    Hello lovely ladies!
    Sorry i've been mia again! Its taken me ages reading through the posts and catching up with you all! My laptop is completely dead so really have to get that sorted! Things are still really weird down below, still got dark brown staining on off but its really dry now. Not sure whats going on. No positive on ovk either but if last month is anything to go by its still too early. My docs contacted me about my smear being due and its booked in for next wed which would be right after i think i might ov. Should i go or reschedule for after af finishes next cycle?

    BOB i cant believe what happening in work, i know your strong and will get through it so keep your chin up in the knowledge that you have done nothing wrong and do your job well. I know its easier said than done but i know you can do it. Great news on your hubbys new job too, the start of great things to come!

    Jay i cant believe how fast the time is going! You'll have your big baby bump in no time. I would have to find out the sex too, i'm not good at waiting at all! Sending you lots of pink vibes!

    Freckle... I dont know how your dealing with everything at the minute! You are our very own wonder woman! I'm glad telling your boss went well, and think of all the appointments as a good thing. You and your little bambino will get looked after really well and you'll have more scans along the way to keep you reassured.

    BC i know how you feel about the month dragging, i'm trying not to obsess to much this month as almost went completely crazy last month. Were making things up as we go this month as i'm working alot of nights so were just bding when we take the notion and its working wonders for us ;\)

    Shirls hope your enjoying your day off. You'll have a smiley face before you know it. It looks like you and BC are really close in cycle so you can cheer eachother on when its time to smep!

    Have a lovely day ladies xxx image

    Hey girls,

    Only a quick visit. I'm not feeling well at all so hope you don't mind if I write a longer hello later. I think I might be flaring...I have a stabbing pain in my chest and I'm struggling to breathe. Fingers crossed I don't have to go to hospital. Cr*p!

    Was so angry last night with OH. I hadn't eaten all day because I was sick so OH said we would get takeaway(still no kitchen or food). I could have chewed my arm off by eight but OH's friend dropped round and they went for a pint for half an hour across the road. OH said he had ordered the takeaway but at a QUARTER PAST TEN still no food. Then without telling me OH cancels the order because they are taking too long and I end up with no dinner. I nearly killed him. I couldn't believe it. I forgave him though when he nearly started crying because he felt so guilty about nearly starving his future wife and child!

    Anyway, Bob your boss sounds more and more like the world's biggest a*se each day. I'm glad you sound chirpier!

    Have scan on monday image

    I called in sick today - do have a very sore painful throat though. I have had to escalate again as the whole thing is completely conspiratorial and a complete witch hunt. I believe my bosses boss is trying to protect him and I am being asked for more info on the complaint against me even though I have given them a full statement. I am not commenting any further until I have spoken with a lawyer. :cry: Very sad and unhappy today - very very down.

    Despite all of this dh and I bd'd last night as I won't let this spoil a chance for us........

    Really sorry you're not feeling well Frecks, you need to eat more hun. When do you see the specialist about your lupus?
  • Options
    Well ...I should have trusted my instincts. I was taken by ambulance to A&E last night at nine o clock just after stuffing myself with Chinese food. I had a full blown attack and couldn't breathe. They gave me Gas and air in the ambulance but I'll tell you one thing girls....if that's all the relief you get during birth I'm going for an epidural!!!!
    Hooked up to drip and given morphine when we arrived which calmed the pain and my breathing. X ray and bloods didn't show much so I we eventually got home at 2:30 this morning. Poor OH. He had never seen me flare that badly before and I think I frightened him terribly.
    Trying not to think of poor little bean and the stress it went through. I'm such a bad mother giving my child a morphine high at 6 weeks!!! (seriously...they reassured me morphine is okay and I wore a protective skirt for xray) Hoping that it hangs in there with all my heart :cry:

    Going to rest as much as I can now and wait for scan on Monday. Have a good weekend girls

    Bob...I'm sorry that your day was rubbish. Hang in there. Hope you're feeling better today.

    Oh Frecks hun, that's sounds awful. Did they tell you what you need to be doing do? Or give you anything to help? When do you see your own specialist? The one that sees you for your lupus?

    I'm sure your bean is just fine they are very resilient when all things are meant to be iykwim. I am sending over some get well dust for you hun. x

    Evening Ladies,

    Freckle, that sounded really scary, hope you are feeling better today.

    BOB, I bet no one blames you for taking a sick day, with what ur going through at work and the TTC, some time out maybe just what u need.

    Well AF has finally ended and I can now get back on track, although I'm not helping myself much tonight. Got the house to myself while hubs is at a friends and I'm sat here watching Xfactor with a large bag of walkers sensations, Cheddar and Onion Chutney, my fave flavour!! I do weightwatchers and since coming home from honeymoon at the start of Aug have put 7lb on!!! The only pop I have in is pepsi max and I've done really well these past 2wks cutting out caffine. I now have PG tips decaf at work and usually have lemo to drink!

    Think I may pounce on hubs when he gets in to start the ball rolling! xx

    Hey girls...thanks for the support. I feel like I have been hit by a truck. Still in quite a lot of pain but scared to take my painkillers because they contain codeine.

    Bob...they said to go back in if the pain came back but I can't bear hanging about another night in A&E and I don't really want to end up admitted. Seriously getting freaked about the amount of pain I'm in. I see my consultants ( rheumatologist and obstetrician) on Monday. Hopefully they will find a solution. I'm scared because my temperature has dropped. The doc said last night that this was normal but I'm not convinced. :cry:

    Hope you are feeling better hun. Think we both deserve a break!

    Oh Frecks I hope you're not doing too much, make sure you are relaxing hun, way way easier said than done I know, do you have pain breathing? You can take paracetamol right? that should take the edge off a little hopefully. I think though if you are bad they will admit you Monday in any case hun. Maybe you should go in sooner incase you get worse. I would hate for anything to happen to you. :cry:
  • Options
    Freckle whats your symptoms? I know its the nurse in me talking now but i cant help it! If you are concerned at all contact your out of hours GP thats what they are there for. Worried about you hun. If you need anything just ask, i'm not on here as much with the laptop being on the blink but if i can help with anything just say and i'll private mail you my no. xxx

    Hey girlies. Sorry for sounding such a misery guts. Probably feeling way too sorry for myself :\) Thanks for the offer Laura. You nurses are worth your weight in gold. The lady who was with me the other night was fantastic.

    I have pain on breathing (right shoulder and chest) but I'm well used to it. I've had it lots before over the years. If I walk or go up or downs stairs I end up having a mini attack. Lying down is near impossible without massive surge of pain. Thing is...all x rays always show nothing! I've had pleurisy before and this feels similar. Some docs think it could be intercostal muscle spasming.
    I am resting. I fell asleep yesterday afternoon beside the fire when OH went out to get some groceries and it was the best sleep ever.
    The problem with the paracetemol Bob is that I have taken prescription painkillers for ten years. The over the counter paracetmol don't do much for me but that's my own fault. Anyway enough of my moaning. I'm sure the doctors will know what to do tomorrow.

    What are you girls up to? It's pouring rain here. Anyone watch x factor last night? It's my guilty pleasure at the weekend image

    You going to work tomorrow Bob. I think you are being incredibly strong about the whole nasty situation. I would be a blubbering mess on the floor! :lol:

    Ah Laura you are an angel.... :\)

    Yes Frecks I'll be going in tomorrow there are 2 meetings set up one for more info from me, which I have no more to add, and one is an update on my complaint about my boss, which I know will probably go nowhere now after relising that his boss is protecting him - over the weekend I have resigned myself to the fact that I will most likely have to resign although I will be talking to a lawyer tomorrow as she called later Friday but I was so ill I was in bed and dh didn't want to wake me. I have been a wreck really Frecks my stomach is upset, I can't eat anything without it going straight through me, I have this infection and there have been plenty of tears. I loved this job before he arrived an now my life is miserable. I'll be updating my CV today.......

    Because I've been sick dh and I are off the smep now, which I'm annoyed about but I haven't got a +ve opk yet which is the latest I have gone in a cycle without a +ve opk, it makes me wonder if it's stress. Maybe it's because I had such a short cycle last month??? Who knows, anyway I plan on getting back on the smep tonight in any case as don't want to miss my chances. I'm on cd15.

    Boo Hoo - I just watched the time travelers wife - loved it :cry:

    Blimey ladies i've missed loads over the last few days!
    Frecks - how are you today hun? xx What time is your appointment? That must have been soooo scarey being rushed to a&e! Youve got your scan today though right? I am sooooooo keeping my fingers crossed for you that your little bean is holding on in there. I've got a good feeling that it is though!

    BOB - can't you go to your docs and get signed off work with stress because of your boss or does it not work the same over there? HR have GOT to do something about your ar#e of a boss! Anyway enough of that its bding time for you!!!! Dont forget i didnt get my +ive opk until day 16 so tonight might be your night! You'll have to do what i did and tell dh hes not off the hook yet! tehe

    laura - so are you on nights at the moment then? Def get your lappy sorted hun as we miss you xx

    Shirls - where are you now, you seem to have gone mia now!! x

    BC - I watched x factor too! Absolutely love it! Although i must admit i do prefer the audtiions to the rest of the show. I luuuuuurve those sensations crispies too and my fave is that flavour! Do you watch the xtra factor afterwards? I was nearly wetting myself laughing at the woman who was perched on the judges table trying to come on to Simon Cowell! hahahahahaha

    So dh and I had a huge row at the weekend but we've sorted things out now. To cut the story short he was accuding me of not drinking enough water and not eating enough fruit and veg but my point was that he doesnt see me when im working during the day so doesnt know what im eating and drinking! Just because i dont eat a lot in the evening doesnt mean im not eating & drinking enough during the day! I tried to say about women who get morning sickness and he said (now try not to laugh girls) "well that only happens in the morning doesnt it"". Oh how naive he is! I obviously told him that no it can last throughout the day or just happen in the evening etc. I told him he needs to read up a bit more about these things if he doesnt want to sound like a complete t1t!!
    Anyway things are sorted now thankfully, although we didnt have the make up sex afterwards!! Hmmmm might have to have that tonight instead!! heheheheheheheehehehe

    Just a quick visit to let you know that I saw the heartbeat today image
    I'm over the moon. She had to do an internal but there it was on the screen pulsing away.
    My consultants ran a load of tests to make sure everything was okay with my Lupus and it looks like everything is stable.
    Will be having another scan in three weeks time! :\)

    Good to hear from you Jay! Do you find that you and OH are arguing more? OH and I seem to spend most of the time bickering about stupid things.

    Bob ....what's the update on the Knob you work with??? Surely there is someone else that you can contact to complain about this whole conspiracy situation. It's ridiculous and way too stressful for you. I hope you get a lawyer and sue their ass*s ( Isn't that what they say in the movies???:lol: ). Anyway, Jay's right....take your mind off it with a little therapeutic BDing

    So where is everyone up to then? My memory has gone to the dogs!

    Hi girls!

    Sorry - had a mad weekend as it was my best friends 40th birthday on Saturday! Got spoilt in the salon on Saturday, plucked, waxed, haircut and blowdry ... pure self indulgence, but I figure i'm worth the effort image

    OH and I had a talk on Saturday night, I'm moving into his over the Christmas holidays ...woohoooo!! I got there in the end LOL!! He can be such hard work at times, but I love him to bits. Will just rent my place out - it just makes total sense, but why does it take men a while to realise these things LOL..?!

    Freckle - OMFG ... hun are you ok??? (I know, stupid question) I don't really know your history or much about your condition - but I really, really, really hope that you feel better soon..!! Little bean will be right there, just you wait - like bob said they are resilient little things. I hope you get some proper reassurance at your appointments xxx

    Jay ... oh bless him - they really dont have much of a clue do they LOL - at least he gives a sh*t hun - a lot of men wouldnt have even noticed!!! Have fun with the making up tonight image

    BOB - how long have you worked there? I deffo think the stress isn't helping the ov situation - but you can and will get through it. I dont see what other information they need from you, it's like they are trying to interrogate you so that you "slip up" on something that you have previously said! Your HR department should be ashamed of themselves, it's so blatant what is happening. Whatever happened to employee protection?!! Would you consider taking it further even if you found another job? Sounds like you could do with some stress leave - it's making you ill, and that can be dangerous.

    BC - I only caught Saturdays XFactor .. some of those "singers" ... oh dear is all I can say LOL. OH hates any reality tv shows, but he still laughs along when I make him watch it - it's just light entertainment, and goodness knows we all need a bit of that with the world we are living in!

    Laura - know how you feel re the laptop - I have a perfectly working one, but OH pinched my dongle and has it at his house, with my OTHER laptop LOL - so sometimes coming on here is a right chore over my iphone image

    Well I think that's me caught up LOL. It's CD8 today .. can't wait til my cbfm starts asking me to poas!! Altough I'm hoping I ov a little earlier this month! My mum is 60 on October 9th, wouldn't it be great if I conceived that day.. she'd be sooo pleased - was hoping I was going to be able to buy her a grandma card .. but it wasn't meant to be..

    Today has flown by - can't wait to get home, a little too much vino was consumed over the weekend and I'm wilting..

    Evening Ladies

    I'm on CD9 and feeling a bit achy on one side, I wonder if it could be early ov?! Oh well, CD10 tomorrow and my first OPK, feeling a bit excited that I can start to do something proactive.

    How's everyone else today? Did you all survive monday? My mondays are a nightmare at work, the busiest day of the week. Just been to weightwachers and lost a pound! pleased with that really as I havent been good at all these past few wks!!! xx
  • Options
    Oh thats fantastic news Frecks im really pleased that everything is ok and you got to see the heartbeat xxx
    Yep DH and I definately argue more over the smallest things since ive been pg! I mean dont get me wrong we still argued like any other couple would before i was pg but seems to be more silly things now. I think its cos they havent got a clue when it comes to pregnancy though! I bought dh the blokes guide to pregnancy from mothercare. He has read bits of it, which seems to have helped a little but he still assumes things which are usually wrong. Like the morning sickness, thinking we can only get it on the morning! Eerrrrrrr noooo

    Well done on losing a pound BC thats really good hun x especially if youve been naughty recently.

    YAY on the moving in with OH Shirls xx Have you started packing already? tehe

    BOB - hows things with you hun? Did you get your +ive opk yet?

    As for me ladies, well im 15 weeks today but still look like ive eaten all the pies instead of looking pg! Really cant wait for that proper baby bump! I think sometimes i can feel the baby moving but not actual kicks yet.

    Well have a good day ladies xx
  • Options
    YAY Freckle - that's SUPER news - really pleased for you!! Hopefully you will get scanned regularly so you can see little one gorwing awayimage

    well done on the weight loss BC - I started Slimming World last week and am pleased to report a 4lb loss on my first week - I know this will slow down, but it's spurred me on to keep going this week!

    LOL - I'm already making lists J, I am miss organised, and want to have everything done and dusted long before moving day image really excited - at least I wont have to juggle bd'ng once we are living together - now he just thinks there are a few days in the month where I can't live without him LOL ...but of course I will have my BFP by then anyway!

    15 weeks - how time flies.. I love a good baby bump - can't wait for mine either..

    BOB - you ok hun - hope the meetings went as well as can be expected ...???

    Off to see my god-daughter tonight and her newborn sister ... great .... more babies to make me miserable LOL!!

    Hi girls sorry I've been mia, I've been really sick with a stomach flu or something I've been on the toilet after everything I eat and yesterday morning nearly threw up everywhere. I am feeling a little better today and will most probably go into work tomorrow for the first time in a week! I guess I will see how things are, I have kind of resigned myself to the fact though that they most likely will not be doing anything and about my boss and I will have to leave. I spent Sunday, when I thought the worst of my sickness had passed, putting my CV together so at least I have that done.

    How great to see the HB Frecks, that lowers your risk considerabley now - so they say - so that is a milestone right there! So glad all is ok, how are you feeling now?

    Shirls fab news about moving in hun, men are odd sometimes! So did he think you'd wait until you had a baby on the way then???

    Jay 15 weeks!!!!!! Can't believe how time has flown by. I can get signed off for stress but I wouldn't get paid until after October 1st as my sick benefits don't kick in until then - it is all so poorly timed.....

    BC we don't get xfactor here although I think my Mum and Dad watch it in the UK.

    Laura how are you?

    So I did finally get a +ve opk yesterday (cd16) but because I've been so ill we didn't bd, I will try and pin down dh tonight (literally) but have a feeling I'll ov today sometime so not sure if we'll have done it soon enough. That may be me out for this month :cry:
