    Thanks Musogirl and Dingdong :)

    Slowlyfading - it's not over yet (that's what i keep telling myself anyway!)

    I also worry a bit about how I'll cope with a new born and DS but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it :D

    How old is DS? Yea im scared about 2 for sure. *Shudder*

    Being pregnant was ok. Once I got over 12 weeks. They were !!!!!!!g hard dunno how im going to do that with little lady I was asleep by 830pm :rotfl:
    And the PGP was rough for me right to the end. And the sleepless nights in pregnancy :rotfl:

    But oh the cute bundle of joy at the end and watching them grow. Every mile stone you turn into a blubbering wreck at this gorgeous creation you have made ... Awww can't wait :D

    So glad I'm not the only one!

    I'm even worrying about maternity leave....the end of it!

    That I couldn't do! I gave up work to be a stay at home mummy.
    Oh and you are yet to enter the world of whatever parenting decision you make ... You will be wrong!!!:eek: You think religion is a mind field you've met nothing yet ...

    Hey all! AF is due on Sunday and I got a cold today.. Bleh! Had 2 cups of tea (whoops) to cheer me up!

    Definitely think me and OH are out this month, been craving a bit of chocolate and cuddling! At least I'll be able to enjoy a Halloween tipple!!!

    Congrats to those who got BFP!! :)

    Is there another version of the the sperm that meets the egg? I only have the podcasts

    Just popping in to say that I used IC OPK while TTC, and my test line was never as dark as the control line. Ended up buying one pack of Clearblue tests (the ones with the smiley faces), and would just use one Clearblue a month to confirm OV on the day I got my darkest IC.

    HTH and wishing you all lots of luck and baby dust x

    Do you do charting and temperature taking too? If not might be a good idea to take this up for a few months so you can see roughly when your days are?

    I chart at fertility friend if anyone else is over there and wants to add me :)

    It's nearly cd14, you may as well. Plus we could all do with another little boost when it's a BFP.

    Welcome newcomers, hope everyone's stay is short.
    re SMEP - it is certainly a slog and quite a lot of effort. I'm motivated by wanting to get a BFP ASAP and not willing to leave anything to chance. If science can help me then I'll use it! Day 3 of bding in a row before a day break and I'll be pleased to have a rest. It's really day 4 as we messed up the days before. Plus I'm tired. Moan moan moan.
    For whoever has the podcasts(sorry your name escapes me!) it's also available as a free ebook on iBooks or kindle.

    I fell pregnant on SMEP. I was also using preseed so I dont know if it was that or the SMEP. We had sex on day 10 12 and 14. I oved on 14.

    If AF comes this week I think I will look at Smep for next cycle. So much for OHs self professed super sperm!

    I felt some "shifting" earlier which felt like the start of AF - luckily not

    Yummy Indian takeaway on the way :)
