Trying for a Baby part 5....

sleepytiger

Thanks fanta. I know everything probably isn't perfect. Nothing ever is. But sometimes, when they're showing pictures of their 6th or 7th holiday that year, or how cute their baby is, it's hard to shut up that green eyed monster. What OH and I have is good, but we've had to work hard for it all.

And yes, Desperate housewives would be better with someone in it who actually looks like they eat something once in a while, or someone who doesn't look fresh off a catwalk. Where are the people lounging about in their jammies, eating icecream from the tub with uncombed hair and spots??

Ok. I've been googling the ov pain thing and cant find anything. Perhaps was just trapped wind or something.

But sleepytiger, we are more fortunate than some, since we have found someone with whom we'd like to have our baby with:)

I have so many friends who are still looking for theirs, or have found someone, but can't consider having kids due to finances etc.

@tigtag :j:j CONGRATULATIONS :j:j

@sammy - good luck for your interview.

@MS - so happy for your good news :A

I'm off to the docs this morning. Getting more strong pain killers for my awful non-pill periods. And going to ask about benzoyl peroxide while TTC and being pg.

Af arrived over night, CD1 for me. Can I please come off the list?

Sorry AF arrived ((hugs))

Went to docs, he said benzoyl peroxide is safe while ttc and during pregnancy. It's not mentioned in his book.

Mefanamic Acid is not safe, but I'm only taking that while on my period so deffo not pg.

I mentioned being wheat free and he told me to be careful, he's not convinced by the wheat free thing. I'm not sure what to do. Maybe I should eat some wholemeal wheat products, but just not 2 - 3 times a day like I used to. Argh, decisions.

He's given me some stronger laxatives to help with the constipation while on my period. But I don't want to take them cos I don't want to be reliant on them. I want to solve this naturally. I think I won't take them unless I'm in pain.

Just seen this - (you guys talk too much! I had loads to catch up on after one day away).

What race are you running? I attempted a 5k race for life once but walked half of it

Hi Giz I am doing a 5K race as part of the Great West Run that we have in Exeter in May. I am training by being dropped off at my daughter's school & then running home which is about 4.5 miles :eek: takes me just under an hour.

I figured that as I do quite a bit of running with the race in May even if I did get a bfp i would still be ok to run.

Morning.

So I had the dentist yesterday with my daughter and she is being reffered to a specialst!!! :eek: . I was told that I would have teeth issues again when I have another child (spot the PMA!:D) . I lost 6 teeth when I was PG with my daughter back in '97 and still have things done as a result of that .

Last night we didn't DTD as DH was on duty & I was shattered. Best laid plans...........................:mad::mad:

On the plus side I have another reflexology session today

Hugs & Baby dust of the sticky variety to all you amazing ladies :A

Was it a gum issue?

I don't like dentists, haven't been for a while, but I don't have any cavities/fillings since I was a kid.

Dentists are usually very impressed and asks me what I eat etc:cool: (Same as other members of my family who are having their fillings done at the same time:p).

Quaver again is the wise lady of the board!

Tiger I know what you mean. It's hard not to feel the green eyed monster when people keep falling preg around you, online and in real life

Tinks - sorry to hear you missed out on jiggy last night. i'm always shattered in the evenings too. Modern life is rubbish!

CD23 for me today. I've (90%) decided that if AF hasnt reaered her ugly head by Saturday, I'm gonna test. I have a good friends birthday do on sat night, and I'm swaying between going on the train and having a few drinks, or driving and being good. It'll be an early test (slapped wrists all round), and I may get a BFM either way, but...well I'm kind of justifying it to myself!

I'm nervous even thinking about it
