Awaiting Treatment

[Hope644]

OK, it's a little late in the day, but....

Angie!! Hope you have had a good one!! Did you get your high speed up & running?! How are the little bambinos doing and how r u feeling? Just 7 more days to go!

Steph - Just 6 more days for you! So... have you POAS yet?? How r u & the kids feelin'? So, interview on the 24th? Good sign with the Navy, that one will take FOREVER! Have fun scrapbooking with your mom this weekend!

especially for you two!!

Becky - Hope you enjoyed your evening out with the bro & sis - bet you were catching all eyes, being all dolled up and fresh from the salon! Glad to hear you're feeling better!! I think it's great you decided to take that extra week... you'll be glad later!!

Su - did you get all the furniture in?? Poor thing, sounds like a sketch from a sitcom!

Rachel - sorry to hear about the tooth ache!! Hopefully the dentist can get you all fixed up and feeling good again - and you'll be back to eating Cadbury creme eggs in no time!

To everyone else I missed, I hope you have a fantastic weekend!!!

Question - any fiction readers out there? I used to love to read, but rarely get a chance anymore (maybe I would if I would get off the computer?!) Anyway, I spend so much time in traffic, I end up listening to books on tape a lot. So I'm listening to "Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister" by Gregory Maguire. He wrote the book "Wicked" which has now become a huge musical hit on Broadway. It's pretty interesting so far... if you're not familiar - Wicked is about the real lives of the witches of Oz and Confessions is the Cinderella story from the perspective of one of the stepsisters... interesting perspectives. So, prior to this site, i've never been an online chatter - I was looking at the message board on the Wicked website and I was shocked!! People on there are MEAN!!! I couldn't believe it... it's just awful. Anyway, since I'm a message board newbie... I guess I was just clueless to how ppl can be on sites. Glad it's not like that here!!

Well, nighty night... Talk to you guys later!

[ICSI GIRL]

THANKS BUNCHES HOPE!!! (for bday wishes)......and i'm same as you w/ being a newbie to message board/chatting...this was a first for me and if i had to judge solely based on my experience HERE -- i would be head-over-heels 110% FOR IT!!!!!! but damn -- the ppl on that wicked site sound down right NASTY!! kinda takes the fun out of chatting up ppl ya don't know -- cuz for me, it would surely just piss me off if somebody were being nasty beatch to me for no reason........but maybe they all get off on it in some strange way or something??????? i've never been an avid reader.......college really duped my spirit and ANY ounce of joy i ever had for reading -- so i'm just NOW (10'ish years later) getting to a point where i will even entertain the IDEA of reading a book.......i did read (last weekend) -- TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE by mitch album......i cried...it was good....and a gf of mine gave me another one of mitch albums' "the 5 people you meet in heaven" -- haven't started yet (just got today) -- so i'll probably pick that up sometime this weekend... right now am playing w/ "new toy" (high speed)....

although.....can i just say to you ladies that are on facebook --- it is really just pissing me right off??!!!! mostly cuz i have NO idea how to work it!! and right now am getting tired.....so have ZERO patience left....

anyhoo...........i'm signing off for tonight......btw -- feeling good, i think.... i have moments where i'm not sure if i feel "PMS" cramping....or if it's "i gotta go to the loo" cramping....or if it's "i really need to rip one" cramping???? as for my typical pms'ing --- i'm pretty much (historically) a non-cramper....AND i'm only like day 20 right now -- and if i'm GOING to feel pms'ing cramping -- is usually not til closer to day 26'ish..... pretty sure i don't have to visit the loo.........and i've been rippin 'em all night!!! ha, ha, ha!!!! kidding....had to say it though......LUCKILY -- eventhough i've not made heads/tails over my tummy feelings --- i seem to be ok with it crazy as that sounds! just not driving myself nutso over it...THANK GOD!!

TTFN LADIES!!!!!!!! sure you're sick of my rambling............(for TONIGHT --- cuz i'll surely be back w/ my new high speed!!! you guys are gonna be sooooooooooooooooo sick of me by end of weekend!)

[Welshgirl38]

Afternoon ladies

LOLOLOL Angie - u really are loving that high speed internet arnet ya I love the way u just yak away about anything and everything - makes us feel like proper friends
I love to read, i read one book a fortnight at least! Depending on how good it is, i might read it within a few days, its relaxing and im afraid to say, im a book geek lol. But only certain types of books - if i like the cover, i will read the back - its usually girly books i would buy - none of this murder mystery or Andy McNab (my DH loves his type of books) i like, girlie ones O

But one that u must get over there, which was written by an american journalist is called 'Marley & Me' by John Grogan - for anyone who adores dogs (Steph u have to have it) this is the book to buy. I laughed on one page and cried on the next, i read it within 2 days and laughed out loud not being able to stop at some of the things that that wee dog got up to - everyone has a Marley moment and thats the book to read - fantastic apparantly, it is to be made into a film - i will be first in the queue at the cinema to watch that ....

So - thats book club over with for this week lol - book of the week then 'Marley & Me' lol ..... (he also has his own website with wee pics of Marley on it - marleyandme.com - take a look, im sure u will agree ladies, one for the collection!

(i also love Sophine Kinsella - she's funny)

Anyway - back to reality. its Saturday afternoon, i had a lovely meal out last night, DH is away hunting with the dog, one daughter is in work and the other is shopping! So i am on my todd (meaning on my own for u american folk who dont understand our language lol) with my high speed internet, and no one to play with lol ....

Glad to hear u popped ur birthday prezzie Ang - was it as good as i had hoped it was gonna be Errm - wots this about the 'pecker' conversation - am i right in thinking we have a diferent meaning of 'pecker' here in the UK - cos i dont think it would be summit i would want to discuss with my children - not the teenage ones anyway haha! I would be more embarrassed than them i think lol ...I just love getting new pj's too, i think i honestly have more pj's that actuall going out clothers - i love getting a nice long soak in the bath and getting nice cosy fitting pj's - oh bliss!! Talking of pj's i suppose i had better get up off my sore arse and get dressed lol - its 12.50pm and im still in my pj's.
What problems are u having with facebook? It took me a while to get into it too, but once ur up and running - its quite additive, and Steph keeps throwing things at me, so mind ur head lol (all will become clear lol)

Hope: Some people on other threads can be right nasty - u have to be careful. When i first started tmt i went to a site and blubbered all my problems thinking i would get some sympathy - but i was told that because i already have 2 children i was not welcome there and i shouldnt be moaning cos i already have kids bla bla bla - they even emailed my private email - it upset me for - oooooooo about 1 hour, cos then i was so bloody annoyed with them that i went back and replied summit on the lines of - well when it happens for u, does that mean u wont want any other children, will u then be shunned by ur friends here now cos they still havent got a bfp - and to top it all, can my DH join here cos he doesnt have his own - maybe i'll relate my problems thru him, and i proceeded to call em a nastly bunch of so and so's, got an apology off a few of them, but told em to shove it up their jackcies, cos i had found a nicer site with lovely people on board = you lot

Well ladies, hello to the rest of you - i know it gets quieter here at the week end - but will check in later on this evening - hopefully someone will have been on

C U Later - Aligator (in a while crocodile)

Ta Raaaaaa

Becky Xxxx

[nimble]

Angie, what can i say - I knew it was your birthday yesterday but just couldn't get onto the site but i was thinking of you and sounds like you had a lovely time
When you have finished with Beckys birthday present, could you send him over here please........... (that is, if he isn't too worn out ha ha )

Are you on facebook yet??? it doesn't need any patience - just keep on clicking on everything steph sends you !! She and Becky will keep you busy for months on there!!

- its sounding good down there girl......

Hey steph - if you get the job with the navy - you won't need a pool boy - you'll have loads of them - (tried to find a sexy navy man picture but failed miserably!! )
Enjoy your weekend with your mom.

Becky - hope you had a great evening night - hope the head isn't too sore this morning

Its DH birthday today and we are all going out to a lovely chinese tonight although we had a bit of a bumpy start and there is a slient chill in the air !! I ordered him a birthday present and the couriers arrived with it yesterday but we weren't in - you know as most people work during the day - well they won't leave it with neighbours so had to drive 20miles - but could we find the blinkin place - nope! The Sat Nav took us somewhere else (although the postcode was right) - so he was driving around getting frustrated - stopped to ask someone and they didn't know - so he pulled away and didn't see the curb and has dented his spoiler on his car - oh and whilst driving down the motorway (ah thats another UK word ) and stone hit the windscreen and nows there a chip - eventually found the place by this time he was really pissed off - anyway that was the start and its just been niggles since - deep joy!! So think i'm going to go out and do some retail therapy!!!!!!!!!!!!

back later nims xx

[squeezan]

So its Saturday afternoon and I finally have the time (and energy) for a proper catch up. Be warned, this could be a long one
I usually meet up with my family for lunch on Saturdays but my niece has been ill (throat infection) so I'm keeping well away. Just don't want to catch anything else it I can help it.
Did I say I had antibiotics for sinuitis? Well, I then came out in a rash and it seems I've developed a penicillin allergy I don't think I've ever been allergic to anything in my life before. Great timing, as if I wasn't scared enough about the whole hospital/birthing thing I now have to worry about being given penicillin by mistake

Nims - did DH like his present in the end, I sure hope so after all that trouble getting it. We're always teasing my Dad about getting lost and blaming it on the sat nav. I was in a car following him from my Gran's funeral to the wake and we were going round in circles 'cos 'the sat nav got it wrong'. I wouldn't mind but the funeral was in Oxford, where my Dad grew up (and supposedly knows really well) and he'd been to the venue a couple of days before to organise it.

Angie


I pm'd you how to find me on facebook. It takes a while to get used to it and I don't think I'll ever keep up with Steph but its good for a laugh.

I hope the cramping has gone, whatever was causing it. Sounds like you are pretty relaxed this time.


Steph - sorry if I didn't reply to your e-mail, I thought I had but I can't find it so maybe I forgot.
Do you have Mr Men books over there? I loved them as a child.
Anyway I do love you really, here's a turtle to show how much
Don't think I thanked you for the piccies of onesies (they're called bodysuits here). Not sure I'll be going for the turtle ones myself but they are pretty cute.
Oh and by the way


Becky - I've seen Marley & Me in the shops but never looked at it. Might have to get it now you've recommended it. I've read a lot of Jody Picoult lately, My sister's keeper is the best. Now I'm reading The tenth circle but its not keeping me interested. Maybe I've just got too much else on my mind to read at the moment, that happens sometimes.
Good on you for taking another week off. You need to be feeling your best for starting a new job. Hope the bum's feeling better, that knotted wire thing sounded painful - brought tears to my eyes just thinking about it.

Hope - I read Wicked a few months ago and loved it. Have you seen the musical? It's on in London too and I'd love to go sometime. The Wizard of Oz is my all time favourite film and I adore anything to do with it.


Rachel - how's the tooth?
Just leave some creme eggs for the rest of us please

Jen1d - so did af arrive as requested? Not long now til you fly out an bring those embabies home , how's the planning going? I hope FIL remains stable, you don't need that extra worry at the moment.

Stephjim - Here's hoping that darn cyst has got the message and gone back where it came from. I'm doing a little AF jig just in case she hasn't arrived yet

Shantala - hope you didn't catch DH's bug. How's the building work going? will it be finished before baby arrives?

Jayne - glad the scan went well. I got the date for mine - 23rd Jan when I'll be 12w1d (according to me) or 12w4d according to the midwife Why do they insist on working from last AF when my cycle's not regular? I know when I had iui for goodness sake I'm glad to hear your nuchal measurements were good. I'm not sure I'm gonna have that done as I wouldn't take it any further if the results were bad and it would just cause more worry for the rest of the pregnancy. I think I'd rather not know but its a personal decision.
Are you gonna find out what you're having? Everyone keeps asking me that and I just don't know at the moment. I've heard people say that when they knew and had told others beforehand that it was a bit of a let down not to have that news when the baby arrives. So I'm tempted to find out but not tell anyone (except my sister). Don't know if I could keep it a secret though once I knew.

Anyone else into Dancing on Ice? New series starts tomorrow and I can't wait. I like that much better than strictly come dancing.

I got the date for my scan - 23rd Jan. That's gonna be a great week - Monday my birthday, Tuesday I reach 12 weeks and Wednesday my scan. Plus I have Monday and Tuesday off work, what more could I need
Thanks for all the nagging about the furniture. I promise I took it really carefully, so carefully that I still haven't got around to removing the old coffee table that's got to go to the tip (dumps Steph) so my lounge is a little over crowded at the moment.
Well I think I'm done at last, I did warn you it'd be a long one
Hi to anyone I missed.
Enjoy the rest of your weekends and come back soon everyone

[Hope644]

Hello Ladies~

Angie - Are you spending your Sat lovin' your high speed and getting your facebook issues all worked out? Hope your cramping has gone away. I'm glad you're not too worried about it. Tuesdays with Morrie - I've never read it, but I know a ton of ppl who have - they all love it. Silly me, I'm scared to read it because I don't like books or movies that make me cry - and I'm a closet crybaby at mushy stuff. My dh, trying to be romantic, bought me the DVD "The Notebook" - great movie, but trust me, there ain't nothin' romantic about all the wet stuff comin' out of my face after that movie!
Anyway, let us know how the other book is...probably another tear-jerker, I still love 'em, I just can't read 'em!

Becky - is Marley & Me going to make me gush? I think I might do better with Sophine Kinsella's works. I've seen her books in the library, but never checked one out. Maybe I'll give 'em a shot once I've worn out old Maguire. I like the funny stuff, even some romance. Generally, I like more unusual stuff, borderline sci-fi, even and crime/suspense. You and I are in the same boat today!! My dh is working (all wknd) and the boys are with their mom. AND, I'm still in my pj's (love them too!) only it's already 2 here! eek! I should really get dressed!! About those nasty threads - I am so glad I'm not on any other. I cannot believe those ppl said such nasty things to you!!! Ugh! People can be so mean. I feel sorry for them, really, because they are usually miserable - but that doesn't make it OK for them to lash out at others!! NOT NICE!

Enjoy your weekend and your time to yourself!!

Nims - Sounds like you've had quite an eventful night! Hope it didn't bring a damper to dh's bday. Did you guys enjoy your chinese food? And did he love the gift once you finally got it?! I hope the retail therapy works
for ya! Let us know what kind of cool things you get!

Su - Have you gotten rid of the penicillin rash?! Ouch... poor thing. I love the Mr and Little Miss books as a child. I think my favorite was Little Miss Sunshine Not to be confused with the film! I guess that's a good sign that I was a happy child,..? I guess I still am... happy, that is... over all. Speaking of, did anyone see that special last night on Happiness? What makes people happy and such?

I have heard the musicial for Wicked is great. I may try to see it if it comes to DC, but I want to read the book first. I am really enjoying confessions of an ugly stepsister. I hope wicked will be as good. When I was a kid, on my first visit to DC, the only thing I remember seeing was Dorothy's ruby slippers and the Hope Diamond in the Smithsonian... ah, fond childhood memories! Have you read any of Maguire's other books? Sounds like Son of a Witch is the sequel to Wicked. Have you read it?

Jen1d - How's FIL? And the trip planning?? If AF hasn't shown up yet, here's another little dance to encourage her along!


Well ladies, I better get rolling. Lots of housework to do and need to get my work out in before the day gets away from me!

[Jen1d]

Hi girls

Not feeling so great just now, still got the snuffles so just a quick email to let you know that af arrived this afternoon and all the flights and hotel is booked. Having a change this time again and staying nearer the centre.

Scan should be on the 18th, have to confirm this on monday then ET on the 28th.

Have to say i'm doing this as i have the embies over there already but i'm not holding out for much. Sorry to be so negative but just gone through so much disappointment to think it might ever work.

Oh well, have to have some hope lingering or i wouldn't be going ---right??

Angie - Hope you had a fab birthday

Steph - Hang in there, am thinking of you

Hope - thanks for your dance, it worked a treat

Sq - that little twin pic is just so cute, wish they were mine.

Love Jen x

[ICSI GIRL]

hey ladies!! been popping in/out throughout the day w/ my new play thing (high speed!) i'm tellin ya -- i'm like a kid at christmas!! ha, ha, ha

so beck - did ya have a good day all "todd" (ha, ha, --- i know that is the very WRONG context -- but another one of yer words that i get a kick out of!!) i am so easily amused -- it's scary!! YES, marley & me -- -have had several friends recommend it actually --- and at some point, i WILL read it -- but my doggie is like my "baby" and i couldn't bear the thought of reading a book where you're doggie passes on while i'm going thru this stuff -- ya know???? i'm weird like that i guess... OH and yes, you must have missed the "pecker" conversation --- cuz we learned that OVER THERE, when used like this "hold your pecker high" -- kinda means hold your HEAD high?? right?? and over HERE --- well, pecker is slang for PENIS!!!!! and yes, i talk very openly w/ my teenage boys about their peckers!! ha, ha, ha!! try to make it so is not embarrassing for them - ya know?? i don't want them to end up w/ baby on the way while still in high school and i dont' know about over there, but over here ---- no matter how much ya preach "ABSTINENCE" --- it simply isn't a realistic approach (MY OPINION) to dealing w/ teenage sex -- cuz they're still doin it!!! i'm 99% confident that my boys have yet to engage in actual SEX -- NOW, they may have done the petting thing or maybe other things .... anyhoo -- i do think that teenage boys are easier than girls -- and i've never had "girls" -- but i was/am one and i know what i put my mother thru as a teenager and i'm tellin ya --- my boys are a piece of cake!!

nims --- hey girl!! thanks for the bday wishes.....no worries --- i know most people have a "real life" outside of here....i go thru periods of being "extra addicted" (like NOW) based on when i'm cycling....helps keep me occupied.....hope dh's birthday ended up better than how it started!! sorry to hear such a pain in the bum for ya! dont' ya hate it when couriers won't leave package??? it's like r u serious??? it's MINE and if i want you to leave it at my damn door, then leave it!! guess is for our own protection - but come on already!! OH - i really like that word too -- NIGGLES!!!!!

su -- how the hell are ya??? so good to see you.....yeah -- good luck making decision on finding out sex of baby!! i think for sure we will find out (once we get our BFP this thursday!!!) but it's a big thing though -- so don't feel pressured........and with time, you'll decide what you want to do!

hope ---- YEP -- lovin my high speed!! loving that i can sit on my sofa in front of my tv w/ my pc on my lap and just plugging away!! i'm multi tasking - ya know?? ha, ha, ha....boy it sounds like you're doing a FAB job with your QUASI diet!! i always have the hardest time exersising on the weekends -- during the week i can usually do very good sticking to good eating habits and the whole bit, but then weekend comes --- look out!! and of course right now - i'm eating for TWO (in my world -- until proven otherwise this thursday!!) and so i've been not only eating like a PIG -- i've not been exercising either!!!!!

jen1 --- good to hear your plans are all made for FET!!! yeah!! get this countdown started sweetie! i do understand though -- not having your heart in it.....you've been going thru a lot lately w/ fil and all.....you know where to find us...we're here for you!!

ok -- so my "cramping" hasn't really gone away....not like i'm in pain or anything.......it just feels like i have serious pms cramps!! and i SWEAR when i went pee earlier - it looked like the slightest discoloration (TMI, sorry) like when AF is STARTING to make her way????!!!!! so i've been drinking a TON so that i can keep checkin my knickers (actually just checkin my wipe) for any add'l sign of discoloration???!!!!!!! i'm so pissed cuz i was really very "ok" with things right this moment -- not feeling too much anxiety or stress about waiting til thursday.....AND - it's only CD (not music cd beck) cycle day 23 and i have NEVER in my life started before day 26 -- but it's like all bets are off while on all these damn meds!! so there....now you have my update for the day......kinda driving myself a little nuts right this minute -- but i'll get over it...

[ICSI GIRL]

look what i can do.........look what i can do!!

[squeezan]

Well Angie aren't you getting all technological now Hi speed internet, facebok and now piccies, where will it stop?
Seriously though I did all that during a 2ww too, it really helps to keep your mind off it.
Try not to stress, I had cramping right through my last 2ww and for a couple of weeks after my BFP - like you said you'll be finding out the sex of your baby(ies) in just a few weeks after your BFP on Thursday.

Hope - I had booked tickets ages in advance to see Wicked in London - it ended up being day after ET and just did not want to risk it so had to sell tickets

Hi to anyone I have missed x

Had busy day yesterday with friends over with child from hell - she is like 7 and rules roost - they were meant to be staying over and luckily MF had not had a drink as child threw paddy and wanted to sleep in her own bed - so at like 1am they set off for 2 hour drive - how can you let a child that age dictate what you do - or is it just me and PMT hormones ???

Boring jobs today like food shopping - well if we want to eat - LOL and housework, washing car - was out with my boss on friday and he reminded me that company car policy we need to keep our cars clean - I'm like your having a laugh in this weather - you can see my number plate so its not that bad ... arghhh

Take care

Carolyn xxx

[lara312]

Hi ladies this is just a quicky

Well had to have the tooth out friday and have an infection in the gob thats what you get for having a big 1 lol mouth feeling much better now though but yesterday got up early early has was feeling sick will by dinner time it had gotten worse so phoned nhs direct and was told to go straight to a&e which we did by the time we got there i had a rush come out on my face they run lots of blood tests has the rash did not disappear when they pressed it then all these docs and nurses came in they said its the kind of rash they all get excited about they were thinking it was meningitis but after staying there for 7 hours they found that i am allergic to the antibiotics from the dentist so changed them they checked the baby out has that is the only reason i went i was worried that i was hurting her but they said she was ok has she was moving lots and lots well they gave me the option to stay in but said i was clinically stable and could come home which i jumped at the chance has you know what hospitals are like go in with 1 thing come out with something else so have decided to go on the sick till my maternity starts in 3 weeks has i seem to be catching everything going i'm feeling much better now and hopefully over the worst of the bug

Catch you all soon need to rest up now
lots of love Rachel x x

[squeezan]

Rachel - you really do seem to be getting one thing after another don't you. I don't blame you for finishing work early, you need to take care of yourself and little bubba.

Carolyn - no its not your hormones, that child sounds like a nightmare. Such a shame she spoiled your weekend I bet she was asleep in the car before they were even half way home

[stephjim]

Lara, sorry to hear that you feel ill. It is good that you got it checked out though because it has to be scary to not know.

ICSI and Steph, looking forward to hearing "I AM BFP"!!!!!!! from the both of you by the end of the week. Stay positive.

Well AF came to visit me at work yesterday, which sucked because, one that meant I was not pregnant and two. I only had one tampon with me. I am a nurse, so when that one tampon was not usable anymore, I had to go put on one of those stupid big mama feminine napkins that they give you at the hospital. That sucked. But good news is I get to go tomorrow and see a clear scan right? No Cysts!!!!!!!!!!

I did have a question though, to all of you people out there that have done IVF already. If I do have a cyst and they put me on BCP. Would it be better for me to go straight into IVF since I am already on the BCP than to do it and then wait a month and then try the Clomid again, which is what gave me the cyst in the first place? I mean I know that all the IVF meds will do the same, but I am just sick of taking all this medicine that screws with my emotions and since the chances are we are going to have to do IVF, I am not very confident with the IUI, then why waste time when I am already going to be on BCP.

What is everyone's take on this? Am I just being to impatient?

Stephjim
