No testing early ladies(sorry about the formatting - updating on works PC and its not liking the smilies and fonts for some reason)0 -
Does anyone want these?
I have two tubs of seven seas folic acid with added vitamin B complex (good for luteal phase). Both bottles are well in date and sealed.
Just after I got my bfp, I got put on a higher prescription-strength dose of folic acid by the doctor who said it's new research that bigger ladies need to take a higher daily dose. She said it so nicely I wasn't offended!
If anyone wants them please PM me. I will give them to the first person who asks. UPDATE *** Now gone to a good home ***
Hope you're all well.

gratefulforhelp, sorry to hear about your MIL.
Perhaps you could try less stressful approach, not trying but not preventing?
BigSister2008 glad your Doctor thinks it's nothing, and he's probably right:) It could be another sign, fingers crossed:cool:

The way it is in teaching, if I conceive now it will cost me 3k more in lost pay than if I conceive in December.
I know we would give anything to conceive any time, but I really don't know which way is up at the moment!Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x0 -
3K in lost earnings is a bit of a blow, but you just need to buy a cheaper car/house/holiday next time to recoup:p
Hang on GFH, aren't you still too early to test?
Step away from the tests!
