xx ei xx

Hey MrsEi lovely new thread - all brimming full of luck . Here is some lucky white Heather from Scotland for us - fingers crossed

ooh thanx mibbes i was goin to add a rabbits foot but felt bad for the rabbit and left it with 4 feet intact instead of 3 how about 4 feet with a rabbit attatched?? (fitting really as we are all at it like...)
xx ei xx

LOL, genius idea and very compassionate too. If we want to 'act' like bunnies we should be kind to them

What a lovely new thread thanks MrsEi

Hellp to BB2B hope you've found us over here ok.

Scary I'm glad you are feeling a bit brighter.

I had reflexolgy today it was ok but apparently I need a couple of sessions to re-balance my body - I wanted it to work NOW .

And the doctors appt was as expected - wait 12 months and come back in April if no joy by then. So all in all I have to be patient, relax and BD.
I'm fed up when will I get my baby!!! Ooops did I just say that out loud thats my frustration coming out. I do hope I will be blessed soon and all of you too.

Hi MrsEi - thanks for the new thread! I'm crossing fingers for January to be the lucky month!

07 - I hear you loud and clear! This seems as good a place as any to let out your frustration!!!

xoxo

why thank you MTW i do aim to please
xx ei xx

Thanks for the lovely new lucky thread!

Just spoke to DH and told him I am not pregnant and he sounded very disappointed. His boss is making him go away for work from Sunday night next week (instead of Monday) so I have suggested that a day in lieu at around the time I next ovulate is probably in order!

07 reflexology sounds nice, but doesn't it involve messing with feet? (shudders at thought of foot-touching). Also, vent away - 'tis what we're here for .

Hi everyone, reflexology is lovely, I had when pregnant with dd2, but I love my feet being massaged etc
Well I'm on the 2ww now too, trying not to think about it too much, but difficult when I know so many people who are pregnant But I have 2 lovely dd's and am trying for no.3 after a miscarriage in Aug 07, so can't complain.

MTW I totally inderstand your frustration - I am soo impatient and although only on cycle 2 just want my body to get on with it and do its job.
I guess I just need to chill and enjoy the ride (ooer missus!) as I have no right to complain / be impatient at this early stage.
Had a tiny bit of (TMI alert) brown stuff today - not the usual pre-af old blood wipe, more like brown CM - strange but then this has been a weird cycle for me. Temp was 37.1 today but I reckon Af will be on her way over the weekend.
Ho hum onwards and upwards for cycle 3 and some serious temp obsessing
ScaryHairy am with you on the feet touching front - I have very tickly feet so the prospect of someone touching them is not atall appealing. I think I'll leave reflexology until way further down the line

MrsEi, lovely thread, thank you

Scary, I too shudder at the thought of feet being touched. Thought it was just one of my oddities. Glad to hear I'm not alone

Ok, so officially on the 2WW, but really wondering what's going on. No signs of OV yet, despite being on CD16. Usually get pains from the ovary, af type symptoms, tender and swollen (.)(.) etc. This month? Nada. All I've got is constipation (sorry, tmi )

Still, I'm trying to console myself that BD'ing on CDs 10, 11, 13 & 15 should do the trick.

I JUST WANT A BABY!!!

Just checking into the new thread!!! Thank you MRSEI mibbes no chance that the brown cm could be an implantation bleed, is there? Sorry, have lost track of where you are in your cycle, and what CD you are. Just a thought. If it is Af starting, then i hope she turns up properly, so you can get down to some serious temping!

07MTW will be interested to hear how the reflexology goes. Did you find someone with an interest in fertlilty, or a general one? There was someone recently who got a BFP after some. Was it sarahnh?

Hello to glastochick scaryhairy BB2B

After 2 days of on my OPKs i don't have one today, so am hopeful that an egg will be hatching at some point today! We are both working half days today, so won't be on MN this afternoon..... gotta catch that egg!!!

Hope everyone has a good day. Bucky hope you are ok. I know you talked about "not trying" for a bit etc, but i hope you are still out there lurking! X

Hello to scully too! Sorry, hadn't read through all the messages properly. Hope your 2ww goes quick.

mibbes i have just been reading back through the old thread, and saw that you had a temp dip around 8th jan. Could that have been ovulation? I don't want to get your hopes up unecessarily, but just a thought. Right, i'm going to go and do something more constructive now, as i'm obsessing not only over my own cycles, but other people's as well!!

Morning all,

Mibbes hope that is the start of AF for you and you can leave the waiting for AF limbo.

glasto Just keep BDing for a while longer just in case your egg is delayed. I missed the boat by presuming I'd ovulated!

I'm because I've realised that I am probably not going to be able to TTC next month. I have a hospital appointment for a scan in Feb for which I have to have an injection of a radioactive tracer so obviously I can't be pregnant. If I was pregnant then I'd have cancelled it gladly but it is looking like I'll be on the 2WW so won't be able to try.

The test is because I have a condition which caused my liver to fail about 5 years ago. I had a transplant and I am fit and healthy . I just don't want to scan to show any deteriation because I want a baby so badly. I'm not sure DH understands how worried I am because bad news might mean we can't TTC - not that we are expecting bad news IYSWIM.

Sorry to burden you ladies with this but no one knows we are TTC and we are all in the same boat here.

Cross posted MOB Hope you have a productive afternoon

Morning all! Love the new thread, MrsEi. I have lost count of how many 2WW threads I have exhausted in my Cycle 14 run at TTC . I MUST be the longest survivor by now

I have managed to tear myself away from the Good Housekeeping threads about descaling kettles and I am focussing on TTC today! grin]. CD15 for me, which is usually the start of the 2WW for my 28 day cycle, but last month I was up to 31 days, so i am not so sure yet whether I am on the 2WW. I'll have to bat my eyelashes at DH again this evening . I managed to seduce DH last night (he's a push over ) and the day before and on Monday, so at least I can be sure that I tried this month

mibbes - yes I'm another Scot, although I am an ex-pat these days . Hope the lucky white heather works for me this month !

Right, I am off to do some much needed work. I can't seem to get into the swing of being in the office again after so long away, even though it has been a 2 day week for me

I'm here, I'm here . Just working hard for once!

Haven't had a good read really, but sorry about the BFNs .

GG how did it go? Did you go? Like I said haven't read properly but got the impression you were going to the docs.

I'm not stopping ttc, just trying to stop putting so much pressure on myself. I too have booked up with the reflexologist, although she says she is a 'holisitic therapist' so I have to write down all my food as well.... Quite embarrassing as today is day one and I have eaten:

1 coffee with milk and sugar
1 tea with milk and sweetner
2 digestive biscuits
1 hot cross bun

and its not even 12.00 yet. Not exactly nutritious!! I haven't even taken my vit and had a glass of water....must go off and do it now .

Sorry my ex cycle buddies PicknMix and Scaryhairy are having a time of it at the moment .

oh and thanks for the new thread MrsEi.

Jolly I crossed posts with you. I had no idea you had so much else to contend with as well as the stresses of TTC. You sound very positive and happy and this is definitely the place to talk about all the things stressing you about TTC, so please don't worry about spilling your heart out here . I never stop moaning about nothing in particular . Fingers crossed for a clear result in February.

I X posted too. for Jollybear

Hurrah! Bucky has returned from the wilderness.

Oh god, a food diary. My reflexologist/ nutritionist would sack me if they read what I ate yesterday....

1 black coffee
1 tea with milk
1 glass of white wine
1 glass of red wine
some Celebrations left over from Christmas
a prawn sandwich
can of Coke
two slices of buttered toast

erm....maybe that's why no beanie wants to make its home in my nutritionally starved womb

Lots of other people have appeared 9and, no, i haven't started doing anything more productive yet!)

Hello jollybear crumbs, what a lot you have been through. Come on here and say what you like, when you like, that is what we are all here for. It must be so disappointing that you cannot ttc next month, but have your scan, make sure you are in tip-top condition, and then get to it with gusto the month after! You are not, of course, allowed to go missing from the thread next month

GG lets hope that this new thread is a lucky one for you this time. And get fluttering those eyelashes later!

Bucky good to see you. You have been missed, but am impressed at the dedication to work!!! You food intake sounds fine - take the vits with some water, and that cancels out the biscuits and hot cross bun!!

Well GG gues what i had a 10am this morning - gnocci with carbonara sauce! Not sure if it was late breakfast or v early lunch! My excuse - ovulation - makes me crave carbs...

(That, and storing up some energy for an afternoon of BDing )
