    ah, youre right there, it didnt make me put one in!! :p
    i guess you'd need to do one near/at the end of the trial anyway to send off to cb?

    actually, that reminds me, might pop down to the post office now to post it all off.

    Yeah I'm not sure, unless I can get away with just starting a new cycle? I better read the trial instructions!

    Tea- that sounds so irritating! 12 weeks that's gone so fast.

    Thanks ladies. Bizarrely, I'm not too worried about not managing financially, because I know we will - I've survived on a lot less. I'm worried about having to stop ttc. It's taken so long already, I can't imagine having to take a break, but at the same time, I don't want to be in a position where we can't afford nappies for the baby or to put the heating on when it's cold.

    I'm also quite angry on DH's behalf. Last year they were nominated for Team of the Year and DH has been nominated for an individual award too and they're still getting rid of them??

    Hmm dilemma. If you got pregnant there is nothing to say that in those 9 months your DH won't find a great job & you'll be fine. But yeah.., I guess if he couldn't find a job then carrying on would be pretty tricky. Unless you maybe work out a plan where if he didn't find employment then you'd have to go back to work early & he'd have to do the child care?

    I guess we'll have to wait for the meeting tomorrow. Keep your fingers crossed that they offer him a different position.

    hugs to everyone in the wine and chocolate zone, it sucks in there, i think we need something stronger than wine.... gin should do it !! And the chocolate needs an upgrade too, i want christmas selection boxes not just a bar of cadbury's !! :p

    Gin is always the answer, whatever the question :rotfl:
    Obviously not if you're pregnant, but have no hope of that happening here so until then...
    Gin, gin, gin, gin, chocolate, gin

    Code - Sorry about the bad news Code. Hopefully they offer your OH another role tomorrow.

    Welcome Newbies :wave:

    Sorry to CD1s - July is going to be a great month....I hope!

    I've just seen on Facebook that a 'friend' has announced her pregnancy. She lost a baby in the early stages a while ago which was awful but has fell again real quick. She's now had 2 pregnancys in the time that I have been trying for 1 and it will be her 7th child at 28 with a fella she's known 6 months. I think I must have been forgotten about when it comes to babies! :p

    Hello ladies, room for one more? :D

    I was on here for a grand total of 2 weeks last year before shamelessly jumping the queue and getting up the duff immediately. Sadly it was ectopic and though the plan was to try again asap I've been a bit lazy about it.

    This month was the first I've been organised with opks and BDing more than just once or twice so I have high hopes - which is silly really since I am now a fallopian tube short, but fingers crossed. I am 3 DPO at the moment I think, and happy to go on the famous list.

    Oh and CD16

    :rotfl: lol!

    Code - that sucks about your OH. Really hope it's good news tomorrow.

    Why does work have to get in the way and mess up TTC plans?! I've had similar (my team will be disbanded in 12 months time and we'll be relocated). I'm now feeling super pressurised to get preggers before then as I feel like I've "earnt" my maternity package. Then I stop and think about how wonderful it will be to be a mummy and the money/financial side seems so much less important :o. As long as I can afford to clothe and feed my family then I guess that will be all that matters.

    CD2 so had a sneaky glass of vino with my dinner :)

    Hello JoJo :wave:
