    Just thought I'd cheer you guys up by letting you know I had to use the outside loo!! The door is broken though and I couldn't close it. I was desperate so just had to go with the door open! I had to empty my mooncup as well because I don't know how heavy I'm going to be given how different my cycle has been!!! :eek:

    I pray to GOD no one saw me!! My OH and FIL have disappeared off out to pick up some tools from FILs house though thank GOD!

    I thought the list needed bringing forward but I'm not sure if this is totally out of date or not.

    Welcome kamperkat :)

    Forgot what I was going to say now:o:rotfl:

    LL.... things are looking good;)

    Good to see you post MM:D

    Just been to see my friend who is due Monday and saw baby wiggling away in bump... I bet it was because he/she knew aunty lizzy was there!:D

    She's wanting me to go around on Monday as well and I'm secretly hoping baby wants to get out while I'm there:rotfl:

    Some of you oldtimers may remember a while ago that I felt my friend wasn't involving me much.... well I feel very involved now and I'm really excited although I did have a "moment" earlier whilst feeling bump... tears welling up and thinking its not fair!:o

    I'm hoping I'll be ok when baby is here. I can't helping feeling that it will be my only chance to be close with a baby as I'm not going to have my own.

    *smartie slaps hand* Come on PMA!!!!

  • Twinklie the list looks about right to me:D

    Smartie I hope you find some PMA soon sweetie but I can totally understand where you're coming from! i justthank my lucky stars that theres no-one I see on a daily basis who's pg..I may not be responsible for my actions:p
    Actually saying that, I have found out that my heffer of a neighbour(I was ranting about her a while ago as her middle had got a bit bigger!) is definitely pg:mad::mad: She could be anywhere between 6-8months on as shes still working but I'm not a happy bunny! The little cow is loads younger than me and judging by the rows we hear through the walls the kids gonna end up with a weekend dad......assuming he wants to see it(he's even trashier than she is!)

    Anyhoo, what I was trying to say before my rant got in the way:o:rolleyes:, was that everything will be fine and you and DH will have a babe of your own wen the time is right:D:D:D
    I seem to think we joined here around the same time...am I right or completely wrong?!?!:confused:

    I've just added myself in for august. I'm allowing a couple of extra days from when af is due as think it will have arrived before then and also started B6 yesterday so may hopefully have a slightly longer lp than usual!

    Becs our cycle buddy cosmic vibes must be in tune, I started b6 today!!!! With exactly the same aim...

    Slight TMI but today I've had some brown cm when I've wiped..... not a lot of cm, and it hasnt been brown every time but its a bit weird. Im starting to worry I havent had my + OPK. I got my kits from a different source this time round and Im worried I might have a dodgy batch and have missed the surge. I'll perservere with them till AF and then see if I can get some from the original source I had..... that or perhaps a CBFM....... can anyone explain to me the huge benefits and the price tag???? Do you have to buy anything else to go with it?

    Hi Cafc,
    cycle buddies indeed! I use the cbfm monitor, you have to buy packs of test strips to use each month. An average cycle will use 10 sticks and boxes are 20 and someone said they were £11.99 a box on amazon. The reasons I love it are:
    1. No temping so don't have to have get up at same time every day.
    2. More reliable than temping because not affected by heat, different waking times etc.
    3. If you have an erratic ov day temping only tells you when you have ov'd so doesn't help you with timing.
    4. I never got a positiv on opk's and couldn't test twice a day.
    5. (warning saddo aleet!) I look forward to the reading every morning, it's like a little present when you get a high! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hope that helps!

    i did wonder if you had to buy things for it each month....its mostly cost that puts me off.....

    Im so desperate to get my positive opk.... still gonna make sure I get 4 days of bd-ing with dh this weekend, no excuses LOL. I'm really lucky my forecasted fertile time falls on the weekends, as I have no energy for it during the week....with my long working days...

    Hi Cafcgirl - i didn't have a surge on my opk this cycle although i have been temping for the first time this month so that has confirmed my ov on cd10 (last month opk surged cd9). i'm glad i have been temping otherwise i'd think i hadn't ov!! so dont worry, you may not get the surge but still ov.
