emmsy's onwards and upwards part 2, more good new please!

I think you are spot on with the water theory. I am rushing off to book a holiday, booze in vast crates, dozens of opks, anything else girls, come on I'm getting past my sell by date

sabs you are sounding brighter, your dad sounds lovely.x

Jools - laughing at your "sods law" of getting pregnant tips!! I bought loads of new size 8 clothes and went to the wholesalers and bought 3 crates of Smirnoff Ice the week before I found out I was pregnant last time. (weirdly the best before date on the smirnoff ice turned out to be same week as my EDD!)

jools i bought 2 packs of ovulator indicator kits (making the most of boots BOGOF offers) and ended up not using that either!

i bought grapefruit juice but hated the taste of it, ended up chucking it down the sink!

meant saw my GP this morning...at 9am...so only three hours ago! blame "mumnesia"! lol

Best conception tip I've got is drink LOADS of water

I was drinking grapefruit juice but wasn't allowed it on my diet, but was supposed to drink at least 2.5 litres of water per day. This makes you produce more CM - am sure it helped me

Other tip - buy a 6 month stock of tampons / book a holiday that you can't "do" if PG, buy a 2 seater car !!! I think they call it the law of pregnativity - will encourage that BFP to arrive when it is least expected and most inconvenient

morning ladies (well it was morning when i started writing this!)...ive resigned myself to the fact that i will never be able to keep on here, lol! whilst even writing this, i refreshed and saw even more new posts!

oh my gosh - such good news! congrats to jools and blue i am so happy for you! sending you both, annie and mollie lots of sticky thoughts....im 16 weeks and still knicker check...

vjay sorry to hear youve been feeling down...we're all allowed to have down days...dont apologise for a "me" post, i think we're all entitled to do that from time to time!....Hope you're feeling better...

babyinacorner you asked for conception tips - I was using the conception pregnacare tablets when i conceived and also (dont laugh!) but i always threw my legs in the air after each BD session

4ever and annie hope yesterday went OK for you. I just spent a lot of time with DH yesterday, who had a cry yesterday. I was quite strong yesterday in that I was deep in thought but didnt cry..maybe its cos i cried during the week...but my family were really sweet and my dad took me, my siblings and nieces out for dinner cos he knew how down i was, which was nice, he was being mum whilst my mum is away on holiday

neeko safari park, i havent been to one in ages! we were thinking of going to one yesterday. which 1 did u go to?

vjay so excited for u that lo is kicking more and more...im just really worried that i wont know what it feels like when my baby moves

welcome kay this is a wonderful cave....i dont think i'll ever leave (unless i get kicked out, lol!) and lol at the text talk...i think i do it lots on here as well!

MLS sending you lots of baby dust on your 2ww...

scorpio have fun with DH!

bakingqueen you can feel up or down on here, we're here for you whatever the weather...

barbie think us BFP'ers are still going to stick around on here...you cant get rid of us that easily!

mm so glad to see you back!!

sabs waves to kate littlebellsmum barbie mermaid lionstar and any1 else ive missed

thanx to all for your kind words. Saw my GP yesterday and hoping to keep busy so i dont think about work too much. Need to find a way to relax! Easier said than done

Oh the mental images you ladies give me, lol, I'm going this time!!!!!

I'm not going anywhere, I needed the short break but I will never be away for too long, and that's a promise.

Will be back later need to go pick up DD, she had a sleepover at her friends last night so going to walk round and get her.

Speak soon my lovely ladies.

Mermaid - maybe you've got so many bits crossed, that TTC is not gonna work

I have a very strange mental image of a tangled Mermaid now hehe

MM Hurray Hurray Hurray Welcome back my lovely, so wonderful to "see" you. Fantastic news about your change in plans and now nnttc you and Barbie can have a race!

yes stay here you cannot leave - I can't go anywhere cos I have so many bits crossed for so many people that I can't move anymore

I feel like I am being reunited with long lost friends here, god I have missed you all sooooo much , just realising how much now!!!

mm hello gorgeous!

Waves back to jools and everyone else I have been missing!!!!

{waves to MM ]

Barbie - am not stopping the gym yet - planning on Body Pump and Body Attack tonight as usual.

I shall just listen to my body and slow down if anything feels odd or uncomfortable. Will let my instructors know if when I get to 6 weeks Feels like tempting fate to say anything now.

I was never too far away hun, missed you all.

Barbie glad you think us A&E nurses are brilliant - we don't get told that very often!

MM welcome back!

Hi Ladies,

I'm back. Just heard blue's news this morning and had to come back to send her big congratulations. Can't wipe the smile from my face and it looks like lots of good news on here while I have been away............got a lot to catch up on.

Sorry I've been away so long but RL has really took over, not going to bore you all with the details but lets just say ttc has felt like a million miles away..............well that was until Sat night. Don't quite know what changed but lets just say we are not doing anything to nttc, neither one of us have spoke about what we are doing, I think we are scared to say it out loud. Feeling both nervous and excited atm, here we go again I guess!!!!

barbie another original member back to join you hun.

Barbie - I am here and was wondering where you were

Internet connection at work is a bit dodgy today but I shall persevere and attempt to keep in touch

Is it lunchtime yet - I am STARVING !

Barbie - we'll be soon - I promise!!!

BakingQueen A&E is just shit rubbish isn't it, we had a 13 day old baby abbandoned last week, I was soooo tempted to kidnap the poor little bugger. I've got used to looking after people having miscarriages now and probably do a better job than before my miscarriage, but I just really struggle with people who purposely damage their pregnancies/babies.

sorry barbie I take ages to type
