Does the grapefruit juice thing work?

MINNIE1 · 08/10/2004 11:04

i'm on clonfolic, the hosp said that this is the one i should take..

Bagpuss30 · 08/10/2004 11:09

Thanks Twiga. Are the tests the normal sort as the last batch of cheapies that I got I found you had to use a cup to collect and then a dropper thingy which was very difficult when shaking like a leaf with excitement. When I also didn't get the result I wanted I just thought that the tests were obviously faulty until af arrived of course .

You will all have to send me some self control vibes now that the tests are in the post too. God I'm only just ov'ing and I can't believe I have just typed that, I am soooooo impatient.

Apparently so runtus, I picked it up off another board and some ladies there were getting success with it, but I've never tried it myself.

sweetheart · 08/10/2004 11:11

Right you lot!!!!

I have no internet access over the weekend. I'm on a course Mon & Tue next week and then I'm off work on Thur SO.....

I only have Wed and Fri available for MN use in a whole week!!!

Please, please, please, please, plase, can you keep the chatting to a minimum - otherwise it will take me another week to catch up!!!!!

I'm gonna miss so much

sweetheart · 08/10/2004 11:46

Well I was hoping it would have some affect but this is mad!!!!

Sorry, didn't mean to offend anyone - was only joking!!!!

MINNIE1 · 08/10/2004 11:47

sweetheart,
Hope you have a good week..

Bibi20 · 08/10/2004 11:59

Sorry, sweetheart, I love coming back to MN and catching up with the chat - so I want everyone to keep it up!!

Hello to all the newbies, I don't post very often but have been around for a few months. I'm 30, ttc # 1 since Dec '03 after aeons on the pill.

Had first blood tests yesterday to check whether I'm definitely ovulating, progesterone levels, thyroid function etc. DH having his swimmers checked so dropped off his little pot first thing (having kept it warm by tucking it under my armpit!)

Results will take a week or so, in the meantime I'm cd25, af due next Thursday so I'll be mostly spending the next few days imagining symptoms...

Bibi20 · 08/10/2004 12:05

BTW Valleygirl, I've heard that temping isn't always accurate. Best to use the other signs and temping as a back up.

A friend who was temping had a cycle where she didn't think she'd ovulated until really late as her temps didn't go up for ages... anyway, early on during the two week wait she noticed she had constantly erect nipples - turns out she was already 5 weeks pg and had ovulated much earlier!

cp3 · 08/10/2004 12:24

Dont know what to think this morning about this ovulatiuon thing. I def ovulated on Cd10 am on cd12 now. Made sure we bd'd on 10 as my cm was so watery straight after af this month. And now have all dried up again sorry if too much information but im sure Tessiebear will know what i mean.

Anythoughts???? Am i pregannt has my cm done this too protect my liitle eggs

BibbityBobbityBoo · 08/10/2004 12:26

Sorry CP3 haven't clue but fingers will be kept crossed

Tessiebear · 08/10/2004 12:28

Certainly do CP3!!!! I think that CM goes dry/sticky straight after OV - as you say for protection. Are you sure you OVed ? Only saying that as i had the same thoughts on about CD13/14 and was sure i had OVed (but got wetness and no eggwhite) CM then went dry for about a week ... then thickened up again (and went creamy) then yesterday (CD23) EGGWHITE!!

Tessiebear · 08/10/2004 12:30

I think this is because i have come off the pill that i am OVing late

runtus · 08/10/2004 12:31

CP3 I remember reading on FF that cm goes straight back to looking like infertile again after ov, so it would go dry again I guess. Apparently there is no way of telling if you are pg from CM after ovulation becuase of this, so not sure you should read too much into it. That's according to FF anyway.........and we all know there have been loads of cases of peoples bodies defying the books and experts!

Twiga · 08/10/2004 12:34

Bagpuss the clear blue digital ones I bought were from tesco and you just wee on the end, it then tells you very clearly in words pg or not pg, no lines to watch for, and easy to use.

Sweetheart, have a great weekend and we're try not to chat too much without you. can you leave behind your signature cure of chocolate cake with someone, just in case we have need of it while you're gone x

Cp3, no idea, sorry. How are the twins?

MINNIE1 · 08/10/2004 12:35
