Anyone else counting down to April 1st?

[mzhwd]

Mom it is a lot of fun, but if you don't know how to swim I would definitely stick to shallow water lol. Hopefully does stay away. That would be awesome. I haven't done any extra test if AF doesn't come Friday then I'll test that evening. I hate that pregnancy symptoms and AF symptoms are so similar. Many women say that they thought AF was coming and it ended up being a BFP. Lol

Mummy how's everything going with you.

MolGold I hope that you don't ovulate early. Maybe you and DH and sneak away for a little and get some bd in while away. JIC lol

Diddy wow Cd40. How long are your cycles usually?

As well as can be expected really, I hate bedtime because it's bedtime wen I get to thinking on everything and without fail it keeps me awake. Last night wasn't too bad because me n my mum was getting rest of my stuff and by time we was finished I was exhausted so got to sleep much quicker. I have to start thinking about my future and finding a place for myself, daughter and baby which I expect will take a year at councils pace. They don't rush lol but at the moment it's the only way I'm going to get a house. I had it worked out that once daughter goes back to nursery in September I'd start looking for a job but that's never gonna happen now. I don't know how easy or hard being a single mum too two is going to be but time shall tell. I have my first midwife appointment Friday and I plan to make everything look fine, I don't want them thinking I'm emotionally unstable or anything so il just tell them things wasn't working with partner. I had a visit from social services today, they want to make sure I am ok in myself and coping with it all ok so tomorrow I will find out the outcome. It can go two ways, they can open a case for giving me support or close it and leave it at that. Personally I'm hoping they open a case because today I was advised they can help me apply for houses and get furniture and carpets if necessary which right now would be a great help. Myself and his family all find this crazy how someone can make accusations against him after learning I'm pregnant, doesn't make no sence and we just don't believe for a minute it's true. His mum is in contact with him and he does tell her to tell me he loves me etc, but that's not going to make me feel any better about it all. Iv tried to cry so many times and I know I can't I have to stop myself from doing it last night I had a dream that he was released and came home and we all lived happily

Kell has just announced her pregnancy on Facebook with her scan pic, god knows how she's managed to keep it quiet so long lol sadly she doesn't speak to me these days, think she has abandoned her b n b family lol.

Is it October yet? I have just paid for hotel for holiday in Portugal, booked a different one since it was a good £150 cheaper and I didn't wanna be paying that extra wen it would have been for partner who won't be there, sadly I'd already booked flights so that money is at a loss now, but this has to be the most needed hol iv ever had I can't wait to get away from it all for a week, I just have to work out how to get my camera back before then *sigh* police felt the need to take it even though it ain't his lol which I told them to which they say it was taken from his property so goes back to him lol and to make it worse they say ring back in a month to see where it is, what the heck - a month are they taking the joke?

Anyway rant over. Hope everyone else is doing ok?

 

[kell]

Morning ladies How are we all? Sorry I've been so quiet for weeks, had a lot going on and didn't know if i was on my head or my arse! I haven't a abandoned you all

My partner walked out on us over a month ago and was in bed with another woman within 3 days of leaving. He is now shacked up with her and they are going on holiday with her family today from what I've heard. He hasn't spoken to the kids since he left and obviously that has hurt them a lot. He may not be their father but he was their stepdad and they loved him to bits. He left me with no money and didn't pay the rent so I've been trying to sort that out. As well as dealing with the fact I'm to be a single mum again. I am gaining in confidence though after he left me i was at rock bottom. I've had another scan which put me forward again so apparently I'm now 16 weeks 3 days! Baby may just be big so we shall see what my 20 week scan says. Ex has had no involvement and shown no interest so I havent bother to let him know anything. He was more bothered about child support taking his money from what I've been told.

Anyway, enough about him. I hope you are all ok. I will stick around again now I promise

Mummy im here if you want to text and rant, i didn't know you were going through a rough time too xx

 

[Mom2sam]

Aww mummy things will get better just wait & see right now i know it doesn't seem like it but it will, no situation stays the same. Are your family there to help you out? I know if anything happened between me & dh i dont really have suportive fanily to fall back on thier all too bothered about themselves & i'm the one who is usually there for them. But i know when times come we mothers are tough for our kids & can get through anything.
I think take a good freind or family member with you on vacation & being away hopefully helps to at least bring u up emotionally. I really hope you getting the support you need right now & feel free to vent it cant be easy for you.. Big hugs hun xx

Diddy that is a long cycle hopefully af comes soon & enjoy your vacation x

Mzwid i hope af doesn't show for you i'd have tested by now! Man i have zero will willpower x

Cd15 for me & waiting for smu to do opk, really hope i get a positive before cd17 this time, anyway we did end up actively trying lol didn't want to waste more time, started guainefesin cough syrup yesterday to thin cm as i notice mines stretchy but not clear, worked for me month i took it wen i conceived ds, also still taking the vitex, & dh & me been taking pregnacare vits, if i don't conceive this cycle next cycle will start taking epo too for more cm, i typed in google abput what to take for ewcm & all sorts came up, epo which i've tried but something else i haven't tried but found weird, baking soda finger? Anyone heard of it lol lots of women said it helped them conceived but i'm a little skeptical. Interesting read though
Dh bro & his partner who i mentioned had gone for ivf well it didn't stick i feel so bad for them & they paid £4000 so said thier going to wait 2 months & go for another try. Dh mum was saying yesterday how our ds is only grandchild & she wants to see more babies, bless her i said hopefully soon you get them all together.

 

[Mom2sam]

Hey kell i thought you prob just busy with all the kids i'm so sorry, thats aweful what is going on with these men! Reading your post just made me feel like i'm reading about my sisters life. She got divorced because her dh kept cheating on her she forgave him so many times in end they got divorced & she bacane a single mum for 6 years she was a single mum got a full time job & supported her kids alone her ex husband went & re married & didnt wana knw, anyway she met a guy 3 years ago & last year thy got married & 2 months after thy got married same old crap again she caught him having a affair & he had a baby girl from someone last year too which he kept a secret. She comes to mine & i see that same stress her ex husband put her through. Its aweful these men just think it's ok without having any thought to how it affects everyone else. Keep strong hun kids are tougher than we think but it's definitely not fair on them i sometimes think these men are like grown kids & don't think about how thier actions have an impact on lives around them. Selfish. X

 

[Mom2sam]

Did my opk cd15, & it's nearly positive woohoo think the vitex deffo helped as last cycle didn't get a positive til cd20! Anyway will test afain later today should be positive either later today or tmrw x

Good to see you back I didn't want to say u was also goin through tough time to everyone it wasn't my place to say so. It's ok you didn't know I didn't want to put something like this on Facebook knowin they would all judge me etc. My best friend keeps sayin he must be guilty etc which is wrong that's surely not what u say to ur best friend? So iv not spoke to her since, she was the first person I spoke to thinkin she'd at least cheer me up etc.

Yea thankfully my family are very supportive. My sister even paid petrol for her hubby to take their car to help me get my stuff which was a big help. I find it odd how she says love u on wen we are talking on Facebook n she goes bed she never used to lol my mum has been a great help too, I couldn't do it without them.

I'm off to take Beth's passport to council today stupid idiots failed to mention I need Beth's too and I have a cheque to put in the bank, oh mum kindly sent me £100 to help me pay the cut off Bill from bt (internet and phone) so once that Bill comes il only have around 67 to pay and then that contract is gone, it wil be nice to £55 a month better off but that's not for a little while yet as they needed 30days notice so doesn't cease til Sept.

Mom hopefully u don't o so late this time fx have u carried on tempin?

Mzwid get testing

Diddy hope af arrives soon and you enjoy your holiday

 

[Mom2sam]

I'm glad your family being supportive at times like this you need good family around & as for your freind hopefully she didn't mean to upset you but i guess ppl should be sensitive with these things, that's nice of your mum my mums good too & dad was fab but he passed away now, siblings are too busy in thier own lives when i was suffering with hyperemesis all my family backed off & usually call me everyday demanding fabours from me. Poor dh was doing everything alone, soon as i mc they started calling again denanding they nd lifts or this & that. It did get to me but dh & me are type we let it go but i dont go running to help like i used to. Anyway soz i ended up bringing my own issues into it. Everything will work mummy & hopefully when you get to see dh he can give u a explantation until then just try look after yourself & babies i know it's hard babes x

 

[Mom2sam]

Opk is nearly positive & nope only temped for couple days as missed a few days when i had decided to not try til oct lol anyway will get back to it once af comes hopefully it wont come

Oops forgot i already said it's nearly positive coz i'v posted in another thread too got confused

That's terrible of your family only bothered about themselves by sounds of it I hope they don't still do it. Iv only ever asked for help if needed it and that's rare I'm the quiet one of the family. Fx you won't need to start temping again. Your support is much appreciated it does help to know I have ppl on here who I can talk to. We are like a family.

 

[Mom2sam]

Opks gone lighter lol oh what is going on with my body. Was nearly ositive ths morning, then again was 4/5th pee of the day & diluted will try again ths evening after a good hold if i can my bladders so weak

 

[mzhwd]

Yeah we are like a family on here. I hate to hear that you guys have encountered such circumstances. Being a single mom can be hard, but definitely possible. There are a ton of people who do it every day and are able to do well for themselves and their children. This entire ttc journey has put a lot of things in perspective for me too.

Mummy try not to be too hard on your friend. She gave you her honest opinion and only a true friend will tell you things that you don't want to hear. Hopefully he gets out soon. I'm sure you guy's already have a lawyer. Maybe they can get him out on bond until all of this is worked out. I hope that your midwife appointment goes well tomorrow and the Social Services case works in your favor. Usually here in the States when you hear Social Services it means someone seen something thought the kids were in danger and called. Glad to hear that it works differently there.

got me today uggghhhhh. I hate these cramps.

It'll probably be positive later today.

 

[Mom2sam]

So sorry af came evenings opk is same as this morning nearly positive so hopefully tmrw it's positive i think afternoon pee was just too diluted

Social services here can be same so one has to tread very carefully around them. Mummy if it can be helped try to stay away from them as a freind of mine initially they had said they were there to help she has 5 kids one of whom has had problems with bowel & learning difficulties since birth, but she rang me other day crying saying they've taken kids off her as said she is unable to take care of them & is just crying out for help for herself. I was shocked how harsh of them knowing she came to them for help & now they have used it against her. She is devastated i'm not too close to her as she doesn't live near me but from what i know she loves those kids to bits. I'm just going by what she told me but if it's true i think you got to be so carefull getting social services involved.

That sounds horrid what they did to her I hope it had a happy ending. All I can do is wait to see what they say they haven't rang me back yet. It sounds like you need to get bdin

 

[Mom2sam]

Cd16 done an opk with fmu just to see if it's getting darker & it's just a tad away from being positive so should be positive later today, now don't know whether to keep taking vitex till end of cycle or to stop after ovulation

She said it went to court & judge was in favour of social services but agreed to let the dad take them & she can only see them through visitation. She away on vacation at moment so haven't heard from her

 

[Mom2sam]

Opk is positive now cd16 seems the vitex doing it's job now just hope it helps me to conceive this cycle

 

[mummy_smurf2b]

Opk is positive now cd16 seems the vitex doing it's job now just hope it helps me to conceive this cycle

[mummy_smurf2b]

Yay finally something to look forward to, my 12week scan on 1st Sept. All that has now changed aswell, they had me ring up and book it myself.
