Hi all,

Minxi - Thought I'd do what you said and start a new thread for 2008 (even though we have got a few days to go). Sorry to hear about AF but pleased your staying positive definately get reflexology going its worked wonders for me

Hope you have all had a lovely christmas

Well I am scared to type this (let alone say it out load) after last time but I got a BFP this morning!!! I am so scared and happy all rolled into one because of MC in October I so hope this one holds on.

FP - spot on with lp you'll soon be banging out all the abbreviations ... I started my MN life as Ready4Motherhood - and it soon became obvious that it wasn't going to last - and I have been Ready (literally) ever since

FurtivelyPosting · 02/01/2008 21:39

Ready - abbreviate away! My name is a bit of mouthful/typing fingerful!

With regard to the roll call, am I right in thinking that LP refers to luteal phase length? If so, then;

Furtively - cd2 LP13
Rah - cd3 LP
Minxi - cd8 LP14
Ready - cd13 LP12

If not, please excuse my ignorance!

Ready · 02/01/2008 21:04

Furtively - cd2 LP
Rah - cd3 LP
Minxi - cd8 LP14
Ready - cd13 LP12

Minxi - Glad to hear the shoulder was not hampering the effort ... I actually lost weight over xmas, which was a massive surprise - but I still want to lose some more, and now that we are more settled it'll be great to start working out properly again. I have convinced myself that getting slimmer and fitter might be the key to conceiving. Am I daft?

Talking of reflexology... have a little dilemma. A friend of the family is a reflexologist, and part of me wonders if I should go to her and ask about fertility reflexology, or do you think I should steer well clear from it in case she can't keep it to herself? I suppose my doubts should answer my own question, but just wondered what others thought??

Furtively - cd2 LP
Rah - cd3 LP
Minxi - cd8 LP14
Ready - cd13 LP

Couldn't remember the rest of the details....
Ready DH shoulder wasn't too bad this morning

Rah good luck at the hospital this month... and yes no periods for 2008 !! plus all 3 of us have moved and they do say new house new baby!!

I have started my health and fitness regime today - which I know half the population have but have been so slack on the exercise last few months need to get back to it...do not want to be sluggish and frumpy when I fall pg!! Oh I am soo optimistic!! Am also calling reflexology lady tomorrow !! Making appointments asap!

Here's to 2008...

Ready · 02/01/2008 17:16

Minxi - The move went relatively well. A few little glitches with the removal men. But I complained and got £100 back, so every cloud
Fingers crossed for you, get dh to lay back and enjoy if his shoulder is hurting

Rah and FP (hope you don't mind the abbreviation?) - fingers crossed for you both. Start the new year a fresh - I am liking the thought of no periods in 2008! I am CD13 today - so right at the business phase

Fingers crossed all round!! Should we do a rollcall???

RahRah1 · 02/01/2008 12:42

Sorry to hear that you got yours 2.. but I did think that I managed to squeeze it into 2007, so I now have it in my head I will not get a period in 2008 at all! That would be great for both of us!!!! Bring it on!

FurtivelyPosting · 02/01/2008 11:54

Thanks for the welcome, everyone!

I know how you feel, Rah - I started spotting on new year's eve and then came on with a vengeance on new year's day, so it's CD2 for me today. Bit of a downer but I'm trying to think along the lines of new year, new cycle, new start etc etc.

RahRah1 · 02/01/2008 10:58

Welcome FurtivelyPosting...

Hope everyone is well.

CD3 for me today... bloody came on new years eve! GRRRR

So off to the hospital again this month, hopefully with a little more success than last month

minxi · 02/01/2008 08:58

Happy New Year girls....

I am on cd8 today and no action with dh as yet this cycle!!! too many family around and too many sick days with colds and coughs etc and now he has a shoulder muscle thing going on!! oh well we have the weekend I guess.... Had very busy christmas and new year but got some lovely things and very happy and settled in new home!

Hi Ready and Rah - hope all is well...how was the move Ready?

Welcome furtively...hope this is a good year for you....

Hi Nappy wherever you are...

Ready · 01/01/2008 18:45

Welcome to the thread FurtivelyPosting - Had a lovely NewYears thanks. Sounds like you did too. Here's to 2008

scorpio1 · 01/01/2008 12:29

congrats Gracie

FurtivelyPosting · 01/01/2008 12:10

Congratulations, Gracie - what wonderful news!

Mind if I join in? I'm hoping to conceive this year. Have been temping for a while with another website (one that's specifically for charting) and started using OPKs for the first time last cycle.

Just started a new cycle today so I feel all new year, new cycle, new start, fingers crossed.

Did everyone enjoy NYE? I had a nice night in with the family, which was fun.

Ready · 31/12/2007 13:15

Got a great big bottle of disarronno for christmas, so fully intend to throw some of that down my neck this evening.

Ready · 31/12/2007 13:13

Back online... and what am I greeted with - some wonderful news from Gracie - yay! Congratulations chick, so happy for you. Big hugs, take it easy and try not to worry.

How is everyone? I am going to be driving you all mad now that I have internet access

Here's to 2008 - what a year it is going to be!!

Thankyou for all your kind messages.

Thinking - If everything goes well due date will be late august/early sept but still only 4+5 today so have such a long way to go. But trying to think positive. Hope your well

WOOOOHOOOOO... Many congratulation Gracie XXX
I'm sure this little Beanie will stick, have faith and enjoy.

Christmas was good in the Rah house hold. I got lots of gifts and got a special pressie from Dubai.

I have left my laptop at the office, hence why I have not been on line. But nipped on DH, but it seems painful to him! GRRR

Hope everyone had a lovely Xmas and wishing you all a great new years eve - of course no drinking now for Thinking and Gracie... but for the rest of us.. well a few glasses won't hurt!

Take Care and speak soon X

Thinking · 28/12/2007 20:39

Oh Gracie, I am so happy for you

Sending so many sticky bean vibes your way. So you are expecting an September 2008 baby ?

minxi · 27/12/2007 16:43
