    In my continuing quest to buy or arrange things that would be inappropriate for a pregnant lady/mum with young baby, I've added to the list of stupid stuff that so far includes buying a three door car and booking a holiday to Rome.

    I've only gone and signed myself up for a half marathon next March...

    What on earth was I thinking?

    Fingers crossed you won't be able to do it cos you'll be preggers! X

    I'm also booking and arranging stupid stuff as got sick of putting my life on hold. Off to vegas for a blowout 30th celebration in sept and today we decided to go to Thailand for new year :) we have friends living there so will only have to buy flights....just want to have things to look forward to as I find it hard not to let the TTC struggle overwhelm me :o

    Part Mouse - sorry you feel poorly. What does duphaston do again? X

    So....went to the gym this morning and used their body fat/BMI machine. Last time I used it was June and since then I have done loads of exercise and eaten well and really felt trimmer (and hubby agreed!) but I've lost 1 pound... And 0.5% body fat!!! 1 pound for all that hard work! BMI is still "overweight" :( Gonna hit the exercise a bit harder from now on!

    That it's a bloody brilliant idea to have a goal that isn't ttc related :rotfl::rotfl:

    Having dieted and been good all week, and having lost 8lbs last week, this week I've lost a total of 0lbs. Nothing. I've eaten salad, had no chocolate (and I was in the wine and chocolate zone) counted everything that went in my mouth (phnaar phnaar), and done loads of exercise, its quite disappointing.

    Also, still feeling a bit sorry for myself for no reason.

    So here is my list of fabulous things I can do:

    1. Sleep late (even if that involves letting the dog up for cuddles)
    2. Not pay over £1k per month for childcare
    3. Don't have to do that weird attachment parenting thing that's so popular at the moment, where you're considered a bad parent if you put your baby down ever and a terrible person if you make your baby sleep in a cot.
    4. Can watch tv that isn't Cbeebies
    5. If I'm coming home from work tired and stressed, I can nap on the couch without worrying about dealing with an irritable toddler.
    6. Go to Dubrovnik in 3 weeks without worrying about morning sickness, or dealing with a baby.
    7. Eat a meal in peace. (well, except for the dog who tried to steal one of the meatballs from my plate earlier)
    8. Take non-kid friendly holidays outside of the summer holidays
    9. Sneeze, cough or jump without peeing myself
    10. Have a long shower in peace.

    ttc39 - so sorry to hear about the miscarriage. Life is so unfair. Look after yourself and join us again when you're ready.

    Morning everyone.

    Feeling pretty tired this morning. Was 'awake' until just before midnight and then was awake this morning at 6am. It is going to be a LONG day lol. I need sleep.

    Code - I have another thing you can do to add to your list.

    - BD at anytime as you do not have to worry about a child walking in at anytime. Can even BD in the day time. Shock!

    Hope you all have a good day, hugs to all that need them. :)

    Morning all :)

    CD3 here.
  • Hi all morning,

    Hugs to ttc39 so sorry about your news. Take care of yourself.

    ATM - can I be updated to 0 dpo please.

    Only BD twice this month dont think will have much chance. lost interest in BD as the reports showed that I may not be ovulating, now waiting for AF to arrive to get the various tests booked and completed for the FS appointment in October.
    Saving goal for BTL mortgage - 28600 / 60000 ( July 2021) , 37600/60000 (December 2021) , 39300 / 60000 (august 2022) , 41000/60000 ( January 2023)
