    Big hugs becca. I still feel very positive for you that it will happen in the next month or two although I know you don't feel like that right now xx

    Code he looks so happy /mischievous/ cute all at the same time. Perfect!

    Had ewcm twice today which made me go from wanting to burst into tears (which I did do last night) to be extremely happy although I am slightly scared as last month I got AF a few days later... Opk still very pale but I've had that before & got a stronger line the next day so in just hoping that's the case again. My temp is low which is a good sign, but we'll see. If anything at least in in a better mood than this morning. I just hate how my moods are so controlled by ttc.

    He has a name but we don't like it and neither do the kennel staff so we're trying to come up with a new one.

    Any ideas for good names are welcome. Sadly DH rejected my suggestion of Peter Barker!

    Hugs for everyone feeling it at this time. Nobody tells you how hard this journey is, especially when it seems everyone else gets there so quickly. We will get there though.

    Personally I feel like the rest of my families have been equipped with Ferraris, my best friend got a Bugatti Veyron, and I have a Penny Farthing with a puncture.

    Hi to everyone - I am feeling slightly guilty that I am blessed with 2 gorgeous children and wanting a 3rd while some of you are struggling for a first :( All I can say is that it is completely worth the obsessing and heartache when you are holding your baby. I wish ttc was an easier process for all. X

    See, I'm of the opinion that the need for a baby is just as valid if it's your first or your 10th. It still hurts just as much.

    I agree Code and have had my own troubles along the way. Still have a longing to have another and to 'complete' my family. Scares me that I may not be able to...

    Code you crack me up!

    Ugh I used to really want 3 kids now I'm thinking 2 as frankly 1 right now would seem like a miracle. I would love to have 3 though but just can't see it happening.

    Hugs Becca :( Things will seem brighter soon I'm sure of it!

    Good luck with naming Code - we have so many animals we had to stop giving them 'people' names lest we use up all the names we really like on our furbabies!! (We have 3 dogs, 3 cats, 2 hamsters, 2 ferrets, dozen chickens and a goat...) lol xx

    Code - Soooooo cute! I love my fur babies. Had some lovely cuddles with an 9 week old puppy yesterday too :) Naming them is so hard tho! Tasha - I know what you mean, one of my rescue cats has a beautiful name that I would have loved to have given to a baby. It would sound so good with our surname too. In fact, we've even talked about whether it would be too weird of us if we did still use the name (conclusion was yes!)

    Becca Hope you're ok. Sending you hugs. I'm also happy to help with the lists if you want a break (providing my old computer still works, as I'm on my tablet and can't copy and paste)

    I've been AWOL this week as I've had the week from hell at work. I very nearly walked out but luckily I didn't as that would have been very stupid of me. I have applied for some new jobs tho... I've been hanging in for my mat leave (cos it's an amazing package) but I decided its just not worth it. Tbh, I've been so stressed with it this week that I'm sure I couldn't possibly conceive with this much stress. :(

    Had my first blood tests at the docs this week and find out next week if they're ok. Hubby has SA next week too hopefully. Doctor said really I need a HSG cos of my medical history but they can't do that until they eliminate everything else.

    Hugs for everyone and hope to see some BFPs soon! X
