Aussies trying to get duffered aged 20+ !!!

[cossime]

And as for me....I'M WASTING TIME until I can go home!!! Hurry up 3:30pm! I want to go home and pack!

 

[Melainey]

Hahaha ladies it was tired haha My phone is an ass!

Abs that can mean that you are duffers! Apparently it doesn't show up on a hpt till later as the opk's are more sensitive? Also I have pcos and I never really get pos Opk's

So I finally figured out what to get Daniel for his birthday (although it's not going to be here for another 3 weeks but that's ok cause he doesn't even want anything ) So he is really into racing and LOVES Subaru so I got him this jacket

thanks Ginny, yeah i will wait and see what my temp does tomorrow. i often get a drop in temp the day of ov, which is what prompted my test today ....so, just keep waiting! my chart last month did the same thing!
I am happy for the second chance to Ov if that is the case! or im duffered, even better....as DH just said to me "worse case scenario we try again next month" sometimes i dislike when he is so rational

 

[Newbie32]

Well im keeping my fingers crossed for you abs honey xx

Yay for your holiday cossie....room in your suitcase for one more???? XX

maddy- given my research, im fairly sure both names can be on the birth cert up here as well, but due to american laws and complications of everything that we need to see a lawyer and get adoption done.

toilet training puppies- we used mats, started with a few around the house, then just one by the front door, then just outside the door, and then on the grass. Also our trainer said to put them a lead and walk them out on the grass, or where ever their toilet spot will be, for 5 min every 2 hours, that option worked really well with our second, she was trained within a few days. We have a dog door they use in the day, now that they are older and have bigger bladders they go before bed then first thing in the morning. we had a few accidents on the floor over night before then, but wasn't terrible (only wee too)

melainey- awesome pressie choice, im sure he'll love it!!!

shell- meant to mention this, and although it would seem more normal coming from melainey i did notice i got some bleeding/spotting after i had a big shit. tmi - i know and so much more up melaineys alley. but i ended up figuring that maybe it just pushed everything out everywhere, hence the spotting. not sure if yours coincides, but thought i would say it, as it seems to be one of those things no one ever tells you.

cossi- hope you have a fabulous holiday!!! we'll miss you

afm- dr gave me an ultrasound referral, he said so you're having light cramping and twinges and i said no, and he said you are having light cramping and twinges, ohhhhh yeah totally, got it thanks doc, a little slow on the up take. much appreciated going to try to book that tomorrow after OHs specialist appoint.

 

[Melainey]

2mums hahahahah That would have been upmy alley hehe

Haha love your Doc Hopefully you can find out the sex

Thanks ladies I hope he does

 

[MissieT]

Just dropping in to say a really quick hi - run off my feet today training a new starter.
Rosie - hope you're ok over there
Maddy - really hope today goes well and your BFP follows really soon
Abby - fx'ed for bfp's from funny charts.
Melainey - confuses me so much how drs can charge such different amounts for the same thing! Well done on finding the new place.
Smithy - make sure you puke on the doc tomorrow if he starts putting up a fight!
Everyone else - a big hi and hope you are all ok (sorry for being rude and not getting everything into this post)
Not worked out how to post a picture from my phone so will have ago tonight from home. Just booked docs appt for Fri

 

[cossime]

I will hopefully be able to jump on when I can as we have free wi-fi in all our resorts so I'm sure I wont be too far away

 

[Mum 2 Quigley]

Hi girls!

Nana - your boss is a twat!

Ginny, not sure yet, at this stage I won't go get checked out, if it keeps happening, or gets worse, or I get any cramps with it, I will be straight to the hospital. I have a gp appointment next Monday, so I will wait til then.

Lisa, I wouldn't worry about your cycles... Mine were between 22 & 49 days! My doc said it's normal for people to have irregular cycles.

2mums, yay for scan! And thanks for TMI! this mornings spotting was after a bit shit. LOL yesterdays wasn't I don't think?? But I'll keep an eye on it!

Cossie - yay for internet connection!

Lainey 0 great pressie!

Abbs, be patient, i think you Ovulated & I think you're preggy. But WAY too early to test, so hang in there and I think start testing on the weekend! And stop peeing on OPKs!!!! And also, remember OPKs aren't preggy tests, so while a lot of women do get positives right before their + HPTs, remember it's not what they're designed for, so use pregnancy tests to test for pregnancy.

sorry can't remember anymore!

LOVE! xoxo

 

[Abby27]

thanks Squeegs! i was peeing on them as OPKs, just wanted some assurance that i was actually in the TWW....which i didnt really get. but we have been BDing, so i feel ok that im covered. now just wait. i hope im duffered...however...
Just got two emails, one from the union and one from management. looks like fun times ahead at work and redundancies ahead (im not sure for who). Awesome! (not)

 

[Trying2b2mums]

shell - YW wasn't every time with me, but i did notice some correlation between big shits and spotting it's stopped now, haven't noticed any for about a month now, but last half of 1st trimester definitely had spotting/bleeding.

 

[Mum 2 Quigley]

Abbs, I suspect that tomorrow you will have a little rise and then the next day another rise! I only say this, cos it was a HUGE dip, so your temps might not go WAT back up there in one go, so don't freak out if it's only a little rise!

2Mums - thanks, you really are the best. It makes me feel so much better hearing other people go through it. I got home & have had some more...not big shits involved. I really don't know what to do, cos I don;t have that 'worried' feeling, but I know that there is defo spotting, just don't know if I'm being a bit of a drama queen if I go to the hospital & nothings wrong? I'm not very good with hospitals cos I've never really had to be in them....

 

[Melainey]

Don't ever feel like a drama queen honey I reckon you are fine but go to the hospital if you have any doubt! with my MC, it felt just like a period came on and it was full on red bleeding, so I'm sure that you gave nothing to worry about

 

[Abby27]

You might have to wait a bit at a hospital. They wouldn't make you feel like a drama queen though, so if you want to go never think of that as a deterrent. If you aren't in pain and its not heavy may be make a doc appt just to put your mind at ease. I know so many ladies who have had spotting to and its fine, but I know I'd be stressed (I get stressed about opks so not the best guide) . I'm really just thinking of your mental health, I'm sure bubs is fine.
I'm watching ghostbusters now!

 

[Trying2b2mums]

i called my GP and explained my symptoms, he said no worries if no cramping, but maybe just giving them a call can ease your mind until you get in there for your appointment. I know how you feel though, I worried with my spotting, then there was more and more, and thats when i went to see my OBGYN, but then the spotting continued for a month or so and i never got it checked out again, after all was good the first time, i just dealt with it, but it is stressful. before this website i thought most/all pregnancies went just fine, i think being exposed to everything that can go wrong makes it more stressful, but chances are you are just fine and bub is just fine. dont worry love!

 

[Mum 2 Quigley]

Thanks! I just spoke to DH & I told him what was going on & what I was thinking and he said that if there is nothing the hospital can do to stop a M/C and I'm not feeling anxious about it, I should wait until my doctors appointment cos its less than a week away. Unless of course something else happens. I'm thinking it might be worth talking the doctor next Monday & he will hopefully send me for an early scan? the other doctor I saw when he was away said 12 week scan unless any bleeding. So it may be enough for them to refer me to get a scan & I think when I see my baby's heart beat after this spotting, I will feel better.

 

[Trying2b2mums]

DH is spot on, and I agree with him, as long as your not overly stressed or anxious, wait til your appointment, and given the spotting/bleeding you should get an early scan, if you want to push it, tell the dr you have had light twinges/cramping and you'll get in for a scan. its worth peace of mind.

 

[Newbie32]

Oh squeegs hun, I hope it stops soon so you can stop worrying! I'm sure all will be ok with bubs, she is just getting super comfy in there!

Pleased to report that I had another chat with the asshole this afternoon and squared away all that extra week stuff, all done and dusted now for the 16th. They know they will be fucked, but they know they will just have to get by! At least the next 2.5 weeks shouldn't be too unpleasant now! Just need to find a freaking job already!!!
