Hi!! Back from party - surprisingly quiet at the playbarn it was in - think people assumed it would be closed BH - all good! Older dds are watching HSM2...have to say Troy is rather lush .
Nearly wine 0 clock I would say Nat, esp if you have been busy stripping wallpaper!
Moos, snap here with the months to avoid for the same reasons! Am pinning my hopes on acupuncture this time, but still really want to enjoy my two weeks hols in July/August and the sort of sickness I get has (on past record) meant hossy stay...not ideal on holiday!
Speak later x

MoosMa · 21/03/2008 17:04

Eeek, mine was never quite that bad, I just remember spending most of the summer lying on the floor trying to persuade myself to eat and wretching into the kitchen sink.

Diege · 21/03/2008 17:22

Phew, bad enough though by the sound of it Moos!! There's something very peculiar about how you feel with bad MS I think that is so hard to recall and explain to others, but then when you get it you can't imagine how you ever forgot! With you on the wretching down the sink - I also had lots and lots of saliva and dh was forever finding cups of discarded saliva by the sofa

MoosMa · 21/03/2008 18:46

Eurgh, that's enough to make me feel sick now! I do remember tiredness playing a major part in it, I was far worse with DD1 as I was working full time and although I had a toddler to look after the next time, at least I could do that lying down in my dressing gown eating crisp sandwiches

MoosMa · 21/03/2008 18:47

Maybe when we're suffering again we can start a 'pukers' thread?

Diege · 21/03/2008 18:58

Some sort of support thread would be great actually . Please not of the 'ginger biscuits always worked for me' variety though .

MoosMa · 21/03/2008 19:05

Oh no, certainly not! Maybe more of a 'I've puked 16 times already today, please wash my hair for me and tell me I'm pretty' thread?

BigTeuchLittleTeuch · 21/03/2008 20:16

Hi all! Belated bday wishes Freddie and Cal

Just swishing past as much to do!! Just home today but we don't actually have an operating bathroom just yet, and the house is a tip AND we are having lunch for, erm, 8 on Sunday. Fingers crossed for a toilet by then, eh?!

Luckily, we have a cottage we rent out which is only Mon-THur so we have a bathroom we can use...

Still a week to period time for me, due to late OV. Nada symptoms .

I'm not feeling hopeful this month, really.

Ow...sare heid!!! Must go and take something.

Laters.

tinkerbell2 · 21/03/2008 20:37

evening ladies
went to loo and noticed brown gunge in pants really excited cd 55 hoping is implantation

kayzisbroody · 21/03/2008 20:38

Hello everyone.

Cal, I hope you've had a good birthday.

I'm very tired again today, probably due to waking up at half 5. At least if I wake up at half 5 tomorrow I can get up and watch the Formula 1 qualifying

Must make sure to have a gof tonight.

Night everyone. Enjoy the weekend.

calsworld · 22/03/2008 00:07

I'll be with you on the pukers thread - def. no ginger biscuits in this house!

One of the few things i could stomach all through MS (5 weeks to 38 weeks) was mexican food. Everything else just churned...

Got to go, getting teased,

(PS had a lovely day might have had a mojita too many though and think i'm going to struggle when DS wants to get up in the morning!!)

I'm off to the Inlaws in the morning and they don't have internet connection so won't be back on till Tues , have a good one, x

kayzisbroody · 22/03/2008 07:16

Good morning,

I don't think I'll be pg this time round
Dh wasn't feeling very well last night and was really tired so I said he could just go to sleep.

BUT he stayed on the laptop in bed until 11!!! So I'm not very happy with him today. Also he'd forgotten that we need to have sex on certain days. So I am going to give him my pregnancy for dummies book and make him read it!!

Hope everyone has good days.

tinkerbell2 · 22/03/2008 08:04

morning k abit of red blood this morning
and cramps will update on amount of blood

NatalieJane · 22/03/2008 08:08

Good morning , , (was a very good night last night!! )

Bleurghhhhh, morning sickness..... it doesn't seem to be my style other than a few waves of nausea in the first few weeks. I don't know how you all cope with the severe sickness, poor you! Though I have lost count of the number of times I read things like "the sickness is good, means you've got a really healthy bean (errrrr, isn't it a baby? I don't want to give birth to a runner bean, or a baked one for theat matter, or a kidney one....) in there" if I was a novice reading that with no morning sickness I'd be pretty worried, but then I suppose all of us none morning sickness people get you back by offering the ginger biscuits! Ginger biscuit anyone?

Cal glad you had a good day.

Kay at DH for you, they have little idea of what we go through (mentally) for TTC'ing, no matter how hard they try, they never quite 'get it'.

Teuch, hope bathroom gets sorted out PDQ, I know a bit of how you're feeling, shower is still deadened, DH fitting one on Monday (he is on call over the weekend, so although he may not actually go out, he could do at any minute) Did your SIL come up with any news?

Tink, any thing this morning? Am keeping fingers crossed>

DH is convinced I am pregnant, I woke up yesterday with a very round belly , and can hardly eat anything. I think it is more that because I've been so busy this last couple of weeks I have been grabbing chocolate bars and bags of crisps instead of proper food, so have got fat, and the not eating thing, well I just didn't feel like it yesterday, probably because I've not really had that much to eat the last couple of weeks. I don't think I am pregnant I am only CD18, 5 OR 6 days DPO, surely nothing would have changed physically by now, even though I do show early, that is a bit too early! But then again it has only been a couple of months since I was showing with the mc, nooooooooooo don't get me started Nat......!

NatalieJane · 22/03/2008 08:12

Sorry Tink, x posts, sounds like it is probably your period really, I don't think red blood is a sign of implantation, is it? Looking on the bright side at least this mega cycle is over and hopefully the next one won't be quite as long! And if looking on the bright side doesn't help, grab chocolate, DVD, and DH and snuggle for the day.

BigTeuchLittleTeuch · 22/03/2008 08:48

MOrning!!

No news from SIL...nada! I'm so disappointed but not as disappointed as they are surely, so must keep it in perspective . I was just so sure!!! Just shows - me and my hunches...

I've lost my cycle...must go and check excel

Toilet should be in today...

BigTeuchLittleTeuch · 22/03/2008 08:54

Tinkerbell - it does sound a bit like period coming but fingers-crossed

As Nat said - would at least be closure on the massive cycle and let you get on with the next, hopefully shorter, one!

NatalieJane · 22/03/2008 08:58

Maybe your hunch is right, but they are waiting till 12 weeks? How people do that is beyond me, it took everything I had not to tell my mum with DS2, we had decided we wanted to go and see her and tell her face to face rather than on the phone, we had only known for 2 weeks before we saw her, but it was sooooooo difficult!

Think I had better go and get my watering can out, LOL DH laughs at me using it, but I can't go without a shower, and don't have time for a bath in the mornings, unlike DH, sooner that bloody shower is fixed the better!

tinkerbell2 · 22/03/2008 09:14

i dont mind if period never been so glad too see blood

Diege · 22/03/2008 10:21

Morning Beautiful day here, though still very windy. Will be seeing sister middle sister and her ds and dh this afternoon - probably about 3 hours is my max toleration!
TINKERBELL, I think tbh if I were you I would just be happy knowing where I am in my cycle, though if it's not implantation tis a mighty cruel trick of mother nature these past months!
Nat, well now, those symptoms are looking extremelyt promising . Yes, all a bit early, but then they say you do get them early WITH TWINS!!!
Kay, for you about dh - mine is the same re: staying up on the computer when he's tired, though he gets a gof do rarely from me he's never been known to pass up an opportunity. Treat them mean and all that
TEUCH, your hunch could still be right! Maybe as others say they're holding of until a little later (maybe she's had some spotting?). LOL at excel spotting, but then you are our logistics expert, so tis permitted .
Right, better check my e-bay - have loads finishing this morning!

NatalieJane · 22/03/2008 10:36

We had the wind yesterday, today it is snowing on and off, only little flutters, nothing settled. Tis a shame because if it wasn't snowing then we could have got the bouncy castle out, it is lovely sunshine out there, though cold obviously.

Good luck with eBay, you are a braver woman than I!

Diege · 22/03/2008 11:03

[twin], err, sorry ...e-bay is hit and miss with me. I sell a lot, and buy more than I should, but there are more and more real arses out there who make the whole thing very fraught at times!

NatalieJane · 22/03/2008 11:08

Cowbag

We gave up selling ages ago, had some bloke buy a top, he paid using paypal, we sent the top, 3 days later paypal took the money off us, twice(!!!!), because the buyer had used a stolen credit card, so we lost a top, and £38 quid! I used to buy quite a bit from there, but I find it more and more difficult to find bargains now. Most of the time by the time you've added the P&P, the total cost is either the same or more than what you can buy in the shops. I find it better for finding strange things that can't be easily traced in 'normal' shops. (No I am not talking about my rabit )

kayzisbroody · 22/03/2008 11:12

I have decided I hate ebay!! I sold ds's baby bath to some idiot woman and it took her 3 weeks to pay. I've just refunded her the money as she can't read and its buyer to collect and she lives in London!!!

Bloody ebay.

Its been snowing here. We might go to the railway or castle today.

NatalieJane · 22/03/2008 11:16

It is only going to get worse when they change the feedback thingymebob.

Have you left her feedback Kay?
