Afternoon ladies, its Friday .

Hi monkeybum I've never had spotting mid-cycle so not sure... Your DS is gorgeous by the way, love that photo of him victorious at pooh sticks

Baby - my first AF after 'natural' mc last Sept was very heavy and long (18 bloody days) and I do think it was due to not having had ERPC think my womb was all over the place. Fingers crossed it will settle for next month (or not if you play your cards right .

oooh neeko - my fingers and everything else is crossed...

anniecam - doubly at your (.)(.) size - double DD to E!! I'm lucky if I fill a 'B' cup and only went up to 'C' with DS even whilst breastfeeding - harrumph!

Jools lovely to hear your broodiness is going up a notch .

Gracie - good luck tomorrow! Let the force be with you .

Vjay - will let you know when we plan to come up your way, I could sneek off for a wee cuppa with you!

MLS - sorry to hear your under the weather, another early night for you OK?

Well I'm a whole 4 weeks today - big wows. Only 36 to go - aaaargh! Oh and I've got my outfit ready for Kate's hen do - I'll be designated driver .

Joolsiam · 17/04/2009 13:09

Blue - not only the broodiness going up a notch, but I've been seasick all morning, think my boobs are finally about to grow into their C cup and the entire house stinks, especially the fridge !

I can't believe I was talking about no symptoms yesterday and today I'm scared to leave the house cos I feel so sick - karma I think

MLS - sounds like you need a very relaxing weekend to recover

Monkey - yes, I'd read elsewhere about upping water intake and had to do it anyway for the diet I am on (2.5 litres minimum per day) I am certain that helped

bluesatinsash · 17/04/2009 13:17

yay! (?) re: sickness kicking in Jools - get those ginger biscuits out!

  • water theory could be right as I force 2 litres down me every day even if it kills me .

right lunch over, back to work...

VJaybigpants · 17/04/2009 13:31

jools the sickness sounds good, and the house stinking, all good too, all positive signs

blue would love to have a sneaky cuppa with you

mls go and catch some zzzzzzzzz's and hope you feel better later x

MummyLovesSadie · 17/04/2009 13:48

Hey check this out. It's an online pregnancy test, you answer some questions & it tells you if you are likely to be pregnant or not. Its probably rubbish but a great way to while away 2 minutes!

Neeko · 17/04/2009 14:21

Hi. Thanks for all your lovely messages. I'm going to try and wean myself off MN for a few hours days because while I REALLY appreciate the suport from you all, I think I may be using you to feed my obsession!I'll check in at some point over the weekend and will definitely update you if I have any news. Hope you all have a great weekend.Take care.
P.S. Excessive tiredness MLS???

MummyLovesSadie · 17/04/2009 15:05

No don't go away..... COME BACK!!!!!!!!

Who else am I going to compare phantom symptoms with???? (I really do have excessive tiredness though!)

barbie1 · 17/04/2009 15:08

kate030284 · 17/04/2009 15:57

thank mls that means a lot love ya all xxxx

mermaidspurse · 17/04/2009 18:01

I am so proud I made it nearly a whole day
It's the weekend the sun is shinning in Cornwall, I have a nice bottle of red(already opened) practising for kates virtual hen nite of course.
So you all have a spot on weekend, I will cross fingers for neeko mls and tell all tubby and soon to be tubbies to take it easy.

littlebellsmum · 17/04/2009 20:32

MLS - excessive tiredness, sounds like a non symptom to me, especially as you are on the 2ww

Neeko - your head is now truely messed with, lovely lady!

Babyincorner - not being good at the abbreviations, I think I'm now cd5 ( af started on Sunday)

I've really got to go - getting some serious abuse from dh about mm and need to save some time for Kates Hen party. It's years since I've been to one and so, I'm looking forward to it.

Should we get some pink T-shirts made up?

Going to get the cava out now...

MummyLovesSadie · 17/04/2009 20:45

LBM you are on cd 6, yay 1 day closer to ov!

I'll get the pink cowboy hats.

littlebellsmum · 17/04/2009 21:18

Thanks MLS - one day less drinking !!!

Now, what else do we need for a hen night? Who is booking the stripogram?

Got to the be the policeman, I think - a doctor might not be appropriate

MummyLovesSadie · 17/04/2009 21:24

Oooh don't forget the 'L' plates & flashing deely-boppers. Shall we book a limo?

littlebellsmum · 17/04/2009 22:16

Fab idea - how many seat do we need and are we going traditional or the 4wd version. Obviously living in Surrey , we wil prefer the 4wd tractor!!

Have you managed to buy the " just married" kit yet ( crap sex toys, headache pills and condoms - sorry, scratch the condoms and add ov kits!!)?

GracieGirl · 18/04/2009 08:18

Morning! Home from work, busy shift, I'm knackered, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

MummyLovesSadie · 18/04/2009 08:44

GG go to bed at once you must conserve your energy.

Neeko · 18/04/2009 08:49

OK I'm officially an addict - and I love it!!
Good luck today GG MLS any more symptoms?
My boobs seem a little fuller...

bakingqueen · 18/04/2009 09:09

Good morning ladies just a quick hello, cold feeling a bit better but still a lempsip and tissue dependant. Getting very stressed as currently written 0 out of 4500 words so far and due in on Tuesday , sit down to do it and my mind wanders onto other things! If I had to write the daour hen nigt mn thing on mc and ttc would have written it by now! Do have a quick question if anyone can help af would be due tomorrow if cycle same as pre mc but have no signs yet that I have ovulated anyone else had this? Sorry not had chance to send you all a message am going to go and sit in the study now and have a small panic attack before starting again

Hope you have a great hen night kate loving the idea of a virtual hen party on mn!

Have a great day all of you xx

Neeko · 18/04/2009 09:16

Morning Bakingqueen Can't help you on the ov question but from past experience of writing MANY essays I've found it helps if you just write something. What I mean is don't feel you need to start with the introduction. Start with any point you are sure about and go back later and write tha stuff that comes before. I think mentally it just helps to have a couple of hundered words on your page even if you cut them out later. Good luck!

kate030284 · 18/04/2009 10:27

morning girls my hen night sounds amazing i cant wait !!!!!!!!!!!!!

doozerhead · 18/04/2009 10:38

Morning all,

thanks sabs for the tip re using notepad, this is much better than my previous attempts at trying to be memory man!

Really looking forward to Kate's virtual hen night! And Kate have a fab time tonight at the RL event! You really deserve it x

Bakingqueen good luck with the 4500 words - you can do it! - once you get going it'll be no probs - I am just the same though, it's amazing how tempting even a spot of housework can be sometimes!!Re 1st AF after mc, I had my 1st AF exactly 28 days after ERPC and it completely took me by suprise because I had no PM sysmptoms at all - normally I am grumpy, bloaty with v sore chest for 3-4 days beforehand. Still didn't get my normal symptoms with 2nd AF either - i think i'm ov-ing again because of my temping but I wish I would get back to normal!!

Neeko, MLS - can i join you on the symptom spotting?! - from my temping I think I ovulated on Tues, so it is way too early (isn't it?) to have any actual symptoms... but I did feel queasy when I woke up this moorning . Sadly (.)(.) not at all sore,despide my incesant prodding to check! (Must remember not to do this when out of the house...)

Good luck this morning GG.

LBM - I also get a bit of abuse from dh re MN - little does he realise that if it weren't for this forum his wife would be climbing the walls so he should in fact be very grateful!

barbie - hope you have a great weekend! Lol re the Hello Kitty bucket and spade, bet you made some great sandcastles!

Really glad everything's going well with all the lovely ladies with big pants and pants that are soon to be growing! Lion i got a bit teary reading your post re fidget - so lovely

Monkeybumsmum - i have had mid-cycle bleeding before in tiny amounts when i had really bad thrush (oooouch!) Other than that if i get any spotting it's usually towards the end of my cycle, but no idea what causes it. That's prob not much help, sorry - i'm sure it'll be nothing to worry about but you could always see what the doc thinks just for reassurance?

Babyinacorner - my first AF after mc was heavier and more painful than usual too so i think it's probably normal. Really crap, but normal!

4ever - so pleased for you with the test results - roll on May 1st!

really sorry if i've missed anyone. hope everyone has a lovely day - the sun is shining here, so that's a good start
