Erm hope this will do as a continuation thread. Hello to anyone new to the thread. All welcome... xx
Just seeing if I can squeeze in one last message to this thread.
Good luck with the gel hippy - you gave me a much needed laugh with your snail trail!
Sorry you're still in the wars rowing. My cold has gone into my sinuses and ear and is pretty painful at times. What a healthy bunch we are! Probably off to the doctors myself tomorrow.
Judging by my monitor and temps, I'm having another cycle where I've not ovulated this month. How the hell am I meant to get pregnant when I'm not ovulating [TFLS shouts at no-one in particular]. Sorry for the rant but getting pretty fed up with TTC at the moment. I think I've only ovulated in one out of four cycles since miscarriage. How long is it meant to take for your body to return to normal?
Anyway, welcome to tibbychop and 10krunner. I'm not such a grumpy cow usually - honest!
Glad you got the opportunity to tell your DH tetley. Thanks for posting the offer - I'm another one thinking of joining kiwi on the slippery side. If only out of curiousity to see how big a tube of pre-seed is!!
fifitot - I can totally understand your thinking. Maybe don't actively TTC and take a what will be will be approach? Anyway, I hope you reach the right decision for you [whilst continuing to pop onto this thread of course!]
Heating is bust at the moment so off to chop wood!
Hi all, couldn't resist sticking my oar in for what really must be the last post
Ermm haven't a clue how to do the new thread thingy so I'll leave that to the more experienced types (you'd never believe I've a Ph.d in computer science).
massive congratulations
Tetley that's lovely news and welcome to all the new people.
Well, here I am again hopelessly vague on cd, have sort of given up temping cause now we are trying a to do BD every other day except when the witch is in town.
Of course so far we've totally failed to keep up with this ambitious schedule but it seems like a better bet seeing as I was never quite sure when I OVed or not.
Hi all, Hubbie hogged the laptop again so just had a long read and caught up with you all.
Got the progesterone gel from the chemist and I'm ready to begin inserting it after I've defo ovulated. I can either do the sticks to check for Ov or just wait until day 18. I know I'm gonna end up doing those flippin' sticks cos I'm totally addicted!

Hoping for a longer LP this time. Have started reflexology (taster session last night) more booked. She has done a course on reflexology and fertility so she should be the right person to do it.
I am scared now that I am gonna manage to conceive but then MC cos of the LPD, but someone on my other thread has assured me that a short LP makes it difficult for the embryo to implant but once implanted it doesn't necessarily cause MC. I hope she's right - Hippy goes off to google LPD/MC.......
Hi to any newbies, good luck to anyone waiting for the old witch.

ps. someone else will have to sort out new thread - I might c*ck it up!!
Hi to the baby
tetley - ahhhh.
Hello woodelf - CD is cycle day, ie day 1 is the first day of your last period.
BTW experienced Mumsnetters do we need a new thread? Are we about to burst (think I am 999 post!)?
Hi there, back after a bit of an absence...
Congrats Tetley - I'm pleased and honoured to be the lucky charm and willl post more often. Looking forward to the next lady blessed with a BFP!
Would love to be on roll call, not sure what CD is though?? (Bit dense...) First kid at 43 - now 46 and hoping for another gift from the universe!!
Baby dust and sprinkles to all
Hi everyone, back again after a bit of an absence... I'm glad to be of service if my lucky baby dust is spread far and wide over one and all. Belated Congrats Tetley - surely more will follow your fine example

Would love to be on the roll call but not sure what cd means?? First kid at 43 - 46 now and awaiting AF and I'm so scatty I may have forgotten the date of the last one - or maybe.....?
Baby dust and sprinkles to you all

Just realised that Tetley's not on the rollcall.

Hi
Rowing - sorry that your still not feeling very well. Think the virus that is going aroung is a particular bad one, one girl at work was out for a week and a half and i've been in and out for about two weeks now. Back to docs tomorrow for results of blood tests.
DH is on the mend (slowly) still quite tender but the swelling has started to go down but he still has quite a lump on one side. If it hasn't got better by Friday the consultant wants us to ring back and make an appointment to see him.
Tetley - glad you are feeling well. Hopefully the sickness will miss you this time.
Hope everyone else is OK
x
BTW there are 2 for 1 on OPKs at Boots just now which is a real bargain.
rowing sorry to hear you're not better yet. hope doc comes up with something helpful
