The Rules of Bumsnet

You can shag, you can syringe, you can temp, you can OPK; as long as your aim is a BFP!

We're cliquey so fuck off. LPB will be annihilated.

Thank you :)

Ah sammy, bloody children you can't trust 'em with anything! At least you've got time to prepare yourself for later & she knows how you're feeling. It's a difficult situation and I suppose there would have been no good way for her to tell you.... Its Just like ripping off a plaster on someone else I suppose.

night well done on the run, I went out too in the end but it was pretty warm outside and I really struggled today! Probably night shifts catching up with me and nothing to do with being 6 dpo

nightandthelight · 03/05/2015 14:47

I struggled too Dizzy but I always see that as a good thing, means your body is really pushing itself and thus really benefiting :) well done for getting out!

Juney could you update me please?

wotsits1, ttc2, AF was due 30th April but got bfp!! EDD 7th Jan

Nomio230 · 03/05/2015 16:02

Hi lovelies,

I was AWOL yesterday as it was my nephew’s second birthday on Friday, so we went to my sister’s house yesterday. I am feeling a lot better now. Had to have a lie down halfway through the day, then collapsed like some wimpy Victorian woman when we got home, but I am well & truly on the mend. Yay!

Rice, I hope your dad gets better soon. It must be so worrying for you.

Sammy, that is great news about your parents helping you out with the hycosy.

Pikz, we got married the day after my birthday too, so we always have a double celebration. Congratulations to you!

Yay Purple! The BFPs are coming thick & fast on this bus.

*Juney, I OVd late, so assuming a 14 day LP, my BFP is now due on the 13th. However, as I normally only get 9 days, it could be any time between the 9th and the 13th.

Purdie, get your lazy ass back to work! Seriously, I agree that you should try and stick out your placement while looking for something else. If you find the right job, you won't mind not being much better off. You will do it just for the sense of achievement. (Says the woman about to finish Uni, who is terrified of having to find a job!)

Sparkly123 · 03/05/2015 16:56

Spinners how's the symptom spotting lovely?!

Oyster hope your wedding day was magical! GrinFlowers

Purdita had a read through your posts.. You say you don't "look" good on paper, but how amazing are you in person eh?! I mean, this company just now were so impressed with you! (Obvs.) so if the job centre could help you get a foot in to an interview for a part time job they would hopefully feel the same! I think sticking it out if you can-which I know YOU can- is prob the best option yep, purely for the experience. Only a few weeks to go, and those four days a week will hopefully fly by and you will then be in a better position to decide how to move forward.. But £48 ? That's just insane. How did gardening go? My clematis are starting to climb, I always get excited! Ha. You know what I think is Gorg? Wisteria! Ha at your description of the primary coloured soft play...Hell on earth I say! Hmm

Chops love that your dh is saying that about the beard! Ha. My dh had a huge beard for about a year, it was intense!! Hope hairdresser went well! Smile

Mummy you love soft play?!? Shock

Woolly good luck for this new cycle lovely!!! And temping! Smile

Sammy glad you made decision on it with dh support! Hope your indoor BBQ went well!!just read about your parents support- so lovely! Sorry about the baby bomb, must be hard but I'm so glad your sil came to chat about it with you and was sensitive about it all after the little one let slip. This could be you soon lovely, you are almost there.

Lucie lovely, been thinking of you. Hope you have managed to do something nice over weekend, you really are doing so well keeping your chin up..I hope Tuesday will bring news one way or the other for you to plan moving forward. Sending Flowers

Eskimo hope you are feeling better after Friday Flowers

Yokyil hope things are beginning to sink in for you! I'm here to hold your hand! BFP after mc is always going to be a little tough but you have to focus on the positives- excuse the pun!

Rice so sorry to hear about your dad,what a shock for you. Poor thing. Hoping so much for improvements today. Also hope your infection is clearing up! Everything happens at once doesn't it!! Sending Flowers

Marys thank you. So sorry for AF! The miracle post mc cycle didn't work for me either obviously but lucky number three has.. So keep going and keep strong lovely Flowers

Pikz happy paper year! And happy birthday! Hope you are feeling a lot better nowFlowers

Boris how's you feeling now??Flowers

Night hope you are out of limbo soon! Not long to go! Promising temps then!!Flowers

Purple I almost missed your post!!!! BFP!! Congrats lovely! Fantastic Sunday news!StarFlowers

Dizzynorth did you run? I hate jelly babies!!!Shock

Nomio oh you are feeling a little better? Fantastic news!!! So glad to hear that! Flowers

DizzyMerry · 03/05/2015 17:11

Good to see you sparkly how are you feeling?

Nomio pleased that you're on the mend now but try and take it easy.

Well 8dpo and I started getting some cramps over an hour ago and have had some brown spotting. I'm really worried now as I've never had spotting before. Cramps have subsided now.

Nomio230 · 03/05/2015 17:22

Dizzy, it could be implantation! The timing would be right. Smile

nightandthelight · 03/05/2015 17:27

Implantation bleed Merry?!

DizzyMerry · 03/05/2015 17:30

I didn't have it with DD though and don't remember feeling anything at all, though I didn't have much of a clue back then. It can't be though and I'm just worried that something has messed my system up!

Sparkly123 · 03/05/2015 17:31

Ohh Dizzy ok... I'm sorry I'm sure I've asked you before but do you temp? What's it doing? Have you never spotted right now?? I'm ok thanks for asking just really sleepy and been taking it easy today as wiped after yesterday!

nightandthelight · 03/05/2015 17:33

Not an expert but I'm sure the fact that it didn't happen with DD isn't a problem :) Do you ever get spotting at this part of your cycle?

DizzyMerry · 03/05/2015 17:34

Sparkly pleased that you're doing ok. Yes, try and get as much rest as you can. I've never spotted before and I started temping this cycle but haven't noticed anything untoward.

Nomio230 · 03/05/2015 17:37

Just because you didn't get it with DD doesn't mean you can't have it now. Each pregnancy is different. Smile I will have my fingers crossed for you, Dizzy.

DizzyMerry · 03/05/2015 17:44

Thanks for your input ladies. I just hope it's not due to the low progesterone although I've always had low progesterone but never any spotting.

Nomio230 · 03/05/2015 17:46

I have low Prog. but have never had spotting. Hopefully it is a good sign for you. X

I have literally been watching the Hairy Bikers for about 3 hours on TV. I keep telling myself I will do some cleaning in a minute, but it is not happening!

DizzyMerry · 03/05/2015 17:49

Thanks nomio. I love watching breaking the Hairy Bikers but haven't been able to watch for a couple of weeks. The cleaning can wait Grin

DizzyMerry · 03/05/2015 18:01

I can write today!

DizzyMerry · 03/05/2015 18:09

Haha Nomio totally going with that nothing to do with the fact that I'm usually dizzy

spinningirl10 · 03/05/2015 18:52

Ooh Merry, hope the spotting is a good signGrin

Sparkly, no symptoms to spot hereGrin
Have dh's family gone now or are they here for a while?

Yokyil · 03/05/2015 19:01
