[pk2of8]

awww thanks mc...i wish they were symptoms. i don't think so tho. don't think i have a chance this cycle

anyway, what's the whole nub theory anyway?? something about 2 or 3 lines and straight or slanted??? i don't know how to check that...

Poppy- Happy birthday!
Puppycat :wave: welcome
Happy birthday to ryan & connor sorry I missed them
MC- Had a look at your pic but sorry I’m not really sure how to tell
PK- You 1dpo behind me
AFM- Internet dongle is rubbish so freezes when I try to look back at the thread so will have to wait till we move. House we was going to move into fell through as landlord decided he was going to rent it to someone different. Went to view a different one yesterday and although it needs a good paint and clean we gonna take it because it is HUGE. Its all happening really quick now, we only see the place yesterday but we are going to decorate from 10th march- 15th march and then on 15th & 16th we are moving in bit of a shock as I wasn’t expecting to be moving until at least mid-april but I suppose its meant to be…
Long selfish post... sorry
AFM- 5dpo today, put all my late temps into converter and changed them on FF and got my crosshairs and it fits in with pos opk too so I’m quite happy I finally got them but means I got a 30day cycle which is a bit pants… Think we are out this cycle because last time we dtd before last night was on day of ov OH knocked his back out and refused to even do it in my mooncup for me so we totally out.. but suppose there is always next cycle … Would be awkward if I was pg this cycle due to moving house and painting and everything so gonna be painting without knowing if I am or not and then if I not got AF by day of moving will have to test cause I don’t want to be lifting lots if I am cause I’m assuming it won’t be good for baby but its doubtful I will have that worry anyway… was really emotional yesterday about everything but think that cause its my mums birthday on 8th march and I always get upset this time of year am currently hiding in my bedroom on laptop because OH’s brother and his wife are here with their children but they only come here to see dexter and just dump their kids on me to look after… I prob sound like a bitch for hiding but their kids call SIL OH uncle mike but they don’t call me auntie Jodie even though I been with OH for 2 years longer that mike has even been on the scene plus they just don’t even bother with me unless they want to dump their children on me…
Dexter is doing pretty good, I haven’t even held him in the last week cause SIL and my OH fell out... and its awkward because where his waters were gone for over 48hours we not meant to touch baby for an hour after having a cigarette but SIL said that stupid so makes us wait 20mins but by time 20mins is up its almost time for another one… sorry for the big old rant its just haven’t had anyone to talk to while I have been away from here and been getting really stressed…
for all of you missed you all lots! Hope everyone is doing well!

xxxxxx

Thanks for all the lovely welcomes ladies, at the in-laws atm just checking in (I know how these threads can get when you don't check in for a few hours, only 4 pages today so not too bad! lol)

[LEW32]

Hey Mc- I am still thinking Team Blue for you (pretty sure that's what I guessed previously).

Your nub is kinda on the fence IMHO, but still leaning towards team for you

Morning everyone! It is quiet here huh?

22 hours until my ultrasound!!!!!!!!!

 

[LEW32]

Welcome Puppycat!!

 

[Tinkerbellxxx]

MC, still thinking Boy. I'm sticking with that for now That thread had got out of hand, trouble is you see it more and more on here. I only usually voice opinion if it is to help the person posting, otherwise who is it benefiting other than making yourself feel important? Ah well... I have a motto I try to live by, sometimes slip up but I try to speak out of love and a desire to 'make things better' But then again, in trusted company its always nice to have a 'release rant' which yes could be described as bitching its not often but hey, I am human. Sometimes ya gotta offload!

Just having hot tea and ginger biscuits mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

[Jenny Penn]

How very rude of me lol, i forgot to welcome u hunny xxx
Welcome aboard Planet Ding Dong Puppycat
hope u like this thread hun, i am sorry to hear about ur loss and consequent struggles, i really do hope things pick up for u. yes Tink said that i was also on antidepressants, I am on venlafaxine 75mg and so far things have been good albeit for a few ups and downs. I like u suffered a loss, and know awful that feeling is, such a burden. But i would also like to say that i am proof that it can happen again, so i will be keeping eveything crossed for a bfp in the very near future for u. U will have to speak to our resident Dr Tink for more up to date info for the validity of using A-D's whilst TTC/AL. But as far as my knowledge goes, i do know that amitriptyline is by far 1 of the safest to use whilst TTC and PG. I think that the older drugs have had far more research and clinical evidence based on them. And i think that pill belongs to the MAOI group(I think dont quote me). I think the group that needs more caution is the trycylic drugs, with regard to any birth defect. The type that i
am on is known as SSRI, and as the tablet i am on is fairly new, ie less that 12 yrs old. The jury is still out there as far as not enough clinical evidence has been gathered yet. There is the possibilty of it crossing the placenta, but as i was on it b4 falling pg, the dose, i have been told will affect the mother rather than the unborn child. And that, as awful as it sounds the benefits to mother outweigh the child. If the mother risks being at harm/ill health, then that will ultimately affect both. Now that is what i have been told and when i was i was shocked to think the health professionals would think that way. As like u, suffering a previous loss, the child means more to me that i do to myself. So gosh i am waffling here. It is a huge grey area either ways that it is looked at. We will damn ourselves for being on these drugs........But then at the end of the day, if we need them, then that is the best for all concerned. I expect that none of this has made any sense, but if u do have serious concerns about the meds ur on, then try and find a sympathetic GP or try and get some advice from ur local Adult Mental Health Team. Anyways welcome lovely, hope life does get better for u. And remember we are all here as a team ok. Hugs xxxx

hey girls, just got back from costco and sainsburys with Ryan.

Lupine hi honey, sorry the first house fell through but glad you have another now good luck this cycle

Jenny good luck to you also sweety.

PK chart looking good fingers x'ed

 

[coral11680]

oh Dr.Tink I have a question

today I have been getting pains and aches in my belly quite low down and pinching in my cervix area. Also peeing more and it burns a bit. Do you think it's a bladder infection? and should I go to GP or just start drinking cranberry juice and see what happens?

 

[Tinkerbellxxx]

Sounds like the beginning of one Coral, get guzzling. Cranberry if you can, the main thing is you get lots of fluids in to flush it through. If it gets any worse see G.P tomorrow and take a sample x

Hey Lupine, Caz, Jenny, Lew n Phoebe :wave: Lupine rant away, sounds like you have a lot on your plate at the mo! Good news you have a house to go to, it will be nice once its sorted I'm sure! x

Its the big scan week this week then?! Goody x

 

[Tinkerbellxxx]

Oh and Coral? Dr Tink says put your feet up n chillllllll anything exciting in Costco? x

 

[coral11680]

Thanks, I wish I could, I'm cooking a roast dinner and an apple crumble right now!!

Nothing much at Coscto just needed dog food milk bread and eggs as they are all cheap there! went straight in and out. Picked up the Bounty pack at sainsburys. Waiting for my coupon for free huggies pack. I saw them there but dont think i got the voucher yet, did you>? Also found a coupon for free pack huggies newborn nappies from Tesco in my maternity pack I had forgotten about. It needs to be used by the end of this month. I don't usually go Tesco apart from the express and doubt they take it there

 

[mothercabbage]

[Tinkerbellxxx]

Coral to be honest, I need to go through all my vouchers, I haven't collected much yet and I forget what I've got! what's the bounty pack like? x

Popsy, having a good day honey? x

 

[loveybear1]

Poppy666 and Lew32, thanks so much for the babydust! I tested 12 days past IUI and it came out NEG. I am now 16 days post IUI and no period but I am not expecting my period until the (8th. if this is another 33 day cycle) I started my period on Feb. 4th. had IUI on feb. 19th. at 16 days (ovulation) and now it is another 16 days past IUI. I am keeping my fingers crossed. Last cycle I had my period 16 days past my last (1st.) IUI. So I am thinking it will happen again. The reason I think this is because I have period symptoms like mild bloatning, breast tenderness, and cramping. Not uterus cramping but more like ovary cramping. I am trying not to read into it. I won't test till a couple days after my period is due!
