****October bus ready to depart****

OK I have just worked out that if my next cycle is the same length as this one was then I will actually be due 1st October if I get pg so rather than sitting at the back of the September bus I thought I might skip straight ahead to the next one lol.

Plenty of chocolate and biscuits ready for the journey

nymphadora · 20/01/2010 07:58

Was awake at 5 this am when dh kissed me goodbye, v worried about him, never seen him so stressed, dint think it's going well and he can't tell me anything. Am now making myself ill worrying about him. I never expected it to go anything other than straightforward so now I've gone to the other end worrying about how safe his job is.

Most of my friends work with him so I have no one to talk to about this either. So might just be worrying on here today.

randomimposter · 20/01/2010 08:08

hi nymph popped over from Sept to see how you were doing - sorry all so stressy at the mo.... Dunno if you're watching CBB but in the words of Ivana... it is what it is... Am willing that all will be fine for you.

HUGE bus BTW, and a grad already?

Good luck everyone.

Fairygodmother1 · 20/01/2010 08:50

nymph did you say it was OFSTED? We had them not long ago & it wasn't good news. I'm guessing he's higher up than a classroom teacher. I spoke to DH about how I thought it was going.

Yes it's bloody hard work now we've got so many changes (and prob the reason I'm finding it hard TTC) but the changes have been for the best looking back.

Sorry your feeling so stressed. As I said TTC doesn't help the stress levels.

best of luck

addictedtomn · 20/01/2010 09:21

nymph i just wish we could say something to make it all better, but words just dont do that do they. ofsted are a pain, its probably going fine but the stress of having them there everyday and breathing down his neck to see this that and the other is probably getting to him. (i used to be a childminder and 1 day was hard enough)

mornig all and welcome kawaiiko, i also thought that getting pregnant was easy, my school teachers and parents always said, if you dont use contraception, you will get pregnant well i'm not using contraception and i'm not pregnant now. how i wish i could go back and tell them they were wrong!

well i caved and took a test this morning it was negitive so just waiting for af to turn up now then i will be joining you at the back of the bus i think.

Eadwacer · 20/01/2010 09:46

nypmh I'm so sorry. Pals who are teachers get driven to the edge by OFSTED - and none of them are in especially high positions, where it's all worse.

FWIW I'm not sure that a not-too-great OFTSED report would threaten a job. It would need to be truly damning for that to happen - proper mismanagement and irresponsible running of the school etc. - and I imainge if things were that bad, you'd've known about it for months...

sure that's no consolation though. Hope you can stay calm - all this doesn't help the TTC does it?

Nanny01 · 20/01/2010 09:55

Fairygodmother1 · 20/01/2010 10:11

I agree with Eadwacer. If it's truely bad then it's the head in trouble. Your DH job should be safe. I know it's tough but hang in there. I'm sure it'll be over today or tomorrow. It's just the aftermath that is left to deal with, which will be targets to head towards. If the management are proactive then those will be met quickly.

All the best

Ah, thanks, stuffed. I keep popping back to see how you are all doing.

sparechange · 20/01/2010 10:30

Hi Nancy,
Sorry to hear that. There must be something in the air this week

My colleague has just been telling me how easy it was for her to get pregnant (she doesn't know I'm trying) and how she was disappointed she didn't get the chance to 'try' for longer as her DH was gearing himself up for shagging marathons!

She said they decided one day to give it a go, she stopped taking her pill that weekend, ov'd the next week and got pg.

I'm doing my very best 'oh wow, that sounds so easy' face while sobbing inside

Bessie123 · 20/01/2010 10:32

sparechange I think that's quite common, especially (I have noticed) with smug, uptight or generally annoying women.

Bessie123 · 20/01/2010 10:32

I was going to leave out my suggestion that you smack her in the face but what the hell, smack her in the face. That'll teach her to be smug.

sparechange · 20/01/2010 10:59

Bessie, I don't think she was doing it do be smug. She genuinely doesn't know I'm trying and I think it really was just that easy for her.

Doesn't stop me wanting to smack her though

nymphadora · 20/01/2010 11:11

fairygodmother he is the head

Fairygodmother1 · 20/01/2010 11:13

sparechange Smack her inside! Yep I hate women like that! They'll never understand how crumpled you are inside!
Keep smiling.

Fairygodmother1 · 20/01/2010 11:16

Nymph no wonder he's not telling you anything. I suggest a nice glass of wine for this occasion when he gets home. I'm sure he'll be fine. If he's working his butt off & is worried then I think he's a good head & will get through fine. How long they been there? Has he dropped any clues. No wonder he's so stressed!

I bet you are. Satisfactory would be better than the unmentionable. He doesn't sound lazy & he's prob feeling for his staff, which to me sounds like a very good head. I hope it's fantastic news as that would take the pressure off.
I'm a teacher at an SM school. The stress of that is not helping towards getting PG but I'm stuck there. I bet that this hasn't helped you situation either.
It's funny how work life has such an effect on private lives.
I don't think they get told the results still after 4pm today so I think you're gonna be sitting on tender hooks for a while.

nymphadora · 20/01/2010 11:36

Should have preliminary report tonight. Last time I was working there so knew something at the time but this is v difficult

nymphadora · 20/01/2010 11:41

SM school?

Fairygodmother1 · 20/01/2010 11:46

Special measures...we lost our head but their management skills were bad & we had complained to LEA whoi claimed that we had no right to go against the head, it was 'unprofessional'.
There were other issues, such as the school needed revamping as we've had an influx of new staff but still set in the old ways. There's def a breath of fresh air now in our school.
By the sounds of it your friends all work there & you have a close relationship with them so therefore they see your DH as an excellent head.
