Hi girls
Have been sitting on the PC surfing the net, procrastination, supposed to be studying, looking at options for my 40th in July. Any ideas?
Saph - I"m sorry darl. I hope you're wrong (and HPT's can be wrong!) and that you get a surprise tomorrow. If not, I hope that you can move on swiftly to the next step. Hang in there.
Babysteps - welcome to the 2WW! Yes, apparantly we are supposed to ignore all the symptoms :rolleyes: Still, I think we are supposed to go mad during this time.
Loops - this whole process puts a strain on the relationship, that's for sure. I hope you and DH are able to come to some sort of peace, but it isn't easy, I know.
Spring - maybe you should start a macrame craze? Haven't seen that ***** since the 70's. Clean out some cupboards? Re-organise a room in the house? All the best to you in the crazy waiting game.
HEy to all my other friends in here - WLAB, BDT, Aleenta, Rob, and anyone I have missed....I can hear DH's car pull up and I have to at lest pretend to be studying.....:shhh:
-
Grrrr - just posted a reply to everyone - and hit the wrong key and ended up on page 6 ......
Im getting tired so I will log on 2morow and post it again
Sweet dreams girls

Popping in to see how you are Saph, have you had any news this morning ?
Hopeing its good news for you
Hi lovely ladies
-
Good morning all,
Saph - What did the test say today?
Loops - Sounds like you are going throug a tough time. I'm sure it's just a rough patch. This kind of weather, plus the strain of IVF can do it to any couple. Hang in there.
Babysteps - Welcome! Hope the sympoms are for all th right reasons. Best of luck for Tuesday. That's also my DH b'day. I'm hoping it is a fantastic day.
Neptune - Macrame? Don't think that's for me. However... cleaning is something that I can do that takes my mind off everything. I think you're onto something! It's just so hot its hard to get the motivation to start!
AFM - Still no sign of anything happening. No sore BB, no cramping, no nausia, no NOTHING! I feel completely normal ARGH!!!!
Here's a situation for you. If you are invited out to say, a staff social gathering and everyone is drinking, except you and they ask why, what do you say? Every time I say it's because I'm on medication they say, "What, are you pregnant?"
Why don't they believe me? (ok I'm not the best lyer) and what should I maybe say instead? I don't want them to know.
Enjoy your weekend gals

Spring ... You can say you are on a de-tox, trying to loose a few kilo's, or had a big nite the night before and could not handle one more drink !!
The other day, I had a lemon/lime/bitters and everyone just assumed it had vodka in it ..
AFM: I would lurrrve a vodka .. I am crampy and feeling very pre af - I am all but counting myself out, I have no faith this cycle has worked, in fact I just rang the clinic, and asked the protocol for swapping over to another fs within the clinic.. I am not feeling the love with this one, and I know I am going to have to try again ..
-
Wouldluvabubba - I wish it was that easy! It would be nice for a drink right about now. Oh, how good would a fruity ****tail be, Sex on the Beach!!! ...the drink I mean.
-
hi spring,
that is the worst situation and people always say "are you pregnant'' to the smallest thing ... i feel unwell today "are you pregnant''; i don't want to drink '' are you pregnant''. i think its the rudest question ever, what a personal thing to ask someone whether or not they are going through what we all are.
but i would just say the same as WLAB and say you are on a xmas detox or fitness bend and don't really feel like drinking. if they ask if you are pregnant i would say "no are you?'' or if its an older woman say "no why, are you going through menopause?'' or such. i know, i know, that's really *****y and i probably would feel bad if i said it to someone but that question really bugs me.
but sometimes, when i get asked and i don't like the person i just say "oh no we can't have kids but thanks for asking...'' that shuts em up.
We have our FET at 3pm Monday. fingers crossed.:rolleyes:
love to all. hang in there girls.
ps just in case you can't tell, i'm in a cranky mood today. sorry. :wall:
sticky vibes for alll .... :pray:
-
WLB - I so hear you I am dying for a nice cold beer, at least I will confirm that I can have one tonight. Went back and looked at tests again and there is still faint lines but not as dark as on thursday, so think it is still the pregnyl in my system.
I am also looking to change FS after this cycle but I will also be looking to change clinics as well. let you know how I go. Mine is not because I dont like FS ( if fact he delivered DS andi nannied for his children when I was at uni) it is just that the clinic is an hour away and we have a clinic five minutes around the corner. The travelling is killing me.
I have to tell you what a bad person I am, my best friend is TTC #1 and she has just started, she was due to find out if this was her month this weekend, but AF came a week ago and I secretly was glad that it didn't happen for her either. I am sure if it had happened for her I would have been over the moon, but at the moment I am having the why is it not happening for us what did we do wrong. We have been TTC #2 for 18months, we try so hard and get nothing and then there are these people out there who kill there kids, it is quite upsetting. Sorry for the vent. i have got it off my chest now and I feel a little bit better.
-
:crossfingers::crossfingers:ANGE.. hang in there hun and ill have that drink for ya im :pray: like mad hun that you dont get that drink for the next 8 months ok
and sex on the beach really does sound good and not the drink pmsl ill have that for you to ok :rofl: please dont give up hun be strong and know im always thinking of you your gonna be a wonderful mummy very soon .
PS.. hun about the new fs you know thats what we did and im so happy we did it i feel so much better with this fs so if you think that can help then go for it hun you have to feel like your wanted and not just a number so to speak
-
sending some sticky vibes to all in TWW. good luck
-
WLAB - :hug: I hope you're wrong. Remember, many women feel very pre-AF and turn out to be BFP, so there is still hope! Hang in there. When is your BT??
SAph - Good luck, hope you get some good news :goodluck: I know just what you mean about your friend, and it doesn't make you a bad person. I have a friend, not very close, she's one of my husband's friends ex-wife, but I chat to her on facebook etc. I heard on the grape vine that she is PG after one month of trying with her new partner. I cannot bring myself to ask her about it because I just feel awful about it. Seems unfair.
Hayley - Good luck for your FET Monday :crossfingers:
Spring - I could sit on the beach and watch the waves roll in, but sex on the beach would be far too much for my libido to handle ;) A nice cold beer would do me at this moment *sigh*
Hi to JBM and Smithy :welcome: Thanks for popping in.
AFM: Nothing to really report. Feel normal now. Occasional light streaky spotting still happening, but I think that's just me, honestly. Last Pregnyl tomorrow and BT 9th Feb. Went for a lovely swim this morning...that's okay in the 2WW right? Getting my essay done, but hate it with a passion!
-
Saph: sorry this cycle isnt your one .. have your nice cold beer tonight with dh, you derserve it, a new clinic 5 mins from home, will be a much better thing for you, specially with your ds, we r under enough stress as it is. A IRL g/f of mine was TTC since Feb this year, and got preg in Nov, Its such a difficult situation, you are happy for them, but like everyone, you think, why .... ? Why cant it be me ??
Smithy : Thanks sweets for popping in to see me ... have fun with the sex on the beach...;)
Neptune and Aleenta - Babysteps and Loops - you girls are quiet today ?
-
I must have replied just before you???
-
Neptune : We must have ... HA ! I rang the nurses and they said swimming at the beach is fine in the TWW...Im on facebook as well, pm me your name if you like and I will add you if you like ?
-
Well got the official BFN so off to the bottle shop for that n ice cold beer,mmmmmmm.
What next for me well rubella needle on monday and then 28 days of the pill and then we start again. Thanks everyone for the good wishes.
-
Saph sorry to hear about the Bfn. Enjoy your nice cold (and I hope the next cycle has a positive result for you.
Spring, I've used the detox and weight loss excuses, at the moment I have been drinking lime and soda. Most people assume there is vodka in there.
I am keeping myself busy, I worked today so that helps keep mind off the tww.
-
Saph : Did the FS prescribe the pill for you ? Or are you taking it b/c of the rubella immun, and you dont want to risk pregnancy. If it where the latter, I would assume you would be better not taking the pill, I wouldnt want to risk it stuffing up my cycle's after I stopped it ... ? Or have you had advice to the contrary ?
Sorry to hear you got the official bfn :comfort:
-
Hi girls,
Saph - really sorry to hear this one didn't work out. Enjoy your beer - it's certainly the weather for it!
WLAB - hey don't give up hope yet - you just never know. I did exactly the same as you last week had a LLB and everyone just presumed vodka - it's a good trick.
I concur with all the comments around are you pregnant - worst question ever, and surprisingly I find it can come from men in the workplace as well. I'm thinking along similar lines to you Hayley - next time a man asks me that I am going to say "do you have a small d*&k? And as they look at me as if I have just said the most inappropriate thing in the world, and before they can respond, I will say, It's no fun being asked a really inappropriate question is it? Probably will never do it but it makes me feel better thinking that's what I would say...
Neptune - swim sounds like a good idea, am sure it is fine in TWW - no different to having a bath or shower. And great to hear you are sounding upbeat.
AFM I am living in a deluded state that I may be pregnant, I am aware this could bring bad consequences such as huge disappointment but it's kind of fun as well. Bought some hpt's today so they are there waiting for when I just can't hold out any longer. Originally I was thinking Monday but I am now thinking maybe tomorrow??
Having a quiet one home tonight,
Bye for now
