Ooo, thanks T2D :beer::beer::beer:
Its very hard when you get behind with it - sorryIf I did it every day it doesn't take so much doing.
Can I join the crazy corner too please? Have hidden the pregnant people on facebook. How very mature of meHow can >everyone< be pregnant apart from me tho?? So not fair.
Lol, I agree MV - I would be feel so much nicer about it all if I could be upduffed too. I would be positively happy for them all :rotfl: I bloomin hate being jealous!! Such a horrid emotion
Know what you mean abis. My Facebook feed is full of scan photos or pregnancy related posts, each one shouting "hahaha. Look at me. I'm dripping with fertility and you're not. Nothing here for you, move along you barren old crone." Last thing I needed was nail lady going on about her pregnancy and quizzing me about when we're going to try. Couldn't exactly say "erm sweetheart we've been at this for years and haven't had so much as a positive pregnancy test".Eu não sou uma tartaruga. Eu sou um codigopombo.0 -
OK - hopefully that is right. Let me know if I need to change anything.
I made a few notes as I went, but can't remember who asked what! But someone asked about acupuncture. I'm doing it at the moment, and the lady is lovely. I mentioned before that I think there is an element of CBT as part of the process. She is always positive about everything, and happily discusses when, never IF, we get pregnant. It's nice.
I can't tell you if the treatment is effective (yet), but she said that in Canada if you are getting IVF you have to do acupuncture as it improves success rates so much. She also does cupping (which is weird, but quick) and has given me tablets and teas. I'm going to stop the teas etc for the moment as we are not allowed to BD (due to the biopsy) and won't be able to for a month, so its a bit of a waste of money.
It feels like it's doing something. I am not into alternative medicine at all, so I'm not inclined to believe in it too much, but I do somehow feel that my body feels more.. well.. right.. hard to explain. It's such a huge part of medicine in China, and my doctor spent 4 years qualifying in China, so there must be something to it.0 -
Thanks for the lists T2D. I've just scared myself silly after googling late ovulation and short luteal phase
Lesson learnt.

I didn't say congratulations. That'll teach them for being fertile!:o
Oh god, I am getting so pathetic

Thanks from me too on the list T2D x :beer:
I am jealous of other people's pregnancies, however I remember someone saying on this thread once that they were jealous, but actually didn't want anybody else's baby..they were just jealous that they were pregnant.
Hmm..I'm not making much sense here..tum te tum...what do I mean...I mean, what I try to do, is when I feel all upset and jealous that someone else is up-duffed, I just think 'but they are preg with their baby..and I don't want their baby...I want my own'..and somehow that makes it a teeny bit easier....
Does anyone get what I am waffling on about or should I just get my coat....?

I'd offer you wine or chocolate Becca, but I can't have any so neither can you
Don't think the diet is helping with my moods to be fair. Or maybe I am just having to deal with the sad emotions myself rather than drinking a bottle of wine or finishing a packet of biscuitsor both
Grrrr, why is it so hard work?!Married my lobster in July 2011

MV - I get ya. But right now I'd settle for stealing someone elses baby. I even considered buying one of those reborn doll things so I can have something to cuddle and look after and take out in a pram.
I know - I think I've gone OTT in the craziness stakes... Now, don't back away from me in the crazy corner and join a less crazy than Abi corner:o

can I make a confession? I don't even like newborn babies. They're boring! I like them from about 9 months and then stop liking them again when they're about 10.
goes off to join the desperate to have a baby even if I don't even like them and thus crazier than abis corner.Eu não sou uma tartaruga. Eu sou um codigopombo.0
