Congratulations Chickpea, have you been told to take anything new to give this bean the best chance? I heard some ladies took low dose aspirin. But you should check with your doctor first.

Oops, I seem to have missed Chickpea's BFP. Tentative congratulations and many, many sticky bean vibes.

Mmmm phish food not had that in years.

*chucks code plenty of aero* men honestly !!!!!!.

Isla the pressure is soo hard. My dh is an only child and my brother will never have kids.

Oh man that is terrible pressure. It's the whole expectation thing I cannot take. You get married of course you immediately have kids tra la la all will be well and if not WHY NOT?!

I can state categorically that being from a large family where my parents have many grandchildren and great grandchildren, there's still massive amounts of pressure. My dad's been bugging me for a grandchild since I was about 16. You'd think that when I told them it's not going to happen, that'd be it, but no. He has memory problems and needs to be reminded occasionally. It's like picking a scab.

Oh goodness, hormones and sport relief not a good mix.

Code opening an already sore wound must be awful so huge hugs to you.

Isla my mums always known I was going to have fertility probs and so have inlaws I just didn't know things were going to be as complex.

Great article Isla. Code I agree, DH and I both from large families and our siblings all have children already but no less pressure

Question - how strict is everyone about taking their stims at the same time each night? I stupidly did 1st injection really late but want to go to bed - does it even matter do you know?

Code that's impossibly hard.

PM night and doesn't life love a nasty curve ball?

tea, I'm sitting sobbing through Sport Relief with a box of tissues and a heap of choccies.
