Keep calm Smiler and yeah waiting may be better for you but I'm crap Ive rarely waited I always crack!

I'm off work today, I felt shocking yesterday and this morning. Think I've got a cold but being preg has magnified it! I cannot sleep I pee 5/6/7 times a night! Then cannot get back to sleep. But if all okay it will be worth it. But could not face managing 26 children today. Slept till 9:30 then been veggin on sofa, starting to feel better but exhausted. God sorry I sound like a moaning Minnie! Ignore me I'm truly fine if baby is fine!

Take care Smiler I'm really crossing everything for you x x

 

[lilesMom]

i forgot to answer ur qs gonna ring work today
have to go to doc for bloods and certs and the letter for work, i thought i better read her letter first so i know what i am talking about when i ring um,
no i wouldnt have to quit, but i would have to stay out sick and i dont want to really.
ive worked since i was 15 in real jobs and in babysitting with my sis since i was 9
so working feels more normal to me plus im paying off a loan and being out sick means being down in money a lot, i want my loan gone for when bub comes and if im out sick all preg it wont be. i hate loans and tend to finish um early all the time .
i think they will agree cos if they didnt they either dont get me back at all or they get me back and if anythign happened i would def sue the asses off um. naw i just wouldnt be goin back id say if they dont agree. but what im asking is doable for um
its a big place with a heap of different jobs

 

[Hopeful335]

Think we must have been typing at same time Lilesmom ha ha. Thank you hope your okay. Yes if you get to 12.5 weeks I'd say you're just like anyone else! Crossing my fingers for you for a week on thurs x x

Smiler, Lilesmom's right it could be any of those things x

 

[Hopeful335]

Again same time!! Ha ha sounds a bit more positive lilesmom! Prepare your self work can be a bitch they go what suits them always even in my job! x x

 

[lilesMom]

i wont ignore u hopeful i know the feeling and im out of work, xxx
some days u r just shatttered, we r gratefull to be preg but we r still allowed a little moan when things r tough xxxxxxxxxxxxx it doesnt mean we r not happy to be preg just means that its not all rosy in the garden as my mom would say to be preg
i ws like a wasp yest and ive no idea why. i was feeling really mean and snappy (not my normal) but it was just hormones and thank god its gone today
preg does weird things but wonderfull too ha ha xxx

 

[lilesMom]

ha ha we r clashing
its not the end of the world if they wont agree, i can just about afford to stay out and any money is worth LO
i know they will suit themselves but im hoping having me back wil suit um cos i work in hse and there ir recruitment freeze so we r very short o staff and they cant replace me even if i left so def wouldnt be allowed replace me while sick they even have areas shut down cos of lack of staff s im hoping they will want me back

 

[Smiler82]

Haha post after post kept popping up, all online at the same time...and I'm' the only one who should be working

Hopeful I'm sorry you feel so rubbish but it's all for the greater good! Getting up that many times a night must be awful though, not surprised you don't feel able to teach today! I think a vegging day is totally what you deserve x

Lilesmom well I think it all sounds pretty reasonable and would think they'd want you back rather than not - are they paying you sick pay? If they are it would be better for them to have you back. It is nice not working for a little bit but I agree it feels weird after a while. When I was made redundant, my first 2 weeks I was like a lost puppy, I literally had no idea what to do with myself! Was very strange. I hope you get to go back. Let us know if you get a decision today x

Thanks for all your kind words ladies Have had a bit of a cry this morning and feel better for it. And DH is coming home at 1pm so I'll feel even better after a hug. I haven't had any more spotting yet, I'll see how the rest of the day goes. I might test tomorrow, I don't know. I'm hoping against hope for a temp rise tomorrow. If I get a big one then I might test....but if the bleed, cramps etc were late implantation then tomorrow would be too early still. Gah!

xxx

 

[lilesMom]

a bfn tomor would still not rule u out but if it was me i would have to test in case of bfp but u r talking to the girl who bought loads o cheapies and tested every day nearly from 8dpo even thouhg i knew it was way too early ha ha xxxxxxxxx
keeping my fx for u hon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[Smiler82]

Haha wow 8dpo is super early I was going to wait til 20 dpo if I was late this time!!

If I do get AF, I was looking ahead on my calendar and if I ov before or on cd16 like I did this cycle, then I could still technically fall pregnant in November...won't be able to test til December but when I think of it like that it doesn't seem too long to wait. PMA!PMA!

And if I did get pregnant then, I'd be due the same time as SIL's wedding...maybe that is what the wedding card was all about, lol xx

 

[lilesMom]

i never go beyond 14 dpo anyway chick so its different for me i suppose
but yeah 8 dpo was ridiculous to be testing , i juts couldnt stop myself
u have lots more patience than me hee hee xxx

 

[lilesMom]

so next cycle would still be nov im hoping its this one though but failing that next one be good

 

[Smiler82]

Lilesmom I usually get AF around 14 or 15dpo too, but I said to myself that I would leave it til 20dpo if AF didn't show. Just because clomid can extend your luteal phase by a couple of days, so didn't want to get too excited if she was late. But then I let myself get excited before she was late anyway, such an idiot

 

[lilesMom]

ur not an idiot , its totally normal its something we really want, we r bound to get excited fx for u sweetie xxxxxxxxxxx

 

[Smiler82]

Pretty sure AF is on the way now...spotting seems to be getting heavier Seeing DH cheered me up though, amazing how much a hug can make you feel better eh I think we may actually have DTD too much this cycle so we agreed we are just going to keep to every other day as soon as AF has buggered off lol

Hope you ladies have been having nice relaxing days xx

 

[Hopeful335]

That's poo Smiler I'm really sorry. Dh & I did that a few cycles and didn't drop on. I know doctors disagree but mine said you can do it too much & every other day was better. Dh & got used to my ov pattern and left it until nearer time then when opk started to get pos we did it ever other day and then if poss twice on day we though was ov day. But this time I have to say we only did it once the whole time and I got preg! After mc we wanted to try but not push it & getting preg off one time we decided it was clearly meant up be!

I am feeling a bit better. I'm hoping being I'll is that my body is putting everything into bubba and not me?!! Not going to work tom. I'm gonna look after me and get properly well!

How's everyone else? Discoria you've gOne quiet, withlovemom? x x

 

[lilesMom]

smiler bags , but hopefully u still catch in nov xxxxxxxxx
i think ur right u can over do it too, it would wear u out and can decrease sperm quantity cos they dont have time to replenish. xxxx
fx for really soon honey , xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

hopeful ur so right , rest up adn feel better xxxxxxxxx

im still unsure botu work, i was in the doc office so long waiting, it was too late to ring my boss when i got out, will ring in morn xxx

 

[Smiler82]

Thanks Ladies AF well and truly here, feeling pretty sore this morning

Yeah at both my clomid scans the docs said just DTD every other day. But I disagreed and we did it more, and clearly not fallen yet. So thought may as well try taking things a little easier and seeing if that works. It's just luck though isn't it...with my 1st pregnancy I fell after DTD once in about a fortnight! Second time I fell we DTD like 3 times in one weekend. You just never know!

Hopeful I think you're exactly right, your body is working so hard to help your baby grow and develop, your needs are secondary haha I'm sorry you feel so crappy but I'm sure it's a great sign everything is progressing as it should. What time is your scan tomorrow?

Lilesmom any news re work? xxxx

 

[Hopeful335]

Hi Smiler Sorry you feel rubbish!!! I know how disheartening it is i was there for 15 months and ypu feel more sad with each negative! But like you said Nov could still be your month!!!!

My app is 8:45am so nice and early! I am both excited and dreading it at the same time. Someone on another thread I stalk (read don't comment) just had her 3rd mmc at 11w but baby stopped at 7-it just worried me again. I just cannot imagine going through that again. Having had a normal and a mmc I have to say a normal mc is scary but kinder in the long run!

I just hope it's all okay!!!! Feeling bit better today. Thought I may also have uti so went to doc nothing on dip test but he was adamant urine was cloudy and looked bad (sorry tmi) so is sending off to lab and gave me antibiotics to be on safe side. He also let there is a viral infection going round that is wiping ppl out so I may have that! I'm going back to work tom provided all good with scan!

 

[Smiler82]

Thanks Hopeful I do hope Nov is our lucky month Been ages for us too, has been 2 years since I last actually fell pregnant, and before that was my mmc and a year before I even fell pregnant with our first. Harumph

Oh no, I am so sorry to hear about another lady having a mmc. I truly hope this does not happen to you Hopeful, I agree the natural mc was easier in many ways than the mmc

But let's not talk about such things...just glad your appt is nice and early and got everything crossed you get to see your bonny bouncy baby
