    Not good today. Had to go to a colleagues funeral and just as I was leaving AF came too. It was a nice funeral, if there is such a thing. It was a humanist one so very personal but I feel emotionally drained and had to go back to work too.

    To add insult to injury I dropped my emergency tampon down the loo and had to use a higher absorbancy and I feel really uncomfortable.

    At least I can have a big drink when I get in.

    I just want to wish all you lovely ladies all the luck in the world in getting pregnant and having your little person.

    i had my son on 22/05/2012 after 2 miscarriages, a blighted ovum, endometreosis, scarred ovaries from cyst ruptures, severely abnormal cells removal from cervix (cin3) and an underactive thyroid. Miracles can happen :-)
    well today was a complete waste of make up :eek:

    Lowe is my surname now, Team Lowe was my username on a couple of wedding forums before the wedding as i found it amusing. i now worry constantly that someone i know will figure out who i am and umm....not even sure what sort of disaster that would be!
    DH would be embarassed if he saw how much i share, he's even said he's tried to find this thread but can't. but it's completely obvious, if you type 'f' in the address bar the 'marriage couples & family moneysaving' comes up and then it's not exactly a subtle title for this thread is it? men really can't find anything lol

    Tea Lover, i kinda hope it doesn't work like that as i have a slightly unusual name so i might be waiting aaaaages! lol then again there's likes thousands of Lowes in the world, so if it goes off last names too i'll be fine lol

    i love that i have this forum. no one i know is currently trying or thinking of, the people who have babies only tried for a short amount of time, so i'd have no one to talk to about this stuff

    my niece is beautiful and makes my heart fill with joy, but i do get very pining when i see her all cuddled up in her mummy's arms :o

    temp didn't rise this morning but duno if that's cos the thermometer is on low battery. but going off CM i definitely ovulated, dry as a bone now, so QQ please can i call it at 1DPO
    if it's not and i get EWCM again then i'll have to get DH on board again ;) but maybe this will make for a more relaxed TWW if i don't actually believe i'm in it lol
    and i've got 3 weeks til the gynae! 3 weeks!
    weight isn't going down but my clothes fit better so i'm just guna stick at what i'm doing cos it doesn't matter what my scales at home say, the gynae's scales are the final judgement :cool: they're awful too cos they're digital ones that calculate your BMI and then it's there in black and white. bleugh lol x x

    Last time i went to see the nutritionalist else id be living on dry noodles and chicken gravy which is why i have to have my weightt monitored as i got reall ill will attach a pic in a bit when i got toy lowest weight

    They were digital and i didnt want to look but they don't tell you otherwise as anorexia and body dismorphia is not a good mix so i was 74.5kg in the end whhich she was happy with. I see her in a few months time as i obsess over weight because at 7 1/2 my dad was telling me i was fat so ive still got that in my head

    Just portion size and cut down the calories to the rda it will all help but no obsessing allowed

    Following on from our posts earlier about random TTC phrases in work stuff I've just seen the following classic:

    "mating surfaces that are incorrectly connected can result in a loss of pre-load" :eek::rotfl:

    Now do I just have a filthy mind or does that sound dodgy to anyone else too?? :D
