  • Oh, hugs to everyone that needs them - especially Emmzy seeing as it's her birthday _party_

    There's definately a distinct lack of BFP's of late :confused:

    I'm just wishing, waiting and hoping after my mc that something happens - either BFP or AF! Totally overanalysing every single twinge in my "area" and poking my boobs so much that they are feeling sore...:o

    Anyhoo, sticky baby dust all round, this thread keeps me just about sane:D

    I am on CD12 & have had loads of EWCM since last night but my ebay OPK haven't shown up OV yet.

    We have BD'd today & are going to continue to try to every day until CD16, I have got to try to remember to take my folic acid, am trying to eat healthier & improve my iron levels by eating plenty of lean read meat & dark green veg.

    How is everyone else doing on the healthy eating thing, I'm finding it so hard as I do love my junk food.

    Yeah, it does feel like a while since we've seen a BFP appear, doesn't it.

    Not sure I even OV this month as these drugs threw my temperature all over the place - so will be interesting to try with the ClearBlue monitor next month, if AF ever appears!

    Natalie, I know what you mean.I crave a Big Mac at times, but have to settle for stir fry and salads. How dull! Ah well, suppose I'm fitter for it...

    I've been eating healthier, but I treated myself to a "DIY - Chinese" tonight, I can't not eat stuff like that!!

    Don't think my OH's ever seen a fridge so full of salad stuff in the 2 years we've been together!!

    Fingers crossed it's doing me good though, cause I feel better for it already

    I've managed to lose 2 stone 12 since February & I'm hoping that this will help TTC as my consultant advised that losing 10% of my body weight would improve my chances of conceiving.

    Let's hope we get some BFP's soon.

    I broke my leg & had to rely on OH to shop & cook, I quickly went off food, he's not exactly cordon bleu trained & there are only so many tins of tomato soup you can eat.

    Lol! 2 stone is pretty good going though, well done:D

    My OH is a trained chef but uses the "I've been working with food all day" excuse :mad:

    My OH knows how to use the microwave, that's about the extent of it. But I'm not complaining - I do actually quite like cooking, just wondering whether to start eating more spicy stuff again.

    Plus, having given up alcohol and cutting back on caffeine, I'm running out of things to drink! My shopping trolley might accidentally get some chocolate in it later x
