TTC #4 - the noisy slightly unhinged section!

[Katonahottinroof]

Guys we need a new group! Wouldn't let me post in old one.

MrsDis I recognise him but can't for the life of me think of his name.

Someone spill!

scorpio, I expect that lots of things will hit home in a hard way re dates, ages etc. Not easy 4 u, espesh with being alone this weekend! Will be thinking of you...! You will find lots of support on this thread! Take care x

Scorpio it's so soon since you had your mc, it's not surprising that there are triggers that make you feel sad, be kind to yourself x

MrsD well done on getting that smear done!

Diege, hope your scan went well today.

DH took our boys to Brighton today adn I took DD to London to visit my Dad and Stepmum, had a lovely day. DH is now 3 wks into his redundancy , I hope something comes up soon. Keep your fingers crossed for us!!!!

Oh Scorpio I know how you feel, I thought I was fine after the mc in Dec but I went to dds dancing class a few weeks later and one of the Mums had her 12 week scan pictures and I couldn't bear it - it really surprised me how sad I felt

MrsD wd on your smear, I'm watching Jade Goody docu on living and it's so sad, I'm totally getting one done as soon as this mc is finished.. if it ever is!

I'm feeling really poorly, got a snotty nose, headache, weird pains in my fanjo area and am all hot. I think the temp is related to my cold and not the 'failing pregnancy' but I'll see how it goes. I'm on open access for the gynae ward so I can always pop in if the pains and stuff don't settle down.

Also I'm just so tired all the time, I have sore boobs, getting less sore verrryyy slowly but at least the nausea has gone I have the same level of hormones as a very early pregnant person so symptoms are getting milder.

I haven't had a period since December (mc) then the bleed 5 weeks ago so i'm just dying to get back to normal so I can try again. I wasn't sure if I'd be ready but this is taking its time so it's going to be another month at least before I can start.

Sorry I'm all me me at the minute Very few people in rl know whats going on so it's hard pretending to be fine when I'm not.
I am thinking about you lot esp BABYBLUE, you have done the hardest part physically but the waiting must be torture, sending you big hugs.

Babyblue - thinking of you, is it today that you get your prelim results?

Kat - good to hear that the pg symptoms are receeding for you, at least you know things are going in the right direction, but sorry to hear you not feeling well.

Scorpio - hope you feeling bit better today.

I am fine today I miss DH terribly though.

plus i am extra achuffed as did £100 tesco shop, but got it down to £70.71 with online vouchers & clubcard points! Fridge and cupboards are bursting now!

The tesco lady saw ds1 and Mimi and said i had little helpers, how was half term? i said i actually have 1 in between these two (he is away with dh) and she said oh! I only had one, i think youre either maternal or not, im not, we have our own lives, etc LOLOLOLOLOL

Me thinks lady doth protest too much

Its so quiet here. DH and ds2 away, ds1 at his dads, mimi in bed. Weird and very quiet. Gopign in town later to do bills so i get out of the house, lol.

oh and i am gearing for ovulating a little bit earlier than post birth cycles, but only by 2/3 days, so fine. Hoping the ewcm waits for DH....it should do. I'm pleased my body is playing ball.

Scorpio...pleased you're body is behaving itself again, must be a relief! It is weird when the house is quiet! Fully sympathise with you missing your DH, mine has worked away for the last 4 years and I'm still not used to it!

Heinz...fingers crossed that DH will get something soon....what was his last job?

Babyblue hope everything is ok. x

Kat I hope you feeling a bit better today, it's horrible being an 'ill mummy!' as well as having to deal with everything else you're going through....maybe you're getting it out the way early on in the year Feel free to have as many 'me' posts as you want, it needs to come out some how! (((hugs)))

Hello to Rainbow, Ruby, Diege, Twigs...(where are you??) and anyone I've missed! x

Having a low day and wondering if I'm 'doing the right thing...' with ttc, fed-up with my figure (self obsessed, sorry) and wish I could kick myself into action.....oh well good kick up the backside and that should sort me out

Mrs - consider yourself kicked, you are fine, I am definitely fatter than you, so we will just have to have a pact that once we both have our next/last baby in our arms we will both take action to get into shape then!

Scorpio - sorry you are missing dh, but good to hear that things are getting back to normal physically for you.

Twigs - where are you....... are you hiding with news or you need time away, or is the internet connection not working for you??!?!?!?

OK should get off the computer and go do some housework before dh gets home with ds.

hello ladies ,just thought i would pop back and see you all
scorpio glad you are getting back to normal body wise

baby blue ,rest up and fingers crossed for you

well my ante natal thread is quite a lonley place at the mo and i miss all you ladies

Second kick coming MRSD's way . I think body panics are totally normal, whatever your shape and size. They do seem to come when you are down though - hope you can get your enthusiasm back soon!
SCORPIO - agree with what others have said - you'll have good and bad days post-mc, and you have done so well up to now. Really glad your body is back to normal too!!
KAT, take care and keep an eye on those symptoms. Sure they're unrelated, but just a bit worried about infection as needed abs after my mc (though was ERPC). Sure all is well xx
Hello RAINBOW, TWIGS, HEINZ (keeping my fingers crossed for you and dh).
Had rubbish hosp appointment yesterday. Consultant wasn't there so had to see DR, who was so bad I'd laugh if it was something I was watching on TV. Absolutely hopeless, like she's walked off street!
Anyway, looking forward to spa weekend - going sat/sun, so hoping to relax and get some shopping done too!

OMG body panics! Tell me about it I was a flat stomached 6 ft lovely before I had dd2, just assumed the weight would drop off again and it never did.
Now I'm a slightly podgy pot bellied 6 foot scruff!!!
It's not so bad when I'm standing up but when I sit down I look like a proper porker!

Still, I'm gonna get preggers again v soon so just hand me the pizza please? I'll worry about it in a year or so

i have body panics too, even though im a size 8, i always feel fat.

At least you have your height KAT!! At 5.2 and a half if I out even a few pounds on I look 'dumpy'.
Know what you mean SCORPIO - I'm also a size 8 and while usually 'slim' have hang ups about overhang - hit my in my late twenties and so hard to get rid of once it's there (a warning to all you young uns from one not so young ).

I'm 5 9, so have good height too, can just see iaheb had some babies now, iyswim.

Thanks for the kicks girls, made me giggle Sorry for the start in 'body panics'....I too am 5 9, was a size 12 before dd4 and will get back there when I get my head round it...can't seem to whilst ttc I also have the height but that really isn't helping!! Oh well, anyone for a cookie......

another kick coming I have a constant body panic, I am down to a 14, but expect the rest will disappear once I am back cycling and no lnger feeding. I'm a shortarse 5'2" too so don't have the height to help spread it all either

think I've cracked the daytime beakers, next step is th night feeds and sleeping in a cot. right now, getting her to settle in the cot is a bigger challange, and I suspect both will happen together.... then

In the meantime, I've been making chocolate cake with the dcs, slice anyone?

oh me me me, I will have a piece of that chocolate cake Ready4. MMMMmmmm it's delicious!

Oh, me too please, I just adore chocolate cake, thanks very much, Ready.

Sorry, my lovely ladeez, have been away for a couple of days with no internet access. Will try to catch up with thread in a bit, but briefly, hope you are doing ok Baby, when do you get the results?

Hi Rainbow, is AF due tomorrow? any symptoms? My period due today, but no symptoms and not arrived yet - I guess my cycle could have been thrown out by the mc, don't feel preg, or particularly worried.

Will catch up soon, but nice to 'see' you all again x

Oh you lot are all skinny minnies!! Size frikkin 8??? Even when I was skin and bones I was still a 10/12!! Think I may have been a size 8 when I was 11

I'm a size 14 but have humongous bazookas so sometimes have to get bigger sizes for the top!!!

Just had a pizza feeling very fat

xx

Hi Kat, how are you feeling. Sorry to hear that everything is taking so long to get back to normal. SO frustrating for you x

(mmm, pizza sounds lovely - just had huge piggy chinese take away - friday night treat while lovely husband is away tonight)

OK so I am feeling a bit and that af showed up today. She was threatening yesterday, but looks like she is arriving properly now. I was so hopeful for this month, but at least it was not another early mc, was definitely not pg this time. I might just take a little while to whallow in my self=pity with some virtual chocolate cake here, if you can put up with me.

Kat - any news today from you, hopefully it is better news than me.

Kat - just to reassure you, you are not the largest of the group, I am at best a size 12/14, but currently 14/22, yep I have da bigga boobies too!!! Obviously not helped by breastfeeding, but always huge anyway.

Babyblue - did you get your initial results yet?

Big piece of choclolate cake coming your way rainbow!!! Sorry about af, it's a pain! Don't know when af will arrive for me, will just go on my original dates at the beginning of next month, although with early ovulation I suppose it might change.....

Good to 'see' you Twigs, had me worried any sign of af?

Babyblue...are you ok?

Hello theboob nice to 'see' you again!

Ready...it's a a bit of a challenge getting babies to settle! Mine went from the hammock to the cot at about 8 months and it took a little while, dd4 is definitely the worst! She sleeps wonderfully from 6pm until about 2am then she wakes lots until we get/give up at around 6am (withered emoticon). Good luck anyway!

Scorpio I hope you're ok and coping without DH...is he still away, how long? (sorry you've probably said )

Decided to find some 'will power' give up wheat/dairy for a while (help!) see if that helps!!

Hello to everyone else and hope you all have a good weekend!

RAINBOW, but here's to next month. You'll feel much better in a few days, but for now, yes wallowing and choccy sounds the way to go xxx
I'm off on spa weekend now - am meeting friend in town who has no idea where we're going (it's her birthday surprise) so hoping she likes it!
Love to all, and speak Sunday when I'm back.
(Oh and pretty close to dh accepting a slightly more unusal name for baby than Benjamin (which I still like but doesn;t come close to 'Felix' in the 'different' stakes )
Been thinking of you BABYBLUE - think you said you'd have early results back by Tues??

Diege - Benedict?

DH is away until Sunday, not long now!
