    Evening all.

    Sorry for all the BFN for people. I'm in the bit to start DTD and have on CD7 and it's CD10 today so hopefully. On the OV side Lemon tree, I use the CBFT OV test sticks and it didn't pick up OV last month even tho my temp went up. The hormones stayed up but not to the peak bit when you OV. My MIL is convinced she got PG 2 days before AF showed up.

    I haven't a clue how people manage to get PG other than pure fluke because having all the information to hand makes us none-the-wiser or none-the-pregnanter!

    SBDTA and have a happy night :)

    thanks fanta you've just summed it up for me i just feel more confused and less in control by knowing so much but still so little.

    I'm wondering about starting the ov. stick things, any guidance anyone can give me on them?

    Thanks MV, may take a look at the supplements, but haven't a prayer of getting OH to take anything different. He just takes Boots multivit A-Z, so I have to hope he's getting what he needs from that. They do sound very expensive though.....

    (sorry im in a very silly mood at the mo and am quite happy coz we may have dtd around the proper time and if we didnt it was fun anyway :D )
    Love is the answer. At least for most of the questions in my heart,
    Like why are we here? And where do we go?And how come it's so hard?

    hi phunkles, nice to see you again.
    doesn't feel like there's much going on, I think a lot of people are on 2WW and there's not a lot to say about that, is there?

    I can manage to say something about nothing tho' hence my incessant rambling on here about the weather, lunch and lordy knows what else.:)

    last working day this week, less than two hours to go - yay!

    And after all my good intentions about eating healthily, one of my colleagues just brought a packet of buns in from Tesco, offered me one and I said yes! "Ooooh Thanks" and took one, just like that, didn't EVEN begin to think about refusing...willpower? what's that again? :o

    Meeting the manager of the hotel tonight where we are having our wedding reception next year to sign the contract and pay deposit which I am excited about!
    In the 2WW and symptom spotting, feel bit sick but sure that's cos I ate to much at lunch!!
    Iainsmum - if it makes you feel any better I would turn down a bun either!

    Iainsmum - see if I were you id now be changing my dieting mantra to - a little of what you fancy does you good :) not that Id ever do anything like that of course *ahem*

    I love incessant rambling both doing and reading though to be fair I probably should get a blog or something to post my ramblings into :)

    Im not even counting my 2WW this month

    ps what type of buns :)

    Tesco's teatime assortment chocolate sponges. I had the one with the chocolate icing AND choc drops on top. Not that I like chocolate that much, you understand, just felt like I had to protect the guys from a chocolate overload seeing as they aren't used to it like us ladies.;)

    Phunkles, I don't have a dieting mantra, I don't even have a diet, I just saw an apple and orange in the fridge this morning and thought "I'll take those in to work, it'll make change" and then I sit here and preach healthy eating like Dr Gillian McSomething-or-other! :o

    I've been promising myself for the last year to lose the half a stone that I've put on round my hacienda since I stopped breastfeeding but carried on eating like I still was (iyswim). Its only half a stone, should only take me a month if I cut the cr*p out, but I just don't have the inclination to bother, probably cos its only half a stone. But I know that if I do get a BFP anytime soon, that half a stone will get added to the PG weight and will be twice as difficult to lose next year - doh!
    Can anyone send me some bottled willpower? Or a magic spell to cast over my OH to stop him buying sweets and stuff when he's out and bringing them home to tempt me?

    Just what i needed today still not good I know I am NOT PG this month and just want AF to arrive to start again. :mad: I am so upset and angry think that things are catching up with me. If I could do this all myself it would be done by now I HATE to be reliant on other hate it hate it hate it :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    I am sorry I must sound like a right B**ch at the moment so feel that maybe I should stay away and lurk I don't want to but I don't want to bring others down with my broken heart :( sorry :(
