jools you and me both...sorry to hear about your BFN but it may just be too early. sending sticky vibes your way your symptoms sound promising

Yesterday utterly convinced I was pg (temp of 37.20 degrees!) but now had a good night's sleep the ultra high temp, dizziness, nausea, weird cravings have gone. and sore boobs are attributed to wieght gain and tiny bra

still cd 20 today, spotting should start over weekend if AF is coming so watch this space...

bakingqueen · 11/09/2009 10:54

MLS - so sorry to hear about scan hoping that next weeks scan will give you the good news you so deserve. Sending you a huge hug and to let you know am thinking of you x

Hoping - hoping you get through today lots of love to you too

Jools - like everyone else I think this could be your month got my fingers crossed

lots of love to everyone else x

4everhopeful · 11/09/2009 10:59

Morning girls.. Its my dads birthday & was the first thing I thought when I woke up, the 2nd was poor poor MLS & prayers that beanie is ok.. Sadly can imagine what headf* turmoil you are in right now if you are lurking my love.. The girls are so right, wish we could pop round make you a cuppa feed you choc & let you give us soggy shoulders - Im sending so much love, prayers & strength your way, cant stop thinking about you... I was flicking through the radio & Pink Floyd come on - turned it right up cos my dad was a bit of an old hippy I love the song & have found it relevent in recent years since he died, and very much through the mc's - its 'Comfortably Numb' I was listening today & thinking of you too MLS these are the lyrics I found it poignant.. Lyrics

Also sending a massive hug & handhold to Hoping on your edd today sweetheart... Its so important to remember, its a strange time. What alot of edds this week with me tues, Moon yest & you today.. Our babies maybe be friends up there, that would be nice to think...

Moon sorry to hear you felt a little alone yest, you know what though? I think all anniversarys/edd are like that. Even if I was in a room full of people who all knew my dad on his anniversary, I would still feel alone. Think thats the nature of these sad things. I think its cos our loved one, be it baby or whoever, is not with us, so therefore we are bound to feel alone cos we feel the loss...

Jools my darlin, this strange - pre test am I arent I headf* is enough to turn us cuckoo! Your not mad, its horrid that preg symptoms & AF are similar though so im never too sure myself what im feeling. I pray & hope that its wrong & you are, but if you arent there is still next month, the month after, the month after that, even next year.. Getting my head into that mode of thinking & no longer feeling the deadline of its GOT to be next month, has made life more bearable this month.. We cant out ourselves through that crashing feeling each month cos of lines on a stick, its not fair to ourselves. I did want to ask your advice actually - does your ov pain sometimes hurt so bad you cant even think about BD? Mine was well bad last night so didnt! The last few months that would of been alien to avoid it, but really am thinking - what will be will be...

Bravebarbiebigpants hope the bleedings stopped now? This blummin low lying placenta thing is awful, my bf & sil had it.. well done you for being a soldier! One of mermaids goldstars!

Big waves to the rest of you cos am filling the thread up! As you can tell Im feeling a bit deep profound & spiritual this morning! I had some wierd dreams, lights flying round the sky, & an angel pushing a big witch out of the sky strange, but woke up feeling really calm & bathed in light. feel like my dad is right here with me. I am wearing a bright yellow top for him & the sun is shining... I will keep praying that it shines down on MLS too.... xxxxxxxxx

mermaidspurse · 11/09/2009 11:08

4ever I have that song as an ear worm for the rest of the day now. So lovely to hear you all upbeat and sunny yellow.

bakingQueen am so hoping that your clomid has done the trick for youx

4everhopeful · 11/09/2009 12:13

Hello mermaid you cross posting confused lovely! Glad I have given you an earworm! Not heard that expression before but like it Love that tune & loads of there stuff, im gonna dig out my dads record collection & get some blasts from the past this afternoon 1hr to go, then my rearranged hairdressers apt.. A workmate asked what Id be doing for dads birthday (everyone remembers cos of 9/11, which was my poor dads 50th!) I casually said 'oh we're taking him for a chinese' . Funny slip of the tongue, or was it?!

barbiebigpants · 11/09/2009 12:30

computer still not 100%

mls no words...just thoughts, best wishes and lots of hugs from me x

jools i agree with mermaid i think you tested too early...after waiting til day 33 for my bfp i think you are still in the running.

lovely 4ever my thoughts are with you today, glad the sun is shinning for you and your dad...

mermaid enjoys your bbq...its still too hot here to indulge but i do miss a good bit of bbq meat!

hoping how are you my love? hope this day isnt too bad for you, thinking of you also.

Thanks for all your concerns, bleeding has in fact stopped..i didnt do anything about it, no doctors, no tears, nothing...guess im slowly getting used the idea its one of those things

Of for a swim to cool down, hopefully internet will sort itself out and ill be back soon..

Love to all you other emmsy's angels xxx

Sorry AuntieMermaid - I was obviously being naughty and not listening

Lots of hopeful people around now, maybe we'll have a collection of good news soon.

Love the earworm concept - have never heard that one before

Hoping - I am certain your friend's comment was a premonition

4Ever - thinking of you today, with your Dad looking in on high to see how you are doing on such a significant anniversary and, yes, going for chinese with you perhaps.

Mermaid - is it getting chilly with no pants on, now that Autumn is here ?

mermaidspurse · 11/09/2009 13:06

cheeky chops I am planning to go straight into longjohns.

barbie that is so good that it has stopped - how brave you have been, am rather shocked and very impressed.x

bluesatinsash · 11/09/2009 13:26

at you mermaid in your longjohns...

4ever - Happy Birthday to your Dad up above. at you wearing a birght yellow t-shirt in his honour. I LOVE Comfortably Numb by the floyd, man. 'Wish You Were Here' is awesome too...

Annie - sorry I wasn't on the PC yesterday as looking after DS...

Barbie - glad the bleeding has stopped and you're accepting its just the placenta misbehaving. Although different reasons I also got used to bleeding when I did every day for five weeks from week 5 to 10, although only got used to it 5 scans later... .

MLS - you are constantly in my thoughts. Really hope your DD is providing some distraction during the hell that is waiting..

Hoping - fingers crossed!

Jools - really hope you've tested too early. As 4ever says its such a Head Fk as AF symptoms and BFP symptoms can be so similar...

Cupcake - if you're lurking, sending masses of babydust your way...

Its actually sunny up here again so fit flops are getting possibly their last outing before woolly tights and Uggs are dusted off...

Love to All xxx

Joolsiam · 11/09/2009 13:31

Ooh - would you recommend Fit Flops ?

I keep studying my boobs

They have seriously not ever been so big apart from the early days of last year's pregnancy (Sept 18th is anniversary of that BFP)

I think I'm just going to go and lock myself in a darkened room and rock quietly for a couple of days

bluesatinsash · 11/09/2009 13:59

They are mega comfy if not very sexy and do nothing for you if you are heavy of ankle! Also think they really helped with my SPD...

Darkened room with cold flannel on brow for you missy and stop poking your boobs

cupcakefairy · 11/09/2009 18:08

Knock knock...Hi girls. Well dh brought home a First Response for me today after a BFN on an ebay cheapie despite sky high temps...

and it's a BFP

Not sure how to feel right now. Excited & happy of course, but also so apprehensive cos of dh's job and the possibility of having to relocate Feeling teeny bit hopeful though as with the last pg had brown spotting from day af due but nothing like that so far.

Thanks for all your lovely support over the last few days - you're all just brilliant. Sabs and buddha sorry you're in same position with redundancy- it really is horrible.

MLS lots of hairstrokes for you over the next week.

BlueMoon1981 · 11/09/2009 18:45

cupcake huge congrats to you!

no news from me yet, still no af, but am not hopeful as don't have any real symptoms apart from i've had cramps for a whole week, and the last 2 times i've had really achy boobs. not sure what my cycle is doing yet either, but its not uncommon for me to get to cd 33/34 on occasions, so will wait a few more days yet....

have had the most awful day, after 1 hours sleep last night and a dreaded phonecall at 1am. my boss sent me home in the afternoon and forbade (is that right neeko miss?!) me to take any work with me! its very complicated and i can't explain on here, but been very teary and stressed out today

sorry to not to post to everyone, but hope you all ok. big hugs to mls

SabsBigPants · 11/09/2009 18:46

congrats cupcake sooo happy for you

sabs waves to everyone else with a special hug for 4ever...

CurlyBigPants · 11/09/2009 19:39

Yayyyyyyy it's finally cupcake month!!!! So so pleased for you hun now let's have some more bfps. Jools Iggy moon and baking please form an orderly queue

moon I'm worried about you. Are you ok?

Thinking of you MLS and hoping you can somehow distract yourself for next week xxx

On phone so won't post to everyone but massive hugs all round

bluesatinsash · 11/09/2009 20:14

Oh Cupcake - I'm so delighted for you . I had a feeling it was your turn this month . Please try not to fret about DH's work, your priority is you and your bean, that's all that matters, work will sort itself out...

Big massive hug .

Moon - worried about you too....

Let's hope its another run of three BFPs....

BuddhaBellyBigPants · 11/09/2009 20:20

Cupcake Congratulations so pleased for you, that time out obviously suited you
Jools Still have everything crossed for you! x
Barbie Extremely proud of the way you have handled your latest worry, well done positive you
Moon Sorry to hear things aren't good for you at the moment, sending you a hair stroke

Neeko · 11/09/2009 20:49

Cupcake Said it already but yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! You deserve this so much and I'm "chuffed to the knickers for you" as my lovely gran would have said

Jools put the tests away. Your monthly meltdown day falls on a Tuesday so you're not due to test until Monday and there'll be no meltdown this month.

4ever sorry I wasn't on earlier. Th blooming kids wanted teaching today Already know you're coping but sending you a hug anyway.

Moon Hope you're ok. Please send round your email details so we can look after you properly in times like this. Sending some chocolate top hats your way.

Annie hope the party goes well tomorrow.

Mermaid Aren't longjohns the underwear version of the krypton factor?!? Bit unfair on your DH after a couple of months of commando.

Barbie pleased to hear bleeding has stopped. have you bought a new bikini yet?

MLS Don't quit yet. we're all still believing in your bean. Big hug - another one.

Big waves to everyone else. Fingers crossed for a peaceful and sunny weekend and doubly crossed for some more BFPs.

Neeko · 11/09/2009 20:51

Don't know how I did THAT!

bakingqueen · 11/09/2009 22:13

Congratulations cupcake so pleased to hear your news

AF got me this afternoon means I can start the 2nd month of clomid on Sunday!
