[Lynny77]

Oh Fezzle! I'm so so sorry to hear this news!!!! So heartbreaking!!! Big big hugs to you!!!'

 

[Bug222]

Oh Fezzle- I'm so very sorry xxx


Beautiful pic Sporty!!

 

[Squig34]

Very sorry Fezzle. You're right that it's good news that the Clomid worked, albeit probably rather cold comfort right now - but I'm glad you feel some encouragement from that too. MC sucks

Great news, Sporty! Lovely scan

Kwynia, what is penuche?

 

[Tui]

So sorry to hear your news fezzle. I had hoped you would be lucky and not have to suffer this fate. Good on you for being positive though. You know its possible now. Next time will be a keeper xx

 

[kwynia]

I haven't tried it yet, but it's kinda like a fudge made with brown sugar instead of chocolate.

 

[confuzion]

So sorry fezzle .

Sporty - so happy for you that's a gorgeous bean .

Tui - for veggie juicing, I find adding carrot and/or apple to the strongest tasting veggies (kale, beets, Swiss chard, etc,). A little lemon or lime too makes for a nice flavor. Ginger (I happen to like the taste of ginger though I know many find it gross ). All very healthy, and I find delicious. We haven't juiced in a while though we bought like 15 lb of carrots the other day we shoulD really put them to use asap!

I also love the combination of carrots and celery together!

TWW for me starts tomorrow pretty sure! Will take an OPK tonight to see if LH is on its way out

 

[Tui]

Thanks C. I'm not a fan of ginger but I know it has great benefits so , maybe I can sneak a bit in and not notice. Think I'll skip the beetroot, it sounds like a clothes/washing disaster in the making, lol. Guess I'll just have to try a few combos and see. Off to buy a juicer next week.

 

[confuzion]

LOL yeah I'm surprised I didn't ruin clothes with the beet juice since I'm usually a messy eater/drinker . I wasn't a fan of the taste of it without something sweet to cut it. Tasted like I was drinking dirt . But with Apple it was good.

Anyway, let me know how it works out for you and what combos you like together! Maybe you can give me new ideas

 

[Squig34]

Funny you should say that about beetroot, C, cos I sometimes roast it and it does have a real flavour of earth (I prefer to say that than dirt ). But I loathe celery and that is all I have to say about that.

 

[Lynny77]

I've never tried beets. Not sure why! Maybe the colour?

bfn for me today just waiting af. Womp womp.

 

[cutieq]

Boo that bfn!

I've never tried beets either.

 

[Tui]

Sorry lynny. What dpo are you? Is there still time?

 

[Lynny77]

Thanks cutie and tui! I'm drowning my sorrows in a glass of wine!

No time- I got a positive opk 15 days ago but my fertility monitor didn't peak so I'm guessing af will start sometime this week. Certainly feels like it! I'm cd36 today which will make me almost as long as my mc cycle! My dh does remind me that this was my surgery cycle and my uterus suffered a trauma so that cushions the blow a bit lol.

Bfn still sucks though! Come on next cycle so I can start femera and ovulate in 14 days woohoo!

 

[Bug222]

Sorry Lynny xxx

Beets were one of Iains favourite "first foods" - his cloth diapers needed a lot of sun to get the stains out though! Lol

 

[Squig34]

Boo for BFN Lynny but FX for the femara cycle!

Ha ha Bug, I can imagine that was challenging all right!!

 

[Tui]

Just sent DH off with a yummy Mediterranean salad, (I used "exotic" rice this time instead of bulgar wheat), and a white chocolate and raspberry cheesecake. Wish I'd taken some pictures for you but I forgot. Hope they enjoy it.

 

[cutieq]

You've been busy. It all sounds yummy!

 

[Tui]

I've been slowly going off sweet stuff so I'm not bothered that I don't get to try the cheesecake, lol. Trying to be more healthy for baby. It all seemed real after the scan. I've been having fruit for breakfast and stopped snacking so much. I've gone from wanting chocolate every day to just staring at it in the cupboard thinking naaah.

No ms so far, but I've never had even an inkling of it before. Think I'm just one of these women who doesn't get it! Haha you watch me eat those words later, lol.

 

[Lynny77]

Ha Tui hopefully ms stays far away!

I don't have a sweet tooth at all but this pms I'm eating an obscene amount of chocolate. It's shameful! Still no af I wish she'd just start so I can move on!
