    Big hugs LouLou! People just don't think before opening their mouths do they!! xxx

    Code - LOVE your internal monologue way of dealing with this! I'll have to try that next time!

    Kynthia very jealous of you seeing muse last night! Hope you had an awesome time! I was stuck on a coach back from twickenham as we went to watch the rugby final. I'm not really into sports, but I do like watching rugby....not quite sure why ;)

    Atton - big hugs as it sounds like you've been having a tough time lately xxx

    Becca - really glad to hear that you had a positive appt. fingers crossed that this next stage works for you xx

    Anyone got anything nice planned for tomorrow? I'm looking for inspiration as not sure what we're doing yet. If the weather is nice again then we may go for a country walk and pub lunch :)

    Thanks for all the kind words.

    I've actually said blunt comments before - a work colleague asked me why I didn't want kids so I replied "actually we want a child more then anything, but are struggling to conceive and its looking like it won't happen for us." They shut up at that point and have never mentioned it again!

    Think its a bit harder when its hubbys family, as I don't want to be rude and hubby doesn't want them all knowing our "private" business.

    Hugs Loulou. I've used the "I hate children" excuse which seems to put an end to the questioning quite quickly, but I might try the "actually we've been trying for ages and nothing is happening and it's terribly upsetting and I'm finding it really hard to cope" thing next time just to see how the nosy person reacts to it. If they're going to make me feel like !!!! well why on earth shouldn't I make them feel like !!!! right back?

    Anyway. A tentative 1 DPO please. Thanks to whoever it was that told me you automatically get two peak days followed by a high on the CBFM (sorry I'm on the ipad and can't look back to see who it was).

    So it seems that my blood test for 7 dpo should be on a Saturday which obviously isn't going to happen. Should I just do it on the following Monday which would be 9 dpo?

    See when you get your temperature spike before deciding as according to FF I don't always actually ovulate the day of the second peak reading. Then once you know which day you ovulated you pick the nearest working day to have your blood test, Friday if the day falls on a Saturday and Monday if the day falls on a Sunday.

    Catloverbex - thanks, I had a great time. They played for over 2 hours straight! Even though the club level was nice, I thought the Emirates was too big and a bit cold. I much prefer the O2 as a venue as it feels more intimate with better sound due to it being designed as a music venue.
    Don't listen to me, I'm no expert!

    I feel bad putting this when people are feeling down but I've waited 20 long hard months for it...

    It feels really surreal- I thought I would be !!!! scared of another miscarriage but I'm being more 'what will be will be' although that's probably coz I know my sister and cousins miscarried their first but had no subsequent problems so I'm optimistic its a family trait lol

    I feel sick but that may be from the BBQ last night. No real symptoms other than kajungas are sore and lower belly feels tender and a bit crampy.

    nothing different done this month but i believe the inositol has played a huge part. Either that or i have frugal ovaries who refused to release a good egg until id bought a house lol x
