Maybe a nice shiny new thread will get us all enthusiastic again. I am on my rubbish diet so I only have nuts and beans to put out on the table. Oh and gin of course ;o) Anyone got any cakes to tempt me with?

Ding ding....let's...go

Do you think I have gone a bit mad

Found you all!! Lovely new thread - thank you Bucky. Am impressed it's a healthy one - my new aim this month (apart from getting pregnant...) is to really lose some weight instead of talking about it!! Pass a nut, someone

scary great to see you here. Do hang about, and we will make the next 3 months go as fast as possible! And do come along to the meet-up if you are able, it would be lovely to meet you in the "flesh" so to speak!!

PnM sorry to hear about BFN, yet no AF. You are in limbo like EI. Do join us with the temping, although obv i hope you are pregnant and won't need to! How awful to see that mum behave like that. Even in the worst times when my 2 were tiny i never spoke to them like that (or anywhere near like that) When i see people like that i always want to whisk the child away!!! (have to change my name to mad old baby snatcher)

Mibbes hope you are ok, and that the bleeding is stopped. What a worry for you. Hopefully just miblet settling in for the duration. Thank you for the invite to the other thread - i will pop over there when i have a minute.

Good morning to everyone else, GG are you ok? Haven't seen you about? (Or haven't i read all the posts properly?!)

Hmm tinkerbell (love the new name !) did you have any other signs of ov where FF has your lines (opks/EWCM) if not then possible ov on cd17, it is very difficult to say... Equally the first rise could also be ov as FF thinks... Some ladies do have a post ov dip caused by an estrogen surge and maybe that is what has happened. anyone else able to help ?

hi mibbes great to hear from you
thanks for advice. no no other signs of ov where they have line.
got a bug on friday getting better now had runs and sickness

mibbes · 09/04/2008 09:01

well in that case youe temps Fri-Sun may have been affected by bug. Maybe more likely you did ov on CD17 esp as you noted CM those days.. hope you were BD'ing loads

mibbes · 09/04/2008 09:03

oh and some ladies also have a pre-ov dip then a slow rise which would tally up with a CD17 ov... FF may change your lines in the next few days, esp if you ask it to disregard Fri's temp.

Morning all!

Glad I found you all, phew!

scary It is lovely to see you here, after you have had such a rough time. Do pop in again and let us know how you are.

bucky and MOB I hope your thermometers arrive today! I agree with mibbes about temping, at least I know what is going on and know when to test/expect AF.

mibbes Glad things are OK now.

tinker If you get a high temp tomorrow FF will probably confirm ov on CD17. It can take a few days for a pattern to emerge.

P&M Where is your AF? If you ov later than you thought you still might be pregnant. Fingers crossed.

ei Any news from you?

Hello to GG, hatty and anyone I've missed!

Another high temp for me this morning, hurray! I can start 'symptom spotting' soon

hello everyone!

What a lovely new thread. No doubt I will still be 2WW-ing when we run out of space on this thread . You cannot git rid of me!

Sorry I haven't posted for a few days. I have been royally shafted at work, but have some breathing space again. I am shattered -i haven't done such long hours in ages .

Mibbes - don't worry, I can understand your accent . I have been living in sunny Sassenach Land for the last few years, but still have my rough Weegie accent and can interpret for the others . How are things with you? feeling good?

Scary - hurrah! I didn't know you lived in London, so please come along to the meet up. I hope you are feeling ok after all the ups and downs of the last few weeks. IT's been a tough old time, but thinking of you

Bucky - I hope Mr B's test went well and the mercy dash to the hospital with his sample stuffed down his trousers was ok . Fingers crossed the results are fine.

Nothing much to report here. I am CD10 which is usually the start of the EWCM for me and DH is b*ggering off to Germany again for work on the key nights. The funny thing is that even though his sperm count is i the "nearly nil" category (my wording ) I still plot lots of BD-ing and panic if we haven't. I suppose you have to be in it to win it, and there is no harm in trying, although I certainly don;t get my hope sup (except during the 2WW ) DH and I have our referral with the fertility specialist on Monday 28th and I am counting down the days. DH will be packed off on his business trip with a copy of Zita West's TCOYF for reading on the plane (ha, can you imagine the looks he'd get ) and lots of Man Vitamins.

picknmix - woweeee, even the sound of Chocolate Jezebel Puddings makes me go weak at the knees! Do you make them?! Crying when watching HTLGN is definitely a sign of a bean in the oven. I love that programme! Maybe we could go on?! I can see the journalistic angle now....."All our ladies on tonight's show met on the two Week Wait Thread on Mumsnet! After having 25 babies between them they are shy about their bodies". hell, I;d settle for additional celulite and an even falbbier stomach in return for a baby

hello to hatty - how are things with you m'dear?

madoldbird - I am here . How lobely to be missed . Just had far too much on to post here.

ei - have you had an more psychic dreams which reveal my baby making potential?!

jolly - I have such a good feeling for you this month and congratulations on the tempretures being consistently high!

nice new thread.

Feel like I need to join the gang and do a chart so have registered with FF. Just need to wait and see what it tells me.

Mibbes - the more people I speak to, the more people I find out had bleeding and still have beautiful children. I had 3 bleeds before 7 weeks with DS, my friend lost count of the number of bleeds she had when she was pg with DD2 and a woman I work with had such a heavy bleed at 12 weeks that she was convinced she'd had a miscarriage. Went for scan following day to make sure everything was gone and there he was...swimming away quite happily! Its very unsettling but hopefully by the sound of your posts your feeling good and positive

Rubbish rubbish rubbish - af arrived this morning

Just to top things off, its a really painful one this time as well - just to really rub it in!!

GG The choc jezabel is made entirely by my own fair hands and is, if I may so myself, absolutely divine!! I laughed out loud at the thought of us all on HTLGN - I would love to go on there! Sadly the Gok tears were a result of af hormones, not beany ones though....bum (for want a better word!).

Tinks good to see you back!!

How did Buckyboys trip to the Drs go Bucky? Have my fingers crossed for the results.

Ei where on earth has your af got to?! Yoour high temps are sounding so good - am feeling very positive to you

JB hurrah for the high temps !!

How are you doing today MOB and Hatty???

Hope you're feeling ok today Mibbes

I'm off to drown my sorrows - felt awful this morning, so depressed and 'why me' but have pulled myself together and given myself a stern talking to.... Its kinda working! (just to add to the 'oh woe is me' - I was so hoping it would be bfp this month as is DH's 30th on Sunday and wanted to surprise him, instead he now has to put up with a hormonal wife, bless him!)

Anyway..... Apologies, rant over now!

GG I'm glad someone can understand me . Good on you being 'in it to win it' you are quite right to give it a shot,as it has been said before it only takes 1...
PnM so sorry the witch got you and esp given that you'd pinned hopes on a double celebration. You'll just have to take advantage of non-PG status and get legless . I really don't like to complain but > I miss wine already Have one (or5) for me
chilled thankyou so much for the reassuring post. Every time I hear someone else say similar it helps me relax that wee bit more. Also 2 of my (many ) PG books say it is common in first 12 weeks to bleed (as many as 1 in 3 have it). Will be on knicker-watch until Dec but at least it will take my mind off having a glass of wine... Thanks for asking after me ladies xx

Thanks Mibbes and CMama (sorry to have missed you out CMama , am far too self-involved this evening ). I'll only partake in the one glass Mibbes as I'm a complete light weight and one is all is takes - DH will prob find me slumped infront of the tv in a choc/wine induced fug later tonight

PnM oh poo!!! sorry AF got you hunny what a bitch!! i had high hopes for you aswell (methinks my psychic abilities are clouded by my lack of AF recently- im very preoccupied by it at the mo!!) or maybe they were a bit premature and they will build over the next few weeks into a BFP prediction followed by a RL BFP for you
GG nice to see you sorry you are having bother at work i have had absolutely no dreams whatsoever recently but i have a little list in my mind and i ticked 2 out of 3 off in the past 3 weeks (they ended sadly but still started iyswim) i am not in the habit of immediately revealing my predictions as i dont want to get peoples hopes up etc i have 2 names at the mo that keep popping into my head so who knows
hope everyone else is ok
