Hi all,

Haven't been on for a while cos of one thing and another. Last AF was 25th Feb. BFN. Got to have blood tests. Feel like shit, cos i'm sooooooooooo bloated. I'm really crabby too (what's new i hear DH shout!).

Hope you're all ok!

Congrats Mrsmcjnr

i have been poorly, caught tummy bug from ds1 so me and dp have been sick all night!ds2 has escaped so far, touch wood.

Hope all ok??

tigerschick · 11/05/2007 18:36

Oh poor you Scorpio. Is your dp still going away? Hope you are feeling well enough to enjoy your weekend.

My lower back is killing me today - was in my hips earlier but now moved to the middle of the small of my back Ah well. Maybe some bd-ing later will take my mind off it

Hope everyone has a great weekend - anyone else "Mile for Maude-ing"?

scorpio1 · 11/05/2007 18:44

yeah he is still going, he's recovering too!its a price job for the weekend so too good to turn away iykwim.i dont get to bd all weekend but mine is only for fun now! af due next thursday and then im off to the june thread im not very hopeful am i??

tigerschick · 11/05/2007 19:13

Not optimistic but not obsessing either - so better of 2 evils really.

Jacqei · 11/05/2007 19:31

We tried for a baby for 2 years with no success then a friend recommended we take a herb angus linctus and despite my doctor telling me my bloods had showed no ovulation again for that month i had a positive pregnancy test!! I now have a baby boy who was born 11 weeks early and he's perfect.

lissielou · 11/05/2007 19:40

well, had my day 8 bloods taken today and the fecking nurse really hurt me and my arms bruised to buggery! arrrrggggggghhhhhhhh

plummymummy · 11/05/2007 20:45

Tell us more about the herb agus linctus

plummymummy · 11/05/2007 20:46

I mean angus (ooh is it Scottish - if so Mrs McJnr might have heard of it).

lissielou · 11/05/2007 20:48

how are you doing plummy?

plummymummy · 11/05/2007 21:06

Not bad lissie. Feeling very bloated so I don't know if it's PMS or just bloating. I do get bloated before my period. I have been looking up stuff on the internet and I've just seen something about vaginal bacteriosis so I'm now wondering if I might have that. I think I will ask the doctor to take a swab. Someone else on a ttc had that but I can't remember who it was. How are you?

plummymummy · 11/05/2007 21:09

Couldn't find anything on the internet when googling that herb name.

lissielou · 11/05/2007 21:15

oh plummy, evap lines dont come up straight away, they appear after 10 mins and are grey. i so want this to be it for you!

plummymummy · 11/05/2007 21:25

Thank you that is very sweet but after analysing the test instructions I saw that there is a line (like a seam)which is between the max line and the test region so I think I was mistaking this for a second line. Stupid design destined to make us hopefuls needlessly more hopeful! They should design it so that the line in question is a different colour or put wording underneath it to denote that it is not in the test part.

lissielou · 11/05/2007 21:59

oh still, test on tues!

pobletsmum · 12/05/2007 10:27

Plummymummy - sorry to hear about odd CM - good that you're going to have it checked out. Would you be able to bring the appointment forward? I hope you get a 'real' BFP in the next couple of days.

MrsMcJnr - COngratulations!

Lexie100 - thanks for the access diagnostics code. How long is it valid for? I hope not to have to stock up again before BFP! Please add yourself to list so we can keep up with your cycle days .

As for me, AF turned up yesterday, after 5 days of spotting (unheard of for me). I'm quite relieved because of the antibiotics which I'm still taking. Every time I take one (4 times a day, an hour before food), I feel so sick until I eat something. Anyone know how important the hour before food rule is? Anyway, will definitely be going for it this month. Do I need to go to June thread now? Don't really understand when to move threads.

Sweetkitty & Soph73 can I join you as cycle buddies? I will ov any time my body feels like it, but has been CD14-25(!), average CD18.

plummymummy · 12/05/2007 13:09

Sorry to hear about af pobletsmum When you say you had spotting for 5 days, do you mean just a bit or enough to need a pad/liner? I'm interested because I've noticed that I rarely seem to have full flow until 4 days into my period, but I wouldn't really call the brown stuff I have before it "spotting" because it is too much. It is too much for a pantyliner. Therefore I tend to call cycle day one the day after I get this brown blood (which is heavier by day 2). This is why my period lasts beyond 7 days - hence my theory that I may need to bd while I am still bleeding. I can't bring my appt forward because it is the first available appt with a female GP and I would rather wait and see a woman. I don't have a lot of confidence in male doctors when it comes to these issues (though I'm sure there are many excellent ones - just bad experience on my part).

plummymummy · 12/05/2007 13:10

Oh and Lissie, yes I will still test on tuesday if no signs of the painters - though feeling less hopeful now

lissielou · 12/05/2007 13:13

will cross everything for you!

scorpio1 · 12/05/2007 14:38

i am better after my tummy bug now couldn't tell you if am pg or not, no symptoms either way. have tons of cm though, but maybe normal before a period?i don't really know!

hope everyone ok??
