Emmsy's in weeble land....Where weeble's wobble but don't fall down!

[barbiebigpants]

Do you like our new home?...

Here's to another happy thread!

The fun, the laughter and the tears will get us through, and help the weeble stay forever upright

i is fine.....ha ha ha
Yeah book for next fri, im day off and can keep you company in the docs surgery!

Make sure you take a diary with dates of last af (over the past 6 months) temps and anything else..oh and demand a scan to see the follicles

Im sure you aint broke...it took me 10 months to fall pregnant again..i was back and forth the docs from month 6. It was only when i got over here that they took me seriously...........

ok - will book it for next week - maybe fri, will see Might have to be a weekday evening tho...

I have all of that info on Fertility friend.. so can just take it from there...

10 months is long time... I think I will explode if I have to wait that long.

2 of my friends (not people I actually see) on FB announced births this weekend..

Glad you is fine

Hello all! Its been quiet on here lately! Have been lurking vis pho but felt so rough not posted as glued to sofa/bed!

Iggy I know just how you feel hon but it will happen & I dont think you're broke for what its worth, but do understand cos after mc in jan & nothing happening each month I asked for a scan to be sure at beg of sept, as couldnt understand why after BD 10 nights & morns in a row & OPKs I was obsessing why it wasnt happening each month, I guess our bodies are ready when they are ready. As soon as I though f** it it did happen, so hold on to hope sweetie.. BIG hug for you xxxx

Glad to hear bean is a mini acrobat Barbie! Must be so reassuring, nice to meet your midwife too! Wierd isnt it? I never got to meet a midwife yet, hoping too this time around at 10 wks, you dont see yours til half way through yet Cupcake is fighting to get a scan but has midwife visit at home at 7wks Its a true postcode lottery isnt it?

Cupcake I agree, go private for reassurance if its the only way..

Mrskate glad Gracie was there for RL hand holding on your edd on sat, I was thinking of you, love Boris the bean btw!

Blue thank you so much it brought tears to my eyes that you would say a special prayer for us yest, youre such a sweetheart xxx

Curly more wet eyes at LO bouncing around to that song, thats so lovely & glad you are beleiving its all real slowly but surely!

Mermaid hows the head? You and Annie put us to shame, can just about muster strength to go shops at the mo!

Sabs great to hear from you hon, I lurve the name Saara its gorgeous as Im sure she is! Please post a pic on your profile!!! Hope the traumas of the hosp are fast fading & you are lost in head smelling & feeding!

Im struggling with real nausea, only had it this bad with my 3rd that got to 13wks so a good sign I know, also having wierd vivid (bit scarey) dreams, bleeding gums & total exhaustion fatigue Cant function much before 2/3pm so couldnt be at work, Im just rolling with it & giving in to it all to give this one the best chance poss. More symptoms than had with others except the 3rd, so as said taking it as a good sign & trying to stay positive. This time next week will have had the all important scan so wishing away the minutes right now. I work out ill be 6w on fri cos of long cycle but if was 28day cycle would be 6w tomorrow Ooooh waves of nausea still hitting me, cant even mention food in morn, had to spell out things to DH yest cos couldnt even say things like fat, or roast potatoes out loud without gagging! Everything stinks too thats a sick face! xxx

4ever thanks - you are lovely. Sorry about the sickness - but is also fab news

I really must stop moaning on here - I bore myself

Iggy Iggy never never stop talking about how you feel on here - it is NOT moaning, it is sharing, its the only place we have to do it, just cos Iv managed to get preg again it doesnt stop my memory from working & remembering how heartbreakingly frustrating & depressing it is to get to this stage again, & then WHEN you do get to this stage again, you will be sharing all your other worries & nervousness at scans/symptoms etc ect. I know what its like honey, we all do, thats why this site is special & we will all hold hands ALL the way.. DH asked what will the new mums do now, will they still post? I said they certainly will & are, & hopefully we'll all still be here discussing teenagers angst many years down the line!

4ever the more I lurk on here - the more obsessed I get - i am actually insane... My DH doesn't really get me being on here - he asked me incredulously why I don't speak to my RL friends about stuff... but they don't really want to talk about it.

Anyway - enough.

I drive myself NUTS I tell you

Hope you continue to feel sick, in the nicest possible way

Aw iggy; it is so hard to explain why we don't talk to RL friends like we do to MN friends... even my best friendwho is mega understanding and lets me talk about it I wouldn't tell some of the stuff I say on here... I guess it's knowing we've all been there.
Hun I echo what 4ever said too- I know I only had 4 AFs before getting pg again but it felt like forever and I was just so worried I was broked too cos I knew exactly when I was ovulating and bd'd loads.. it seriously isn't something wrong with you.
ow about trying some diet changes next month... I was literally all set to start a no-sugar, no-caffeine, & lots of supplements diet if this month wasn't the one. Apparently that helps loads with progesterone production.

annie & 4ever I wish we could go private but really can't justify spending £100 when dh is about to be out of work I'll let you know how I get on battling the epu!

4ever in a nice way, I'm soooo glad your symptoms are so strong come on sticky 4everbean!! I am praying loads for you too.

sabs glad you are home at last and hope Saara is being cooed over lots! Gonna update the list actually with her name babylioncub must have a name by now too!

Hi everyone.

Iggy Don't ever feel bad about spilling out your feelings on here. We're all here for you, I promise. Going to the docs could just be enough to put your mind at rest and make it all happen so I vote you should go. Not every woman has symptoms in the 2ww when pg so you never know.

Cupcake I'd try a crying-stressy fit with the EPU first. Isn't there a study that says reassuring the mother decreases the chance of MC?? We all know you COULD survive until 12 weeks, but we don't think you should have to.

4ever Great symptoms. Hope you feel yuck for the next six weeks Enjoy taking it easy and sleep and induldge yourself as much as you like. None of us are even remotely jealous of the sleeping to the afternoon malarkey

Barbie I meant to ask, what all did your mum bring over? I sent DH up the loft yesterday to look for a snowsuit for my nephew. He brought down a box of tiny baby stuff and my stoomach did a huge excited somersault...

Blue How's things with you? How far are you now? Can't be too long until you go on mat leave.

Annie same to you - it must be really real now.

Hi to Sabs Vjay and Lion Hope the gorgeous babies are being as good as they are adorable.

Moon you've been quite lately. Is all ok?

Mermaid Hello Mrshangover Nice to see you back on form. Have you missed anything yet or is your mummy organiser keeping the house of Mermaid, Merman and Merchild running smoothly?

LBM Hi. What's new with you? You've also been pretty quite recently.

Big waves to Gracie Kate Hoping Baking* Fifisboys and anyone else I've missed and a special hug for MLS in case the lure of MN has brought you back to lurking status.

My quiet weekend ended up with me clearing out DD's clothes and toys and making dinner for my parents. Seems I'm incapable of sitting with my feet up even though I'm constantly exhausted Ah well, I stop on Friday for a week so surely by then I'll sit down.

Curly Hi. Hope all is well with you and the sickness is finally easing.

Evening all!

Welcome home sabs and welcome to the lovely Saara. Sadly you will need to change your name again - SabsSaggyPants has a nice ring to it! Or maybe mummySabs is better!! or even SaarasMummy Iggy meltdowns are normal and expected, although going commando is quite liberating once you get your head round it! My dh doesn't get it either

Neeko yes I do seem to be back with a vengance at the mo! Shouldn't be as much too busy but still.

Cupcake Get your head buried in the sand and the time will fly!

Finally, you lot are making me feel old! Not only do I hit 40 in a couple of weeks ( just before Joules ) but it's also my 10th wedding anniversary on Friday!!! Sadly,it's apparently our tin anniversary - it takes for ever to get anything of value. To get gold is 50 years - I think it should come with a castle, knighthood and full staff for managing that long!!

lol LBM at your anniversary wishes. At least you've progressed from paper. I've negotiated an eternity ring for mine (in almost 3 years.) Go on -there's some negotiating time left and you can give your DH a tin hat to protect his head when you want to bash him for not understanding meltdowns!

hello lovely ladies

iggy i share your frustrations, but please hang on in there, our time will come - i have to tell myself this every day just to get through it. you certainly arent broked, your body will soon let you know when its ready again.

sabs welcome home and hello to another cyber baby sounds like you had a rough ride, so hope things will be a little calmer for you now (or as much as they can be!)

4ever great news that you feel so sick, in the nicest possible way of course, heres hoping for a sticky bean for you

anyone know if hoping and jools are ok?

curly hello lovely lady, and neeko and all the other big/medium panters.

just checking the list to see who may have the next bfp, a potential few in the next week or so

had a big shopping session with my sister over the weekend, loads of new stuff and an empty purse i am hoping they wont fit me for long though, trying to go with sods law. no real news from me, avidly watching ignoring any possible pg symptoms

Well I've just peeked at baby Saara on FB and she is simply divine . Beautiful face, lots of black hair, gorgeous!

Iggy and Moon - you are not broken, just healing that's all. Hoping the rule of sod applies Moon re: your shopping trip. Alot of us gave up caffeine/took up suplements/put our DH's on supplements. during the ttc madness plus acupuncture, reflexology, massage, anything that spoils you and makes you relaxed...

Neeko - you must learn to put your feet up missy! Lovely to hear you got a wee excited flip when you saw the baby clothes again . Fingers crossed I finish up eight weeks this Friday (4th Dec) so by my calculations, working my three day week with some hols means I only have 21 days to work . Starting to think i'm going to go early tho' so going to buy birthing ball in a few weeks to start bouncing as baby is back to back just now and lying back on the couch of an evening is the worst position to be in for preventing back to back. Have you got your 20-week scan date through yet?

4ever - yay! that you're feeling sick, its so reassuring although awful at the same time. You keep yourself under that cotton wool OK?

LOL LBM at your tin anniversary. It's my 40th (birthday not anniversary) in two years and I'd really love a Tag watch from DH. Will wait til our 10th before I angle for eternity ring, I'm not greedy , only five years to go...

and love to all xx

Hi Moon Shopping trip ust have done you good as you sound cheery. Hope you bought something slinky I'm sure it won't be long for you and Iggy Blue No news on 20 week scan yet but have 16 week appt on Wednesday. Can you hear my knees knocking from over your way? 21 days to work sounds fab. Hope it flies in. I have about 20 weeks but more almost 4 of that is taken up with school holidays - yay!
I asked DH to look for my birthing ball when he was up the loft yesterday but we've moved house since I last used it and it has disappeared. Or maybe he didn't look that hard. Think that calls for a trip to Argos.

Being on all fours is supposed to help move baby from back to back. What better excuse do you need to scrub your kitchen floor?!

Good morning

Alex is feeding as i type so please excuse the mistakes

Welcome home sabs and enjoy, it does go mighty fast, Alex is 5 weeks today and I can't believe it

lion how are you doing? Have you named your lo yet?

Big waves to you all, gotta go as he keeps popping off the boob and is getting frusrated!

cupcake I know, I guess I could try supplements... It might help if i stop drinking I did consider buying this supplement - just the women's one:

Supplement

You should do a sponsored something (book read?!) and get enough money for a private scan - I'll sponsor you!

neeko I know - but I had symptoms last time (even if I was in denial about them at the time!) felt sick for a week before testing and had terrible stabbing pains on right side (was convinced I had appendicitis!)... so complete lack makes me think is nothing happening... Exciting about the baby stuff coming down from loft! What happens at 16 week appt - do you get a scan?

moon I know - I agree - to be honest the ups and downs come and go, so I should just hold on and realise that if I feel bad one day, I'll probably feel better the next! Shopping sounds like it was good!

blue I might try something else next month, but I worry that the more I obsess and do things to help, the worse it will make it! I don't even know what a birthing ball is but sounds exciting?!

vjay impressed by the typing/ feeding combo

hello everyone else xx

hi

Iggy every pregnancy is different - particularly if it's a different flavour.

My bf (the one who had my EDD) gave birth to an 8lb 11oz baby boy today. All well. going to visit them at the hospital tonight.

Hi Blue Having had a back to back baby, good luck with the birthing ball! Mine refused to move despite scrubbing floors and lots of weeding!

Sadly negotiating an eternity ring is not going to happen - I manage our bank accounts and there is no spare cash for that!

neeko good luck with the midwife tomorrow - you should get to hear the heartbeat, shouldn't you? Hurrah for your friend too - enjoy cuddling the little man!

somebody slap me please! i can't be having pg symptoms yet can i? i must be imagining them. been having cramps down one side since the weekend which go down my leg, my boobs are tingly, my mouth tastes funny, and i am ravenous but of course this is just af on her way right?

sorry for the selfish post

moon you are on cd 24 aren't you, so it could well be pg symptoms, I hope so , how long is your cycle? and when will you test?

my cycle since mcs is between 31-33 days, so its a bit early to be having symptoms isnt it? i feel a bit funny in my stomach now cuz i hadnt actually considered the testing bit! surely nothing would show up for a week yet anyway? omg now im all a fluster, going back to sticking head in the sand!

sorry ladies another quickie one from me. Can someone check to see if they can see the photo ive posted of Saara here on MN?

Hope everyone is well....Saara is bit of a night owl, but im so blessed that as Im at my mums I have so much help, my mum and sister even wake up in the night for her.

Again please forgive me for yet another selfish post ...promise to make time out in between visitors and catching up on sleep to post properly

awww sabs she is beautiful loving the baby grow too! Saara looks like she could be a handful from her cheeky face

don't worry about not posting properly, we all understand you are probably exhausted and still trying to settle into a routine. as long as we know you are both ok, and we get photos now and then. thank you for letting us peek

Sabs-Hello lovely, yes picture of the lovely Saara is now on your profile page, shes beautiful! Hope you well.

Moon-I had pregnancy symptoms a full 7 days before my AF was due, keeping fingers tightly crossed for you

Waves to iggy Blue Cupcake VJay LBM neeko 4ever and everyone else

Sabs saara looks gorgeous, hope you getting lots if time to relax and enjoy her with all your family around you xx

Moon symptoms sound positive fingers crossed for a bfp for you this month

Mad busy here back soon love to all xxxx
