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)

Well i guess we might not be the next ones there but surely the law of averages says we'll be heading over there soon...

Izz I wish I could even pretend to be hopeful about needing a seat but other people will be needing it before me :(

Grr there I go being miserable again!!

I know velvet - do you reckon they'll save us some seats on the posh new bfp thread?

Yeah I want to scream at them -so many different things! They are both a grade students, 14 yrs old, first sexual partners etc etc and it is sooooo friking unfair!

I am very interested in the experiment too :) do you think too much cm could be a problem? Also, how soon after sperm deposition is it ok to have a bath? We don't have a shower atm so it's been bothering me! Lol the things we ask about on here

Where have the past 2 weeks gone? Can't believe I'm looking out for my temp rise in the next couple of days!!

Diffders - I know you guys are ranting on another fred but it's awfully quiet without you!

Evening all. I have been busy at work today but lurking and enjoying the chat.

Sorry the witch got you mummya but I like your attitude! Your experiment made me laugh out loud...all this TTC can be pretty draining but I'm so glad we have you to make us giggle along the way. Let me know if you need a guinea pig for anything

I've been feeling rotten today - exhausted and sick with bad back ache. I know I'm not pg (another BFN this morning) so am assuming AF is on her way. But I don't normally get period pains like this - is it normal to feel rough for the first AF after MC? Am worried in a slightly paranoid way that something worse might be wrong . Really don't want to be ill in Thailand

Flaxseed on order (along with Vit E for spots!) and EPO out of cupboard. Once we have got AF I'll join your herbal experiment! Might even have grapefruit too!!

chloe I'm sorry the Chlomid is having such awful effects for you. To be honest I don't know much about it but I've just been reading and it sounds shit- a really rough deal. I hope you feel better with it soon x

velvet I can't believe that news, that must have been hard. I would have wanted to scream. I know some young girls go on to be good mothers but it still seems cruel.

mummya flaxseed is for after ov, in place of epo. see here

does it matter if it's from concentrate?

mummya it does actually work, it sinks straight to the bottom.

velvet am too, and pitying them. Do you think they will actually last long in school?

cep yeah, I am fine thanks. Dont be sorry you didnt do anything wrong. It was just weird seeing my posts on that thread - that was back when I thought I would get AF and be pregnant again in no time! (I was a lot more chipper then!)

Izz wow, was it only September? September isnt actually that long ago. I didnt look at the date, I just thought back to when I was at "that stage" and it felt like years ago! I guess a lot has happened in a short space of time.

Anyway, I've just been to another supermarket and found grapefruit juice So for your interest and amusement this month I will be conducting the Great Grapefruit Juice Experiment. Every day of my cycle until ov I will consume:
one tall glass of grapefruit juice
one pregnancy vitamin
one EPO capsule
one Flaxseed capsule.

I may even at some point put some eggnog in a test -tube glass of water cep stylee. All eggnog activity will be reported in real time and there will also be a brief summary by way of conclusion of the experiement after ovulation.

grief, what's that about 15 then??
ooh mamap i know drives me crazy.

mummya you ok?

velvet that would piss me off! Makes me almost as much as pregnant women who smoke outside maternity wards Pfffff there is no justice!
Big hugs lovely

Oh velvet how horrible. people who shouldn't even be having sex getting pregnant when it will cause them all sorts of problems and they are not old enough to deal with it. And us who desperately want it and are ready to bring up a child having problems. Life is very unfair. Is a bit of a tragedy in many ways for those poor girls too though in my opinion.

Oh my god velvet, that's shocking and bloody awful for you. Sorry pet Sod law isn't it? A mw friend of mine says she always know's the 15 yr old's baby will be fine whilst a broken hearted woman sees no heartbeat. Really sorry love x

How old is year 10? (I am still in the 1st/2nd/3rd year decade!)

velvet

oh yeah, forgot to say - I found out today that 2 of my year 10s are pregnant

You don't win friends with salad Velvet

Mummya sorry she got you, fx for a Valentines BFP :)

I don't have a problem with cm (in fact i probably have too much!) so what can I try??

You lot need to stop talking about food - I had a salad for dinner and then come on here and its all about the chocolate muffins and wine

I don't think the tiredness is unusual Orange

Starting to feel a bit low. My period pains are definitely getting stronger so I am in no doubt that AF is on her way and have just lost my rag with ds as he is being a bugger at bedtime atm so my lack of dealing with it calmly minus the shouting suggests a distinct presence of PMT

Evening all, sorry I've been so crap at posting, just unusually tired this week

Wombat my DH says the same about MN support, when I was bleeding he knew I'd posted and kept asking what replies I'd had, think it helped him too
Chloe I had accupunture and liked it, I've heard good things about it with fertility
Collie I hope WTF passes quickly so you can look forward
Mummya sorry to hear about AF, but like you said you have positives to improve on next month
Lily sorry your mum isn't more sensitive, I haven't even told mine I'm pg as she upset me so much last time
Cep I had less than half a pint of grapefruit juice a day and could tell the difference. Think it can't be from concentrate though
Jiggle sorry she got you, it's early days, and no reason to take the same length of time as before (((hugs)))

Just had takeaway Chinese [guilty emoticon] and have my scan date of 11th Feb, so nervously counting down

Evening everyone - just having a little break from marking exam scripts,and liking the wine and choc muffins talk.

Well AF arrived 2 days ago for me. First since mc - so a relief in some ways as shows things are getting back to normal and was about the same time since mc as my normal long cycle (36 days ish) Bit disappointing though as of course hoped I was pregnant. Will help explain the foul mood I was in at the end of last week though!!

Can empathise with the talk about mums not always being as supportive as you would hope. My mum was frankly useless after my mc and said a few hurtful things (unintentionally). Last time she saw me she asked me why I was still looking for part time work when I was wanting another baby. I didn't say (but perhaps I should have!) - because it took nearly a year to get pregnant and then I lost it so can't assume it is going to happen anytime soon (if at all)

Best get back to it.

mummya it's odd to read that list now isn't it? September feels like a lifetime ago! Sorry you've got cd1 blues it is by far the worst day and tomorrow will be better x

We've just made choc chip muffins here, covered with melted chocolate, a weight watchers nightmare but IMO things the dcs make don't contain real calories so it doesn't count
