[heart tree]

Vicky, your boss is a complete ass and if he fires you or if you quit, he'll realize how valuable you were. He needs to be slapped.

I'm now shoving cookies in my face because I'm so upset with awful bosses and the lack of freezer kits.

 

[vickyd]

Ok girls ill get on it straight away!! Hell ill be unemployed soon enough ill have plenty of time on my hands!!!

 

[LucyJ]

aww vicky sorry your boss it being a total arse You should ask for your pay rise it sounds like you totally deserve it you shouldnt even have to ask they should offer you it.

Nato that sucks that you cant frezze at home or find a clinic to do it at a reasonable price these companies really do take the piss but a weekend in Australia would be nice I say go for it.

 

[Sassy_TTC]

I say fuck work and fly to Oz, it's cheaper and you actually get to bonk your hot Hubby.

Will speak to her first thing Hun and let you know.xxx

 

[msarkozi]

I say go to Australia!!!

Vicky - you deserve a raise for sure!

 

[Sassy_TTC]

Vicky sounds like you has every right to say that to him, tosspot!!

What was it you made? Or whatever you call it!!xxx

 

[NatoPMT]

hahaha at hearty stuffing her face in sympathy.

the flying to australia has been seriously considered and rejected, my work would go mental if i took time off, i cant take time off my course, flying delays my ovulation and i get terrible jetlag and my legs blow up like sausages so would be too exhausted and unsexy to do it, plus of course i cant afford it. and no one in their right mind would fly to oz for a weekend. Love the way you lot arent in your right minds.

it was a fun fantasy for a bit. boo.

 

[vickyd]

We make building chemicals, so nothing hard core like cutting edge medical research for me!!! I designed a new construction sealant that basically combines two of the best technologies and does not contain the harmful chemicals that were used until recently. Again not Nobel stuff but in our buisness its a very significant product.

 

[heart tree]

Wow Vicky, that is impressive! But maybe at your new job, you will be doing things for fertility purposes.

Nato, I invited everyone on the crazy train a long time ago. We are all regulars on this ride now. Don't ever expect us to give you advice that is "logical" or "affordable."

 

[yogi77]

Nato, yes we are crazy but who's to say what's "normal" anyways!!! I say go to Australia and enjoy some time there and get in some overseas !

 

[Allie84]

I'm sorry Nato. Can you just BD at the last possible minute with him (at the airport perhaps) and as you'll be maybe 5 days from ovulation just make sure you use lots of preseed and keep putting it up there the next few days to help the swimmers stay alive until the eggy? It's not ideal by any means but you still have a chance.

Vicky, your boss pisses me right off!!! It seems so unfair. Way to design that sealant, btw.

 

[Dazed]

Well, finally home from work!

Nato, I'm doing well. Anthing I thought was a symptom has now passed. I believe I am about 11dpo but I could be as few as 6dpo based on some cramping I had. So it will either be a 28 day cycle or a 31 day cycle!

Vicky, sorry you had a bad day. The one time I told a boss off, I actually got respected, but I actually wish I had the gull to tell my current boss off.

Hope the rest of you are doing well!

 

[heart tree]

Allie, we know that airport sex works well!! Right Amy?

Dazed, it's still too early to symptom spot. This tww sucks!

 

[Dazed]

Yeah, I know. I tell myself every month that I'm not going to.

Megg, it really means alot to me that you stand by me (and everyone else) every month. I just feel bad that I disappoint you every month.

 

[CJSG1977]

Hello!!!!!!!!!!! Big hugs for all my girls!!!

Duffy congrats darlin on your news!!!

Vicky your boss sounds like a wanker, I'd ask for the raise still but I'm braizen LOL!!! Sorry you had to go through that though.

Nato hunni!!! Not the cheapest option hey! Maybe the preseed idea will work, you have to try. Fingers crossed your you chicken!

I hope everyone else is ok. I have been reading...lots of talk on xfactor...blah LOL! Freezing spermies LOL! Hey whatever works. Crappy days, a little boy being born (a friend of Allies??) Well I am thinking of you all.

AFM I am just going in to CD6, I was 3 days late bluhhhhh. But as someone mentioned I have been in high spirits anyway. I have been on my feet about 19 hours a day and have lost over half a stone! I am looking forward to spending some time on my back BD very soon to give my feet a rest Thats if we can fit it in! We go on holiday on the 15th. OV should be anytime from the 10th.... BUT, if its late I may even ov while on holiday which could work out well!! Here's hoping anyway! Failing that we'll just have to squeeze some time in that week before.

 

[Megg33k]

Hey mummy2angel, I love seeing posts from you happily pregnant as we had our miscarriages around the same time when I first joined BnB.

About these kits and syringes...one thing I just thought of is don't you have to be really careful putting it up there without air in the syringe? I remember reading about possible embolisms when air goes up there. Just be careful. I could be talking nonsense.

Amy, thanks for the lovely words! Enjoy your pjs, girly tv and mud mask. It sounds like my type of night!!

Lucy, I will be thinking of you as well tomorrow and we can be holding hands in spirit. I wasn't nervous yesterday but all of a sudden today I'm envisioning all kinds of bad results. I had a dream I had a sky high FSH level.

Megg and Hearty, that is going to be such a beautiful baby blanket. I cannot believe how soon you will be pregnant, Megg!!

Lemme fix that: "I cannot believe how soon WE HOPE you will be pregnant, Megg!!" I like the way you think, though!

The air thing... It has to be a lot of air with a good bit of force. Its been debunked on many websites!

cor, look at the 'probable egg transfer' - thats getting close. You only have to wait 10 days for testing after IVf dont you? ahh, yes, i remember.... christmas eve bfp.

I will be testing christmas day. So thats a full on benny for me over everyone elses turkey

Im ok Dazed, bit grumpy. How about yourself. what are you now, approx 11 dpo?

ive been working out my probabilities, and they arent good for December with at best, a bd 3 days before ov, assuming i ov on CD13. I checked on FF and all the charts with pregnancy with that BD pattern look to me like they have more questionnable ov days cos most of them dont use opks or they have dotted lines.

have been thinking about phoning a sperm bank to get some on ice for home insemination.

I thought about the air bubbles too allie, most of the kits tell you to tap the side of the syringe

I believe I'm supposed to wait 10-11 days, yeah.

well im already out for the rest of 2010. Husband's work couldn't get him a wednesday flight, so he's now going on Monday again.

i'm so pissed off.

That freakin' sucks!!!

thanks yogi. doesnt it. even the thought of a drunken christmas is no fun

uuugggh I'm dreading Christmas if I get bfn.

Hey! Me too!

Hello again!

Nato 1000 quid for just storing the sperm or doing the insertion procedure as well???? If you only want to store and do a home insemination i think you are right that a sperm bank is the best way to go...Stupid question but cant you get a sterile cup and store in your freezer?

Megg love the fabric you chose...I think it will turn out excellent in the hands of master craftswoman Hearty!!!

AFM im pretty sure that if i wasnt pregnant i would be fired from my job...In greece you cannot fire a pregnant woman for a year and a half after she gives birth. I guess its my hormones or all the shit that happened last week but i cant let anything go at work. Usually when my boss is being an ass i ignore him and just take his verbal abuse. Now i talk back and yesterday i told him to go to hell lol!!! I guess unless i relax a bit ill be looking for a job this time next year!!!

Thank you!

Nice that you can't be fired right now! LOL He totally deserved to be told off!

hahaha at hearty stuffing her face in sympathy.

Boo to no Oz trip!

Sounds like a good creation to me! It doesn't have to save the world to be valuable!

Wow Vicky, that is impressive! But maybe at your new job, you will be doing things for fertility purposes.

Nato, I invited everyone on the crazy train a long time ago. We are all regulars on this ride now. Don't ever expect us to give you advice that is "logical" or "affordable."

Logical and affordable are the 2 things I'm the WORST with!

Well, finally home from work!

Hope the rest of you are doing well!

Perhaps your symptom will come back!

Yeah, I know. I tell myself every month that I'm not going to.

Megg, it really means alot to me that you stand by me (and everyone else) every month. I just feel bad that I disappoint you every month.

Hey now! Enough of that! You never disappoint me! You're amazing! I couldn't be disappointed in you unless you gave up!

Hello!!!!!!!!!!! Big hugs for all my girls!!!

Duffy congrats darlin on your news!!!

Hoping you catch it this month!!!



AFM... My shots were a nightmare tonight! They both burned when I pushed the meds in, which isn't normal. The one I had to mix last night didn't have enough of it left tonight, which the clinic said could happen. But they said to just throw it out and do a new one. Well, how fucking wasteful can someone be? Jeezus? This shit isn't cheap! So, I mixed a new one and kept the old one (even though they said it can't last more than 24 hours). I don't believe them on that. How could it not? Anyway, I only kept it so that if I ever need a minuscule amount again to make up the difference in quantity that I can use a teeny bit of it. I can't see throwing out half of each vial because its missing less than 1/8 CC. Who knows though!

Honestly, I'm finally getting tired of the shots. 3 a day is just about more than I can handle. It was fine when it was 1... even 2. But adding this 3rd has made me sulky!

Also, its cold as fuck and snowed a bit today! Do not want! And, I didn't get to the post office, because I had to come home and stab myself instead. Guess I'm just in a bad mood. I hope there's a baby at the end of this. I don't know if I can do it again.

 

[heart tree]

Hi CJ! Sorry about the witch but you do sound in great spirits! I hope you ov on holiday. Where are you going?

Jesus Megg what a nightmare. I seriously can't believe how much room for error there is with these meds. You'd think they would make I foolproof. I don't blame you for being sick of the needles. You are such a trooper though.

Sorry you didn't get to the post office. Hopefully tomorrow. Don't stress though. We'll get the blanket done before the baby arrives. Promise.

 

[heart tree]

Writing over my double post. Ignore.

 

[Megg33k]

I don't mind the pre-filled stuff so much... but I hate the ones I have to fill myself. Unfortunately, I have to fill most of them myself. I only have 1 pre-filled... the pen one. And, even it burned when I injected. I don't get it. It makes me HATE this. But, I'm doing it for a good reason. I just wish I had a guarantee at the end, ya know? I'm terrified of bad news on Friday. So much could be "not right"... I hope its all okay though.

I'll get things mailed tomorrow for sure. I have a ton of stuff to send out! I have to get there tomorrow!

 

[LucyJ]

Aww megg sorry your having a bad day I dont blame you being sick of it it must be so hard mixing it all and sticking yourself with needles but it will all be worth it at the end of the day and I am hoping and praying that you get your baby!!

CJ its good to see you good luck with this month hope you have a fab holiday where are you going? Pleased the pub is going well.

Allie I am thinking of you today hope all goes well with your appointment.

Nato big how you doing today?

Oh and I am definitely still on board the crazy train!!

AFM: well have had my apppointment and it was so hard I felt physically sick and couldnt stop shaking I even cried at one point I just wanted to get out of that place asap but of course we had to wait. It was like I was reliving every moment we had had there god knows what I'll be like when I'm pregnant again and have to go for scans. Thank god steve was there with me he kept holding my hand and talking to me getting me to think about other things positives things save things. Anyway we finally got called through thankfully we went into a room that we hadn't been in before, the results from bristol regarding the baby werent back so we dont have them which was a bit gutting then she said she would take a little bit of blood from steve and a lot from me. I'm fine with blood tests which is a good thing but steve not so much its weird hes fine with needles, injections and blood but I think its the feeling of the blood leaving his arm that makes him feel funny so she did his first he only had one vial taken and was fine. Then she pulled out all the bottles for me and there were 10 I couldnt believe it 5 big ones, three middle size ones and 2 little ones. She had me on the bed to have it taken I was feeling a bit funny because of the place well I was alright having the blood taken although my vein started to collapse so that wasnt much fun but with a bit of squessing and pushing god knows what else she managed to get it all from one arm before the vein completely gave up the ghost. I'm back home with a sore arm and taking it easy. She said the results will take at least four weeks if not longer and with all the bank holidays coming up I doubt we will hear anything before the end of the year. She did say if and when we get pregnant again they will scan at 7 weeks and then every 2 weeks so that was reassuring. We dont see a fs or anything if the bloods are normal they will just right to us and if not then we will see someone.

I think I should ov this weekend so we going to go for it back to the opks for me I actually feel like I have a bit of control back if that makes sense just hope theres nothing awful in our blood fingers crossed and hopefully next time will be our time.
