i am not pregnant. well i dont think i am. but you know, uits entirely possible to do thing with a VAD in place

which leaves me in a pickle. MAP or not? i have never used it. never had reason to.

i dont know if i entirly belive in it.

but now isnt the right time for an accident. i know that and dh knows that. but the overwhealming feeling by both of us, is to leave it and wait and see. but i dont know if i can. the fall out would be massive. we'd get a ticking off by the health professionals and our families.

and then there is the practicalities, we'd need a bigger car. we'd eventually have to move.

argh.
tell me to be sensible.

and do tesco pharmancy sell the MAP?

I can't tell you to be sensible though.... How likely is it timing wise?

MerlinsBeard · 08/10/2006 11:32

misdee

serioulsly though, MAP only works for i think 72 hours after "the deed" and isn't always successful anyway. regardless of what everyone around you will think, its how you will cope and you and Peters feelings towards it.

OOh i don't know about Tesco..would you really want to stand in tesco and get it though? wouldn't the old ladies buying their support stockings put yu off?

I am so dying to tell you not to be sensible (-:

But yes from what I remember Tescos do sell it.

snowleopard · 08/10/2006 11:32

Sounds like a little bit of you would like to be PG?

Kidstrack · 08/10/2006 11:33

you need to think first if you could cope with another lo, if not i think ou should take map, both my friends have taken it and been sick with it, one in the morning then another 12hrs later, hence they both have children

MerlinsBeard · 08/10/2006 11:33

you could ring tesco pharmacy first, taht way you would know if they sell it.(do u have to buy it?)

SoupDragon · 08/10/2006 11:34

Oh, it's difficult.... but you said the overwhelming feeling for both of you is to leave it and wait and see.... I'd love to tell you to do just that.

lulunaticmama · 08/10/2006 11:34

can having a coil fitted have the same effect? if that's what you want obviously....

Misdee - saw your blog yesterday through the thread about donor cards.

you make me feel very humble...

Hijack over...

BATtymumma · 08/10/2006 11:34

i agree that Misdee does sound rather like her head is trying to tell her heart what to do.

seriously though hun, you have SOOO much going on right now, i think you need to be sensible...just for a little while longer

Do you want another child?

WelshBorisKarloff · 08/10/2006 11:35

my god!! morning after pill!!

misdee!!

i dont know what to advise but you are a naughty girl

alexsCURSEDMUMMY · 08/10/2006 11:36

i think you should take it misdee. if tesco have a pharmacy they will stock it. i know the fantasy idea of it is nice, but you have to be practical.

Kidstrack · 08/10/2006 11:36

misdee most pharmacies don't charge now as its a free contraception, i know safeway/morrisons pharmacy do it free and many independant ones too

BATtymumma · 08/10/2006 11:36

so would i, but we are being sensible.....arent we?

SoupDragon · 08/10/2006 11:37

I wonder if there ever is anything sensible about the decision to have a child, just degrees of stupidity.

beetroot · 08/10/2006 11:38

omg I don't know.... though!!!!

SoupDragon · 08/10/2006 11:41
