Calling all Ma Ladies! Self Help & Girl Power!!!!

[Wishingwell]

Hey ladies! Some great responses and proactive work going on here as well as some deliberate relaxation which is probably just as beneficial!

Hey Mrs Wigglez! I understand that shift work WILL affect temping, but if you try really hard to take your temps straight after you've had the most amount of sleep, it shouldn't prove impossible and at least give you a framework to refer to. On rest days, temp as soon as you wake and note the time every time.

I'm a bobby, so I know all about shift work, especially on 999 response (earlies, lates, super-lates and nights)- OMG! I've just moved teams and and will not be doing nights this year, so I've now started temping daily.

Yo, Bonny! I'm on CD 3 an have a GP appointment on 25th Jan. I can't wait to hear how you get on with the acupuncture and reflexology. One of my best friends practices holistic therapy and had a beautiful baby girl without conventional medical intervention after she miscarried, so there is alot to be said for finding a way that works for you. I think as we start to see the BFPs emerge on this thread, it will just go to show how everybody is different and will respond to different things.

DW, Hi! Your post made me laff! I have been using cheapy i-net OPKs and they see to work for me. I can't remember the last time I was an Ovaltiney, but I may invest in a small jar the next time I'm shopping.

Kisses XXX

Hahahaahahaha, thanks hun. I've already broken though and tested on cheapy HPT's on Saturday, Sunday, Monday and this morning and so far they're all BFN's so not holding out much hope, even with the hot beverage boost! I haven't got a poas addiction at all....

mmmm ovaltine!!! I may also join in this! I did cut out all caffene last year but it didn't help me so I'm back on it again!!!

And my appointment is also on the 25th! Hopefully it won't take long to get referred though - but great to have someone else going at the same time - we can compare appointments!!!

See, Danni, you've started a stampede! Tescos won't know what hit them! Lol! Very best of luck with any other HPTs babe. I've got the old POAS addiction too. We should start a rehab group for that - heheh!

Bonny, I crashed and burned on our first month TTC in January. I've insisted on seeing the lady doctor at our surgery, cos the usual male GP was not the most sympathetic (least said ....). DH is in Germany during my fertile period over the next few days (I've got short 25 day cycles, and, i think, a 14 day luteal phase, with OV around CD 11) so I will fly out to Germany for three days next month. OMG - jetset ... who would have thought it?! xxx

Bugger! Aw, I'm Sorry, Danni! She got me the other day too, after teasing me with all sorts of promising symptoms. What a horrible old witch. xxx
