Good evening everyone. Hope you both are ok MM and Munz you know we are all thinking of you. Take care both.

Spacecadet you are our first graduate on this thread and its only been going for a couple of hours congratulations to you.

I have left my sadness on the last thread and as I am now on day 9 I am starting to feel more optimistic. Thank you so much everyone for your kind words it is appreciated.

can someone tell me how drinking grapefruit juice increases your ttc chances please?

milosmum · 06/06/2005 18:36

trix- it increases your CM- and it really does work... my CM was a bit hit and miss but with a glass a day you can really see the difference.....

munz · 06/06/2005 18:37

MM - backatcha, will email u tomorrow from work, i'm also doing a lot better today (least i'm able to compose myself in RL without bursting into tears every 10 mins), the sun will rise and fall as it always has done, (besides I fear by cursing the gods and my body it's won't give me any beanies so insted i'm abusing it with chocolate - there goes the 8lb I lost on WW!).

I think it's easier to be positive here anyhow. right def off now for some dinner.

munz · 06/06/2005 18:37

MM - out of intrest is grapefruit juice really sour like the fruit or is it actualy bearable?

spacecadet · 06/06/2005 18:39

we have the vicar coming round tonight to discuss dd2's christening!

Trix1 · 06/06/2005 18:39

Grapefruit juice is sour - but I love it. I always have some in the fridge so I am going to ensure I have at least one glass a day - are you supposed to drink it every day?

Anymore tips?

milosmum · 06/06/2005 18:46

i ve found if you buy the shops cheap longlife variety- like asda smart price its nowhere near as sour as the really fresh stuff....- trust me its does work....

munz- really glad to hear you re feeling better, i still have my cries but got to stay positive, after all at least it shows i can get pregnant- just appear to have trouble holding the new ones in! my little bot loved it in there- he didnt want to come out and was 13 days late! - got to be doing something right.....

milosmum · 06/06/2005 18:47

sorry trix- yes have a glass everyday!!! cant think of any other tips right now but trust me ill post them if i do and im sure the other ladies have a few!

sparkly · 06/06/2005 18:57

My stats ..

Me 33
DP 27
DD is 5
CD 9 of month 10 TTC with 1 m/c in Feb 05

Spacecadet - such great news about your BFP!!! The first to graduate!!

Hulababy · 06/06/2005 19:10

LOL handbag - I wish! Update today is that our buyer is now lending 100% from the second lender (not mortgage compnay) and that the money is ready. We don't know how long he envisages the money geting here. Lender was supposed to fax the solicitors today and didn't. Dh does have his (or someone's) name and address. Also spoke to partner (Dh knows him through work) of an estate agents big here - he thinks the apartment will sell or easily rent. We have the valuer coming on Friday and will put it back on market if no further with buyer then. We will then give it a couple of months to sell - and take it from there before deciding on rental option. Me - stressed? No, surely not!!! LOL! Looks like the 3 story house is lost to us now BUJT we have found another house - a 4/5 bed, 4 story - in an even better location - we like. More expensive, but really like it and very tempted if available when we are sorted. We will get there.

wendy11 · 06/06/2005 19:17

Hello to everyone. Love the name of the new thread - lets hope we all get our beanies very soon.

Resting lots at the moment and also taking walks around the garden to keep the blood flow to the womb in good order. I am going to be a day time TV addict by the end of these 2 weeks

Actually feeling a bit flat today but I think it is just down to the fact that over the last few weeks we have had something to do be it injections or trips to the hospital and now it is just a waiting game but keeping as positive as possible!

Rom - how are you? Glad to see the weekend was not as bad as you anticipated and I hope you had a lovely time with DH's folks

Munz - sorry you had to endure such a horrible time at the Dr's. Keep talking to you DH and let your body tell you when it is ready to try again.

Spacecadet - Congratualtions. This new thread had certainly been a record breaker for the quickest new graduate. Take care of yourself.

Hope everyone else is doing OK. I will post some time tomorrow when I finally manage to drag myself off the sofa.

charleepeters · 06/06/2005 19:49

nobody testing this week then????

Im tempng at the moment its steady so far so no sign of ovulation, i had a temp dip yesterday not sure what that means but oh well waiting for ov hope its all of our month this month!

MRSflamesparrow · 06/06/2005 20:48

What do you guys advise...

When I was 17 and went on the pill, I had no cycle whatsoever - it could be 28 days, or at the most, 8 months...

The only time I have been off since then, I fell for DD before the first period.

How long should I wait before testing???? I wanna say to myself wait til day 30, and then test, but should I leave it longer still?

What is the average cycle length??

Hulababy · 06/06/2005 21:04

Any idea when yo might have OVd? I guess 28 days is the average - although it isn't many people who do have a spot on 28 day cycle. But maybe take it from there and see how you go.

BlueberryPie · 06/06/2005 21:33

Hello all, this looks like a good time to introduce myself and hop on to the beanie list. I'm brand new to all of this so let's hope I get the hang of all these acronyms
I'm Pie
I'm 29
DH is 34
TTC for all of three days!
CD 38 which is a bit odd since my cycle has always been between 29 and 35 days...but I can't possibly be PG because it's only been three days and I should have ovulated a few weeks ago. But who knows!?

Anyway, lovely to meet you all, congratulations to spacecadet and to munz and milosmum - I don't know you, but I really feel for you.
Beanies for all please!!!

Frizbe · 06/06/2005 21:57

Hi Pie! nice to meet you!

Spacecadet Congratulations! sooo happy for you {{{BIG HUG}}}

now remember no blue cheese, no caffine for 3 mths, no raw or dippy eggs, no rare meat, no pate, no booze, no fags, oh I could go on have I put anyone off yet?

Hula, ARGH, your buyer is a bloody nightmare, I agree we should send round a mumsnet lynch mob, grrr

Charlee I should be testing around 23rd ish, depending on cycle!

RachelRog · 06/06/2005 22:00

Trix1 · 06/06/2005 22:11

Hi everyone, Welcome Pie - You could be pregnant you never know until you test or the dreaded af arrives - good luck.

I am still waiting for best tips to conveive from everyone........

MRSflamesparrow · 06/06/2005 22:50

I possibly OVd around day 13/14 (had a low tummy ache for no real reason), but can't be sure....

MRSflamesparrow · 06/06/2005 22:51

Pie - glad to see someone who's been trying even less long than me!!!!

Harrizeb · 06/06/2005 23:14

Evening everyone, I've not been in work today and so haven't been able to catch up until now - and DH suggested that I went to bed without 'going on your web site'

Munz and MM - it's good to hear that you are feeling a little bit more positive today. {hugs} for you both, Munz so sorry the Dr was a cow.

Space Cadet WOW!!!! congratulations lady - where you lead others will follow

Charlee nice name for the thread,

I'm waiting for AF on 14th day before my DS 2nd birthday - how on earth did he get so old!!!!!

If it doesn't come then will be testing that weekend so I will be few days late by then. Not feeling particularly optimistic at this moment in time but we shall see.

Welcome newbies, Flame I'm in the same boat as you - missed a pill and fell with DS - was 9 weeks before I got suspicious so haven't got a clue what this is all about, but just about at the end of our first month of TTC so fingers crossed and see what happens. Good luck to you and Pie

Rachel fingers and toes crossed for Wednesday!!

Hi to everyone Rom, Hula, Rachelrog, Trix, Debs on hols, Bella, Charlee, Spacecadet, MRs FS, BlueberryPie, Sparky, Wendy - keep those feet up ,Frizbe - hello, Handbag that's were you've been hiding how the devil are you?
apologies if I've missed you off - Hello!
Night ladies and talk tomorrow
