    Hey girlies...

    Shirls..forgot to congratulate you on the big move! Exciting times ahead. I know what you mean about being Miss Organised. I research and plan everything down to the last. I drive OH crazy because he is so laid back.

    BOB...why should you resign???? I now things are rubbish but it's not fair that you should be place under so much pressure. I agree that life is too short to make yourself sick with stress but you have worked really hard for your position. Let's hope that the pinning down of OH goes well. Lots of babydust to you image

    Jay...I can't believe you are 15 weeks. That's crazy. You are more than a third through your pregnancy. I swear that my belly is showing and although I haven't put much weight on my hips are putting on weight ( or maybe that's the box of quality street I devoured last week)

    Laura...thanks for your help the other day. Sticky blood , Anti Ro and La and antiphospholipid thingies (am rubbish with medical terms) have all come back negative. Yeah!!!

    Good news on the weight loss girls. I will never fit into my wedding dress at this rate. Thank goodness we can announce we are pregnant at our wedding. I can just imagine people wondering why i let myself go for my wedding and put on instead of losing it! Getting married at Registry office in just under 4 weeks!

    I feel rough as hell and am willing myself to get some dinner. The bean is punishing me for drugging it at the weekend! :lol:

    Well Frecks I can't carry on as I am so I have to get out or put up with it........those are the options really and I know what you mean but life is too short to be miserable everyday of your life......

    So you'll be 10 weeks at your registry office wedding - will you tell them or wait until the November wedding? How exciting my gosh it is all happening! The BFP's come up when you least expect it! I saw Sparkles got her after they stopped trying due to a house move and hey presto BFP! Maybe as now is such a sh*t time for me I'll get mine! Stranger things have happened I suppose! I'll ahve no mat leave if I leave work but after everythign I've been through I won't give a hoot!

    Well I tried to pin dh down this afternoon but he was having none of it and has promised tonight we will bd - men! Anyway I suppose with all my toilet activity I'm not exactly sex on wheels right now so I can't really blame him :lol: hopefully my eggy will hang in there and we might catch it tonight!

    Sex on wheels image hahhahahahaha BOB you do make me chuckle. So did you manage to pin him down last night?

    Frecks - if your oh is anything like me dh then he wont be able to keep his trap shut and people will find out!!!! So as long as you make it clear to oh that you dont want people knowing until the wedding then you should be ok. I think the men just get really excited and want to tell people but dont understand the reasons as to why you shouldnt tell people before the 12 week scan.
    Oh and you may feel as though you are getting bigger but you probably dont look as though you are! My clothes got really tight on me very early on but when i said to my mum about it i dont think she believed me as she said i didnt look as though i was any bigger.

    You are good Shirls being so organised. I'm miss laid back usually and dh always gets annoyed with me about it as he is mr organised and always on time! I'm obviously always late! haha

    How are the rest of the golden girls today? xx

    GGRRRRRRRRR ..... I'm hopping mad today - subversive boss has it in her head that I am going to disappear and have babies any minute now (I have not told ANYONE in my office about ttc), and now she's cutting me out of all emails, and calling one of my assistants to tell me to do stuff!!! I'm laughing about it today because I have been here 16 years and I know the beast I am dealing with - but GOD HELP ME if she ups the stakes when I get my BFP - I think I'll strangle the biatch LOL. sorry BOB - not quite on your scale of harrassment, but I can see it heading that way for sure!

    BOB - I totally agree, there is only so much fighting you can do hun - if it's affecting your health then get the hell out, and take them for everything you can!

    LMAO re sex on wheels ... love it!

    Frecks how exciting re your wedding... I love a good wedding. I hope you have an amazing day..! So you are having 2 weddings?? LOL - sorry, I'm more of a bronze girl so still getting to know the backgrounds ..bear with me image

    J - I'm never late for anything - apart from work LOL! I have lists about making lists ... anal isn't the word!

    Hi everyone! Sorry i'm getting really good at the disappearing acts! Have just had a quick read to catch up with everyone, hate using other peoples computers so have to make this quick! Hopefully getting laptop back at the weekend. So quick catch up... You'll remember that i started bleeding again a couple of days after af finished well that didnt stop until cd 19 (now cd22) so went ahead and got smear today and saw the doc when i was there. She thinks i've got a tyroid problem and anemia and also found out today i've got carpel tunnel syndrome which is why i've been dropping things and my hands dont feel like my own! Straightening my hair this morning took so much effort i thought there was something really badly wrong so thats a relief! So i went in with bleeding and numb hands and ended up having blood tests for everything! Hormone levels are also being checked as explained about ttc. She said her gut feeling was i may have had an early mc even though pg tests came up neg with the way i described the bleeding and pain but theres no way of telling. Think i'm just relieved to know that there is an explanation for the tiredness and all the crying i've managed to do over the past few weeks. I really thought i was going a bit mad. Sorry about the ramble but had to get it out!

    Freckle i'm so happy all ur tests came back negative except your BFP of course! I'm sure seeing your little ones heart beating was amazing especially after everything. Laughed at your thingies bit, i say stuff like that in work too! Especially when theres a word that takes to long to work out how to say it! Not long to go now to the big day! xxx

    BOB i hope your ok hun, this might not go down well but do what is best for you, Life is too short to spend your working week miserable. This whole situation is making you sick and your too good for that. That ass should pay for what hes doing to you but not at the expence of your health. Thats more important than any job. Sending you lots of good vibes and get well soon so you can jump that hubby of yours! xxx

    Jay... Your bump is lovely! It is a proper baby bump and you do not look like youve ate all the pies like you said last week! Looking forward to seeing it progress! And good for you for learning to post pics! I havent even attempted putting up an avatar!

    BC and shirls hope your good, have to run now but will catch up with you girls soon. Shirls hope you get the work stuff sorted out. Dont let it get you down. xxx

    Speak soon ladies, take it easy xxx

    Oh Shirls any grief at work is annoying given that we spend half our waking days there! Who do these people think they are??? They are inscure little pr*cks that's what I think! image

    Well yes I did manage to pin down dh last night - or rather he did me!!! Anyway I took my temp this morning and didn't ov yesterday according to that so we're up again tonight - dh is well excited - NOT! Poor thing is exhausted with me having ov'd so late!

    Ahhhhhhh love the bump Jay - but I can see how with your clothes on you look like you've eaten all the pies! No offense - you're at that in-between stage for a -clothes on' bump, definitely agree though clothes off = a baby bump! Give it 2 weeks though you'll be all out there, clothes or no clothes! So where are the other scan pics hun? And are you going to let us in on uploading pics - I have no clue how to do it but I think you need to post them on a site right to do it? I'd love to see them!
    So who took the pic in the office ms Jay???? Hhhhhmmmm - secret admirer??? Dh's toe sucking friend popped in for tea???? Naughty girl! OMG I must still be oving - mind in the gutter again! I think I just created a porno in my head!!!! image

    Oh laura - Did you post about your other bleed? Did I miss it? I didn't know you were having some odd things going on - I hope it all comes back normal for you. When did she say the results will be back? Blimey what a bunch we are! We're all falling apart!

    Thanks for all the good vibes girls, I am starting to feel better although I still can't eat without a visit to the toilet shortly thereafter - tmi I know! image

    I do think that the complaint against me though will be dismissed after I met with HR today as there is no basis for it and I have witnesses to back up what I said - so that one's a no go. It's funny the HR guy started asking me about her performance and had she been performing and had I put her on a performance improvement plan, which I had unofficially with the other manager as I wanted to get her to improve without going through the official route, anyway it made me wonder if this was her way of getting out of that? My dh suggested it but I really didn't think too much about it until the HR rep started asking too and as I ran him through some of the issues I thought hhhmmm maybe that has something to do with it, anyway I'm glad that I talked to the other manager about it as she will back me up. I just have to wait and see what they will do about my boss now.

    Well I'm going to sit with dh and get some down time (so he can get some -up' time tonight). Keep well my lovelies and roll on 'pie bellies' for Shirls, Laura, BC and I. xxx

    Laura hun...I didn't realise that you had bleeding! I really hope that everything is okay. I'm sure you have good contacts and you know at least what tests they are running and why. My cousin had a problematic thyroid but only discovered it when she started having tests because she wasn't getting pregnant. She has a gorgeous little girl now!

    Jay....that bump is amazing!!!!!!!!! But I am absolutely in trouble if I have a bump that size at 14 weeks. I will defo not fit into my dress. But who cares. I'm still able to button my trousers but I now feel like I have two watermelons about to explode in the place of boobs. I wanted to write on here last night but I was so wretchedly sick with "morning" (yeah right) sickness I had to go to bed. Woke up in pain during night so wrecked this morning.

    Bob...good news about the complaint. Don't you give up without a fight. Fingers crossed for tonight and lots of baby dust!!! You must be about to ov as you are doing your "dog on heat" thing image

    Shirls.....in a nutshell .....OH and I accepted a job transfer to Dubai in July, got engaged early August, decided to get married before we went late August, found out we were pregnant early September, arranged the registry office in Manchester for October (in case we got preggers- you can't be unmarried and have a bun in the oven in Dubai-good thing we did!!!) and we are having a blessing with family and friends in November. My parents have banned me from callling them unless it's to talk about the weather. They have been so shocked by all the announcements. My mother is starting to freak a bit about my Lupus which is annoying me because they are not acting too overjoyed by my pregnancy. I know they are just worried. Do anyone else's parents not ring them often. I rang my mother to tell her and then I didn't hear from her for two weeks and I rang!!!! Can't figure it out.

    Anyway girlies, have a brill day!!! Lots of babydust to all you BDers ;\)

    Afternoon girls...

    Got a bloody horrible headache today .. not in the best of moods - but coming on here always cheers me up, there are soooo many BFP's this week!! This month must be lucky for us BFP seekers image

    WOW Frecks, you don't hang about do you?! I love it!! So when are you actually going to live in Dubai then?

    As for mothers... mine doesn't call me at ALL (in dark times I think it's because I'm the only one who hasn't given her a grandchild out of us three sisters) .. but I'm used to it now - so I bit the bullet and called her last night, and yes, the first thing out of her mouth was "got anything to tell me yet?" ... aaarrrggghhhh!!!!

    LOL BOB - I hope you get pinned down again tonight ...I've a good feeling about this month for you!! As for the work situation, it's as plain as the nose on your face that there is no basis for the complaint against you - don't these people have anything better to do with their time?!

    So sorry you are going through the mill at the moment Laura - at least you've had a proper MOT now, and you know what you are dealing with - fingers crossed all of the results come back just fine, and you can crack on with the matter at hand image

    J - I'm stalking your bump picture LOL - It's just awesome to think of your LO growing in there - can't wait to have one (even thought I actually do look like I've eaten all of the pies already) ...!

    CD10 for me today ... come on CBFM ... work your magic..!

    Hi Girls well I am mis-er-able today.... Not sure why other than I have to go back to my cr*ppy job tomorrow and the HR investigation came to nothing at the end of last week - they said they can't substantiate my claims - which I know for a fact is complete bull, as the girl in the UK told them everything - so they are big fat liars who are out to protect the company. Surprise surprise. So I will gather my ammunition and see if I can sue them. The only thing they did do is put him on a communication improvement plan; oh and I am on one too after my complaint - that seems fair doesn't it? I was sooooo angry I could spit! They couldn't substantiate that I said what my employee said I said either, and it wasn't even what I said apparently it was how I said it and I ahd a witness who said no I didn't say that and they didn't even talk to her! But oh well let's, liar, not investigate properly and just put everyone on the same plan as obviously that seems like the sensible thing to do right??? And what I -did' was as bad as what he did!!!! :x

    Anyway I am 4dpo according to FF and am totally unconvinced I have managed to even OV this month, I have none of my usual symptoms for OV let alone PG - so I am not holding up any hope at all. I'm putting it down to stress. Very unhappy and with not +ve opk until cd18 it's going to be a long cycle....... :\?

    So how were your weekend's girls? Did you get up to anything fun? I bet Laura was working! Shirls, how's your head? Jay, Frecks and MrsR - how R all the bumps??? BC did you get up to much? Shirls aren't you due to ov soon? BC and Laura where are you at?

    Oh BOB that sucks hun x I tell you what i'll lend you dh's toe kissing friend to cheer you up! x tehe Your boss will get his comeuppance one day. Im a great believer in what goes around comes around....or do you say it the other way round?? Well you know what i mean anyway.
    So if you dont think youve ov'd yet then how come youre mind has been in the gutter again recently?? Maybe youre mind is always in the gutter like mine? hahahahhahahahahaahahaha just kidding xxxxx
    You must have been tipsy on saturday? What do you mean we were on page 3??

    Frecks - i didnt actually spout out like that until i was about 15 weeks so you should be fine hun x Hows the wedding plans coming along? Oh and have you got your kitchen finished yet? x

    Laura - how was work hun?

    Shirls - so did you get loads of bding in this weekend?

    BC - hows things with you?

    DH and I went to the cinema at the weekend and saw The Town. It was quite good from what i remember. I really have got a memory like a fish at the moment! haha
    Quite tired today. Getting up for a pee every few hours really isnt helping and plus ive got a bit of a bad back at the moment so i just cant get comfy properly. Even after a nice long hot soak in the bath i still was aching. Ah well c'est la vie

    So did you all have good weekends? xx

    Morning girls!!

    I'm having a well deserved day off today... Just can't be ar*ed to move!! Can check emails on my phone anyway, so what the hell!

    I agree with J BOB, what goes around comes around.. He'll get his in due course the knobhead! In a funny way, you can draw a line now (unless it continues), and concentrate on YOU again! Here's hoping this will be a surprising month for you Hun!

    J... That's pants re your back ache, I suffer with them too ( having rather large boobies doesn't help!) so I sympathise! I find the heat patches work for me - just a thought!

    My weekend was great! Actually got up early to get to the gym on saturday, followed by meeting my girls for a big shop at makro ... The girls were super cute " you won't be able to lift all this next time, and the only thing on your trolley will be diapers" lol!! We usually go every 8 months or so!

    Yep... BD every day at the wekend, oh even pounced on my yesterday afternoon during eastenders loool!! I am mad though, left my cbfm at his by mistake so couldn't test this morning.. What an excuse to go back today though image. Saved and refrigerated fmu.. But not sure if it will still ask me to test when I switch it on later? Oh the joys!!...

    Well I hope you are all enjoying this miserable Monday.. I'm rolling over and snuggling down to watch good old judge judy image

    Hey everyone! So i'm officially back, got a lovely surprise when i got home from work yesterday when lovely oh handed me a new laptop! Its one of the little ones and so cute! Said it was to cheer me up after everything got on top of me last week. So glad to be back, it was taking way to long to catch up with you all only getting on a couple of times a week.

    Results aren't back yet but am feeling much better today, its been 8 days now since bleeding stopped and am gonna give it my all next month. Dont hold much hope for this month as with all the bleeding i decided not to do ov kit as dont want a horribe 2ww cause i've no idea when i would say af finished! I might be in for a very long cycle this month. If it doesnt happen in october ladies i'm gonna have to give ttc a rest for a while. I told you all a while ago were getting married abroad next year and october is the deadline! I really hope it happens as dont want to have to stop trying after all this time.

    BOB...I hope your feeling better, i really cant believe your work! It just shows they really do care more about keeping up appearances than the wellbeing of their staff. Look after yourself and your hubby cause thats all that matters, your homelife and sanity are much more important than any job so just enjoy spending your paycheck each month as ultimately thats all your there for! 4dpo is way too early to say your out of the running this month! Fingers crossed for you.

    Jay... Work is going much better, had a few days off together last week which helps when working crappy shifts all the time! Oh has a bad back at times and i got him a shiatsu pillow which is brilliant, i'm not sure about using it in pregnancy but i dont think it would be a problem if used properly. It really is brilliant, it massages and uses heat.

    Freckle...How are you? Hows all your wedding prep going? Am sure your getting excited! Its reassuring to hear about your cousin, just a waiting game for test results now. Not sure about your mums lack of phone calls, maybe she is anxious about what your going to tell her next! Did you speak to her more before you told her about being pg? It might be her own way of worrying, some people wouldnt be off the phone and others distance themselves. Hope she comes round as i'm sure you need her at the minute.

    Shirls...Hope your enjoying your day off! Keeping all your energy for pouncing on oh later?! I'm sure he wont mind that you left your monitor behind ;\)

    Have a good day everyone image
