Angel2008 · 22/04/2008 09:47

And Carolyn so sorry about AF - chin up.

Oh, {{hugs}} obviously required today especially for CE having AF visiting unexpectedly. {{hugs}} Also to soosy desperately in need of some uterine thickening. Hope results are better on Weds. {{hugs}}

willmouse-are kittens fun? Luckily I had no children when I got the boy as he took up all of my time and DH's who didn't even want him. Have fun!

Heartmum-12 weeks is such a milestone. Brill news and good luck with your scan.

ceebee-lol at DH forgetting to put a nappy on DS.

juanitad-how lovely having a new kitchen. Ours is only 8 years old but I still like dreaming when I walk round B&Q and Wickes.

Angel-hope you haven't got a test in your handbag. Having said that, if I ever get to the stage of testing I will be weeing on sticks a week before AF due as I am a terrible child that can't wait.

Don't know when we will actually get round to TTC as DH keeps saying he wants some practise in before we start and as I was cross with him then AF is due in a week so doesn't give many days left.

Lost another 1.5 lb at WW so now 5 lb under goal so if I lose any more I will have to pay again. I'm not even trying to lose weight. If I lose any more I will have to stuff my face before getting weighed next Monday to keep my leader friend happy. I even had some wine at the weekend, first time in over 2 weeks. Today I can feel my monthly migraine starting so no wine for me tonight.

Right, am waffling so will wave to everyone I have missed

LOL HC - I did have a spare test in my bag but went for brown shoes today ... hence swapped all my work stuff into brown bag (I know I'm anal) and left test at home in my other bag. Still no AF though.

I think you should tell DH he has had enough "practice" - honestly, men! I'm still not properly speaking to my P. I'm leaving off the D for the time being

Well done with the weight loss by the way!

MrsPuddleduck · 22/04/2008 11:23

Hi all.

I have missed a couple of days and amd getting really confused so you will all have to forgive me.

Is Carolyn and ChocolateEclair the same person (I am not great with names and faces so this is really confusing me!). What is Angus Cactus for????

H2mJ - glad you are better.

Soosy - hope the uterine lining shows up! Will you just wait again and see what happens next month?

Angel -resist the testing ('tis very expensive if nothing else!).

Hi to everyone else

Kitten has been named George by Ds1 (lightening would have been more appropriate!). He is behaving himself so far but I can't help but think it is only a matter of time. I am off to get some spray to discourage him from scratching my sofa and some catnip to encourage him to scratch his post

littlemissdaisy · 22/04/2008 11:34

Hi, I am going to come and join you guys, I got a BFP on Saturday followed by spotting and a massive bleed yesterday.I am now CD1 On third cycle of clomid, for me getting pregnant isn't the problem,now the clomid has got me ovulating again,it seems to be staying preganant,I have been preganat three times now since 2006 each ending in MC by 8 weeks, it was very early this time. I am now waiting for the fertility clinic to ring me to discuss what happens next.

MrsPuddleduck · 22/04/2008 11:52

Hi Littlemissdaisy.

Sorry to hear about AF turning up. I hope you get some positive news from the fertility clinic.

You are most welcome in our thread! You will get lots of support here, nothing is ever tmi and the conversation is not limited to ttc! We are all very friendly and as you have probably noticed if you do get a BFP you are not allowed to leave! (which makes us sound like a bunch of stalkers LOL!!).

Feel free to add yourself to the list!

Angel2008 · 22/04/2008 12:05

Hi Littlemissdaisy

Hope you're okay - as Willmouse (or Saint Willmouse as we call her) says, you are very welcome here and you will get lots of support (and baby dust!)

HumphreysCorner · 22/04/2008 12:05

Oh hi littlemissdaisy. That is sad news to get a BFP swiftly followed by AF. Have heard that there are a few things that the Fertility Clinics can do to help. As willmouse said, you can talk about anything on here and like the song Hotel California 'you can never leave'.

Hi littlemissdaisy - so sorry to hear your news . Hopefully the clinic will be able to help.

Hope we can help too - it is a very supportive thread.

Add yourself to the list and join in!

ceebee74 · 22/04/2008 12:48

Hi all

Littlemissdaisy - welcome to our thread. Sorry about your AF etc but I am sure you may get some answers at the clinic. Everyone is so friendly on here so I hope you stick around

HC - is the thought of forking out for WW again not enough to get you reaching for the chocolate?

Willmouse - George is a lovely name for the kitten - hope the spray/catnip works!

Angel - I too have to have matching handbags and shoes. I swop the contents round every night depending on what I am wearing the next day Stay away from the test aswell!

FGS, am sat at work next to a radiator that is switched on - have got the window open but I am so hot! Our heating is controlled centrally aswell and they are refusing to switch it off -

Had to pack a sobbing DS off to nursery today - when I was getting dressed, he was trying to give me my pyjamas instead and pulling my top saying 'off off'. He clearly didn't want to go to nursery and obviously associates mummy in her pj's as 'staying at home' days

Anyway, should go and do some work

littlemissdaisy · 22/04/2008 12:49

Thanks you guys, how do I add myself to the list??

majormoo · 22/04/2008 12:51

Hi Littlemissdaisy -a similar thing happened to me a couple of months ago-BFP then a BFN/bleeding a week later. Very confusing when one minute you are pregnant and the next you are not. Welcome anyway and I hope you find us supportive on here.

Soosy really hope that lining is thickening.

Oh Angel fingers crossed. And for you too Bellie

CE hope you feel OK today.

Willmouse hope the kitten is behaving.

Hello everyone else

Lovely sunny day here today so met a friend in the park with DS. When it is dark/cold/raining etc I often think I would love to be back in the world of work reading my emails, drinking coffee, eating lunch, going to the toilet alone-oh the list goes on! However, today a bit of 'The Wright Stuff' and 'Phil and Fern' this morning, following by lovely sunny walk and park, reminds me I am lucky to be able to stay at home for a while!

majormoo · 22/04/2008 12:54

crossed posts Ceebee-did not mean to go on about the fact that you are working for a living while I am being a slummy mummy watching daytime TV!

ceebee74 · 22/04/2008 12:58

Majormoo - lol! Am slightly of you going for walks in the park and watching daytime tv but if I stay at home, that is not an option anyway as DS demands all of my attention I actually come to work for a break!!

Littlemissdaisy - if you highlight and copy it from the last message it appears on and then paste it into the message box and add yourself (hope that makes sense).

Soosy - forgot to say, hope the uterine lining is thickening as we speak - will send you loads and loads of vibes.

ChocolateEclair · 22/04/2008 16:41

hello girls


here is some extra thick lining medicine for you soosy! xx

Littlemissdaisy - recognise you from another thread about the 2ww. very sorry to hear what has happened. You are in good company on here, and are most welcome.

Waves to everyone else

Well the strangest thing has happened! AF kind of started last night, 2 days early, then woke up this morning and it had stopped! I was fully expecting it to start up again today but NOTHING! I did a cheapie ebay pg test which was negative. What's going on?

Oh well, I'm guessing that AF will arrive tomorrow as expected, OR (Fingers crossed tightly) that last night was implantation???
Time will tell I guess

ChocolateEclair · 22/04/2008 17:04

oh and yes, Willmouse

I am Carolyn and Choclate Eclair....I just fancied being a little more anoymous! Sorry for the confusion

And Agnus Castus is a herbal remedy that regulates female hormones. It can help your cycle more regular and get you ov'ing at the right time. I am going to take it to try to lengthen my luteal phase!

majormoo · 22/04/2008 18:37

ChocolateEclair-well that is what happened to Ceebee I seem to remember so fingers crossed

Bellie · 22/04/2008 19:11

CE - didn't it happen to ceebee and look how pg she is now!! Fingers crossed for you xx

Good luck for tomorrow soosy xx

Wow HC - good position to be in with the weight! It must be nice knowing that you need to have that chocolate!!

Ceebee - poor you having to tear ds away!
My problem is getting dd to even say goodbye

Still a bit of brown discharge (tmi sorry) and lots of af type pains. Not really due until cd 30 at earliest and cd 28 today .

ceebee74 · 22/04/2008 19:40

CE - as the others have said, that is exactly what happened to me. Small amount of blood which I assumed was start of AF and then nothing - it was about a week later that I got a BFP so I guess you will just have to be patient - will keep everything crossed for you that it was an implantation bleed

soosy · 22/04/2008 20:12

Hmmm Bellie could you and CE be in a similar position?

Hi Littlemissdaisy, Sorry to hear about what has happened. As you can see we are all ttc in different ways.

Thank you for all the endometrium dust, will no tomorrow if it has been successful.

Love the name George Willmouse (DS was going to be George but he wasn't a chubby baby so he wasn't!)

Congrats HC on the weight loss, Tell Dh that he can do his apprenticeship on the job iyswim!

Ceebee, ds didn't want to go to school either, he has a cold and his teacher told me he was v tearful. I came out of school saying I just wanted you Mummy, I nearly cried!

Angel good thing you had the other bag! The only time I had matching bag and shoes was my going away outfit on my wedding day and that was 10½ years ago! I mainly wear jeans and converse nowadays and when I put skirt on people ask where I am going!

Have a good evening I am off to watch Holby City, got this think about hospitals.....

ChocolateEclair · 22/04/2008 20:16

ooo I'm all excited again now (but with suitable restraint type emotion!)

I'm trying to work out dates n stuff and failing miserably. ov sticks had me ovulating about 8-10 days ago so could be possible!

bellie - good luck and hope af doesn't show her ugly face!

HC - brilliant weight loss! OMG! You can legitimately eat rubbish and drink wine now! Now go get some practice in before you start ttc! LOL. Practice?!?!? How long have you been married! he he he

majormoo - i'm loving the idea of being a 'slummy mummy' as you put it! I will play with the children as well you understand but trashy daytime tv would be indeed preferable to work for a while!

ceebee - your ds sounds cool trying to get you in your pj's. awww!

Fingers crossed for Angel still (and keep away from the tests!)

a bit more for Soosy for tomorrow *
