Hello newbies! And poo crumbs is a great topic to start off with. Can I recommend the wanking monkeys thread to you? It is a hoot.

precious - there's a whole menopause board. If you want to stick with the HRT (I'm lucky, it's worked brilliantly for me) there's a great poster on there who is really clued up, and in particular seems reallly knowledgeable about bio-identical HRT (my body must be that of an old cart horse, because the conjugate equine horse-piss based stuff works fine for me). Failing that there are loads of great suggestions on coping without HRT, both for those not comfortable with HRT and those for whom it is ruled out on medical grounds. Things like replace your duvet with wool blankets, have separate duvets on your and DH's half of the bed with different togs, those spray things you can use to spritz your face when you have a hot flush, etc. (Having left my childbearing ludicrously late in life, I now have menopausal symptoms and a very bouncy 8 year old! I may not be a granny, but I am a great aunt).

Could I ask what AIBU is please?

wombattoo · 30/08/2016 16:31

AIBU = am I being unreasonable

UnGoogleable · 30/08/2016 16:36

Aww hi everyone.

You need a thick skin around here sometimes, there are some caustic folks that walk among us. Don't worry about people recognizing you as a newbie though - there are thousands on here, and people name change all the time (I do), so no one would know you were new.

Beware though - MN is a time vampire which sucks hours of productive time from your life ....
