Thanks - I was down in the dumps yesterday...
crisps for dinner, chocolate for dessert...washed down with red wine. But a day makes a big difference back on the hope train and hopefully riding to a BFP 
How's things with you?

Hearty i agree Mondays suck big time!!!
I had to go in this morning at 7 (wayyyy too early for me!) for my glucose test, and got to spend 3 lovely hours at the clinic. They put in a butterfly for the bloods to be drawn every hour but i fell asleep and the needle got jammed in too deep and i woke up screaming in pain yelling get it out!! The whole clinic thought i was insane... Anyway had to get seperate punctures for each blood draw. Managed to get into work around 1pm due to the general strike, no mass transport so the cab took almost 1 hour and set me back 20 euro.... Get into work and we have a prospective client from Iran who decides that since im a woman should not shake my hand or talk to me direct throughout the whole meeting. I almost lost it but my boss begged me to ignore him as this client could bring in lots of money. Bad start to the week if i must say...
Amy i totally get where youre coming from....After my second loss i needed a break and didnt try for 5 months. I focused on my work and getting into shape. I felt more ready after that and i think thats what got me through the first trimester. I dont know about going back on the pill though....Did you have a hard time regulating your period when you first came off??? I used the pull out method as birth control as i couldnt get Alex to go back to condoms.

I presume this is the sort of info you find out at an info eve Nato.
Think each clinic has its own criteria eg age, BMI, crap eggs etc. I'm only just scraping in there on Care Sheffield's rules!
I'm now shitting myself over the FSH results. Dear god I hope they come back normal!
I'm off for a swim to swim out my agression

Vicky, sounds like we are both having one of those days.....I didn't have such a great dr appt this morning, and now have to be monitored. Being sent for a consultation with another doctor, and another ultrasound is being ordered. Completed additional bloodwork this morning too, and have to go back next week again. I might be off of work sooner then I hoped, and I am starting pre-eclampsia......I'm scared to death, and so is OH!! they are already talking about inducing me at 36 weeks.

Nato that made my giggle
Amy I wouldn't rush into making any decision just yet give yourself a bit of time.
Oh god mel that sounds scary thinking of you
Vicky ow and sorry monday has not started well hope tomorrow is better.
Sugar good luck with the results and hope you had a good swim.
AFM: well I've had some brown spotting today is it possible its due to implantation I think I'm about 7 dpo, do I dare get my hopes up. Now my other problem is my eating hasn't been great lately and trying to get back to healthy eating but its been a bit slow also I know I've lost weight so have been trying to put it on if I were possible pregnant could that and the bad eating hurt the baby.

Evening all my we have been having some crappy days today.
Amy - I would give it some time and maybe think about other methods rather then the pill. When you do decide to TTC it will only delay things waiting for all the chemicals to get out your system. xxx
Vicky - So sorry to hear about your troubles, can fully understand why you are both worried but it sounds like your doctors are on the ball and will be looking after you both xxx
Meg - Glad you had a nice nap babe and yeah for the
- well i think its yeah lol
Sugar - Good luck with the test results and enjoy your swim.
grandbleu - Sorry the
got you hun but the wine and chocolate sounds lovely.
Nato - How you doing pidge?
I know i missed some peps so sorry ladies hope you are all well xxx
Anyone that wants to add me on facebook my name is Rachel Blakemore and i have this as my profile pictures:

Make sure you let me know you are from B & B though so i dont ignore you lol. I am also up for the crimbo cards, dont make mine i have them printed though. PM me if you want to swap cards and i will send you my address xx
Well went to the hospital and had 11 vials of blood taken to Daves 4! Just got to wait to hear from the FS now. Booked in for a D & C on sat as this was the soonest they could book me in. Started cramping a bit today and got pinky CM so not sure i will make it until then. The worst bit today though was at telford EPU they share the same space as matenity so all the ladies were there waiting for there booking in appointment. I should have had my tomorrow and the difference was very glaring, felt like i had salt in the wounds and having it rubbed in my face what i had lost again. It was all a bit much and i had to sit on the very edge of the waiting area with my back turned to all those happy people. Otherwise not doing to bad.

Sorry about the crap Monday everyone.
Monday's truly blow. I have to work late today for some yearly training and I'm already dragging. I will join you girls on the not sleeping well front, as well.I was awake in the middle of the night thinking I could smell burning and had to examine the house! I have also had really bad, vivid dreams the past two nights. I hope that's a good sign, because as of now I'm feeling no pregnancy symptoms at all. It's like nothing's going on in my uterus at all.
Lucy, that sounds soooo promising. Didn't you have implanation bleeding the last time you were pregnant?
Mel, I'm off to go read your journal.
Amy, I would wait a bit and see how you feel once your hormones are back to normal. Enjoy your week with hubby! You deserve it.

Im good thanks Bleu - the witch arriving always gets me too, but due to my incessant peeing on sticks i usually have a good idea shes arriving. The christmas baby train is choo chooing your way.
husband has been away for a week now, ive gone feral
sugar - when do you get your fsh test results back? they are really scary, theres no denying that - best of british to you. I think im too old to give my decrepit eggs away.
ach Vic, what a morning. I had the same happen to me with a canula in A&E when i started bleeding. I didn't get ignored by a client though. The fine line of cultural respect vs the suffragettes. Always a toughie
Mel, I'm sorry bebe, but......this is the best case for your condition because you are monitored and they are aware of the situation. You and minimel WILL be ok. They will look after you x
Luce - implantation bleeding!!!!!!! You are supposed to be waiting till March. Stop beating me. Eyes crossed for ya
Raz, that picture is just adorable and making me think i should give up on babies and start on puppies.
The EPU isnt the best place to go, but its also the best place to go. Its just a total bitch that there isnt a side door for us to use. You're being very strong and brave - big hug xx

Raz, your doggie is just beautiful. He (she?) totally made me smile. 
Vicky, you seem to encounter a lot of sexism at your job, and that would drive me crazy!!! I don't blame you for getting angry one bit. But yeah, cultural blah blah. It still makes me mad.

Lucy, maybe you should start temping so you know what's going on? I know I find it stressful sometimes but it can be really useful in the 2ww. I'm assuming you've had progesterone checked before, right? And luteal phases aren't normally a problem for you? If not, then even the cramping sounds promising. I cramped like crazy before I got my BFP.

Thanks for all the lovely comments about my puppy, her name is Raina and she is 1 1/2 years old. She is such a clown and i swear she smiles in pictures If TTC doesnt work out we are just going to be those mad people with lots of dogs.

Yes Allie i do get alot of sexism...It sucks and although im pretty immune by now if im having a shit day it does get to me. I think because my work is in the construction industry its hard for the men involved, they always viewed this sector as their own. Every time ive gone abroad as a consultant for some project ive had to work twice as hard to convince the engineers than any male for sure..
