hi ladies
shelley glad your doing well honey. lets be honest all of us are counting down the days for you and sarah to get those lovely screaming babies in your arms and i'm more than sure you'll do the same for me and theresa xxxxx
sarah glad the mw appointment went well and you heard the babies hb again. its strange that the medical profession doesn't share as much information as you'd expect these days. the consultant was inpressed that i knew so much about ttc and what is needed for myself.
theresa glad you had a good night last night and that was lovely for your friend to sing over the rainbow for you xxxx i'll be on here after 6pm got to do some shopping and finish some of the laundry. not working this weekend its my weekend off but he's watching football in London as we speak. had a lovely time at reflexology today seems i managed to get my bd'in in this weekend too with or without a positive opk.

Hi girls
Sarah, what a relief for you to hear the hb and know baby is fine. Try and relax a bit now and enjoy it. The third and worst trimester will be here before you know it!
Ha ha ha, I'm not relaxed at all tbh, if I don't feel the baby moving as soon as I wake I'm prodding myself until I get a kick or something! I didn't start to enjoy things really until after the 20 week scan.
Theresa hope you're ok and having a good day?
What are you up to Lynds, how are you feeling?
All ok here, I'm just trying to get motivated to tackle some ironing! Can't be bothered but it's mounting up as usual! Dh is going to be doing some cleaning. Alex is out with mil!

hi all,
Yeah was quite impressed that they do mw app's around here on a sat....i had those bad stomache pains the other week, then haven't really felt the baby move (2nd babies u normally feel at at least 16 weeks) but thank god all was ok this am, & she picked up the heartbeat.
Its the look on the midwife's faces that get me, when i lie on the bed thingie lifting up my top, & they see my bruises on my belly. LOL Most of them dont seem to know about injecting heparin for blood disorders in pg & i have to explain it all; that im not a junkie.
So all is well, but yeah your right theresa, i wont stop worrying. U seem quite relaxed, most of the time shelley?? mind u, i am abit of a worrier. But when i was pg with ds, (id had just had 1 mc before him) i wasn't worried at all once i hit 12 weeks.
last night sounds great fun theresa...nice that u work with a good bunch of people then?
popping over to a friends this afternoon, have a nice weekend ladies xxx

hi all,
so as you've got a + ov test theresa, are u making the most of it, or waiting until the outcome on tues?? Glad your out & about tonight.....
My belly doesn't seem to be getting that much bigger now, considering i started to notice a difference at literally 8 weeks, i couldnt fit into my jeans...im now nearly 18 weeks i just look as though ive eaten a v big meal.....lol of course that concerns me too. Will be glad to see mw tomorrow to make sure everythings ok & for her to check the heartbeart. After that, next scan not for another 4 weeks or so.
Hope you're ok after yesterday shelley....i dont think any of us will ever forget all the sh** we've been thru. I can't watch the news at the mo, all the stuff with kids going on, just upsets me, i have to turn it over.

Hi girls,
Lynds ah thanks for telling me that, it all sounds so simple doesn't it. At least you know what the next step is if you're not lucky this time, fingers crossed you are though hun. How effective do they say IUI is?
Sarah good luck with the MW, I'm sure all is well but it's always a relief to put your mind at rest, when is your next scan?
Sorry work is no better for you though, what a pain.
Theresa hope you're ok? What are you up to this weekend?
We've put the Nursery border on today, it looks lovely, carpet being laid as I type! It's been lovely spending the day with dh today, we don't often have the same day off!
Catch up later xxxx
14/11/08 11:01
Hiya all, blimen bounty getting mucking up last night....typed a long response then it wouldnt send....GGGGrrrr....
Works busy busy, nope hasn't improved, massive pressure on us all, sales is NOT a place to work when companys are doing badly....its like all the senior management take the sh** out of u!! & they seem to think they can treat us all like a peice of sh**. Im sooooo glad ill be out of here of here soon!
Have foned mw this morning, as still worried that i havent really felt baby move yet, & i had stomach pains last week for 2 days, although i think i had that stomache bug...but still alittle worried. managed to get an app for tomorrow morning. Wish me luck girls xx
At least they're looking after u Lynds & have explained the clear path of what'll happen. Although as u say hopefully it wont come to that, but at least u know theres a plan B, just incase. Fingers crossed for this month.
How u doing theresa? what days is your app next week?
Well must do some work, talk later girls xx
13/11/08 21:47
hi ladies
shelley sorry to hear its 'THAT' day for you honey. i know you must be struggling today with it. glad you finish next week you'll be glad for the rest.
Theresa honey only you can make that decision to bd or not with the consultant appointment being so close.
IUI is Inter Uterine Insemination where they take his sperm and clean it and take the most active and place it inside me but hope we don't get to that stage. cd12 for me today so gonna try and bd tonight and the next night me thinks!! good luck to hubby i say.
Sarah hope your ok honey xxxxx
13/11/08 20:28
Hi girls,
Lynds that's good news you're getting useful help and advice as to where you go from here. Good luck with it all, fingers crossed the sperm get better! What exactly is IUI? I've not come across that before? Sorry if that sounds thick!
Theresa not long til your appointment hun, are you getting nervous or excited about it. Have you made a list of things to ask about?
Yes I finish work next Thursday, can't wait! I don't think they want me to go back with me then having 2 children! I don't know why, I've never had a day off to look after Alex since I went back to work after he was born! The only time I've had off was when I mc last November. Actually it's quite a tough day today, I was rushed to hospital on 13th November with horrendous blood loss and passing huge clots! I was also in cubicle 13 in A & E OMG! Not something I'm likely to forget.
Sarah hope you're ok hun, how's work treating you lately?
13/11/08 19:36

Lynds hun i am pleased they are finally doing something for you hurahhhh! chin up keep fighting on, just another hurdle " jump girl jump" xxx IUI is suppose to be pretty effective x dannys swimmers give him a kick in the ass no caffine, and cut down on the alcohol. what am i like eh sorry

hi ladies
back from fertility clinic with some useful information at long last. i managed to speak to the actual consultant this time instead of one of the locums.
he asked how i was doing and i said that not enjoying the clomid side effects and i'm getting them quite severely. he asked if i'd been given any blood tests or tracking and i stated that i hadn't at all. he then agreed to send me for a 21 day blood test which means i can get it 21st november to check if clomid is making me ovulate. he's also promised me a month of tracking next month if we don't catch this one. he then checked the results of danny's sample and states that although he had a count of 23 million sperm 9 million were active and only 1.3 million were super active but needs to be closer to 5 million super active. he gave me another 2 month of clomid and asked me to come back end of january for a check up if we've not caught by then and if we haven't and after danny has done ANOTHER sample to check his motility again we will be put forward for IUI.
sorry there's alot to read but i knew you'd all want to know. i've had a headache all day and still no positive opk. fingers crossed i get a positive in the next day or two.
hope your all well ladies xxxxx
12/11/08 13:10
hi ladies
sorry i didn't post yesterday was waiting for someone else to post first lol!!!
well cd11 for me so doing opk's as we speak, got a headache and feel tired and fed up still but doing my tests still. feeling down cos of the time of year but keeping close to danny as when i feel like this wanna just push people away!!!
sarah glad your at 17 weeks now and i can see that you'll be worried all the way to holding that new baby in your arms like you say your playing the odds aren't you xxxxxxx
shelley wow how far gone are you now!! so glad your well honey and that the baby is well and perfect size for the development.
theresa honey hope your well honey glad we had a chat on saturday. feeling better as we speak xxxxx
12/11/08 09:10
Morning girls
Sarah, wow 17 weeks, that seems to have flown by, though I know it won't have for you! I know what you mean about not being able to relax and enjoy the pg. I panic if I haven't felt anything when I just get up in a morning! I just give a gentle prod and usually get a kick in response!
Theresa hope you're ok. What day is your appt in London? Hope work isn't too bad atm for you.
Lynds how are you doing, still feeling rough?
Have a good day girls, will catch up later on xxx
11/11/08 21:00
hello !! im here. Blimen' freezing tonight, just can't get warm.
Im 17 weeks now shelley. Havent felt the baby move as yet, but saying that, think i did earlier when i was watching tv.......wahooo! not sure though. its normally gentle flutterings at this stage, will wait & see. & no, in answer to your question, im not relaxed yet, & doubt i ever will be. I seem to be reminded all the time that things can go wrong at any stage......bumped into a friend in the supermarket the other day, she told me how she's lost her baby at 24 weeks. Another friend at work has told me how she lost at 27 weeks.....so yes ill just be a worrybags throughout this pg.
Been trying to get some bits for this house today, its never ending! & its only 6 weeks now until xmas......GGGGGGrrrrrrr
how u doing Lynds? its getting to that busy time of the month for u soon. lol
U alright theresa? Glad u seem to be 'coping' well. Is Ash coming to your app with u in london next week? & bet you'll be abit nervous before u go in - she's world famous - prof regan. lucky u.
well ladies, take care talk soon xxx
11/11/08 20:11
What no posts! Where is everyone?????? Hope you're all ok?
I saw my MW this morning, all is well, I'm measuring perfectly for my weeks (32 + 5). Baby's head is not engaged as I thought the other day! She seemed suprised I thought it was!
So what's everyone else been up to?
10/11/08 20:43
Hi girls
Sarah (((HUGS))) to you, what worry eh, all the little aches & pains send us into panic mode. I'm sure you'll be fine but like you say, best to put your mind at rest. Have you felt the baby move yet? How far are you now?
Lynds, good luck at your appt, hope they are a big help to you with the next step. Fingers crossed for this month though eh.
Theresa, awwww 5 weeks, that has flown by, can't believe it's that long for your angel. Sorry your work is still rough hun, sod em though eh!!!!
I finish work a week on Thursday, can't wait! I see my MW tomorrow. I think the baby's head has dropped some more, I'm really uncomfy now. Didn't feel much movement yesterday so was worried about that, been loads today though!
Take care girls xxxxx

Hi girls,
Lynds glad to hear you're feeling ok and had a good day today. That's good you're not working this weekend. Great news you got some bding in anyway. I've forgotten what that's like! It's been almost 14 weeks since we did the deed! Seems longer though.
Of course, we can't wait to hear the fab news that you and Theresa are pg!
I'm wondering how I'll find the time for Bounty once the baby is born! I barely had time for a cuppa with Alex in the early weeks!
Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend!
