As For Me-Last night was soo Horrible for me, Its 50 degrees outside & I was drying my exes jeans (no they didn't have a lighter or paper in them) I had washed them to get stains out and didn't ring out the water I just threw it in the dryer the next thing I know I was smelling something weird like a burning smell I go in there because its the only thing that was running and fire was coming out of our dryer I opened it up and BOOM big ball of fire comes out ashes went onto some clothes on the floor and burnt holes in those, my first instint was poor water and poor and poor till its out so I did that, Then I got the girls which only sleep in diapers and put them outside with a blanket over there heads IN FREEZING RAIN weather, I came in opened windows doors and fans turned on, I put them in my car and then turned heat up. Came back inside and made febreeze and lysol bombs I put tape on the handles and sit them in each room and went to sit in the car with the girls (which got awakend by smoke and fire alarms and me) then I brought them upstair put them back in bed cuz the smoke was gone but the smell still stinked not too bad though. My 2 year old went back to bed right away, My 1 year old WAS UP ALL NIGHT SCREAMING! she wouldnt take her milk or food or nothing just screamed so I let her do that in bed, She woke my 2 year old up at 3 so I had no Sleep today!!!!

KL - massive :pray: for you hun :hug:

Sounds like quite an evening baby. If it wasn't a lighter, then what caused the fire?

Can anyone tell me whether or not on a O strip, if there's 2 lines, but the second line is lighter than the control line, that means negative, right? It also says best time to test is between 11-3, and 5-10, and I did mine at 3:30... should I do a second one later tonight, or just wait until tomorrow? Thanks!

Ruthie - so sorry to hear about your parents.:pray: really hard for them and hope they will be ok.

Jen - m/s is so bad, didn't come to work yesterday! slept till
3pm and then was up all night. Nothing seems to help, just sleep:wall:

Hi Jen805, I haven't posted much on the boards at all except after my miscarriage, but can answer this one I think!

If the second line is lighter, you haven't had your LH surge yet. The LH surge usually occurs early in the morning (ie in the hours after midnight), and it can take up to 8 hours for the LH levels to show in the urine sample, which is why its best to test during the day (the ones I use say between 11 and 3). If I had your result, I would probably test at 11 tomorrow morning (that said, I am impatient and this month when I had a lighter line I did one later that night - still light).

What usually happens to me is I have two days where the line is light (so 'negative') and then after that I'll get a definite 'positive'. I'm sure there's no science to it, but I kind of take the lighter lines as an early warning system that the LH surge is a-comin'.

Hope this helps!

I'm in tears.. sobbing.. NAME IT! !I'm BLEEDING!!! OMG NOOO.. OMG my 3rd miscarriage??.. No.. I can't.. I can't with this!! OMG NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Someone make it stop!! PLEASE!!

I called my 2 best friends and they don;t answer!!.. What do I do??.. hubby is not home yet and I have not one red cent!!.. DAMN it WHY ME???? I want this baby so bad!! I worked so hard!!!

Guess go to ER....

Hi Ruthie - how incredibly scary for you. Take a deep breath. Try to focus on what you need to do RIGHT NOW. I suggest that you get someone to drive you to the ER - you're too upset to take yourself. Try to breathe deeply and slowly. This may be the bleeding that lots of women experience. Yes it may be a miscarriage, but lets cross that bridge if we get there.

Sorry I'm not one of the regulars here, but I am praying for you...:hug:

Ruthie - meant to ask - do you have any pain?

Ruthie--Oh, no, hon! :hug: Ok, is there anyone else you can call that can take you to the ER? Stay off your feet as much as possible until you can get to the ER... don't give up yet, Ruthie! Stay as calm as possible-- I know, I know, it's so hard and you're so scared, but you have to think about your baby and just try to relax! I'm saying so many :pray: for you and your little one! :stickyvibesgirl: :stickyvibesboy: :hug: :hug:

:hello: BytheOcean! Thanks so much for the info on the O strips! :hug:

Ruthie - OMG we are all :pray: for you, don't stress too much yet. If you haven't had any extreme pain you may be ok. Get yourself to the ER now!!!:hug: and :pray: we are all here for you

Ruthie

Just wanted to say I am :pray: for you and try to remember that whatever happens it is out of your control and that it is nothing that you have done.

It is normal for some women to bleed during their pregnancy so try to stay clam until you get some answers. I know its a hard time but please dont give up. I am here if you need someone to talk to.

Hi ladies,

Since DH and I will be ttc again after AF stops I have been thinking about my blood tests from the FS. My blood test for anticardiolipin antibodies was a low positive but the FS said not to worry about it however it is concerning as I dont want to have another miscarriage.

I have been reading some studies about taking baby asprin to help reduce the anticardiolipin antibodies and thought why wouldn't the FS tell me to take it just in case. Just was wondering on your thoughts?

Thank you

We still don't know what caused the fire and wont know tomarrow, There was no lighter in the jeans no paper just a normal wash. theres over 10 deaths and 10 injerys each year due to dryer fires.. We had the matnince people confuesd on what caused it.

Sorry to hear about your fire but glad that your all okay with your quick thinking and using the car as a safe haven for your children. Hope it didn't do to much damage :doh:
