    EDIT: Did I scare you all off??? You've disappeared!!!

    Oh and my wee urges are not dissipating any. It's driving me nuts now. I'm going to keep a note of how many drinks I have tomorrow and how much I go to the loo. I could just be drinking extra I guess!

    NONE! It's top secret...I defo won't even hint at it until I get a BFP and am at least 12 weeks. Unless something forces me too in the meantime anyway.

  • See im in the tell no one and if anything happens no one til 12 weeks camp
    However ohs just had a very strange convo with his grandmother which has freaked him out (personally i think shes just old and a bit batty - lovely but bit odd) as she mentioned babies and how hed have twins this year she thinks and when he said pardon she started talking about the dog???
    Oh yeah look at the gene pool im gonna be mixing with :)

    Im being very random sorry ill try and stay focused.

    Ok related Q - if AF should be late how long do you think you should leave it before POAS (when AF went missing last year I left it just under a week but mainly cause it wasnt a planned thing and I couldnt get the bottle to take it before then)

    When we found out xmas eve we told OH brother xmas day, my parents boxing day then the kids on the monday. Started to tell some family members on Tues after getting it confirmed at dr's. We didnt tell OH's parents as we have not spoken to them since 2 weeks before our wedding when his dad was totally out of order for the way he spoke to me and my children while intoxicated and seemed to 'forget' about it when confronted the following day anyhow OH thougt it only best to email his mom and tell her before his nan broke the news, we got an email back the day after the mc saying how she had known for over a week and was very vague in reply, then had another one instantaneously offering symapthies as his nan had just filled her in. We asked her to divulge the information as to whom had told her but she feels it necessary to protect her source and will not tell us who it is - would rather hurt her son and protect informant. So we have sat down talked it through and we are not telling anyone next time until it cant be hidden anymore so as to stop the stirring. Sounds immature i know but you would have thought something like this would bring a family together not force it apart even further.

    you lot are making me feel hungry with all this talk of food. I'm just about to leave work and then have to go to the gym, it'll be at least 8 till I get my tea....:(

    Smartie those cakes look scrummy ,yum. I'm suppossed to be detoxing, lasted a whole week without cheating untilI had to have few squares of fruit and nut last night (I blame the witch :o) but back to my brown rice salad and carrot sticks today. Its not bad actually I love salads and that, I usually only have 1 cuppa a day and I don't add salt to anything, I'm just really missing the sugar although this detox has made me realise how much sugar I must consume daily.

    must not eat cakes, must not eat cakes

    right off to the gym to forget about cakes :p

    hugs and sticky bean vibes to all that need them :grouphug:

    smartie - they really do look scrummy! :D

    notmyusualname - have a ((((hug)))) from me too. It really is hard this TTC business isn't it - no matter how hard to try to 'relax and take it easy'. It doesn't seem to affect men in the same way so you're probably going to be confusing your OH. We understand though x

    Me and OH have told quite a lot of people that we are trying (well, mainly me really!). I quite like people knowing, and it doesn't bother me when people ask if I'm pregnant yet (which they do and I imagine would upset some people).

    When (not if!) we get pregnant I'll prob tell all the same people as soon as we know/when we next see them. Personally I think if I have a miscarriage then I'd want to share that with them and therefore think its ok for them to know about the pregnancy straight away (I also think perhaps they would understand my feelings better if they'd have know I was pregnant).
    Proud to be a moneysaver! :cool:

    THEY TASTE YUMMY!!!!:p;):D

    I told a few friends we were TTC. We've told my DS about PGness because we didn't want him overhearing anything or thinking that something's going on. I did make sure I told him that it was early days.

    I'm not going to tell anyone else for a while yet although I'm sure my best friend will guess!
