    Oh no BZ, Hugs (()))

    And hugs for Tinks as well.
    Just read the article about Ben Richards, I can't believe they had 4 stillborns:(. It's so sad and now the cancer, life is really not fair.

    BTW, has anyone watched yesterday the program about the couple on BBC2? Can't remember the title but it was about a couple who were followed by social services and were accessed whether they could keep the baby or not. I cried and cried, the baby was so beautiful and I really thought it will have a happy ending, keeping the baby but of course human nature is unpredictable. Just glad that they removed baby and he is safe!

    "Protecting our Children" I have just watched it on iplayer-it is a 3 part series, last night was the 2nd one. I work in child protection and am doing a health and social care degree, so I found it really interesting. I was swinging between tears and anger throughout it, very sad, but all too common.

    Hope you're okay BZ, what a stressful time you're having

    Hugs tink, sorry you're having a hard time just now

    Hope everyone is well, I'm gearing up to ov and lots of BDing over the next few days-for some reason I just can't get enough just now ;)

    I work with children too (though not child protection) and doing a Childhood degree, so it was kind of relevant. I nearly got a heart attack when they said that Marva took an overdose while pregnant,it made me think how disturbed her life could have been. I felt so bad for that tiny baby, glat he is going to be adopted.

    Big hugs to tinkwings and BZ :grouphug: Hope you are both taking care of yourselves x

    Cat is a million times better now - yippee!! :j But the car is possibly more poorly than first imagined (and the first imagined bit was bad enough :eek:) Will know more tomorrow hopefully. Silly cars and silly money!! Tis a bit worrying from the money side of things - but theres not a lot we can do about it. At least with it being my brother I know he won't rip us off or do anything un-necessary etc. Just a shame we have to pay :rotfl:

    I was v good at the weekend tho and got lots of things listed on ebay. Most end tomorrow night and I am making nearly £50 on them already. Every little helps towards the vets & car bills, lol!!

    Bought some asda tests today. Not sure why I think they will have a different response to the IC's - but no sign of AF either so there is hope :o

    Had a lovely nap this afternoon while DH looked after DD. Think all the stresses took their toll on me - and I don't think I have been sleeping well. When I woke up, DD had drawn me loads and loads of lovely pictures. I had to guess what they were and shes getting so much better at drawing now cos I think I guessed 75% without any clues and there was only one which I really struggled on (which was slinky out of toy story so it was quite a hard one, lol!!) Will have to choose which ones to put up. :D

    TTC # 2 since Oct 2011 - good things come to those who wait :o

    :dance: 2013 is going to be our lucky year :dance:
  • I'm shattered so off to bed (to sleep :D) can you change me to 3dpo and testing on 14th Feb ( I know it's early but what the heck)

    Huge hugs to all who need them. Tink and BigZee spring to mind but I'm sure there are others.

    Birdie - on the wedding, if she really won't budge on the no babies thing, then if it were me I'd miss it. I didn;t leave my DD with anyone else for even a few hours until she was much older than 6 months, and only left her overnight recently (she's 2 1/2) with OH. I had no children at my wedding cos there were 65 of them! But we had babes in arms, because even then I understood you cannot separate a little baby from its Mummy, especially when breastfeeding.

    As for me, I see on QQ's list I am 8dpo and it's frankly a mircale that I didn't know that, am not SSing, and am not counting down to testing! Either I'm relaxed or so fed up of TTC that I no longer care. Either way, its nice not to be stressing!

    Hugs to Tinks and BigZippy.


    Abis - lol at the slinky. I can't wait til my DD starts drawing pictures :-)

    Managed a BD last night and I think I ov'd yesterday or today. I'm looking forward to going on the testing list for next cycle.

    Hi QQ, can you mark me down as 0 dpo today please? Think it's today if my sticks are anything to go by. Quite nervous though as I normally feel at least some pre Ov pain and there is nothing. Same happened when I thought I had ov'd last time but didn't!
    Trying not to worry but I think this particular 2ww will be a hard one... hoping to have a busy couple of weeks to take my mind off it! X x
