So, I thought I'd take it upon myself to kickstart the new thread. As the title suggests, this is a wonderful home full of the bravest, funniest and most inspirational women on Mumsnet, who are always ready to lend an ear and a virtual glass of wine.

The new thread is kicked off with 3 bfps in 3 days, so here's to more love and luck along the way

Off to take Brian for a bit of a stretch to our local, have some tea and do the Quiz.
Bye bye everybody, Bye bye.

barrenbrook · 24/03/2010 20:05

Helllooooo all, flying visit from me again, happygirl yey, very exciting! I have to admit being , in the nicest possible way (if that is possible?!)and selfishly would like it to be me next pleasey weasy???? Just before I turn 35 and my stats for having bubbas goes really downhill (apparently according to a delightful 'friend' of mine)

Minxi Welcome. Sorry to hear of your loss. I can't be much help with the POAS thing but as someone else said (sorry can't recall who) don't be too rigid with times and dates as everyones bodies differ.

Gi1da Upbuffy, fab name change, I vote yes!

Who said Louboutins???? Shooooooooooes, I loooooooove shoes! They make me happy

I'm off to bed now laydees, I have been home half an hour and have to get up at half past fecking three for work, fckity, fckity, f*ck.

clareanna · 24/03/2010 20:11

Hello! This new thread is off to a lubberly positive start - I Likey
minxi sorry you have found yourself here- I did a pg test 4 weeks after I had an erpc after an mmc at the same stage as you, and it was neg by then? Take each day as it comes- it is a hugely sad time that sometimes those who haven't mced find hard to understand - you are in the right place here- although as you can tell we're all a bit giddy about the BFPs!!

shiny three words- mile high club

happy wooohooo!! So pleased for you!!!

I am at the bonkers end of the 2ww- frenetic fantasty symptom spotting, obsessive poas thoughts etc...
Day 34 and cycle usually 34/35 days but was 36 days last month after erpc.

Rational brian - didn't feel this month was good, no good quality slippery cm, too soon etc

bonkers brian- but could still be pg! Mild crampy feelings since sun! No RTD yet! (not due really til tomorrow) Boobs bigger! (prob burger consumption in USA) needing to wee loads! (excess coffee consumption to deal with jetlag) last pg didn't get a BFP until 4 days after RTD was due!!! ( therefore the two BFNs I've got CLEARLY don't count)

arggh!!! (clareanna retreats to rock quietly in the corner dribbling)
westyorkshiregirl long cycles suck- no idea what to suggest we should do to pass the time- take up knitting?!

elmum my hormones / emotional were all over the past after erpc- not sure 10 weeks on they are quite ok yet, so look after yourself- a bit of ranting is good

Gi1da · 24/03/2010 20:13
Gi1da · 24/03/2010 20:21

Upduffy might still have some left over zen you can borrow you know [ommm]...

clareanna · 24/03/2010 20:39

Upduffy does that bottle of zen come with a cork?!!!

Gi1da · 24/03/2010 20:52

I think the cork may be hidden under the pee stick....

clareanna · 24/03/2010 21:26

Ooh gi1da you wicked temptress- putting such thoughts in my poor deluded head!
Cramps are a bit stronger now so sure RTD will get me tomorrow- in the meantime am planning to waste some more cash on another pee stick for tomorrow morning [clareanna skips off in delusional state]

Muser · 24/03/2010 21:31

Missed the new thread. Copying from the last one.

Congratulations Happygirl

I have my latest test results back. HCG levels are 11, which is fantastic. No more blood tests, no more hospital visits. I just have to POAS next week to confirm a negative and then it's all done.

clareanna · 24/03/2010 21:35

Muser- that's great news- glad the numbers are nearly in single figures- not long to go now

Gi1da · 24/03/2010 22:20

sorry just realised I missed something last time, here we go. Let's follow up with yet more victory dances at the top of the tree and a rowsing cheer of forthcoming optimism from the bottom!

Muser glad to hear things are getting back to 'normal'. Have party poppers at the ready for when you're back on the action list. That's not pervily over-interested of me is it?

randomimposter · 24/03/2010 22:50

Blimey I go out to the cinema and come back to war and peace... Just marking the new thread, like one of my toms will mark anything new in the house. Classy.

Excoooooose me what's this David Tennant thing? No NO NO. He's freaky to look at. Mind you heard him on Desert Island Discs (long car journey) and he seems a nice bloke... But sexy? NON.

Upduffy? Brilliant.

MrsGazebo · 25/03/2010 00:10

Hey,hey,hey Jolls David Tennant is just luvverly.
And cool
And "quirky"
And funny... I could go on, but I'm tired and it's late, but I'm right and he'll look good hand-cuffed to Noddy me thinks.

Muser that's great news, rilly glad.

Clareanna POAS. Ah! Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on!
Dontcha know these things come in 4's - at least in 36 hour cycles.

< Mrs.G runs up and pokes Barrenbrooks friend in the head where Gi1da flicked >
No that's not nice, Barrenbrook will be winning her bubba soon.
< stands with hands on hips with gob like cats bum, then remembers lady like pose>

Well Brian did us proud, we won the Quiz.
And the smartie pants who usually gets all the questions before anyone else has a chance was not even there.
Mr.G is a very clever boy and always makes us look good.
I usually scribe, I pay attention more, drink less and earn my winnings legitimately that way.
I also make them look good.

Is anyone a Joss Whedon fan btw?
Mr.G I've found something on t'intenet.

Goodluckbear · 25/03/2010 09:52

Hey Muser - that's great news!! Glad to hear things are returning to normal.

MrsG - what did you find on internet last night? Posting at past midnight - dirty stopout!!

xxxxxxx

minxi · 25/03/2010 10:12

Thank you girls for your lovely kind messages.. am planning to wait until RTD/AF arrives before even thinking about ttc again so your advice has been v useful.

Congratulations on the BFP's!!!

Will be back soon to catch up and may add my stats soon... thanks xxx

Pollyanna · 25/03/2010 11:44

Hi all.

Hope everyone is ok - go on clareanna time to poas?

i am quite excited - I put my statistics into fertility friend and it reckons that I did actually ovulate this month - albeit very late. Just have to wait now for RTD to show up...

Sorry no time to update stats - am at work and not meant to be on here!

clareanna · 25/03/2010 11:48

gah - jetlag meant i was up at 3.15am - decided this was as good a time as any... spent about 15 mins going boz-eyed trying to see two lines - only one though - but not RTD yet. holding onto the fact that last time didn't get a BFP until 4 days after RTD was due. Still got weird aching feeling though...

HappyGirl1 · 25/03/2010 11:48

Ladies just wanted to say thank you for all of the kind messages yesterday. It's so kind of you when I know you also want the infamous BFP and you deserve it so much. But really and truly thank you.

I'm incredibly nervous, I am officially 4 weeks today so that's something I guess but I keep thinking that RTD will come. I'm going to do another test at the weekend to check that my hormone levels are rising. If it's okay I'm just not ready for the graduate list yet I'm just far far too nervous.

Muser that's such positive news that your hormone levels are going back down - very nearly in single figures that's very positive..

Sending really really good positive vibes to everyone today..

Hi ladies, just poking my head in to say Hola!

Gi1da - show me how to hash on a mac pretty please?

Hang in there Clareanna x Muser thats great news

Minxi sorry I think I forgot to say Hi as we changed threads How are you doing? Like the other loonies ladies said am so sorry you have found your way hear but I hope we can prop you up, make you laff, give advice and get to the end of this emotional rollercoaster as soon as possible....

All the rest of you crazy cats ello ello ello, hope you are well, off for me lunch and to celebrate MiniAllthe8s getting a place at much wanted primary school.......(I cried when I got the email ffs I ned to pull myself together)

Tatty bye xx

Unbuffy · 25/03/2010 14:00

Hmmm mrsG Joss Whedon was he the one what done Buffy? Hmm, see (current) name. I am a (not at all secret) CHARMED fan!!! Especially when you watch it and choose words to drink to, like, 'understand'. As in, I don't understand. (this would probably also work with Star Trek)
I am playing Quiz tonight! Although it is a League thing and can be quite dull. Think I'm only a team member as am the only person under 50 prepared to take part - so I occasionally come accross as really clever and hip and with it .

Fingers all crossed Clareanna. Could be, could be... Blame the Jet Lag for no bfp yet - you're running behind!

Happygirl, I feel exactly the same. Keep expecting rtd. Doesn't feel at all real yet.

Good news Muser

Don't mind about name change (after weekend test though!) but unable to actually change name as don't know how. I am a computer ignoramus, it's true.

Think i've forgotten some stuff, but brian is frazzled I'm afraid. Maybe some cosseting from some of you ladies? [hands over very small man with confused face, shoes him into room]

Gi1da · 25/03/2010 14:09

Gilda strokes Brian's forehead and eases him into a seat. Now now don't you fret, we're very tame really... Winks at Upduffybuffy

For Allthe8s alt+3 will deliver lovely hash. And no hanging around street corners waiting for dodgy Ebeneezer geezers. Result!

Allthe8s · 25/03/2010 14:38

Got any veras?.........fank u Gi1da #################### hasherty hash!
