Hut of Gl/Doom, part IV - FTC, because that's what we do....

[duchesse]

Et voila.

This Hut is more of a Bedouin or desert tent than anything too gloomy. We shall supply our our own gloom.

A bit quiet? It's been deader than a doornail in here! But I suppose that is a good thing cos it means that nobody is gloomy enough to be in here!
I have a little predicament though.....we are invited to a wedding reception in a couple of months and I have a couple of issues with it. Firstly, it is around my should-have-been-due-date. And secondly, and more importantly, we will have to stay the night cos it is too far away, I don't really know anyone so planned on getting drunk (blush)but keep thinking that I could be pg by then. So if we book a room it will cost us £75, but if I am pg by then I a) won't be able to drink so will feel really shy and b) will probably be feeling v. sick and v. tired, so we would probably cancel and lose our £75. However, if we say "no" I probably won't be pg and we'll miss a potentially fun event! Woe is me, having to actually try and make a decision....

hmmm id go FMN, you deserve a knees up!

havent caught up properly, how are you all?

Hi Lissie. I assume everyone else is doing good cos nobody is here anymore!! Personally, I am feeling rather concerned about how close it is getting to my due date. I can remember not long after my mc reading others saying that they'd always assumed they'd be pg again by the time their due date had arrived, and how gutted they now were that it hadn't happened. And I thought "of course I'll be pg by the time my due date comes!". And now it is creeping nearere and nearer and I have to face the possibility that I won't be!

Ta, B-Sprout. Appreciate it. CD2. No surprises there, then. Fed up with no new change in our story. How're you?
FMN: I know it's nuts to spend so much time on 'plans'. Book it - you don't have to use the room - should things change. Probably get your money back, if you press.
Lissie, is everyone good out there? I do hope so.

tbh, ive seen a lot of hut dwellers about and they seem to be doing so well. FMN, i know what you mean, tomorrow it'll be 1y since i had my 2nd/4th mc and these damned anniversaries are getting closer each year

Hi Hut Peeps. I'm lurking now and then (not as much as I used too as I no longer work from home!). I've not a lot to add - just we are half way through IVF - which has generally been OK. I'm having a glum day focussing on the odds being stacked against us.... ho-hum.

FMN- book the hotel & party! I have put so much on hold waiting for the elusive bfp - it (almost/actually) becomes a form of self punishment. We've just got ourselves two seater sports car.... no longer holding out for a family car - we'll cross that bridge if/when... no if... it happens!

Hi to everyone else - shite weather isn't it!

Cx

Just wanted to say that several people on here might have something to tell us...

I am around, but just very busy in RL, and mostly lurking here.

That's great news Duchesse -
So, if you are lurking and may have some good news SPILL THE BEANS (when you are ready!)

We may moan about how loathesome we feel about our lot.... but ( & I think I speak for us all???) ... we're delighted to have people graduate from the hut - it certainly gives me hope I might move beyond the conception threads one day.

i get really excited when dwellers graduate, have even been known to cry

so if you have any news, dont just move over to the antenatal threads, spill first!

Just wanted to say thanks for all the congratulations .

Feels a bit weird thinking I shouldn't be in the Hut anymore. I definitely won't be going near any ante-natal threads for quite a long time, so I feel kind of homeless at the moment. I'll just wander aimlessly round the board for a bit...

I made some special gooey chocolate cake and some very potent pina coladas, if anyone's interested.

I feel that becoming bored with our desert tent. Shall we move to a hamam today?

ooh thanks sideways

duchesse, why not!

Hi everyone, I also have some news - got a bfp yesterday. Feeling very anxious of course but am taking things slowly.

The move sounds like a good idea!

beansprout - . Brilliant news. Can we feel anxious together?

Abso-bloody-lutely!!

Oh Beansprout, well done! And lovely. Take it very easy.
Did a new thread start?

how about a new hamman hut thread here and another new hut graduates thread for those with unbelieveable BFP's?
"hut graduates- STC but in denial - when is it all going to go wrong"??

Seaside - that sounds like a fab idea. Am torn between trying to feel optimistic and the feeling that my body isn't quite up to the job and something is bound to go wrong.

Will start it in ante-natal...

Way to go Beanie! Are they really ready for our particular brand of optimism in Ante-Natal?

makes a change from any moaning about ms. i swear the next time i am pg i will cherish every dry retch!

I dream of the day when cautious, common sensical pessimism rules on ante-natal boards. I already perceive that the formerly inappropriately bouncy tone of the conception board has come down a notch or two. Or maybe I'm just not going near the madly perky ones...

lol, i actually dont see the really upbeat ones now, i've trained my eyes to do the visual equivilant of sticking my finger in my ears and singing lalala laaalaaa evry time theres one with baby dust and bump vibes in active convos

I haven't actually seen someone sprinkle babydust for a while...

good job... GRRRRR

did i scare ya? did i?

Eek!!
