    Love the birdies and owls bunting Tink! Funnily I've decided that I'm having this decal (or one like it, there are so many cute designs to choose from!) for my nursery and that bunting would go with it perfectly! We've decided that we won't find out the sex of our baby so I've had to rethink my original decor plans to pick something unisex (that isn't beige and brown-blegh!) that can be pinked/blued-up once the baby arrives and I'm currently leaning towards rainbow colours and cutesy owls. :)

    All I need now is a baby on the way so I can get decorating! :o

    Please tell me I'm not the only loon who has things like this planned out?!

    Congratulations abis, hoping everything goes well for you this time. Stay positive and look after yourself xx

    Claire I've had the same email from clearblue....
  • I definitely don't have a secret 'baby' board on pinterest where I put all the precious things that I covet...

    Morning ladies.

    I did another superdrug test this morning and the line is maybe a smidgy bit darker but not much. Did a load of googling last night about it all, and it does say you shouldn't use the line darkening as a measure of HCG increasing. Theres as many stories of it being an early miscarriage as there are that everything turned out ok. I did a digi this morning too and that said pregnant 1-2 so something has obviously risen in the last 3 days as it said not pregnant 3 days ago.

    Sorry if I've upset anyone :o Its just so much more scary this time round. The line didn't darken last month either and I was only pregnant for 6 days before it was all over :( I am worried it will happen again, but I appreciate here isn't the place for my worries :o

    Goodvibes - sounds like it all went well :cool:

    Becca - Good luck for the scan :cool:

    Loulou - Fingers crossed if you decide to test.

    Code, TCD, Emylou, Squirrel - Hugs to all of you. :grouphug:

    Eeek try and *dreaded word* relax!! I'm sure a few of us here totally understand how you're feeling!
    Got everything crossed for you :j

    Slight update for myself.... OH decide to inform me yesterday that he's not sure if he's ready to continue TTC at the minute. His reason being " I saw how totally devastated you were last month (MC) and i'm not sure i can take seeing you like that again as well as hurting for myself i hurt for you"
    As much as the sentiment is lovely and caring, i was a little taken aback. It's not often that OH talks about his feelings and shares so i can only think that he feels quite strongly about this and he's obviously been mulling it over.
    I'm pretty gutted TBH, i asked how long 'at the minute' will be but he just shrugged. After some discussion we've agreed on NTBNP :(

  • Huge congratulations Abis! Look after yourself, hope all goes well this time xx

    Hugs to everyone who needs them xx

    AFM CD29 and 8DPO. On a 27 day cycle normally. Have decided that if I did OV at CD21 latest then a test won't show up until 10DPO at the very earliest (Friday).

    Becca - can you put me on the testing list for 17th March when you get chance? Thank you for doing the lists x

    Thanks Vic3 - he thinks the interview went well, but he has got a second interview on Thursday (bit of a gutter as we thought it would just be one interview), so will prob know by Friday.
    Everything crossed.
    I told him last night that I was (in theory) late, but not to get his hopes up. He said, I'm not - at the moment I am unemployed LOL!!

    LOL TCD I have a secret baby board too! :o

    Big hugs McRach. We tend to forget that TTC struggles and losses take a toll on our OHs too. Maybe it is a good idea to NTNP for a while; at the end of the day you're still TTC but from your OH's point of view there's less stress which is a good thing. :)

  • Hugs McRach, and bless your OH. Sometimes we get so obsessed about it we forget that there are two of us in this! Sounds like NTNP is best for the moment, glad you agreed on that. He can't say when he will feel better about the whole thing, but at least he doesn't want to stop altogether.
