    Ooh a wedding bean would be lovely!! :j

    I'm also eating enough for 4. I have no excuse - I'm just a greedy pig and v bored at work today. :o AF has finally left the building so it's back on with another attempt. Not that I'm expecting ov for at least a month yet but a bit of BD practice won't hurt :D

    FS appt is on Tuesday and I'm getting so worried already. V silly, as I don't even know what I'm worried out.

    Welcome becca0417 :wave: Hope your stay with us will be short and sweet! As QQ says, TTC is the most exciting and frustrating thing in the world...

    welcome to becca, please tell me about your wedding as i am incredibly nosey :) in fact everyone, tell me about your wedding/wedding plans/potential future wedding!

    as for mine- shockingly fantastic weather for late april, 4 ceremony at a local hotel, buffet tea and all very casual. purple colour theme, lots of time spent on the terrace chatting with everyone, didn't do first dance til like half nine cos we couldn't get everyone back inside! i just remember it being the best party of my life :)
    managed to BD even though exhausted and DH couldn't keep rythem cos the bed was too soft. always thought i'd be pg on my wedding day and i was, found out about two weeks later about my angel :)

    normally i'd be fine with an excuse for increased appetite but i was meant to be hitting the wagon with avengence these two weeks before the gynae appointment but with husband wanting to stress eat at home and a colleague at work bringing in treats whilst he carb loads for a marathon, *and* my ipod being broke the last two tiems i've attempted the gym, maybe i should admit defeat and hammer the diet next week rofl

    also ALSO, after thinking about my next anniversary in a vague way (ie i wonder if we'll have a baby by then, the most important question about any event in my life right now lol) and i have an inexplicable feeling that i'll be six months pregnant then, which is in a way quite relaxing, although that is another six months of trying! lol

    turns out am not ovulating
    Did you have your test at 7DPO?
    It could be a one off, as we all have anovulatory cycle from time to time.
    Hope they'll start you off with ov medication (clomid) and get you pg as soon as possible:)

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Thank you for the warm welcome! I'm 25 (mistyped that as 15 then!) and as it says getting married on 2nd June which is 5 weeks 3 days away. I stopped taking my pill at the weekend and have yet to have my period which is normal, should be here tomorrow. I've ordered some ov sticks and cheap pregnancy tests (haha I'm hoping).

    Anything else I should be doing?

    TeamLowe, I'm incredibly nosey too! Your wedding sounds lovely and just how I would love my day to be, very relaxed. We are having a church wedding at 1pm then a reception in a local hotel, all very relaxed, very us. Purple colour scheme - 4 bridesmaids (nearly 3 after the last few weeks!). Just looking forward to a lovely day with our friends and family... oh and H2B of course ;)
    First baby due 3/3/14 - Team Yellow! Our little girl born 25/2/14 :D

    Well, since you asked...;)

    We got married last February in the Dominican, with close 15 friends and family. It had been a bit rainy for the days leading up to it so I was getting nervous that it'd be a washout but after a small shower in the morning it was glorious all day and so hot. The ceremony was at 4 and we went along to one of the beachside bars after the photos, for some reason there was a band playing and waiters were going round handing out cava and canapes, we acted like it was our doing and enjoyed our little drinks reception! ;) When we were flying out we got 10 bottles of champagne in duty free (the joys of flying in a big group, we could buy loads of booze!) so we had a champagne and steak dinner which we'd have never been able to afford back at home! We hired a DJ and danced for a few hours, we even got glow sticks and went out for a poolside rave! :cool: Oh and OH nearly punched the photographer as he was quite pushy and annoying and kept trying to make us do really cheesy poses that we really didn't want to do, when he tried to make OH get down on his knees and look into my eyes (barf) we told him that his work was done and he could go! :rotfl: OH is always telling me how it was the best day of his life, that no wedding will ever top it and he can't imagine any bride wearing a dress as beautiful as mine... bless him! :smileyhea

    Gosh, how weird if that that actually happens! I hope you have a mummy tummy on your next anniversary because you've just given birth! :D

    I've stopped thinking about whether or not we'll have a baby or bump at certain events coming up, too upsetting when it happens and we're no closer to having our baby!:o

    Speaking of anniversaries and always thinking how pg you'll be at certain times.... it's a year today since we moved into our new home (is it still new lol?)

    I can't believe I'm not pg yet. I thought we'd have a baby by now.

    This time next year there'd better be one (or two!) or I will be really cross with life!
