    Evening Ladies,

    I hope you are all well!

    QQ, I do hope you've received some good news now from your parents, I hope they are on the way to recovery!

    Regarding names, DH and I have pretty much chosen the names we like best (keeping in mind family names and the associated expectations to use them) but won't be discussing with anyone. We plan to stay Team Yellow all the way until hoped for Sproglet arrives. Although we might get to the whole " ... and here is your son/daughter" and think "You look nothing like a Xxxxxx or a Xxxxxxx so we ahve to start again" :eek:

    Emsbet, you pee into a shot glass??!!!!???? Good grief you've got good aim!!! I'm using one of the glass Gu pots - DH did ask me why I had one hidden away in the bathroom :rotfl:


    BigZippy, Hope you're feeling on the up tomorrow!

    Nighty night girls, whilst AF is here I'm going to have a little drinky :beer:

    SBD and hugs all round!
    Icey x

    No PMA for me today:(

    My parents are in hospital right now:(
    Mum got dizzy in the middle of the night, so dad tried to move her somewhere, slipped and dad can't feel a thing below his neck.

    Kind of reminds me there are more important things in life then TTC.

    My sister didn't tell me right away because she thought it might affect my eggies, but my other sister thought I should know. My parents doesn't know I've been doing IVF.

    I can't go to them because I'm abroad. DH thinks I should go to them on Monday, but I don't think it's good for my eggies. It's a long flight:(

    QQ. I don't know what to say. So lots of hugs babes hope it goes well in the end.

    with regards to names I've got a couple picked out that I won't even share with OH. I'll wait until I'm in labour and he'll have to let me have them then (fingers crossed we'll get there) :D

    Good morning:wave:
    I'm 11DPO. If it is meant to be, then the bean should have stuck itself inside, if not then forgive and forget:o

    No update yet about my dad. My mum seems to be fine, was discharged the same day (may not have been admitted in the first place I don't know), but haven't heard about dad:(

    Clever:cool:
    We haven't thought of a single one:o
    I think it's a good idea to have a couple each, and choose when you actually see the face of the baby:)

    my friend did that and her little boy didn't have a name for nearly two weeks as they didn't think he "looked like" anything:D

    glad your mum's ok and hope no news is good news for your dad. Hope you've got a bean getting nice and comfy!

    oo morning all,

    QQ - I am so sorry to hear about your parents. I hope they get better boon and Pralines sends her fairydustgetwellsoonthing over the water. I hope the QQ family are all coping to the best of their ability at this time. And I know you want to be with your parents just now, but don't forget it is sometimes more beneficial if offspring can do a week or so back to back, so you get say 6 weeks of kids helping parents rather than 2 weeks with all kids. IYSWIM

    Preparation for TTC in the Praline household - NONE. Getting married was no relation to having children, no vits, ... and we even started having less sex for a while because BD'ing seemed to adult for us:rotfl:

    BigZippy re names - it is awful if someone take your name. [STRIKE]We[/STRIKE] I had a name stolen and we were not even trying. I was informed by The Husband that it wouldn't have been our name.We debate a lot about names as it goes. Totally different tastes, but if I have a bad labour - naming is MINE:D

    Shot glass - we have LOADS for some reason we got loads as moving in, wedding and got you thins from our holiday gifts. I've NEVER done shots.... but yes I use them in the same way as Emsbet as I can leave it in the bathroom and no one will question. Or they have't yet.

    I have wondered how I've ended up with 10 odd shot glasses though. What does that say about me!:rotfl:
