    i heard that a sex style can determine the sex of your baby..true?
    I highly doubt it......more than likely an old wives tale or something
    Tested again. bfn. Am thinking negative thoughts about my age and the decline in fertility that is supposed to accompany it.
    Tbh I wouldn't worry too much about age.....a few of the recent bfps are women who are older than me(I'm talking more than a couple of years:p) yet they've got their bfps and I'm still here(I'm 26 btw).....I think a lot of it has to do with luck and making sure you bd enough:)
    HTH and remember we're here to have a whinge to if you need it;):D

    Not got anything to report, I ov today, I'm horny as anything and DH is feeling sorry for himself so have a funny feeling that we'll miss this month too...unless any of his swimmers have managed to stick around since last week I'm out this month:rolleyes: Will keep testing date anyway coz you never know;):D

  • I'm 36 too and managed to conceive in our 3rd month of trying.

    I've never tried to get preg/been preg before (that i know of) in my life.

    I think it's purely down to the individual.

    Good luck Laura :)

    No sign of AF now... I bet it's the calm before the storm though:rolleyes:

    DS has gone to play in snow.. although it looks like it's melting:confused: I woke him for his paper round/to phone to see if he had to go but they phoned just after (6.30am) to say roads were shut so no papers.. so it was back to bed for us:j I was already up just after 5 to wake DH for work. He only works 5mins walk away so had no excuse not to go in:rolleyes:

    Love. hugs and babydust x

    Morning all, we've got tons of snow today (I'd guestimate at at least 7" where it's untouched) which is unusual for the centre (well nearly centre) of Oxford! Work has been closed so I don't even have to lose out on annual leave. I did try to get in but only got half-way there before deciding it was too dangerous on the roads - the buses were going at a snails pace so it took me about an hour to get home (usually takes about 20 mins at most from where I got off the bus).

    Anyways, not a lot going on here, on CD19 for me, had a couple of twinges in my left side, but apart from that, nada!

    Hope things go OK today Laura

    Right I'm off to do some knitting (would be mad not to take advantage of being off work :D)
  • :mad: sorry just need to have a rant...I really hate my company!!!!

    Basically all 5 of us in my dept who work in various parts of the country and are all badly affected by the snow, have phoned in today to work from home. No response from our boss to any of us to acknowledge our calls/emails, until a sarcastic email comes through listing a bunch of people who made it in.

    I'm certain;ly not going to feel bl*ody guilty at not wanting to put myself in a situation where I'd probably get stranded...my boss lives about 10 mins away from the office too, and the people he mentioned who made it in live nowhere near any of us.

    He also knows I am preg...did he really expect me to trudge through inches of snow and try to do a (normally) 1.5 hour journey on 2 trains, when I'd most likely get virtually nowhere and then risk getting stranded????

    Its not even as if we cant all work from home. We have super duper laptops, blackberries, connection to the company network etc....auuugh makes me so mad.

    I'm so not going back there after squid is born...i've done my nearly 6 years at that place. Time to move on methinks!

    MV, I thought your employer was obliged to give you time off for ante-natal appointments? Not entirely sure how it works though.

    Bosses can be such a nightmare. I got snowed in last year - the only main route to work was hit by such bad snow that the army had to be drafted in to rescue people, cars were abandoned and people had to be put up in emergency shelters. This was all over the local news, so obvious that I physically couldn't get in, and yet my (now ex-) boss got all snippy about it. She who lives a 10 minute walk away, yet still drives! Lazy cow. Laughed when I found out that she drove in that day but couldn't get up the hill to the office, so had to drive home and then walk in :rotfl: That was one of the things that made me realise I really needed to find another job.
