Hello my lovely lasses! Work has been a ripped bag of crap this week so now able to delurk and respond after a mamoth catch-up!
Cloud - i am literally holding my breath for you. Enough said. Xxxxx
Sasha - i am so sorry the darkness has been eating you up this week. My 4-6 weeks depression after mc 3 was one of the worst times in my life so far. Xxx
Pop - fascinating coventry story, how've you been since biopsy? Looking forward to seeing you in june!
Flen - your advive on children is so measured and well informed, what do you do?!
Who had that fucking horrible toy? BIN, and letter. Wtf's the world coming to? Bad taste.
Re age dif, i wouldnt mind 3 years especially (ds is 21 months, and i teally do think of him still as a baby). If he was 3 he would get his 2 days at nursery free and his understanding will be better. Plus, i don't mind thoroughly indulging him in his demi- god status!!! Me and my bro have 9 yeaears between us and we worshiped each other! (Plus, i fancied his mates as a teen!)

Flen · 02/05/2015 18:17

Welcome glen and hello. This thread is ace. It's been a fab support for me and I hope it can be for you too.

cheesy a quick "my god yes" to your opk time, I bloody hate it! Hope it happens soon.

Freckle I am a child behaviour specialist person - work for the LEA across primary schools in the city and also as an attachment advisor in primary schools with a woman called Louise Bomber, who is totally brilliant. I love your demi-god description - think it's so important for children to have that experience!

Minnie74 · 02/05/2015 18:18

Just popping in before I go out! First time in ages- yay!

glenpip welcome but sorry you have to be here. Lovely place to get understood.

pop glad Cov was good. I love reading the science. It's starting to make a bit of sense. Looking forward to getting there in the next three weeks.

freckle glad work is improving. The hell of report writing starts soon-bloody hate it and can never motivate myself till the last minute so have no life for a good two weeks!

Afs arrived so on the count down to Coventry! Slightly worried as I'm not sure I ovd last month. What if I don't this month? Would that mean I couldn't go? Confused

Brummiegirl15 · 02/05/2015 18:23

Ooh Freckle you are a bit feisty tonight my love!!! "Ripped bag of crap" Grin love it!

Glad to see lots of peeps going out. Wine all the way.

Girlie I'm definitely on the vino. DP is sulking that Wolves didn't score about 6 goals in the last 5 mins and get to play offs.

Glen I am so sorry you find yourself here. We are great, so I hope we can help you

Marchgirl · 02/05/2015 18:34

Still no positive cheesy. Sick of it already too. I think because my af came a day early my body is going by when it should have arrived so it's a day behind when it should be from af. Fingers crossed we're both tomorrow. Glad we had a night off now! Hmm

girliesaints · 02/05/2015 18:52

Commiserations Brummie, DH is sulking Saints lost against Sunderland and is on his way home early. I was hoping to have N evening to myself watching crap TV, now I'll have him stomping around ??

sebsmummy1 · 02/05/2015 19:04

Have walked around all day today close to tears because of the Royal announcement. Asked DP what sex our baby was as I didn't want to know at the time, and it was a girl Sad. Fucking fucking fucking fucking hell.

CheesyMash · 02/05/2015 19:21

march yes I think because my af was a few days early my app has shown ov early too but don't think this is the case.

sebs sorry today has been so painful for you. Flowers

Brummiegirl15 · 02/05/2015 19:25

Oh Sebs big hugs. It's hard I know. All I can say is, she isn't real life.

Try to think of her as a fictional character, after all no one else gives birth to a Princess.

Unfortunately I know it's the rolling in your face coverage. Much love xx

bakingtins · 02/05/2015 19:26

(((Hugs))) for cloud sebs and anyone else struggling with wall to wall Royal baby.

welcome glen and sorry you've had such a crappy year. I hope the testing process brings you some answers. I had 3 MC in a 10 month period in 2012-13 and then had DD on the Coventry protocol, about which you will no doubt hear loads.

Marchgirl · 02/05/2015 19:44

Hugs to everyone struggling. i think I agree that I don't really see her as real, but I know things might have been different a few months ago when i was in a darker place.

Brummiegirl15 · 02/05/2015 19:52

I admit, the day her pregnancy was announced I really struggled. The announcement came the day my 12 wk scan should've been for mc number 2 and I fell apart.

Hugs to those struggling xx

tannyLoo · 02/05/2015 20:16

Sebs, I get that. Its a shitty pile of steaming shit. Any girls of mine, and there must have been some, are missed every day. Lots of love.

Glen sorry you're here, but it is a great supportive place to be.

Marchgirl · 02/05/2015 20:19

You lot are totally brilliant by the way. What an amazing bunch of women you all are. Feel so grateful that I found this place. You've dug me out of the deepest hole I've ever been in and I'm so grateful for all the support xxx

sebsmummy1 · 02/05/2015 20:56

Thanks Tanny Cake. To add insult to injury the likely name they have chosen would have been the name we would have also chosen if it was a girl. I can't even be bothered to cry, i'm just totally numb most of the time nowadays.

cloudjumper · 02/05/2015 21:08

I second what march said Smile

The spotting has stopped. I feel very rough, sore back and crampy. Slept all afternoon, but it will still be an early night for me. Hope I'll feel less like death tomorrow.
Emotions all over the place... Sobbed when I saw the royal baby leave hospital. Then watched the last episode of Poldark, which promptly also reduced me to tears. Think I will call it a day and just go to bed.

CheesyMash · 02/05/2015 21:14

Glad the spotting has stopped cloud and hope it stays away. In the nicest possible way, I hope you're coming down with something and that explains the roughness and cramps. Hope you can get some rest tonight. X

Brummiegirl15 · 02/05/2015 21:16

Sebs Tanny Cloud and everyone else whose hearts are breaking a bit more tonight, big big hugs.

I miss my babies every single day xx
