So we are rolling on to thread #five –
We are not giving up, our PMA is still alive.

Put pure and simply,
We want to have babies,
God, please help everyone of these lovely ladies.

We support each other,
We are funny and kind,
And we will not be giving up,
Until we see that thick BFP line.

AmandaP86x · 12/04/2017 11:06

Think we need to go and drink from the same tap as these girls though...

I've been bombarded with baby bombs too @AmandaP86x. Getting pretty tricky to keep up my enthusiasm for them! Definitely need some of what those girls are having! Bet their manager is delighted they're all heading off on mat leave! 😂😂 #hrnightmare

Speaking of which,when I went on mat leave my replacement announced she was pregnant shortly after then went on mat leave for a month when I returned. We were jokingly told that when we have more kids,we need to keep up the overlap. Found out she's trying again too!! Oops! Another #hrnightmare 😂😂 she's going through ivf again though so may well beat me to it. Pretty hard to be miffed with someone whose had a more bumpy TTC journey than you though #notcompletelyheartless

CakesALot · 12/04/2017 11:47

A month after I returned that should say, she was off longer than a month!!!

ArchiesMamaBird · 12/04/2017 11:47

OMG Amanda tell me where and when and I'll meet you there Wink

I bet their manager hated them!

AmandaP86x · 12/04/2017 11:59

Ha ha @cakes I was just thinking that! A month she was keen lol!!! That is a nightmare lol!!! But honestly 2nd day of AF and another baby announcement. However my friend did say we obviously don't know what these girls have went through or how long they have tried for so I try and not be too angry 😏

Hippychic79 · 12/04/2017 12:06

Just popping on to day - baby bombs suck any cycle day ... but CD1 - 4 ... they are totally not welcome lol.

Yes we need to get to that tap ladies :)

Amanda You're so very right though.... no one ever tells you how long they'd been trying for.... I'm guessing the elation you feel when you see that BFP totally wipes out how shit you've felt from the other BFN cycles :)

AmandaP86x · 12/04/2017 12:14

Yes defo however one announcement said they had to put their holiday if a lifetime on hold.....makes me think it wasn't so planned lol

Itsjustaphase84 · 12/04/2017 13:44

I gave up Fb for lent. Back on it Sunday. Sure there will be a few BB I've missed thank god. I was BB last week, always makes me a teeny bit sad and selfish

Amanda htf do those 'we all got pg' situations happen? It boggles my ming how fertile they are... Is it being surrounded by babies making them broody? Hmm

I've started getting back in to exercise and applied for a new job. The last time I took up a new position I found out I was pg within a few weeks...

BellaMoon · 12/04/2017 17:51

oh @AmandaP86x as soon as i saw that fb post this morning i thought "fuck that's an HR nightmare"! i work in a secure psychiatric hospital so when one of our nurses informs us she's pregnant she is pretty much supernumerary straight away onto 9-5 office work doing paperwork cos we can't risk their safety on our, at times, violent wards. one at a time is more than enough lol #canigetasipfromtheircup

DH sensed my horrible mood this morn so booked me a wee nail appt - he's a cutie (don't be fooled, there's football on tonight isn't there?) so now pampering myself with new nail colour #takingmindoffthings

Roseandbee · 12/04/2017 17:52

No worries hippy, ill share one of my dads favourites seeing as it's his birthday month.

Good one for me today seeing as DH made me do a FRER this morning and seeing as I'm 13dpo I now don't have much hope it's this cycle, but think of all the fab sale offers on bd presents for those of us who will have January babies!

@bellamoon what colour you gone for?

BellaMoon · 12/04/2017 19:38

any sign of AF @Roseandbee ?

i'm feeling quite anxious about the prospect of AF showing up this weekend 😿

i'm going to single handedly revive the french tip manicure #retro i was convinced to go for this cos i haven't decided on an outfit for a wedding i'm going to on saturday so didn't wanna commit to a colour #newworldissue #thestruggleisreal

I always go French Bella!!! I think they're so classic and like you say go with anything!! Fx af leaves you alone this cycle!!! Xx

Ooo Rose what a fabulous idea, a January sales baby!!!! Xx

Sorry about all the baby bombs ladies 🙁 We'll get there soon!! Xx

I reckon this Peggy that's on her way must be massive!!! I'm getting terrible pains this cycle. OH is home tomorrow, I hope he's 'dispensed' of his old Doreen's (sorry tmi!!) cos I want young fresh ones tomorrow, anyone think I should text him just to make sure??!! 🙊 Xx

BellaMoon · 12/04/2017 20:54

thanks @sarahboro1 #oozingclass

and YES make sure he's made a doreen donation to kleenex before he comes home 😉 #doreendonation #megalolz

sarahboro1 · 12/04/2017 21:01

Ha ha Bella omg he'll have a fit if I text him that!!! #charitybeginsathome #noolddoreensherethanks

CakesALot · 12/04/2017 21:10

Gorgeous @BellaMoon! Love getting my nails done. Proper treat. My treat this evening is a browse through 'oh crap, a guide to potty training' #toomuchpooandwee #nappiesforever

I'm so often tempted to text DH to remind him he needs to be on duty tonight!! Always decide against it because he moans it's takes the romance out of it 😂😂 sod romance, there's business to be done!!

sarahboro1 · 12/04/2017 21:21

Exactly cakes!! Sod romance I'm on cycle 13 ffs!!! This boy needs to pull his finger out (nothing else though!! 🙊) xx

BellaMoon · 12/04/2017 21:30

haha isn't it funny that the men folks all of a sudden need romance with DTD when the pressure is on but before loved a quickly?? and they say women are fickle creatures!! x

sarahboro1 · 12/04/2017 22:02

Honestly Bella they're such divas!!! Xx

Hippychic79 · 13/04/2017 07:04

Chance of a quickie would be a fine thing here .... just got rid of the witch but too tired for quickie let alone romance 🤣

rose thank you for the quote xxxx sending you hugs xxx

Thanks Hippy:) hope your PMA is returning now you unwanted visitor has left, hopefully you won't see her again till next year now

Lovely mani Bella, I'm obsessed with painting my nails, altho I've never had them professionally done, which is how I justify my huge polish collection to my DH, think of the money I've saved! Hmm

Still no sign of AF and still no spotting so don't know if that means I'll be late. I always spot 4-5 days before AF. Does anyone else spot? #spotthespotters

I had a good giggle about all the Doreen talk. My DH has become reluctant to donate, he was all like TTC is gonna be the best!!! And now he's realised I just want him for his Doreen's he's all like "Meh I'm gonna go empty the dishwasher like you asked me to last month"

Hippychic79 · 13/04/2017 08:36

Awww rose thank you ... my Pma did take a bit of a vacation... didn't help that dp and I had a big bust up when she arrived ... and it does take me a while to get over stuff .... I hate falling out with people ... especially my dp... bless him he doesn't even know the real underlying reason ... which is obvs ttc.

In light of the chat on here about dps handling ttc part of me is glad he doesn't know .... I think it would put way too much pressure on him.

I don't spot as such but this cycle I did have a bit of blood then an hour or two of nothing then another little bit before she came full pelt ... maybe this is spotting ? Xxx

Are you ready for a newsflash?
Well... AF arrived today!!! Woohoo
Only taken 120 days. Now FX I can get back on track.
Had more blood tests yesterday at docs. So will be interesting to see what they say next wed when I go back.
But in the meantime. Hooray! 😊👍👏
