So on my profile (hopefully) there is a picture of the famous fertility statues. They are currently on display at ripleys believe it or not in Orlando. In September 2008 I touched these statues and then conceived in my third month of trying in 2009. I had been trying for 9 months to Conceive dc2 when I saw something about the statues and saved a photo of them to my ipad. I dutifully touched the photo a couple of times and now in the tenth month of trying I am pregnant!
Now I know its probably a load of bull and it was probably just my time to get pregnant but anyone want to give it a go and report back on this thread? Would be interesting not very scientific at all experiment.
Let me know if the photo isn't there but hopefully it is on my profile.

Photo fondled, may it bring success!

keepitgoing · 31/03/2013 12:12

Why bother with the ivf mrsden :)

I just got back from delivering a model pens to a fertility shrine, in appreciation for ivf that has, so far, worked. I am equally more loony.

keepitgoing · 31/03/2013 12:12

That's penis, not pens. Clearly haven't written that before, autocorrect!

mrsden · 31/03/2013 12:21

Ohhh going does this mean you're pregnant??

keepitgoing · 31/03/2013 12:35

I should have added that I'm only just on the 2ww, literally have my legs on the air as I peruse MN!

Dutifully stroked and saved! Grin

pinkcarnations · 31/03/2013 15:00

I'll give it a try [busmile]

mrsden · 31/03/2013 15:42

Congratulations keep and quiet I understand the taking it one day at a time, but hopefully this is your time. Yes, we have severe male factor so in theory icsi should sort us out, either that or the fertility statues [buwink]

joycep · 31/03/2013 15:58

sudaname · 31/03/2013 15:58
