    aww hope your wee man is ok MrsV xx

    thanks QQ, knew i could count on you for the info. much appreciated :D and thats good news, i thought you were meant to wait 3 months before TTC after the jags so 4 weeks is fine!

    Laura there's nothing silly sounding about that at all hon. sometimes i feel the same way. you're a woman and its natural to want to make babies!! hopefully you will get ur wish v soon.

    also, a lot of women i know our age (i'm 31) have no kids and have done the career/living your life first/waiting thing. it seems pretty common of our generation.

    Lots of SBDTA

    He did notice. But he was just happy to get some action. My sex drive is so non existent most of the time!

    Good tip, will start that now and see if it'll work:cool:

    euro - I read your post so quickly, my mind translated 'NMA here today' to 'enima here today' :eek: Now if that doesn't make you laugh, I don't know what will!! :rotfl:
    QQ - good to see you back! I don't know anymore re: my ov day. I'd like to say I agree with you on CD 26 but, I'm so convinced AF is on it's way I'm more inclined to say CD17 or not at all! Sorry, I'm having a negative day :(
    mrsvicx ((hugs)) to your little one, hope he is ok!
    tinksy - spooky! I think you should take the advice though - relaxing is the best medicine for TTC apparently ;)

    Thanks for the bag of PMA QQ - As a result, I managed to laugh after reading euro's post, I've bought a bottle of Malibu for a few drinks with the in-laws tonight, I've had some chocolate, and I'm happy the sun is shining. :D I'm feeling better already ;)

    Still no AF though :huh:

    Glad you are feeling better:o
    CD17 is plausible as your temp dropped to 96.8F last time you ov'd.
    In which case you should be getting AF/beany around now:o

    I won't forget, and OH leaves tomorrow afternoon for his week in the UK. So, as I am not joining him until Wednesday, I will be able to take my temps before getting out of bed from Sun - Weds. :D I don't like to do it in front of OH as I think it might freak him out a bit! :rotfl:

    Oh, and I'm surprised my temp wasn't higher this morning as I was BOILING in bed! :rotfl:

    Sun was lovely, and I did a little shopping, but nothing terribly exciting. I bought a new Teflon saucepan, half price in the sale. Bargain! :money: And desparately needed, our existing one seems to have developed a rust spot at the bottom which is warping the metal. I bought that one as it was cheap, false economy though! Then found a health shop where everything was buy one, get the 2nd item half price. So, I found some multi vitamins for men, and some for women (with folic acid in). Another bargain :money: And finally some black shoe polish (to tidy up my work shoes), an English mag (OK!) and a McDonald's! Nom, nom, nom, nom.

    I had a look at some Samsonite suitcases (also in a sale), but wasn't entirely sure that was the one I wanted so I have left it for now and will go out again tomorrow and check out some other shops which also sell Samsonite suitcases. :D

    So, a little MSE retail therapy and some sunshine and I am feeling a bit more positive.

    HUGS to all who need them!

    Truth is my biological clock has been going at ninety for years, but I didn't want to do it alone. Meeting hubby took longer than expected then we wanted to buy a house, then we decided to get married and postpone ttc until after that, then my career and so on. It was getting to the stage where seeing babies felt like I was being stabbed in the heart. Then I came off the pill but we're still not really trying until I get some test results and now I worry that we left it too late. Does that sound stupid?
    Not stupid at all. I feel much the same. I've wanted one (or more ;)) every since dollies I guess, but wanted to do the married thing first. When I met DH his finances were terrible (£36k+debt and overspending every day never mind month) so it's taken time to sort all that out. Finally sold the house (he co-owned) and cleared off everything but the loan used for the car (necessity as I have mobility issues) at Christmas, so been "allowed" to try from then. I just wanted to be responsible... it's very hard to do when it's something you really want though. It was hard waiting to TTC, but not sure TTC is much easier ;)

    Ooooooh :j Good luck Penny!

    I've not been around much the last day or two. Been suffering witht he kidneys and all that. Doc said yesterday that he wouldn't bring on AF @ CD90 as previously thought, as it would artificially affect my hormone levels, which would then make the CD2-5 blood test for hormone levels redundant. Which makes logical sense, but it's frightening not to have an end point for this cycle :(

    Keeping quiet, so as not to bring your PMA down :o

    Good luck though ladies :)
