  • Oooh well done 2522laura!

    Getting cash out of BT is no mean feat, bet you're chuffed with yourself :)

    Welcome Jenny - hope your headache is feeling better now.

    Fannyanna - I'm sorry, but I'm CD23 (11dpo) now. Should have replied yesterday before you came on shift!

    Hope all you ladies are well - it's POURING with rain here. Feels like it hasn't stopped in weeks :(

    Well done for doing the list fannyanna. No news here yet on whether I'm CD1 or not - it's usual for me to have 2 days of spotting before real AF anyway, so it may not start until tomorrow now anyway.

    Glad your headache at least has gone Jenny - I would be inclined to do a cheapy pregnancy test from the £1 shop - there are 2 in a pack, and they are quite sensitive I believe.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Fannyanna you should be able to copy and paste them - that's what I did and it seemed to work.

    Yep :D I didn't think I would see that money again! I know £130 isn't exactly a fortune but when you are trying to save up to be able to take maternity leave in the not to distant future without defaulting on the mortgage its money i can't do without!

    I tried it over the weekend, will find out in 2 weeks if it has made a difference :) It certainly can't hurt to try it

    Morning all :)
    euronorris - you are so spot on! And what a memory,lol! I had the IUD removed but didn't have it replaced - felt like I had a lucky escape last time so we opted for comdoms until we decided what to do. I did go to doc's last time - it was put down to a stomach bug but this has been going on for far too many weeks now. Some time after I did have a tooth extraction and there was a nasty infection underneath. Only went to the dentist for check-up yesterday and all is well, do need a couple of fillings and he put some vile tasting temporary packing in one, however i have had the metallic taste in my mouth since Saturday and it's getting stronger every day :(
    I woke up and felt fine until just before I got out of bed and then I fet sick :( And my boobs - oh my god, they feel like lead weights!! Obviously it could be due to AF on it's way.
    I think you're right - I think secretly I do want another baby even though my head tells me that sensibly I shouldn't - my boys are 13 nd 17 and I'm about to start a new job in September working in a Special Needs school, I have been trying for 6 years to get in there and at last I'm there :) So it confuses me a bit feeling like this - I almost feel a bit guilty.
    You are very insightful euronorris :)
    Thank you x

    I would still get checked out at the docs, as a nasty stomach bug, particularly one that has been ongoing for a while, could affect your periods. Not to mention, it can't be very nice :(

    I also found that the taste in my mouth took a while to go away. But it could be something else. It could even be linked to your upset stomach, as I did a search on it when I had it, and stomach problems can cause a strange taste in the mouth.

    Ahh yes, the sore boobies. Mine are horrid before AF!

    Well, would you be able to afford another child? Is your husband open to the idea? Could you maybe wait a year (until you've settled into the job) and then try? I think you should consider it, and discuss it with your husband. Talk it out, rather than bottling it up, and don't feel guilty. Wanting another child isn't a bad thing, so long as you are able to provide for it and love it lots. :)
