensitive and unhelpful. She looked at me and with a slight smirk said 'it's one of 2 things. Eire your dates are wrong or it's a miscarriage. You need to come back in a week. Or if you can't afford us ring the hospital and pretend you're bleeding'. I couldn't believe it.

Nomio230 · 08/04/2015 22:23

Good thinking Spinning! I am sure the problem is with the old surgery, not the new one. They are the most incompetent, unhelpful people I have ever met.

Victoria, I love the idea of Kate being on here & talking crap about CM, then going off to state dinners!

Night, go POAS! We need a BFP.

frogbubbles · 08/04/2015 22:24

Oops late night catch up for me been out this evening, I don't think I can say where you girls might laugh at me. Anyway I am a little bit tiddled too so apologies in advance for any gibberish.

Sparkly I am indeed ready for the weekend!! How are you my lovely?

Ibeka sorry for your loss, I hope you are not here long.

Butter. eek!!!!!! Fx fx fx

You Lot and your 50 gallons of lube have me "lolling".

What is this miracle shizzle Q10?? I don't think I can eat any more Brazil nuts thank god I found pound land selling them. I've been eating loads of the bloody things!!

Also I need to stop with the epo (tmi alert) there is too much cm, I've had to change my pants twice today! I'm scared when we DTD at the weekend I'm going to lose MrF into the abyss!! Blush

ibeka · 08/04/2015 22:24

Oh, and I am very pleased to hear this is a mega bus and for snacks I will try to bring something slightly more nutritious and conducive to conception than the chocolate and wine I have been living off recently!! I saw purdey mentioned a parsnip and maple syrup cake... Tis a favourite recipe of mine so shall bring some of that along!!

frogbubbles · 08/04/2015 22:26

Awwww bugger bugger bugger on the house Nom, I'll have my fx until you find out what's happening.
