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.

OMG am so sorry - didn't realise you had got hitched. Knew the wedding was coming up but kinda didn't realise it was January. Congratulations - you all look lovely in the pics. Shame they're blurry but can just about see (the cataracts don't help - getting on now dear ). Gorgeous outfit. Hope you had a lovely day. You seem to have a neat bump from the pg pic but I remember you saying you are usually very slim. Nearly there now

scorpio1 · 02/02/2008 21:38

i'm normally a 6/8 so my bump feels ginormous to me - but others have only just realised , like my neighbours!

Yeah got married Jan 19th, 2 weeks ago today. was a lovely day but so tiring, we were really busy all day. i went home at 4pm to sleep

lol @ getting on a bit! i feel like that and im 23!

Yes you're right - Nappy's temp is very high - could be exciting

Scorpio - your neighbours have only just noticed because they're all old and probably partially sighted I remember you telling me most of them were elderly.

Morning Ladies I did a hpt today and it was negative. I was too impatient to wait another 2 days so serves me right I don't think it's happening for me this month so fully expect to get my period in a couple of days.

Went to the clinic on Saturday morning and have two really small eggs, so nothing viable at the moment. Going back tomorrow for another scan, fingers crossed they have grown!

Hope everyone had a good weekend.

Wooo Rah... High on the monitor, and two little eggs... what are we calling them this month? Come on eggies, get chubby

I hope you don't mind me asking you a non-temp question ... I have been taking Sanatogen ProNatal and my DH has been taking Sanatogen Gold. My tabs give me 50% RDA of zinc and DH's give him 100% RDA of zinc ... should we be taking any other supplements? Is there anything else you'd recommend?

Keeping my fingers crossed for your eggs this month, Rah

Clair

Period on it's way and ff says wtf is going on with your cycle No clear evidence of ovulation is what it actually says but lets not split hairs eh.

Rah - cosmic vibes on their way for your egglets. Grow grow grow

Hi everyone else

freddiesyummymummy · 04/02/2008 10:32

Morning everyone - how are you all?

rah hope those eggs get nice and big!

clair I'd stick to the pronatal as I know some vitamins aren't good for pregnancy (I know you mustn't have too much vit A for example, that's why you can't eat liver and pate when you're preggers). I don't know about zinc but I'd go with the pg specific vitamins only....

freddiesyummymummy · 04/02/2008 10:43

yep no vit A!

I'd ask a new question in the health/conception thread if you want to find someone who knows the science to it but don't think you should take anything else....

PS always check the labels on any pills and vitamins as most of it is a no no if you're PG anyway - I don't have any other vitamins to check but I only take the sanat pronatal and paracetamol for headaches when TTC just in case!

ClairLesley · 04/02/2008 10:46

Thanks for your advice FYM - sounds good!!

Sorry about AF, Ladylush, is she actually here yet or is there still some hope?

Nice to see the list growing again - all you newcomers must realise you are at the back of the queue, some of us have been waiting here a while and should be next to leave. (I wish it worked that way )

Rah - I know the IVFers are recommended to drink lots of water and milk (liquid and protein) to help eggs along. Not sure whether that is medically recommended, or another TTC craziness, but sounds reasonable to me.

Ladylush - have you posted your chart on the chart thread? I'm off to see if you have.

CHART THREAD

I thought I would start a new thread for our charts. The other one was all over the place. Hope no one minds Just post your charts on there if you like, then we can all check and see how each other is doing

ladylush · 04/02/2008 18:24

hi clair - no af not actually here yet but I've had some coloured cm and some twinges last night. I'm sure it won't be long. I take Pregnacare vitamins. I was taking extra folic acid too but gave up on that. I take max strength vit c if I start to feel run down eg get a cold or sinus problems. DH takes zinc capsules.

Rattling - I posted my chart on the relevant thread. Good luck trying to decipher it!

Ready · 04/02/2008 18:53

Evening all

Rattling, pmsl at you telling people that there is a queue Oh I wish (no offence to anyone who has been ttc less time, I just want a turn now )

Ladylush, looking at your chart, if the earlier temps weren?t higher then you have got a clear spike there to indicate ovulation on day 15. Were any of your temps high for any reason? Alcohol the night before? Later than usual waking time? Disturbed sleep? Less than 3 hours sleep? Fingers crossed for you.

ClairLesley, I take pregnacare. Dh was taking zinc daily, but now I have him on some vile tasting Selenium ACE tablets (selenium, and vits a,c,e) as well. Thinking about the Zita West supplements, they are pricey, but we are in discussion I?d say that if as you have not been trying too long then you should be ok with the basic vits. If at a later date (hope it is not necessary) you think you might want to try more things, then there are plenty of things out there for certain factors ? I would just say research, research and research.

Hanaflower, it is frustrating the first month of charting because you have no idea what to expect. Hang in there

I got a bit of a line on an OPK (thanks Rah) today , it wasn?t quite as dark as the control line, so don?t think it can be described as +? but hopefully tomorrow
