Do you like feeling left out of a group? Do you enjoy being marginalised and isolated and picked-on? How about a good bullying? If so..you're in t'wrong place, cock, coz this 'ere is the TTC thread where you feel loved, embraced, encouraged, wanted, lusted after, admired, respected, thought-of with fondness, missed when you're away. We will even put up with your lazy, selfish bastard of a husband who would rather watch Chelsea romp through the Premiership than put a baby in your tum-tum.

Absolutely any old slag welcome, unless you already have a baby in your tum-tum and we're about as familiar with you as a condom. You can get lost Smile

t'STATS, innit

Fx for you Sparkly! Don't let her mess you around.

Mummyofonesofar · 16/04/2015 09:18

It sounds like the bleeding is slowing if it is only blood on wiping and not in the mad any more - which just counts as spotting now rather than bleeding doesn't it? Some women have monthly period the whole way through their pregnancy. I am so hoping for good new for you x

Oh Sparkly, I really hope the dark line is a positive sign.

Night, yay for house keys. Not for the cleaning though. How exciting, a new houseSmile

nightandthelight · 16/04/2015 09:26

Ridiculously excited spinning although not looking forward to the actual moving bit! Will probably not be on here much this weekend :(

purdiepie · 16/04/2015 09:31

Mummy, there's blood in the toilet when Sparkly's weeing. I think that's what she's saying. I still think the pregnancy is progressing for now. Perhaps the scan will show a fetal pole and yolk sac? I hope so.

Baker, what a lovely thing to say, thank you Smile

Sparkly, are you interested in a lap & dye under GA? Do you think a more invasive investigation of your uterus would be a good thing? I do.

Ok Purdie I read it wrong - will shu'p now.

auxiliaryauroch · 16/04/2015 09:50

sparks I think the fact that you are not in flow is a really good sign. I am not a gynae or obstetrician or anything, but besides it being clearly distressing and awful and also frustrating, I would hazard a guess and a bit of clutching! that the dark hpt and the blood only coming with the loo and muscles actually having to work to push the blood out when you engage them for peeing, that it might be the egg putting down ultra deep roots into your lining, to stay firmly put for a boring rest of the nine months!

Hairstylisttoboris · 16/04/2015 09:50

purds and sparks thinking of you both today. X

purdiepie · 16/04/2015 09:55

Mummy, was I right about ov being on the 12th for you?

Boris, I haven't yet read your long reply to me on fb as I want to give it full attention. I'm not ignoring you, sugartitis Thanks

Sparkly that's brilliant that the test is getting stronger. You are still pregnant! Lets see what the scan brings. Don't take no shit from Trunchball fuck today. Be strong!!!!!!!

Purds - just say you took some time out to do some voluntary charity work (insert random charity) looked after elderly neighbours, took some holidays (insert normal holiday places) and enjoyed being a lady of leisure, had your beautiful baby, and now you are ready to get back into the working force. If you need a reference I'd be one for you. Really bang on about how great you are customer service wise and how you have excellent listening skills and problem solving. etc etc.

Mummyofonesofar · 16/04/2015 10:03

Purdie Well it said 13th but this would have been 3 days after my first peak (last month i ov'd 2 days after) but when I took out my lower due to 5am temping on 13th it moved them back to 12th like your prediction. So I have left it like that.

GlitteryLipgloss1 · 16/04/2015 10:03

I might be totally wrong... if you are only bleeding when going to the loo, and nothing on any pad overnight...are you sure you aren't bleeding from somewhere else Sparkly?

chopsface · 16/04/2015 10:09

Keeping an eye out for updates on sparkly....

Thanks for the congrats baker I'm fine thank you. Trying to let it sink in but keep having anxiety issues. Really need to chillax! Being in work helps though.

GlitteryLipgloss1 · 16/04/2015 10:09

Purds - , 8 weeks with no pay, , you could be using those 8 weeks to find something that does pay. Or is it a condition you have to oblige for the DWP?

GlitteryLipgloss1 · 16/04/2015 10:13

aw chops face, I suppose before any sickness starts its hard to believe it. Your lines were very strong though! I would love you to pop back and let us know how many there are in there! :)

purdiepie · 16/04/2015 10:51

Glittery, I'm not on any benefits so nowt to do with dwp. This placement is a scheme for people who've been out of work for yonks and perhaps lost their confidence in their skill base. It's the right way forward for me, plus county councils are jobs for life innit.

purdiepie · 16/04/2015 10:53

I don't want a career, just a job that pays for holidays for the tot and dancing and music lessons and stuff when she's growing up. Want to pay for more ivf too.

Mummyofonesofar · 16/04/2015 10:59

So Purdey if you get some paid work which can fund another baby in your tum-tum does DHs payments go down or stay the same? I know loads about tax credits and income support but not IB/ESA whichever he is on? Please feel free to ignore me!

Sparkly123 · 16/04/2015 10:59

Replying to you all first:

Baker course sounds fun.... Ha. Don't worry flashing smileys are before the main event so you are good to go!!! Plenty time yet!

Thanks Pixa hope you are ok

Purds your chart is totally going for it. Good rise. Re the Lap.. It's been discussed, then decided against. Many times over the years. The reason being the GA and the recovery for me I think. They said if they did find endo anyway and laser it away it will come back so a lap would be purely for endo diagnosis only. Oh and a lovely Gynae told me once- "there's more risk involved with you because you are thin".. I asked what she meant by that.. She said "well it's easier to make the cut in the wrong area!"... Eh what?! Is this utter nonsense? Surely! (Beginning to think my Scottish health board are really slipping in standards...ha )

night think we can let you off for weekend.. Moving is very exciting!

mummy yeh there has never been much blood on pads only when passing urine in toilet and some clots there too

aux lovely, thank you for your thoughts. We can only hope.

Glittery great reference for Purds yes!! The thought crossed my mind re bleeding but it's def coming from there! Also, sometimes when I stand up it comes too, not just peeing. the things we discuss on here eh...

Sparkly123 · 16/04/2015 11:01

Excited for your job interview Purds . I really hope it goes well. And if it did lead to paid work, you could be well on your way to IVF number two!!!!

Pixa · 16/04/2015 11:10

Thanks Sparkly, I am well. I have today off of work for DHs birthday, but it meant working late on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday; so I am really struggling to keep up but do keep popping on to keep an eye out for key news! I am away for the weekend, but should be back for a huge update and hopefully lots of good news from people on Sunday. Smile

Hairstylisttoboris · 16/04/2015 11:11

purdie don't forget you have also been a stay at home parent to your child and you have developed a thriving voluntary support service counselling women round the country on possible fertility issues. We can provide references for this work. :)

loopylou1984 · 16/04/2015 11:16

Thank you Purdey, I'm on the app at work so can't see your chart but will take a look when I get home. Xx

GlitteryLipgloss1 · 16/04/2015 11:21

oh sparkly I hope you have good news for us xx
