    Errr, I didn't read much of it as I pretty much had a 3 month strop and didn't want to know! :o It does look like a very informative book though. :)
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    Birdie just had a look and I do have a slightly different version of the book. Very kind of you to offer.

    Oh great another pregnancy announcement from one of hubbys mates, he just popped over to tell me the good news - even better it was a happy accident and they weren't even trying....I'm happy for them, but the news has peed me off even more.

    Hi ladies

    Becca - love the cute little puppy!

    Twigpig - in respect of OPk's and temps etc - I do OPK's and have taken my temps over the last 10 months or so. What I dont understand is how you get a + on the OPK and your temp shifts but you have a blood test and progesterone is border line low (15)?

    Codemonkey - its good to rant!

    loulou - dont you just love those lucky people :o It does seem that there are lots of people out there who sneeze and bam theres a baby! Bad me, must be nice. It is hard, we are on nearing the 12 month mark and I know there are some who are past that mark too. Hugs.

    Partmouse - how are you today?

    claire - thats great news on your test results

    Right off for a business lunch. Back later xx

    Lou Very unfair isn't it, so many people end up with a happy accident baby and others try for a long time.

    Littleme im not to bad thanks, how are you? wish Fridays scan would hurry up.

    Just had my HSG and it was awful. They couldn't get the dye in to my tilted cervix, it just kept coming out. 5 times they injected the dye. They were trying for 40 minutes and it was so painful!

    So now I'm even more worried than before I went. Gah! I just want all this to be over.

    Thanks for all your dog advice..definitely going to be crate training him.

    Faith – hope you feel better soon. Google diagnosis is the worst - I think it really makes you feel worse about whatever your symptoms are so hopefully your GP will be able to put your mind at ease.

    Claire – I am trying to imagine someone ‘with backs that curve out and no bum as they're like straight up the back/bum part’ but it is conjuring some rather strange images.. :p

    Goldenpink and MsTTC – welcome, hope your stay is short and sweet!

    Becca :T Have you decided a name? We have 3 dogs and both work full time. Agree with the others to get a crate – we don’t keep ours in them at night (they come up to bed with us and if DH is nights they sleep on the bed with me) but they love their crates as their own ‘safe place’ as well as a fantastic training routine.

    My sympathies for your horrible hsg – when will you get the results?

    Ttc39 You are the good wife getting out of bed to make him tea!

    Hugs for code – its awful when such a massive part of your life is rubbish! We spend more awake time at work most of our lives than anywhere else so I really feel for you that your job is so stressful and awkward L

    AFM – Day 10 and not even a sniff of a high let alone a peak on cbfm :( – ff tells me I will ov on Sunday so will opk later and fingers crossed something will happen soon. Had to bd this morning as DH had tummy ache last night and is nights for a couple days now so more morning bd for us.

    Have plans to get rip roaringly drunk with the girls at the end of the month (AF due the weekend before) as BF (who I confide everything in) is convinced I will get my BFP if I make plans to do something really naughty – we will see! :beer:

    Was all set to head out the door to work then just randomly burst into tears. So I'm having to wait for the next train and my face to calm down from the huge blotchy mess it is now. Don't even know why I cried or am still crying except that work is such a horrible place to be atm and loads of people have gone off sick with stress. I should be getting moved to a different location at the end of the year and the maternity benefits are great which is why I've been hanging on.

    Oh no. Wish you could change jobs.

    So what happens, did they confirm at the appt your tubes are ok? sorry you had a bad time.

    Becca, that's great as that's one of the dogs I found in my research of non hair shedding ones! I wouldn't mind one of those one day. But I think were going to wait until weve had a baby so one of us is at home. Having said that DH pops home most days for lunch...
