    Hope you don't mind me popping in to say, but I know a few of the 'graduates' of this thread still keep up with all your news as I do. There's a group on fb that has just been started for those that are parenting after infertility. It's a secret group, so it doesn't show up on your timeline - if anyone wants to get on there, pm me and we'll sort it out.
    Am not witty enough to put something cool and informative here:o :o

    God no, they're a contraceptive, didn't you know?

    Put down the Birdseye and move on.

    In all seriousness, I doubt they actually are. Really. That's silly. But a link has been made by someone somewhere, so I have avoided them until now.

    I eat them out of a sense of bravado, pure and simple.
  • I managed to hold out until last night to test to avoid disappointment. But I needn't have worried. The IUI worked and I got my BFP!

    I still can't quite believe it and am on my way to work via Boots to get more tests. Still very nervous. But I am 15/16 dpiui.

    Hip Hip Hooray. Congratulations Chocolate Cookie Monster!
  • Thank you Nicki.

    I just did a FR and the line came up straight away :).

    I know I didn't post here too often but I hope you all get your BFP's. I gained a lot of invaluable knowledge on this thread and probably wouldn't be here today without it. I will keep lurking as I am so used to every day now.

    Tonight I will be throwing out the pineapple rotting in my fruit bowl that I never got round to eating to help implantation :p
