Goodness, no 20 week? Here we get one, you must be way up the line I got a private 4d scan with dd, was lovely!

VJaybigpants · 20/04/2009 19:23

Just done a another search for scamper, she was last on on the 17th March, she was 14 weeks pg then and worried about her symptoms dissapearing, and scorpio replied to her saying it was probably just hormones settling down, wise lady . That's it, I do hope she's alright, and she's just so busy in rl xxxxxx

Just back from my Body Balance class

Had a major minor freakout when I found the teeniest amount of pink spotting when wiping earlier, but gave myself a talking to and spent the meditation session of the class imagining a very sticky bean.

kate030284 · 20/04/2009 21:23

i hoping and praying for a sticky for u jools xxx

kate030284 · 20/04/2009 21:24

lol i forgot to type bean lol xxxx

GracieGirl · 20/04/2009 21:57

Hoping and praying for a sticky Bean for Jools and for AF to get a move on for Kate. (if we can be specific can *Kate's AF arrive on thurday so she can ovulate on her wedding night?! - or is that a bit picky!)

anniecam38 · 20/04/2009 21:57

Evening ladies, hope everyone well.

Scorpio-Congrats on the BFP, great news.

Kate-Glad you had great hen night, im surprised you didnt have a hangover, were you being sensible?

Gracie-Well done you for fitting in some BD while you were on nights, the sacrifices us girls make eh? Lol at your DH going to work for a rest, poor man!!

Barbie-Well done on getting the Mac job. You know whats going to happen now dont you? Sods law says you will get your BFP not long after you start work!

Jools I had pink spotting at 5 weeks with DS.I too am waking up during the night and cant get back to sleep, so annoying.

VJay-How exciting your 20 week scan! I bet you cant wait, with it being private they will spend time until they find out the sex , where as with a NHS scan they dont bother looking if its not that obvious.

BakingQueen-youve done well getting your dissertation done.
are you on your 2ww now as well?

Big hellos to everyone else, bed is calling me, this is a late night for me!

kate030284 · 20/04/2009 22:06

thanks annie yeah i was semi sober lol.

gracie thank for coming a walk with me i had a great time walking dolly the collie.
guess u havent gone to see dh then lol

vjay hope scan goes well and u can see what you having is you want to know that is xxx

GracieGirl · 20/04/2009 22:16

No not yet Kate, he'll think I'm completely mad!! (i guess he knows that already being married to me!) Kate is referring to me whingeing at her this evening that I've gone to all the effort of BD'ing 3 times during night shifts and I've not ovulated yet. I think I'll ovulate tomorrow so not sure if I've missed the boat. DH not back till the weekend. He's on nights at the moment and I was wondering whether to drive over to see him tomorrow to seduce irritate him with some more BDing. Bearing in mind I'll have zero chance of any BDing when he's on nights, there probably isn't any point.

kate030284 · 20/04/2009 22:19

we did have a good chat /moan about other halfs lol my dp soon to be dh says he to tired and stressed with work to bd anyway no af yet so what the point of wasting energy lol

littlebellsmum · 20/04/2009 22:35

Can you believe it, not a sniff of a job for weeks, got offered one this week and then got a call today from the nail spa (an upmarket nail spa) asking me to go and meet them today as they have a management role i might be interseted in! So im going to go and see what they can offer and hopefully if i get it ill be able to choose the best one to suit me! Im leaving really early today so i dont have another panick attack!

Morning ladies! This working malarkey is rubbish - don't they realise I have lots of irtual friendships to maintain?? I was naughty and did quite a bit of lurking at work yesterday, but shouldn't really post from there as they are wathing what you do. The kids are in school today anyway (yesterday was an inservice) so I'll actually have to teach rather than lurk.
Thanks for all your lovely messages yesterday - you lot are the best!
There's quite a lot of us on the 2ww now and with this thread being so lucky we're sure to have more good news soon.
Jools Try to rel;ax hun. I know it's easier said than done. Sending you sticky thoughts.
Barbie you're being headhunted - wow! Hope int goes well an you get to choose.
Gracie LOL at you stalking husband for a BD , but know I'd do the same.
MLS have you caved yet?
LBM Hope BDing went well
Scorpio Congrats again - so exciting!
Kate Not long now. Still no sign of AF?
Better actually get to work so big non-MN hugs to all. Sorry for not posting to everyone individually. I'll lurk at lunch

Joolsiam · 21/04/2009 07:32

Thanks Barbie - will have a look later

Got to log on and do a bit of work before I go to see the GP at 9.10. Just did another test with FMU - to prove I am PG before I see her !! Blardy conception indicator thingie still says 1 - 2 weeks since conception so I shall mention it to her.

Boobs are growing and I'm getting bloated now, so things are progressing - I just can't be anything but pessimistic at the mo, which is probably my way of coping / preparing for disappointment ...

Back later to catch up - but good news on being in demand in Dubai and, Neeko - get yourself a Blackberry or an iPhone so you can catch up with MNet without work getting in the way - how very dare they

Neeko · 21/04/2009 07:35

LOL Jools I'll certainly consider your suggestion!
Meant to say good luck to Vjay for Saturday and give annie a big wave. Hope you're getting over the tiredness now.

ScorpiowithabigS · 21/04/2009 09:10

I want facebook friends!

Stephanie Croxton, the one facing sideways. there are only 2 of us i think anyway!

Jools - good luck at GP. We are going on thursday to request an early scan for 7-8 weeks. They did say last time....if not we will go privately. I need to know!

I have the tired whoozy thing, but my breasts arent sore? I'm scared.

ScorpiowithabigS · 21/04/2009 09:12

Jools - don't worry about the test too much, i think those tests are the devils work! The level of hcg can vary daily and from wee to wee - some women find SMU better than FMU. I refuse to buy anymore tests as x2 yesterday were darker than control, and i dont want to be comparing colours of lines!

DH is getting used to it and sent me a lovely text just have to keep quiet in RL!

ScorpiowithabigS · 21/04/2009 09:13

Also - me again

DH wants me to stop thai boxing until i'm 14 or so weeks, he is scared. What do you all think? I have only been going 6 weeks though.But love it!

MummyLovesSadie · 21/04/2009 09:15

Feeling today as started my usual 20/21 day bright red bleed, I just don't understand why this has happened every month since dd was born. I told my gp about it who said its probably my body getting back to normal, I'm not convinced. This also happened in Jan from day 20 for 5 days & then I had a bfp. Can't help thinking that I might not have had mc if I hadn't had that 5 days of bleeding at the beginning. Also thinking that if I do happen to be pg now I will probably mc as I've had the bleeding this morning.

Sorry to harp on.

Scorpio big congrats to you, its very good news.

ScorpiowithabigS · 21/04/2009 09:16

MLS - how old is dd or how long has your period returned? I think a few months is excusable but not much longer iyswim. I totally understand why you are angry!

ScorpiowithabigS · 21/04/2009 09:17
