The caravan of crap! for those of us who are browned off but not to the extent of those over there in the hut

[Thelittlesoldiersmummy]

Well welcome to the caravan sat on the top of a hill somewhere in Dorset some days its good here the weather is fine and all is happy other days the weather is crap and so is everything else!

Feel free to come in be happy, sad or just moody - Just no counting dates or charting or temping just us girls having a chat over a cupper looking out the window through the orange (yes orange) curtain x

Hi Libralady and Annie mac. Good day for me today been at the beach feeling slightly frazzled.
Libralady sorry about af it horrid when you get odd cycles, but at least you can enjoy the barbaque. I have got a season ticket to paultons go all the time with dd. I live about 20 mins away in southampton.
Anniemac I am half way through my ivf cycle and I think it usually 6 weeks except I think some time they can do a shorten cycle of a month but not sure. Your friend must be at the same stage as me if it makes her feel any better i know how she feels I have put on 5lbs. I have been getting very grumpy Dh is wondering what he has let him self in for. If she wants a chat she is welcome to email me.

[walks into the caravan slams the door staight to the drinks cupboard and pours a large rum and coke slumps down and starts to bang head on pull out table in middle]

Well I am really pissed off! not only have I found out my DH is wanking on the odd days (we are bding every other day) he bloody wanked yesterday on a day we are meant to then couldnt manage to finish (sorry tmi) but pretended he had I can feel when he has so after he pretended I said what was that you never came (again sorry tmi) and he laugh and said you were too wet (again so sorry tmi) so bloody blamed me and lied about something so important! It feels like its me on my own trying at the moment and where is the fun in that sorry need to get that out and get some sympathy

TLSM really sorry your DH has got some big time explaining to do I would say.

anniemac was really sorry to read about your upsetting visit to a GP, they can be so insensitive , feel bad as well cos i kept posting that you were lucky to have got them taking action so early, feel like i put a curse on you or something!

Another month wasted for me its weird its as though I have not been as bothered this month not watching my dates as much forgetting to temp so my falut just as much as DH with his incident the other night oh well here is to September bloody hell September that has come quick!

can i join in, haven't been to the hut but just had second mc (first in Mar) so back to it... not as devastated as I was last time, kind of expected it in a way and still fairly hopeful that our time will come.

JOWB welcome in you come have a drink x

thanks need one of them and am allowed to now!

Cycle Day 46 and I'm still awaiting AF This cycle is never going to end.

Mine's due any minute, and I'm sure it's on it's way. Boo.
I think it's too early for wine - anyone want a coffee and croissant?

Can I join too. I'm on my second cycle of clomid after ttc for over a year (I wasn't ov). I did a cycle of clomid earlier this year and it worked but I mc. I do have a dd who is 3.

I am finding it all a bit hard going emotionally (probably the clomid messing with my head) and don't have anyone to sound off too. I live away from all my family and closest friends and most friends here seem to be in various stages of pregnancy and new babies.

annie thats really nice of you but i think its going to sting a little whenever you get pregnant but I am sure she wouldnt want you to stop trying because of it! My sister on both of her pregnancies got pregnant a few months after her SIL had a MC it was just the way it was! I wouldnt give up if i was you but its up to you also she could start back trying almost straight away then she would be trying and you not! You sister is very lucky to have a sister that cares so much x

Agree with LSM - that is very sweet but I don't reckon your sis would want you to stop trying, or feel badly for you if PG, she must know how important it is to you.

Annie- my sister did the same for me when I had a mc in Feb, I was so so touched by her offer as I know she is so keen to have another DC. I remember muttering through the tears that she didn't have to stop ttc, but she stuck to her guns and did stop for a couple of months. I'm sure it will still hurt a bit now if I hear she is pg, but I am so much stronger now and it will be so much easier to bear. I think it would have crushed me if she had fallen pg in the couple of months after my mc to be honest. I was quite unprepared for how emotional I got and my bestfriend announced her pg a week after my EPRC so I was crazy enough feeling like a barren failure anyway. It really is one of the kindest things my sister has ever done for me and I won't ever forget it.

However, I'm not saying you should, I just wanted to let you know my feelings 'from the other side' so to speak. It is your decision and your sister will not hold it against you if you don't stop as she will understand how important ttc is to you.

Annie- just re-read my post and hope you didn't think I was being pushy.
My sister was planning to start ttc again in the New Year and then I had the mc, so I guess it was more a case of putting off starting ttc again for her.

I think as you were already ttc long before her mc, she would be understanding if you wanted to carry on. I personally would find it hard to stop the ttc rollercoaster myself now.

It is a sad situation for both of you my sisters SIL had her 4th MC whilst she was on holiday with my sister (she has has one DD in between time) but is still a horrid situation good luck to both of you x

can i wander into the caravan? promise to bring chocolate digestives with me.

i am on the ttc table and just stopped posting because i was too down every month (it's about 5th cycle for dc2 i think).

TLSM i feel for you as we had a spare few minutes this sunday when ds was napping and i suggested to dh that we make the most of it and he said "o'h dear i just helped myself out in the shower", and it's our main BDing time....

i haven't visited the hut and if i can visit the caravan with it's great views that would be good.

hello there.

I feel I belong in the caravan tonight as I've been a TOTAL dickhead.

I went for the HSG today and had to go home as they wanted me to sign a form saying I hadn't had unprotected sex since my last period.

I did - several times - I let dh talk me into it, not really thinking it would matter, despite being told not to by the nurse.

I was told that on no account should I have the test, because they use radiation and if I was pg (v.unlikely I think) they would have to terminate. If I'd known this I would have kept my legs crossed.

I felt very stupid, but I just couldn't lie.

They were incredibly nice - I think they respected my honesty.

So I have to phone them when AF arrives and book another scan.

To be honest even though I feel like a prize idiot I am glad I didn't have the scan today as I felt so scared and really not in the mood for it.

o'h lucy you poor thing, but well done for being honest!

I felt such a dodgy old slapper.

I'm not a good liar and reckoned they might see stuff up there which would give me away!

I now know all my bloods are normal - dh has to call in to find out about his sample.

hmm.

I do feel more relaxed about the whole thing than I did anyway, which I guess is something.

anniemac - I don't think you need to put your plans on hold (nice gesture though). I am sure your sis would be happy for you if you did get pg even if it was upsetting for her too.

I have found that with my pg friends, that the emotional side of my brain gets upset but, the logical side knows that they are allowed to get on with their lives.
