    Big hugs code monkey, it totally sucks when everyone who doesn't deserve babies gets them so easily and we struggle. I just try not to think about them tbh and try to remember that baby doesn't automatically equal a happy life so jealousy might be misplaced. It's hard to see it though when it's all we want x x

    Looks like a line Claire :-) congratulations!

    Best of luck for you tomorrow QQ, will be thinking of you and hoping everything goes as well as it possibly can.

    Teamlowe, sounds difficult with your sister, it must be confusing as a first time mum with everyone telling you what to do. Feeding on demand sounds good for a tiny baby though, hope your sister and baby are ok and you get to enjoy the show.

    Tink, wedding catering sounds brilliant - I want to do that!

    Nothing happening here, I'm SO impatient!

    QQ. We have - just once.
    Stranger things have happened, fingers crossed:)
    On the tempting fate thing , have booked a holiday for next march. DH says we can always cancel!
    Where would it be? I bet you are going to have to cancel:p

    Now I'd be happy with just one and its not happening which is unfair since certain women in my family seem to find it necessary to get pregnant every time they have sex.
    Our babies will be very much wanted and loved:cool:

    Sorry, congratulations Claire!! Hope you have a happy pregnancy with limited morning sickness.

    oxclairexo, get a digi!:j

    Sorry no digi - village chemist is closed and 15 miles to the supermarket. Have done another IC though and it's still faint but def a line so I'm tentatively saying BFP :D:j

    A bit shocked tbh - this was our first month of trying and only managed to BD once. We have therefore been exceptionally lucky to catch. I know people have had mixed results with CBFM but for us it has def helped us time BD well - I have only used it 2 cycles and got a BFP both times :)

    Better go and tell DH (although slightly tempted to wait till fathers day). He's going to think he's some kind of super stud.:rotfl:

    Will have everything crossed for u tomorrow QQ.

    TeamLowe - eeek. That isn't the way I would do it with a term newborn, let alone a premmie. They only have little tummy's! Ah well, each to their own eh? Perhaps if babygirl has to go back into hospital they may be able to pursuade your sister otherwise.

    CodeMonkey - i TOTALLY get where you are coming from. I don't have family like that, but i do know a girl who is 22 and will be having number 4 in September. Lives on benefits, complains non-stop about the NHS...you get the picture. Problem is she doesn't have 2 brain cells to rub together and is breeding more of the same ilk. Her oldest is 7 and will no doubt be pregnant as young as her mum was. A bit Daily Mail like i know, but that is the sort of person I resent my taxes going to support.

    A 'friend' of mine on facebook just posted a picture of her new pram - a quinny buzz. Now I know she doesn't work either and is going to be a single parent. Where is she getting the money from?!?

    Congrats oxclaire! I had a feeling this was gonna be a bumper month - all that summer lovin', lol. Im tempted to get the CBFM too, am going to see how I get on with the CB digi OPKs, but glad it worked for you!

    Thanks for conceive plus advise, I wish Id got the prefilled tubes now but im gonna get a syringe from the chemist ready for next wed - sun!

    Just a wee moan - dont you hate it when your body acts pregnant! Just finished my period on Thu, but was feeling so potentially pregnant I went and did an IC test - resounding negative!

    Ive been feeling really nauseous and retching the last 2 days and I can smell everything which is really unlike me (my sense of smell is appalling!). Also, food tastes a bit funny, and I thought my tea tasted dusty/metally earlier on. My mind and body ob want to be pregnant!

    I think it must be really mild food poisoning, I probably just ate something a little off. Hey ho!

    Hope your all having a relaxing sun, just had a killer exercise session with DH and am laid up in bed now, will take me several hours to get over it so am going to surf the johnlewis website and look at kitchenaids and afternoon tea china! sigh xx

    Heh, Claire, don't be silly or feel bad for making your announcement I am actually happy for you. its good to have BFPs on here. sorry if i brought down your news with my monthly rant.

    Lily-may, its a similar situation kind of. Different kids, different fathers, a babysitter for every night. Everything is always such a drama and its all very Jeremy Kyle.
