MJIM, no, that makes sense. At least once I thought that was what I might have heard and told myself that it was the baby had moved and I could hear myself before the baby moved back, but maybe it wasn't.

Knax, good luck with the testing!

Willmouse, you will never guess what I got in the post today? The most a*se licking letter of apology from Miss Dixon herself . I bet my notes actually state on the somewhere that I have made an official complaint about the trust before, so I bet she was worried I would not make light of my threat. Or she didn't want me to go to the press, seeing as there is already a rather fetching story about Stafford hospital on the front of our local paper again this week. Still, I would say it is a result HM2J 1 - OB 0

Hooray HM2J good for you, I went private with DS, he had taken a long time and we had already spent an enormous amount of money on IVF so a little more on private care seemed churlish. I have to say it was fab and should I get pg again I would spend the money again, it is the sort of care you should get on the NHS but don't.

MJIM glad everything ok with the wriggler! Was DS1 a big baby, as they say they get bigger the more you have!

Testing time good luck girls.

DS wants attention so I am off, Embryo transfer 12 noon tomorrow, so a collective shower of babydust then would not go a miss and in fact be very welcome!

Love to you all

H2Mj - well done! Hopefully if she has managed to get a letter to you she has also sent that fax!

Soosy - good luck for tomorrow!

Mjim - I was told that you measure differently depending on how the baby is lying. The charts are all based on the baby being head down in the correct position. If they are diagonal or sideways on the measurement itsn't worth the paper it's written on! I had a few extra scans because they thought DS2 was going to be large. In the end he was 7lb 13oz born at 39 weeks. DS1 was 8lb 5oz.

Have a lovely weekend ladies, I will be back on Sunday night or Monday if not. Keep your fingers crossed for some nice weather for us! Try not to miss me too much! LOL!

I will be thinking of you Soosy at 12 tomorrow (whilst 'supervising' DP pitching tent !). Really really hope it goes well for you. What happens after tomorrow? Do you wait a certain time then do pg test?

Good luck to Mandy and Knax for testing!!!! (would love to come back to some BFPs!)

CE xx

Soosy really hope it is successful tomorrow

HM2J well done for successful complaining

Mandy enjoy your trip away and hope it is successful! When we TTC DD I did not really mention it too much to friends. However, one of them found some folic acid in our bathroom cupboard, I started going to the gym more and not having big nights out, so it was not a huge surprise to most of them.

CE enjoy camping-hope you get some sunshine.

Shame the Indiana Jones film wasn't good. The review I read said it was pretty mediocre too. I was really looking forward to seeing it too (ha-like I ever go to the cinema to see grown up films)

Ceebee hope you have enjoyed your day off shopping.

Babydrip enjoy your gardening. Hope you are successful as well.

I am still in a bad mood today. Not really about anything in particular, but just feeling really low. I think it is really because the scan is on Tuesday and it is such a stressful time for me. Whilst DH seems to have forgotten completely. Yesterday when I asked whether he was planning to go into the office or work from home on Tuesday, he looked at me blankly, not remembering at all that we had the scan in the afternoon. Men!

bless you lovely ladies for all your good luck wishes with the testing!!!
I'm planning to hold off until tomorrow morning but have this bad omen AF will arrive tomorrow, so i don't feel optimistic. Was also wondering if I should try to make myself wait to test til sat if she hasn't arrived tomorrow.
Have a party on sat so if i'm not pg will commiserate with lots of wine!! Was wondering if it might be good luck to book a taxi but am secretly hoping will have to drive due to no AF by then!
feel a bit under pressure that I'm building it all up now when i know i'm going to get Af in next couple of days...
sorry to be so self-obsessed. Love to you all.

knax you are not self obsessed-we are all the same when wondering if this is our month or not. I think you should wait til Saturday if you can.

Book the taxi Knax!

Majormoo Everything will be fine, but I know how you feel. Big Hug.

MJIM Have a lovely time with your friends.

CE I think you a v brave camping I can't do it, I wish I could. I have a 2ww after tomorrow, well I suppose it's really 12 days.

Thank you for the dust, it is carefully stashed away!

Sx

Just got a BFP!!!!!!!!
I think the luck from everyone on this lovely thread helped!!
Lots of luck to all the ladies in waiting!!! And Hi to everyone else.
knax xxx
p.s. didn't have any symptoms BTW (for research purposes) except a mild cramping that i thought was AF on way

Knax - woohoo! Congratulations!!! You will stick around won't you?

Wow Knax, congratulations! You must stick around to hel make this thread successful for everyone else, lol! Oh, and for what it's worth, I had NO symptoms at all pre testing either.

Soosy, thinking of you today, will try my best to get on at 12 to sprinkle my baby dust!

CE, have a lovely time camping, I hope your morning sickness eases up this weekend.

Majormoo, just sending some hugs, I can't imagine how stressful the wait for the NT is. I will be holding you in my thoughts.

I finally had my first dream about baby....it was a girl and I think she was called Amanda which is not a name on our list (damn Britain's got talent, it has alot to answer for, lol!). Baby was a cutie, looked like a cross between DS's at about 6 or 7 months, chunkier than ds2, but less hair than ds1, still blonde & straight haired though! Only 13 days until we know if the dream is right.

Heads up Soosy, hope this babydust helps!

Soosy - this is just for you

extra-special babydust*

Thanks for congrats!!
Lots of babydust to Soosy and everyone else!

Thanks for the baby dust, esp HM2J were you in the room that was amazing timing!

Congratulations Knax, see you should always book the taxi!

Post later

Sx

LOL! I tried my best Soosy!

congratulation knax

Soosy really hope this works out for you

I am feeling much brighter-helped by the fact I found the elusive memory card on the seat of the buggy and the fact it is lovely and sunny today. Plus we've had to pay the balance for our holiday-well obviously that in itself isn't good-but it makes it seem not far away

hope everyone is enjoying their weekend

MJIM sorry to hear DS unwell, DS had a bug like that, with really high temps, I don't think they are long lived, so hopefully it will be over soon.

Thanks for all the baby dust, I have had spotting since yesterday evening, never had it after a ET before, so obviously worried. It really is very light, more like browny pink mucus, so have decided to sit tight. I had some cramping after the transfer on the way home, it only lasted a few minutes, so I am hoping the doctor has scratched my cervix, and nothing more scary.

I hope you all had a good weekend, Glad to hear you found the memory card majormoo and your holiday is coming up soon. We supposed to exchange contracts on Monday, then I'll feel like we are really going to move!

Love S x

HI to everyone.

Congratulations to Knax!!!!!!!! This really is a sucessful thread!

Soosy - I hope that the spotting is a good sign. I have my fingers crossed for you!!

MJIM - hope DS is better today. DS2 has had a cold, passed it to me and now DS1 has it as well .

Well, I am still spotting here, but it is getting less and less. My boobs aren't sore any more so I think it probably was hormonal and everying has balanced itself out. Let's hope so anyway.

Spent most of yesterday in the garden. DH is now on one of two trips to the tip having cleared the rubbish from the shed and alleyway.

Microwave has broken we are not having much luck with applicances at the moment. Nevermind I am secretly quite glad as we've had it years and it's huge. Hopefully we can get a small one now.

Hope everyone had a good weekend,

Hi to HC - hope you have had a good holiday!

Thanks Willmouse! Sorry to hear doesn't seem to be positive this time - keeping everything crossed for you for next time!
Went out last night but was driving so had excuse for suspicious not drinking. Determined not to let anyone in RL know until after scan (but have told my parents).Lots of luck to all, here's to some more BFP!
