    Yeah, I live in Nuneaton now, but I was born in Portsmouth (biological sperm donor was in the navy) and I lived in County Durham until I was 22. Then moved down here to be with OH......aaaahhhhhh *insert vomiting smilie!!*

    Stef, only been to Tamworth once, nice place :)

    Speaking of animals, I got my teeny tiny hamster, Senna. He's gorge! Mum and dad have two persian cats, well one persian and the other my mum thinks is half persian and half ragdoll. I LOVE them......they're beautiful!:T

    Penny Thanks for the thanks! Sounds like a plan...listen to your body and then ignore it in the future if it chooses to misbehave again.
    Twinklie I'm not a teacher but I'm dreading your parents evening just thinking about itand that doing it with your teeth comment?- I had to re-read that cos I got v. confused for a moment.
    Maddie Aw, bummer about the massage....sounds like you kneaded it.
    Nunny Stick with it - it's a good course as I did it 3 years back. Your mind will be full of stuff.
    Sleepy Tiger Still sounds like you might still be in with a chance - especially if feeling emotional on top of all those symptoms. ;)

    12% of eggs left after 30. So given we have roughly 400 and 12% left is 48....given that I ovulate each cycle, I have 4 years left according to that bunkum - I'll be 36 and eggless???. I'm with GTS on this one. It's more scare mongering in the media.

    I'm off to watch Holby. What can I say? I like Linden Cullen :rotfl:

  • i feel i can de-cloak now from lurking as i've heard the magic name of Tamworth! I am a born and bred tammie but live in north london now. im 35 and we have been tttc since the new year but have been very unscientific about it! These threads have been a wonderful source of info and i even know when i ovulate now (well sort of!)

    I saw that article in the papers this morning too. I'm 35, but didn't meet my husband until I was 34, so what was I supposed to do?! It is what it is - you've just got to try, and hope that it is meant to be. Sometimes we may get a little help if we need it, and it works, sometimes it very sadly doesn't. Fingers crossed it will happen for us all. No point worrying that it won't - it won't achieve anything, except probably make things worse.

    I also read some stats that said:
    • [FONT=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial]25 percent of all couples become pregnant in their first month of trying [/FONT]
    • [FONT=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial]60 percent become pregnant within six months [/FONT]
    • [FONT=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial]75 percent become pregnant within nine months [/FONT]
    • [FONT=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial]80 percent of all TTC couples will be pregnant within a year [/FONT]
    so that made me feel a bit more positive.

    And I am going to be one of the tiny percentage that is still TTC after 2 years with not even the slightest hint of a BFP :(

    The good bit about teaching psychology is that I'm doing it after school and so all the kids doing it are little lovelies who are well into it. I'm really enjoying it! :D

    Having said that - I have a 40 minute commute each way to get to work...doh!

    Just had a call from a person in my department to say that there is a rumour that someone in our department is pregnant. Oh God! Thats all my friend needs. Do I do damage control and loudly laugh and say I've no idea what they are talkinjg about and make a joke out of it. Or do I ignore it and say nothing?

    Wahey finally feel like i am not living in the back of beyond.

    On the OV front, when i went in for folicular tracking i was told each of us around my age ahem 32 (who have the blood tests to check we are ov'ing) produce between 1 and 3 eggs per cycle. Sometimes there are a rare few who produce more and although it shows you are 'normal' producing more eggs than 3 is as bad as not producing any. HTH.
