watched like three episodes of One Born Every Minute on 4od. My guilty pleasure!

Mine too, watched a whole series in one day last year!!

Feeling a bit glum today, even though I've just finished, is there such a thing as post-menstrual stress?!

I think perhaps I'm worried about the month ahead, it's the first cycle I've been quite focused on TTC. Early night needed I think!

Sorry you are feeling down Lulu. We are on cycle 6 too and I can't even find any evidence of ov at the moment which is worrying me... If one more person tells me to relax and it will happen, arghhhhh!!!!

I find my mood drops the worst just after AF!

Sorry you're feeling down about all of this, Lulu. I know it can be difficult, but hang in there! It can be difficult for some men to get on board with the whole TTC thing, so to speak.

*hugs* for Lulu and snowball. Sorry i've been AWOL all weekend, OOH had her birthday weekend and I got taken to a metal club... (NOT my scene!) was ridiculous fun, but I am beyond tired, even now.

According to ovia, my fertile window is 8-13, so maybe a valentines babe? it's not without the realms of possibility. I swear I felt some OV yesterday.... freakin' ridiculous.

I wish I knew how to help you Lulu, OH is just as bad, crazy amounts of dtd this weekend, and part of me is just thinking 'but what a waste!' but I don't want it becoming a chore :-/ we had a frank chat about it last night though, and another chat scheduled for tonight, so hopefully we can work out a way to make it work... if I find such a holy grail of information - I promise to let you all know!

dottymrsp I've just seen your post from 28/01 re No. 4. It's taken me 6 years to convince DH we should try for No. 4 and he says he's still not 100% on board but is willing to try. He also says he knows he will love him/her once they are here. His main reason for being reluctant to TTC again is that our 2 youngest had a very rare form of epilepsy, with a very poor prognosis but they have both turned out fine and all doctors are stumped as to why they have turned out as well as they have and the fact that we have 2 children with the same condition, when there is no genetic reason for it (they are currently part of a genetic study in Cambridge). I however, have the utmost faith in the power of medicine and prayer as that is what helped our younger 2 children get through it :A.

I have 3 friends who each have 4 children and my aunt has 4, so I'm in good company! I knew from the moment DD1 was born that I wanted 4 but DH was adamant he only wanted 2, then we had 3 and now hopefully will have 4 .

I thought of you yesterday with your 4 - I'm an avid blog reader, and one of the bloggers I follow said she and her OH are contemplating #7... and there were people commenting saying they had 12!!!

Just had some spotting so I reckon AF will be here in a bit.
