Charter's Anonymous: Volume 4, hoping our bodies obey the rules!

[MrsArchchancellorRidcully]

Brand new shiny thread created (sorry Getdown, I am bored at work )

Hoping that all of us still waiting get the news we want and soon!!

At least it's almost New Year, new start

Raven conceive plus? Is that pre-seed lubricant? We've been using it for 3 cycles now. This is also my first cycle of using EPO and vit b complex.

No bloody ewcm though!

If I have ov cd15, at least I was releaxed about it as I wasn't aware!

Just popping in to say congratulations to raven! I have just started cycle 9 so hopefully it will be the lucky one for us too.

MrsA your chart has me. Maybe after a couple more days of temps it will change its mind.

congratulations raven!

Congrats raven!! that's fab xx

mrsa FF will prob change it after a few days, it's changed mine from cd10 to cd14 then to cd17! Hope you are doing ok.

chart here not too exciting.

Waves to mrsp jaggy nix split terrys battery weimy mslk getdown izzy truffkin digi pippa and anyone else I've missed off this massive list.

Hello all - quick pop in from me as I am at work - I am so pleased for raven and pippa - this thread is lucky :)

MrsA I use conceive plus too - it is like pre seed - just a differnet brand. Also I think FF may change its mind once you start getting high tamps - last month she said I OV on CD8!!! When I ignored her and started doing my OPKs and my temps rose then she soon changed her mind, so don't panic yet!

I also drink grapefruit juice too - makes a load of difference- I am normally a bit on the 'dry' side but when I start glugging that - its EWCM all the way!

I am on 9DPO - temp took a bit of a dive today - am hoping its Ovulation dip as I have had some cramps over the past 2 days but I am seriously not getting my hopes up .I normally have an LP of 14 days so a while to go yet.

Hope everyone has a good day - wave to iwish mrsp jaggy digi and everyone else - best go before I get sacked

Congrats Raven that's brilliant!!!

To whoever mentioned the grapefruit juice... When in your cycle do you start drinking it?

Raven congratulations! This is a lucky thread this month :)

Also, how's this for coincidence. This month was also our 9th month of trying, also the first month we used Conceive Plus, also the second month DH had been taking zinc, we'd also both stopped drinking (though only in Jan) and I also joined Charters' Anonymous this month...the only thing we did differently was I didn't take EPO. Spooky!

auntieD - it was me with the grapefruit juice - I start drinking it about a week before I am due to OV - I love the stuff so drink about a pint a day but I think a normal size glass will do it. I really notice the difference.- It has to be not from concentrate. - Just the fresh stuff x

My Dp is also on zinc - I use concieve plus etc etc - I hope I can carry on with the trend!

battery. Your chart Is looking lovely, I'm stalking you now :)

I tried the grapefruit juice but I didn't like it so only drank about 1 1/2 litres, didn't do anything for me tho. My DP has been taking multi vits Inc Zinc but only started this month.

Sooo who's starting the new Fred?

Quick post to say congrats to raven

Cervix is near closing, but not firmly shut. Temp still not up. Given up on interpreting this for now. I have forked out for 3 months of VIP on FF in a 'do something positive' vein.

Dashing into a meeting, will catch up on others later.

Afternoon ladies

Just a quick post while at work.

Congrats Raven

And thanks for looking at my chart MrsP81 Temp was a bit higher today so feeling a bit better.

Raven big congratulations to you!!

I have just bought some pre-seed for this month, and also started taking EPO....for those that are using EPO what doseage are you taking?

xxx

congratulations raven! tried to post on way into work today but signal failed. :)

i am just taking one 500mg epo capsule. no idea if it's making any difference yet!

Congratulations raven Come and join us on the Charters antenatal thread!

tory I took EPO back in May and I was taking 1000mg or 1500mg a day (can't remember which, probably 1500!) in 500mg capsules. It made a massive difference that cycle and I had loads more EWCM. Don't take after ovulation though as it can sometimes cause small uterine cramps/contractions so not helpful for implanting.

Hello everyone else!

And the great thread starting fight can begin

Congratulations raven!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the advice Mrs P

I am 6/7 dpo and have no symptoms so have decided to get the epo, grapefruit juice, zinc and conceive plus a soon as ERTD gets me :0

Got to do some wii fit but will be back later no doubt!!!!!

Hi everyone! Hope you are all ok today. Just got home from work fighting through the fog that has covered our villages for the past 2 days. I drive over the hills and the view from the top is amazing, you can just see a thick layer of fog covering the village. I'm one of those wierd people who loves snow, darkness and fog.

Anyway... Raven how are you feeling after seeing the all important bfp? xx

I shall go off and start us a new thread if noone has any objections? Xx

Go ahead iwish Hope it's luckier than the one I created (for some)!

I take 500mg of epo. Didn't realise I should take more.

And yes raven come back and tell us how you are feeling. Is this your first pregnancy?

Terrys a quick qn. You said you were off to Germany. How do you cope with being away and DS? I'm away for a week in Feb with work - am dreading it. Will miss DD. Never been away from her for that long before.

Look forward to the new thread iwish, I might hang around a bit before heading to antenatal if that is ok?

Feeling good! I did my test at 5am and woke DH up to declare the result then had to whizz for an early flight and have been on a really intense training course today. Have work to do tonight, then at 7:30am my meetings start, then back to the training course, then a late flight home. Won't get to see DH until about 10pm tomorrow night. So I guess I am saying haven;t really had a mintute to take it in or think about it. I definately have some womb twinges. Am definately more than a bit worried this won't end well. But have to be optimistic that there is a very good chance all will be perfectly fine.

I was told by the consultant after my late MC that I would get an 8 week scan so will focus on getting that appointment booked and will visit my GP in a week or so - or maybe will need GP to refer me to consultant.... who knows yet!

Really wish everyone loads of luck in current cycle. I will be chart stalking!

ravenyou have been busy today. Make sure you get that scan booked asap then (gives best stern mum look)
