The Angry Pubes are bumming along on Bumsnet

I'm not half as eloquent as the Purds so but BFPs for all!!!!

Except twats, they can go fuck themselves.

###STATS###

Purds its proper shit! and it doesn't get better - it gets worse! And then you have to deal with shit people, shit phonecalls, shit tea, shit lunches, all whilst slapping a smile across your face and being grateful!!! - BUT keep your eye on the prize - the reason why you are there is to better yourself!

im not the best person to cheer work on today its been a fucking shit day for me already today too

purds when my reception children start in September! they come in all excited on the first day, no tears! it's not until the second day when they realise that they have to come everyday that they cry!
You can do this! computer screen, cbeebies, it's all dull! But at least you get paid for the office bit! ( well you will eventually)

Mummy/Sparkly, we were told that it all comes down to funding. Once we moved away from our old CCG they weren't prepared to pay for us. The new surgery can't refer patients directly for IVF, you have to be referred to a fertility specialist first, then the specialist refers you. They couldn't even do that for ages as they didn't have our notes from the old practice.

The Dr I saw at my new surgery also said that we may well have to have all our tests done again too, as each area likes to have their own results. It all just seems like a massive waste of time to me, and makes me really angry.

I have an appointment on Friday, so am just going to scream/beg/cry and see if it can be hurried up at all.

In the meantime, we keep hoping for a miracle.

Nomio Sorry if you have said all that before! Is the appointment Friday with the fertility specialist? Once you're in the system it should be quite quick. Does your new GP practice have your old records now? If not I would get onto NHS England's complaints team and they will be able to sort that (think I recommended this to you or someone else before - sorry if I am repeating myself).

See if the fertility specialist is able to get you in touch with the consultants secretary - old school I know but it still goes on - so you can get booked straight in directly rather than witing on another referral!

Or due to the whole "patient choice" movement - you should be able to go back to where you were due for treatment before and they should be happy to bump you back up the list where you were before (or do I remember you didn't do this because you get more chances at IVF in your new CCG area?). GP practices are private therefore seperate from the NHS system therefore you shouldn't have lost your place in line at your last clinic and should never have come off their books.

Nomio, this situation is so shit for you. I hope you can get things moving, it's so unfair having to start the whole process again

Sparkly, yes I feel much better today thank you. Must have been the double carbs that did it, roast potatoes and Yorkshire pudding!!
How are you, is the spotting staying away?

Stop wittering about bills. I don't have any fucking bills, the government pays them all. And what if I get two babies in my tum-tum (highly likely at Gennet; nearly everyone's two embryos implant )? I will have three tots under three and I will have to go back to work and will spend forever staring at a screen alongside people called Denise or Andrew. People who all dress exactly the same; women with brown shoulder-length hair pulled back from their no-make-up make-up faces and infantile bejewelled nails and wearing largely black to cover their sat-on-the-same-chair-for-eight-years fat arses.

Glittery, are you trying to tell me that office work enhances our lives? Makes us better people? I think you are confusing my County Council with trepanning.

Oh purds didn't realise you were in my office. Ask andrew to put the kettle on will you? Ta.

Have not managed to read but I will do, just waiting in line for my 21 day blood test , hope everyone is ok x

Rainy, good luck with bloods.

Purdie, sorry today is not so good. Keep going, if you can survive the 8 weeks you'll have learned loads and gives you something to put on your cv while you look for something else. And when you get your twins you can give it all up and go back to rhythm and rhyme and CBeebies and get maternity allowance for it

Hope someone's been keeping a seat warm for me as I'll be back on the bus soon hopefully. Just back from EPAC with tablets to finish my mc which started over the weekend at around 6-7 weeks

Oh pug :( hope you're okay and taking care of yourself. Come and sit next to me -pats seat-

pug I am so sorry to hear that :(

thePug so sorry lovely. X

Purdie snap out of it - home life is boring! We both know this, I hate working - it is also boring and most jobs have no inspiring moments - however nor does staring at the tv all day or listening to stupid overly happy babies on tv. You need the job to get the pennies to get your twin babies - then you'll be too busy to work because you will have 3 tots under 3 and 100 loads of washing to do each day. Being a mother is amazing but you are a clever woman and you need more mental stimulation than that! It may be that IT isn't the dept for you but it gets you some work experience and may open doors to better things. xxx

Pug I am so sorry lovely.

Pug I am so sorry to hear that.

Mummy thank you so much for all the advice. I will be mentioning those things when I see them on Friday. The whole process just seems to be stupidly complicated & everyone I speak to tells me something different.

Glad you are feeling better spinning.

Will catch up when I get home, but just had to say - baby bombed in my own office and said baby has been here for 2 hours.
And it prompted the guy I sit next to to say 'when are you having a baby?'
I truthfully answered 'I don't know' Xx

Nomio No problem - I hope it helps - the system is very muddled and not very user friendly - from the outside or the inside!!

Purdey I could also use the nicely nicely approach if that works better? - this is so good for your self esteem, the mental stimulation is good for your self worth, Nancy will be so proud of you when she gets older, you will value your home time so much more the sexy men at work are great to look at x

Nomio I'm sorry you are having to deal with all that confusion it all seems so unfair. I think mummys advice is good. There must be a way round this and I would push until you get it. Which I know is hard at times. But I think it seems crazy to have you starting over

Spinning glad you feel better. Still having brown spotting, but I got some balls from somewhere today and took another test which is positive In about two seconds, I'm hoping that's encouraging

Argh sammy inconsiderate arse hole!

Rainy good luck with bloods lovely!!

Thepug oh my love, I'm so so sorry what a shock for you. Hope you are being well looked affer? We are all here for you whenever you want to chat. Keep strong lovely, you can and will get through this

Sammy for you nothing worse than that question!!
