Just MC and ready to try again? Pack your cake, wine and tightie whities and join us for more ranting, weeping and most of all laughing! All welcome! (Part 12)

Glad you got through the day ok mouse they weren't pressuring into anything your not ready for i hope? I think the first day back is the hardest - i cried in the morning too. I think you've been really brave and handled it with a great deal of dignity.

Don't let them work you too hard too soon though....its still very recent.

Have a nice evening....maybe a glass of ...i think you deserve one.

yay knitter !

Hello everyone!

Long time no see and all that! AF started today so my non-ttc cycle is over and I am back.

Of course I still ended up obsessing over whether I was preg or not in the end as this cycle lasted a epic 30 days (my pre-mc average was 26). I am putting this sudden lengthening of my cycles down to not having eaten any meat since new year which is a huge change in my diet as I was eating meat pretty much every day before. Does this sound plausable to anyone? Is it possible that a change of diet could change my cycle that much?

Anyways, another side-effect of my veggieness is I have become an obsessive baker and spent my non-working day today making granola bars (which I kinda mucked up by putting the grill on instead of the oven ), humous, bean pasties, and oat cakes (which are amazing!!..if I may say so myself)! So dig in my lovelies! [passes around a tray of yummy things]

MOUSE glad it went well, was it just a see how you're doing meeting??

Yay knitter that's awesome news

I survived my meeting ladies, was v professional and above board (phew) and I didn't shed a single tear. Well, not in the meeting anyway.

I felt v emotional all day and had a few tears mid morning but I'll get there in the end. Just feel v relieved about it all.

Thank you all so much for your support and advice, you're a fab bunch.

On the ttc front I resumed charting this morning but just for information, not planning on trying until I've had AF and as I'm still bleeding from the erpc I think that's a while away yet.

So, a deep breath, some marking and my tea. Now there's a monday night eh?

yrotb my vit e arrived today. You said you took a 800mg does....all in one day? Mine are 124mg tablets but bottle says only take up to 3 daily????

errmmm knitter lol typo! xx

CONGRATULATIONS kitter xxxx

oh and just tried ff again and it showed me a chart but without temps yet. is that correct? Although unnecessary now.

yippeeee knitter oh congratulations honey, first bfp of the thread so pleased for you. [grin

knitter no worries i figured it was someone from here. Does it show you my chart? cause it still won't show me anything, do you tick the box next to member number and press homepage?? have you taken it yet???? fx for bfp.

mummya glad you hada good weekend, that's disgusting about your cleaner. Is she a regular or through an agency?? Make a list and contact police.

velvet sorry dh is being so difficult at the moment.

Thank you so much for taking the time for a detailed reply ladies. I feel more reassured that it seems a lot of you have similar feelings to what I am going through at present. And thats for the MA links Blackkat and MummyA I did go on that website almost 6 months ago when the MC had just happened and didn't really take any of it in. Have had a good read through it again now and will be printing off and highlighting some bits anf pieces to give to dh as a lot of it is so apt. I think he will appreciate the 'men and MC' part too. I have rung the doc today to make an appointment but need to call back in the morning to see if any appointments have opened up as full now til next week and I just want to get on with things.

I will be POAS tomorrow morning with a digital (providing dh remembers to pick me one up!) and I will be strong, I will be strong, I will be strong as I know what I am to expect. The thing that has pissed me off a bit though is that I need to see the gp to get the prescription for the Provera (to start my AF if I am not pg) and if I can't get in until next week then I will be as it will also mean I will be on AF for my birthday! Oh, and I can't remember who asked now but I am having a big party.

A&R - Thank you for the room image, it makes perfect sense when things get explained like that, I just wish I could visit the content wall a little more than the despair at the moment.

MummyA - I can not believe the cleaner has nicked your stuff! Was she new? Have you confronted her or has she done a runner? You must be so and

Knitter - Best of luck for this evening's POAS action. We haven't had a BFP yet on this thread have we? Maybe you will the first - your symptoms sound very promising

MouseBacon - I hope today has gone well for you.

YRMOTB - You sound like you have had a lovely weekend and have come back all ZEN like. I have a weekend in Butlins coming up in a couple of weeks so hopefully I will be returning with your same optimism.

Velvet - sorry about the lack of support from Mrvelvet at the moment. I hope he bucks his ideas up soon!

A big Hi!! to everyone else as I really should get on with some housework and make a start on tea. But, just to let you know, I think I will stay put here, at least for a little while longer as I really do think the support helps. I have been a MN member for nearly 6 years now and do tend to dip in and out depending on where I am in my life. I found the antenatal threads a godsend when I was pg with ds so I know it can help. I am up for joining in with the SMEG and wouldn't know if I was doing it right without you lot I also feel that when, yes that's right, when I do get a BFP you guys may be the only ones I tell for a while at least and I love a gossip!

knitter ohh good luck, I really hope it's a BFP!!! The suspence!!!!

mummya at your cleaner. What a betrayal.

Fuck, all my jewelry and our ipods are missing too... FFS.

I think SMEG-plan is a great name (love Red Dwarf too!)

Emoo hope you get that scan, good luck

YRNOTB hello fellow Valentines ov'er. I cant help feeling this is a lucky omen! I did have a lovely weekend thanks, the nice thing about counselling is that we discuss all the stressy stuff in one go, and then have the rest of the week to do fun things

right better get on with the day... off to a shakey start this week as yesterday me and DH realised the cleaner stole our wedding rings
