Ok, feel a bit scared actually starting the new thread but here we are, for however long (or short) our time here may be.

Off you go ladies. Welcome () one and all.

Hmmmmm....I may have over-egged my height...will need to bring desk to stand on if he's that tall. Dammit.

Well, it has to be sorted and you're doing the right thing.

Thread pet duties to include:

  • Thread pet dance to be performed daily (GLB demonstrating daily dance on desk - wiggle hips, do a bit of thrusting of pelvis, try moonwalk, fall off desk)
  • Daily sausage report - suggest sausage has a Facebook page to manage status updates
  • Thread pet to provide all cake, drinks and chocolates for the thread ladies (Thread pet must provide appropriate drinks for appropriate times - no tea/coffee after 6pm, no vodka cocktails before 6pm)

Sign him up!!

Mrs. G thought you were posting Mr. G's info there for a few lines... Guy (work guy) sounds useless and immature with no idea how to treat a lady.

He probably has a very, very small penis, too.

Still not come up with too many ideas for thread pet - does he do tricks (except with sausage )? Waiting for inspiration from others.

A straaaaange and mysterious thing has happened in the Buffy household in the past couple of days. I have become possessed of a weird zen-like calm. I can cope with anything - I even started the car today (sounds crap I know but It. Will. NEVER. Start. Unless dh plays with it for HOURS. (No sex comments please) Frankly, I'm a bit frightened of the thing, and avoid it wherever possible) and went for a walk. And then i did some tummy exercises(!?!)
This is really weird. This time last month I was a raging, and i do mean raging, ball of hormonal horrors. Emotions up, emotions down, aaaallllll over the shop. And this weekend I was cross and upset by bro and sil but didn't get all unneccesary. And now I've turned into frickin' ObiWan. Dh says he hopes it goes on forever, I don't feel like my usual bundle of nerves at ALL. I've even stopped symptom-spotting, and the wait until Day Whatever doesn't seem to bother me any more.

I am very VERY confused.

So best maharishi thoughts to all... pass out the love and biscuits...

Unbuffy · 17/03/2010 18:55

Sausage facebook? Does that mean... photos...

I also suggest head massage (NOT SAUSAGE DAMMIT) and backrubs.

And telling jokes

Muser · 17/03/2010 19:15

Just wanted to say welcome to bigmuther, so very sorry about Charlie, I can't imagine what you must be going through.

MrsG feel free to ask me HCG questions as much as you like. Hopefully I'll be able to answer a few. On the bleeding, I had a bleed last week, fairly light for a couple of days. Didn't take me to 0 on the HCG but I had a massive drop. Tis a good sign.

And now to the results. Well, I didn't manage to break the 100 barrier, but I was just outside at 109, down from 289. Nurse says I should be officially Not Pregnant next week. And month 1 of my 3 month wait is over.

MrsGazebo · 17/03/2010 19:18

Awwww GLB Mr.G said he'd have to respectfully decline, can he be a part time pet?
Sausage updates - check
Falling off desk - check
Chocolates and cocktails will be left at the door - check
Virtual Bacon Butties and Tea on a Sunday morning - check

He said that he can't bake/dance/wiggle.
It is against everything he stands for.

Buffy no tricks to speak of but he's a fast learner
Head massages No chance
Back rubs under duress.

He is very funny and witty so jokes are in the check list.
He's just said that I can't turn him on
(I can! )
and off and he's not a performing monkey

He's not being very co-operative tonight, I've told him that if he doesn't come up with suggestions and agree on what he will do I'll take pics when he's asleep and post them on here

Some people eh?
And I thought he'd jump at the opportunity to be a slave to our cause.

Can we get Spike from Buffy in?
Or Johnny Depp?
Or Huey from The FLC's
I bet they'd love to be our pet

MrsGazebo · 17/03/2010 19:21

Thanks Muser
Yay on the levels. It's been a long month ain't it!

Allthe8s · 17/03/2010 19:26

good news muser

Allthe8s · 17/03/2010 19:28

MrsG you are cracking me up......

Muser · 17/03/2010 19:28

It feels like a year MrsG! I seriously hope next time everything goes the way it's meant to. I don't think I can cope with another loss.

liahgen66 · 17/03/2010 19:37

Hi all

Haven't been on for a while, to be honest, have nothing positive to say so seems better to stay away really

mrsG good to see you back

muser good that you will be officailly not preggers next week, but at last. only 2 mths to go.

bigmutha I'm so pleased you told us about little Charlie, a lovely name. Take it easy on yourself and your lovely man, we are here on and off most of the time.

MrsGazebo · 17/03/2010 19:47

Hey Liah Good to see you too

Icedlemonmuffin · 17/03/2010 20:19

Hello everyone, Bigmutha words don't really help but thinking about you.

Mrs G sausage gate has got me hooked , loving it!
Mr G should have his own blog telling us all about his adventures with his sausage,(bit nosy) but does sausage have a name?

Pollyanna · 17/03/2010 21:03

Bigmuther I'm really sorry about Charlie
Hope everyone else's swi is going productively!

I don't think I am ovulating this month again - no cm, no horniness, no temp increase, no other signs. it's a real pain especially since I am forcing myself to swi the whole time.

And also I feel so tired still - I am about 6 weeks post-mc I think, but still feel awful. How long is this going to last?

HappyGirl1 · 17/03/2010 22:10

pollyanna im the same as u, i feel horrible the last 2 days, dont know whats up with me at all

clareanna · 18/03/2010 03:01

Hi liah hope you feel more posItive soon- sending you cake and happy thoughts

Goodluckbear · 18/03/2010 09:11

Hey Polly and Happy,

I think it does take quite a while to get anywhere near to normal - in fact, I think I remember the weekend when I "turned the corner" so to speak, and it was close enough to 8 weeks post ERPC. It's so frustrating when you want to try to move forward and your body doesn't seem to be playing along....lots of nice bubble baths and massages maybe, and lots of sleeping!! I also pampered myself with spa type treatments, and even did a meditation class which (despite my snort of derision) was actually good and relaxing.

VivClicquot · 18/03/2010 09:45

Morning all xxx

If MrG wants to job-share the thread pet role, there's a guy in my office who I'd like to do it. Don't get me wrong. I love my husband beyond words and feel like the luckiest woman in the world to have him. But officeboy looks like he should be the sixth member of Westlife. Think Irish. Think boyish good looks. Think

AlbaDeTamble · 18/03/2010 11:43

can someone slap me please....

I managed to get lots of blood tests done to check for cause of mc (1st mc, but I'm getting on a bit, so time most definitely not on my side) had them done 2 weeks ago, and called this morning for results receptionist told me all normal.

I should be happy, jumping about enthusiastically ready to try again... but just feel flat...

I think I wanted to find something, to put me back in control, to be able to 'do something' to make sure it doesn't happen again...

I'll be fine soon, starting to feel a bit positive already that the hormone ones all fine, so I'm not perimenopausal yet at least, so my chances are still good....

it was just bad luck. There's nothing you can do about bad luck, right, just hope it doesn't happen again...?

AlbaDeTamble · 18/03/2010 11:45

Unbuffy whatever you're taking, please share... I want some zen-like calm too please!

wannabeamum · 18/03/2010 12:28

Eeek just eaten a crunchie.. in RL !! Never going to be slim again at this rate. 1 x gym visit a week does not = slim wannabe.

BIGMUTHER - I am so very sorry for your loss.

I think could be about to make an apperane, ive got a headache, feel teary and ggenerally in a bit of a grump. Im so silly, but was hoping that I would fall PG again straight after the MC but on a positive note I know it means I can start trying properly again soon, assuming this is and not just my body playing mean games.

Hope everyone else is in a better mood than me!xx

HappyGirl1 · 18/03/2010 12:52

Wannabeamum - same here! only been to gym once this week and sitting here having a bag of crisps in RL! Not good at all..

How many days are you since MC? I'm 21.. so will be doing a preg test next week.. i like you was naively hoping to get preg straight after MC - having random symptoms but could just as easily be symptoms of RTD - well pretty sure they are symptoms of RTD next week

Allthe8s · 18/03/2010 13:00

Afternoon all!

Alba your feelings are totally understandable, you kind of think if theres a reason then perhaps it can be fixed, whereas just bad luck can't be fixed. On a positive note all is well which is FAB news On the up now x

Wannabeamum you are doing great with 1 gym visit a week! Just have more swi or swoi!

Hope everyone else is feeling ok today.....anyone with BFP???? I am starting to symptoms spot now, not good I swore I wouldn't do this to myself.

hippychick66 · 18/03/2010 13:27

alba I know what you mean but honestly that is fab news. Everything is fine with your body, it was just not meant to be with that embryo.

I'm off to consultant tomorrow and I hope I get told all is ok as well. Us old bird can still do it!!!

Sorry, hope you don't mind me including you there .

I think when you have had time to let the info sink in you'll be glad there is nothing wrong and you don't have to wait for them to 'fix' it.

I am only just starting to get my head around the fact that my little one just didn't make it - nothing more nothing less. Lots of hippy hugs to you and to everyone feeling down. xxx

AlbaDeTamble · 18/03/2010 13:41

thank you Allthe8s and hippychick -- don't know what came over me. I am pulling myself together now and realising that actually I'm really lucky! Still a good chance of another baby, and as an old bird (no, don't mind at all Hippy) that is really fab.

You're both very kind, but I really did deserve the slap!

Good luck tomorrow with the consultant Hippy. Passing on the good luck vibes to you...

And trying to remember everyone else's news, there's been a lot of catching up to do from just a day, and lots of mental notes to reply to people, but just got so distracted with the thread pet theme! good to see you back here MrsG

wannabe, happy, I've only been to the gym once in the past year -- feel better about yourselves, you have to be really kind just now and crunchies and crisps most definitely all allowed!
