VJaybigpants · 07/04/2009 16:21

Oh ladies you will have such a shock when I eventually post a bump picture I will have some serious weight loss to do, I still haven't lost all the weight from ds and he's 6 , but do you know what?????????? I don't really care!

GracieGirl · 07/04/2009 16:21

4ever is it time to storm that doctors surgery yet??? We're much scarier than Charlie's Angels!!

4everhopeful · 07/04/2009 16:28

Gracie, Barbie get that hair flicked girls - lets go get 'em! Still not heard!

Leaving work now to go homebase to buy wallpaper so no doubt he will try calling when im in there and have no service! However if he waits til tomorrow I have my 'redundancy avoiding reapply for my own job that i've done for 12 yrs one to one' at 9am so chances are he'll call in the middle of that! Oh what a week!

Thank you for all the hold handing and distracting and smiles you have given me today girls! Your halo's are truly shining! Love ya xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

MummyLovesSadie · 07/04/2009 17:37

Oh my goodness what a busy thread today.

Any news Forever? Loving everyone's pics, Yeah Barbie I too have been wondering how to get a pic on the first page.

I've been reading MN avidly every day but have felt a bit too down to post. DH has been so moody for the last few days & we tried to bd last night but he wasn't 'up' to it. Feeling v stressed by it all. Might have to get the herbal viagra out again tonight.

Neeko glad you have made it over here.

GG how are your bruises.... did you finally manage to get your bra off??!

I now have started this months collection of opk's & have three (negative ones) on my windowsill, all dated present & correct!

MummyLovesSadie · 07/04/2009 18:15

Yikes, even Gareth Gates is a dad now. Isn't he about 14?

GracieGirl · 07/04/2009 18:15

Hello MLS - yes we've been very talkative today!

My bruises are a lot better thanks, I still look a state but they don't hurt as much anymore. Sorry to hear you've been feeling down. You're very organised with your OPK's, I think I'll start on day 8 or 9 and keep them hidden from my DH as I think he'll get a bit stressed if he knows he has to perform to order .

Just off to my night shift, have a good evening everyone.

Molliemooma · 07/04/2009 18:29

Apologies for the me post, I got a BFP yesterday but before you shout at me Barbie for not posting then, I started spotting 4 hrs later and fell apart at work, I had what I thought was an implantation bleed on Friday/Sat nothing Sunday tested yesterday (2 days early) and got a BFP, when I came home from work I lay on the sofa feeling very sorry for myself did another HPT got another +ve. Spotting stopped about 7pm last night and nothing since, did another test this morning and got the quickest darkest line I have every had with any of my pg's.
Not sure what to think at the moment, taking it hour by hour really, feeling happy, scared, well I don't need to go on as we all know what it's like or going to be like. Lots of hand holding required

mermaidspurse · 07/04/2009 18:50

cant stop rushing in mollieflashing stars and sticky sticky thoughts.
sit down, rest and be very, very gentle on yourself The thick line is a very good sign.xxx
4ever I go out all day and nadda - trebble pants.
waves to all.

anniecam38 · 07/04/2009 19:48

Evening ladies,so much for my 'restful' day off work, ive never sat down since this morning, the bloody cat didnt help matters by deciding to pee on my hall carpet, its the first time shes done it,and it better be the last as well! So out with the Vax it was this afternoon.

Mollie-Big Congrats to you!!. Hopefully the spotting is just your bean burrowing itself a little home for the next 36 weeks.

4Ever-you must be climbing up the wall now with all this waiting,you,ve been expecting a call from them since this morning havent you? I hope you have heard by the time i type this post, and that the results dont come back as inconclusive. Lovely profile pics by the way.

Loved your pics as well Gracie and VJay.
I,d already had a peek at yours a few weeks ago Barbie and you look fab, by the way im on FB so i,ll friend request you if that ok?

Waves to Neeko Curlee Blue LBS MLS mermaid Sabs Kate and anyone else ive missed.

MummyLovesSadie · 07/04/2009 20:15

Mollie big yay & lots of sticky thoughts coming your way. I can imagine how you must be absolutely crapping it now but it is good gooooooood news!

GG pre m/c I started opk'ing at about day 11 but now (with my super-paranoia about errrr EVERYTHING!) I don't want to leave it any later than when my af finishes just in case. Also dh seems to need a few days to rev up! Feeling much better now after successful bd practice a short while ago!

kate030284 · 07/04/2009 20:31

hi all thank you for your kind welcomes.

hi neeko it 4 week till wedding i cant wait.
im a bit worried tho still not had af its been 5 week since mc i dont want af on wedding day lol.

littlebellsmum · 07/04/2009 20:36

Wow - three pages of chat to ctach up on! And now I've got no time to post!
for Mollies BFP, for 4 evers doctors and for all those gorgeous pictures!

Hi Kate - how many weeks to the wedding and good to see you here. In line with Jools theory, you clearly don't want to be pregnant as morning sickness on the big day could be a problem, as well as squeezing sore boobs into a tight dress, not to mention the champagne that you will need to be sipping!

Got to go, rl is really getting in the way of gossiping.

Hello to all the rest of the lovely ladies

Joolsiam · 07/04/2009 20:41

Oooh - so much to catch up with Lots of lovely virtual hand holding going on I see, and I love the pics Vjay and GG - lovely to see who we are talking to

Lionstar - tomorrow is the day isn't it ? thinking of you.

Mollie - hooray Fingers crossed the spotting is nothing and we have the beginnings of another Emmsys success story

I convinced myself I had no symptoms this afternoon, then had real abdo pains in the gym - had to stop doing my situps cos it felt wierd. I now have cramping and wind - so am now obsessing about potentially having done some damage to a burrowing bean

anniecam38 · 07/04/2009 20:48

Try not to worry Jools, a potential burying bean will be well protected and wont have come to no harm. How many days now till AF due? Your symptoms do sound promising.

VJaybigpants · 07/04/2009 21:01

mollie just take it easy hun, am thinking of you. I had spotting from weeks 5 through to 9 with this lo and my stress levels were very high to say the least, I just took it at a day at a time xxxxx

littlebellsmum · 07/04/2009 21:25

LittleBellsMum is not symptom spotting - I repeat, LittleBellsMum is NOT symptom spotting.
So why do my boobs feel so tender and I'm sure that I felt slightly quesy this evening.

But I repeat again LittleBellsMum is not symptom spotting ( well maybe just a little!!)

Only another 13 days untill AF due - and LittleBellsMum also isn't doing dates or a countdown , oh, no not me!!

Methinks LittleBellsMum is losing the plot just ever so slightly...

MummyLovesSadie · 07/04/2009 21:26

Jools with my dd I had absolutely agonising af-type pain from week before af due until about 3 weeks after I had a +ive hpt. I was convinced I was about to come on until I did the test. Now realise they were implantation type pains. It would take a hell of a lot of physical self abuse (as in being punched/kicked/stabbed in the stomach) to do any kind of harm to a new bean.

Vjay big-up on the reassurance with spotting in pregnancy. I'm really scared about spotting again if & when I get pregnant.... as we all must be. Is it actually possibly to relax & enjoy a pregnancy after a mc????
