That's the thing though - they don't turn into a 7 or 10 year old overnight. You can adapt to the changes gradually

I trully hope so:rotfl:. Otherwise I'm doomed:D.

That's fine COMP, but I was wondering about perhaps having a list of abbreviations and some links to sites such as fertility friend so people can track their cycles and find useful info etc. What do you think?

Oh, and FYI, I may be offline all weekend as personal laptop has broke and t'internet on phone is playing silly b'ggers!

Done

I'm not going to sign up to FF just yet (no point really!) but will do once the implant's out, just so I can see what is 'normal' for my body.

I've found it's been very good for me to start recognising symptoms of AF. This month, despite FF saying I was only 4 dpo, I was pretty sure that AF was about to show up from the symptoms I had and I was right.

Do you haveto pay to use FF? If so how much is it?

I bought an app for my iphone yesterday that mimi recommended so I might just use that if FF is expensive.

No, FF is free. And, for the first month you can often get the VIP membership for free (they often run offers). I did opt to buy a year's membership in the end as it wasn't expensive (about 30-40 quid I think) and I prefer the layout of the VIP stuff.

Here is a link to mine, so you can see what it looks like:

Thanks a lot I will have a look into it at the weekend.

Hi ladies. what a shame that you guys and some other lovely ladies felt you had to leave the TTC thread

Guess i am WTTC atm so thought i would say hello. still reckon everyone should come back to the main thread though.

If people think this thread is pointless, I am happy to let it die off. I will not, however, post on the main thread. I know the majority of posters are happy for us to be there but the minority are VERY vocal about their opinions and I personally am trying to be sensitive to everyone's feelings. A couple of posters have said on numerous occasions that they will no longer be posting, yet they come back to swipe at those who are WTTTC. I for one don't want to have to tread on eggshells.

Financially (and this is MSE after all) the needs of those who are waiting (e.g. to clear debts etc) are different to those of those who are actively trying which is why (from a moneysaving point of view) I think we probably are better off separate.

Note that the main thread seems to have calmed now

Hi can I join you?

I'm in a slightly different situation as we are trying to decide when to TTC number three. I'm massively broody but we just aren't ready to cope with another child. I have DD1 who is 4 and will go to school in sept and DD2 who is 2 next week and I really feel my babies have grown up. We don't have any debt (apart from student loans) but we don't have any money either so it makes sense to wait. I also have a strong preference for a boy after 2 girls and feel I need to get over that before we try - after all I don't get any say in what flavour it is!

Having already had 2 I hope I can help you ladies with any pregnancy/birth queries. I've had 2 home births and highly recommend them especially in water - that's heaven!
