Hi everyone,

Timeforafamily and Chody: Sending lots of sympathetic thoughts your way. Hope there is better news on the horizon for you soon

Kitfaerie: thank you for all the laughs. The 'Braveheart' talk gave me a good chuckle. Also can relate to the 'obsessiveness' factor. The idea of having a baby is on my mind every day. I had to find ways of thinking about other things during the 6 months when I couldn't TTC. Am finding it harder now that I AM allowed. Each month just drags!

Ferrals: Glad your family had such a lovely idea for including Abbi in their birthday celebrations.
Totally understandable that you've been taking some strain after all you've been through. I think it's great that you can be kind to yourselves and cut back on your diet and herbs program if it's not working for you. As you say, there needs to be some relief from thinking about TTC some of the time.
I'm not generally a cat person but the photos of your beautiful kitten were just about enough to convert me. 'Angus' is very cute but i thought 'Mowgli' was cool too (i liked the Jungle Book as a kid).

Murray Cod: hope you're feeling better soon... or not? If preggy symptoms could be more than just the medication may they continue!

Mummyof4: congratulations! hope things keep going along nicely for you.

Bons, TTCALC: thanks for the welcome

Hello everyone else.

AFM: My body is doing all sorts of wierd stuff. Dont know what to make of it. Last cycle on about cd15 and cd16 I got period type pain both sides of my tummy (low down) and tingly bb sensations. I never had these symptoms before around ovulation time but i'm guessing that that's what they were. (AF came cd31). Now, I'm getting some period type pain both sides again but it started cd 10 (now cd 11). i'm usually a 30ish day cycle. it's too early for me to be ovulating isn't it? And i don't remember feeling this before my miscarriage at ovulation time. In the past this was a pg symptom for me but i can't be pregnant cos i not long had my AF.

Anyone else get these types of symptoms around ovulation? Is my body just a bit twitchy hormonally as i'm only in my second natural cycle after my miscarriage (with 3 months on the pill in between)?
