I've just read Toni Weschler's book Taking Charge of your Fertility and found it really interesting. It took us over 2 years to have our daughter and we're trying for number 2 so I'm ready to give anything a shot. I'm just interested to know how well known this approach is, and also to hear of successful experiences.

If someone what a baby then they want a baby, shouldn't matter weather they have children already or not, as long as the children they have already are looked after everything else shouldn't matter!

just done my checks for today and got slightly sticky fmucus and two purpl lines on the ov test stick and a bit of crampy pain and its cd14 , so heres hoping this is the one, the chinese conception calander i got says this is the month if i conceive it will be a girl, anyone ever had a result with one of these??

Tell me about it!! I cry every time A/F arrives! DH keep's saying "don't stress over it, it'll happens when it happens", yes that true but my life feels on hold and I don't stress on propose!!

mummymelling · 24/08/2006 12:13

TOTALLY agree with you!!! but this trying thing is so alien to me ,never had to do it b4,its tedious and stressful even tho i try not to let it get to me, you just keep hoping maybe this cycle, and its sooo disappointing when its not

Babymad4num3 · 24/08/2006 12:08

MM i would love a girl too, but after trying for 13 mths now, just to be PG would be a god send, plus the most important thing is a health baby!

mummymelling · 24/08/2006 12:05

I would dearly love a girl nxt ,but dh wants a boy, we are adopting my two boys soon as he has brought up the 2 yr old so far , we met when i was 6mth pg , after ex h walked out on us to live with former best mate across rd.

Babymad4num3 · 24/08/2006 12:02

mummymelling · 24/08/2006 11:45

i got green tea in cupboard, when you sposed to drink it??

mummymelling · 24/08/2006 11:44

i worked full time until last month but since we got married it dosent pay to as ive lost all my ctcredits , so it seemed like a good time to try for a baby, the tiredness and sickness wont be so much of a prob, if i ever get pg that is lol

Piffle · 24/08/2006 10:27

How am I feeling
Ugh [grin ]Tired sick and grim
But happy
Yes the month I conceived I did EVERYTHING
EPO grapefruit juice green tea, pre seed, legs in the air, doggy style (this pos has worked for lots of the July ttc gang)
Something worked LOL

MrsMcJnr · 24/08/2006 10:21

Hi Babymad - no, not managed to use the pre-seed yet. Hopefully tonight . That's if I can stay awake long enough waiting for DH to get home from the pub. Sorry to hear you are not feeling great either and about your skin. It must be hard with two little ones to look after. LOL about DH thinking that you were waiting for him!!did the trick though!!

Mummymelling - I haven't tried those kits I'm afraid.
