ClairePO · 17/10/2007 21:41

lissiethevampireslayer · 17/10/2007 21:49

oh T. she's such a cow!

07mumstheword · 17/10/2007 21:49

Oh Lissie . If it's been two years already can you not go for help sooner than Jan? I'm so sorry for you and I hope things work out.

lissiethevampireslayer · 17/10/2007 21:53

we are already under a specialist, but really wanted to avoid aftificial conception, not least because we have 1 ds and will have to pay for IVF (even tho its prob the hospitals fault, but thats another story)

right, im drunk so should go to bed before i sob onto the keyboard. speak tomorrow ladies, thank you for letting me rant x

Bucky2007 · 17/10/2007 21:55

Lissiethevampireslayer I felt I just had to peek my nose in and say....well I don't know what to say really , but I felt I couldn't let what you said go by without acknowledging it. You are very brave.

While I am here, congrats to NH101 and how I laughed at the 'exploining of ILTEBS'...could somebody exploin about the sausages please? LOL

spookykitty · 17/10/2007 22:03

Lissie - what can I say, lifes a bitch sometimes but hey next month is next month big sticky BFP for both of us x

Sorry to everyone having a visit from the EW right now.

Someone was asking about cycles, I had my first AF 3 1/2 weeks after the first day of heavy bleeding which I counted as day 1 of the mc, so had about 10 days of bleeding a break of 2 weeks then AF which shocked me as it meant I was ovulating whilst still bleeding. Periods went back to normal straight away as well (damn them)

07mumstheword · 17/10/2007 22:03

Oh Lissie my heart really does go out to you. Nite nite.

07mumstheword · 17/10/2007 22:05

Hi bucky is DP home now? Are you recovering after last nights horrid events?

ladylush · 18/10/2007 03:52

Hi all, can't sleep as I went to bed at 7pm After my swim I was knackered. Gutted as ds has slept through 6 nights now.

Starlight - glad you are feeling ok today. It's a day by day thing I think. Like you, I have wanted to try again straight away (apart from the first m/c as the pregnancy wasn't planned and ds was still very young).

Lissie - so disappointed for you Don't blame you for hitting the booze. Am I right in thinking your ds took a long time to conceive? Have they found anything to explain why you have problems conceiving? Mind you, I know you've had several m/cs so it seems you have been able to conceive more easily since ds. By the way, I am going to be asking you for advice when my next hospital appt is due so that I can ask the right questions. What did the dr say today?

SK - at the sperm race. As I fell asleep so early today it didn't happen. Will have a last go tomorrow.

iliketoeatbatteredsausage · 18/10/2007 09:45

i have a new carpet cleaner, im going to try it!! woohoo clean carpets!!!!! and no af still, I tried checking my cervix again last night and it is out of reach and hard, any ideas what this means?

iliketoeatbatteredsausage · 18/10/2007 09:55

ok got a bit caught up in the excitment of my carpet cleaner!

iliketoeatbatteredsausage · 18/10/2007 11:07

EllieG · 18/10/2007 11:28

I used that calendar and it worked for me!
Good luck lady x

iliketoeatbatteredsausage · 18/10/2007 11:55

i know we did it on the 18th september and at least once the week after when i was suppsoedly fertile but i dont know if i ovulated or not, or even if i have as of yet so its just a waiting game i suppose

iliketoeatbatteredsausage · 18/10/2007 11:55

why is the word game underlined and in green??

07mumstheword · 18/10/2007 12:14

iltebs where did you get the ovulation thing from? Was it a website? I have no idea what it means for you it's so confusing but if you should have had AF by now and are SEVEN days late it sounds very hopeful? Those bets are looking good! You're never gonna last a week? Come on Mr Postman!

iliketoeatbatteredsausage · 18/10/2007 12:21

i think it was on this thread somewhere but the the link is here

hi all my neice is staying with us so no time on pc for me, had a quick look at that ovulation thing and my most fertile day was the 16th , ovulating on the 17th BUT I had a positive on the opks this morning. Managed BDing last night but tonight will be out, one last go on Friday night I think. Sorry can't hang about hope you are well. x

gillypumpkin · 18/10/2007 15:27

Hi all,
I?m sorry to hear about the rough time you are having Lizzie .
Ronshar I am sorry about your news too, I think we need to have that meet up to cheer us up!!

I?m still up for the 9th November so can we have a roll call and what part of London we are in please? Last time North London was convenient for the three of us but it may be different this time as there should be more.

  • Gillypumpkin (decided there was nothing scary about a daffodil) North or Central London

Littlebit, I didn?t know you were an only child Sorry you are going to be away on the 9th Nov, it would be good to see you again. I agree the Ottolenghui?s (sp?) was great but about the seating arrangements!

Hi everyone ? Katemom, sausage , kitty, starlight, ellie

Well CD 10 here and I think that acupuncture is having an effect but I don?t know if it is for the better . The CB monitor by know should have given me at least a high leading up to peak by CD12 and 13 but it was still low this am. She said it is because she is trying to make my periods stabilse and I will probably ovulate later this cycle. Thanks! For once I was due to ovulate at the weekend, she goes and makes me ovulate later!!!! Please don?t get me wrong though, I am being positive and trusting it, its just that I am a control freak and this month I am literally throwing the book at this conception malarkey and this could be the spanner in the works . I should be starting on the Chinese herbs very soon as well when they arrive in the post postal strike, our sorting office hasn?t caught up yet!

katendmom · 18/10/2007 16:07

Morning girls~ Not much going on here...I am SO not in London ~ it's not even funny... I am like an ocean away... so can't join you for the real cake fest.

The major step for us these past couple of days - I have finally gotten all the approvals and paper work for our genetics blood work and they drew my blood this morning! DH will probably get his done on Saturday (he can't do it on weekdays cuz he is the designated daycare dropper/ picker-upper for DS and doesn't have time between that and getting to work).

SO... like about 2 weeks later we'll know if I am a time bomb or if our mc's had nothing to do with me... I guess since my DH will have his blood work later - his results will be later too...

Funny but we have not been talking about TTC or babies or anything related... just BD when feel like VERY liberating I have to say!

Plus now that we know that our son has sensory integration dysfunction ? (yep, got as far as an early diagnosis) ? we?ve been spending all the time with him, playing, therapy, etc ? to help him learn to tone down some hypersensitivities (like texture, taste), to ?wake up? hyposensitivity ( like body-awareness, sense of balance) ? and finally learn how to integrate all the information from all the senses Hey, with me it?s never boring, huh? We can?t have like a normal condition that everybody knows (or no condition at all) ? I am like a professional researcher of conditions, diseases, etc ? you should hear me talk to doctors. They?re like ?do you have a degree in this? ? and no? I don?t? I am just a loving mom? who?d love to have a little sibling for her baby But it is just not that easy for my family... I guess
