Ok Ladies... new thread, since the old one was getting too long and dragging my computer (and Kat's) down with it!

MrsD - cant believe you are 30 weeks already! So you found that cutting out the lactose helps? It will be almost a week for me and I have noticed some improvement, but not a lot. Of course, he is still getting a milk-based formula supplement to the BFing. I am going to switch to a soy formula and see if it makes a difference as well. Until then... God give me strength!!! LOL

Loopy, I really hope it works for you but ds2 was conceived on twice a day loving! With plenty of build up with ovulation.
Ds1 was also a once a night like routine baby.
DD1 was a cd 5 and cd10 nooky baby and this DD was a twice a day baby. So I think it's been a roll of the dice for us. But so many women swear it works, it has to be worth a good go!

How's everyone else? I'm 29 weeks, measuring 32 weeks, all seems ok.

Hopefully the Shettles works for you. I get pg pretty easily too (now) and they say you are even more fertile after a M/C. Im sure the 2ww will be torture!

Just dropping in to say good luck Loopy and welcome and lots of luck to Matumble too!! Glad to see the thread is still going
Ds1 is now 8 months and the girls still think he's wonderful, long may it last!!

Summer hols start tomorrow and I'm so pleased, we love the lack of routine and being able to do things as and when, unfortunately Dh will be away for the first 3 weeks with work so will be a bit tough as we look forward to the weekends when he's usually home.....

How is everyone else? kat? babyblue? Means? anyone else?!!

Big waves.

I had read a few pages and seen you were feeling a little lonely ttc, im sure there must be some more daft people considering building their family up, maybe we will be joined by more soon!

had never heard of shettles, did a bit of a google and it sounds interesting, I have very odd cycles though so I doubt it would be that accurate, plus I know what i am doing with girls now! well thats what i keep telling myself! I am quite a young mum and definately the baby of my group of friends and i got a shock last week to realise that despite my age i am seen as knowing about this parenting lark by someone who always seems very sorted and is a good few years older asking my advice! I was quite impressed! amazing what inflates an ego isnt it

Hi all, can I join in, we are just officially ttc #4, im pretty terrified, not sure why but im struggling a bit with this! I want the child just wish i could avoid the pregnancy!

we have 3 girls aged 5,3 and 1 (Friday gone) I had pre eclampsia and postnantal depression with the first 2 but not the third (not sure if there is a link there) so im hoping for luck to smile on me again this time, a nice simple uneventful hospital free pregnancy would do me down to the ground!

Loopy, good luck! I can't believe that there's an APRIL bus already! Wow!

BB, I hope your friend is ok this time, makes me remember why I am so grateful for the children I do have.x

Thats wonderful news Loopy!! Hopefully things work out for you this time round. My girlfriend that I have known since we were 4, has just told me she is 6 weeks along and I cant be happier. She needs fertility shots to conceive and has been through a rough past few years (one baby lost at one month old due to heart defect and MC at 10 weeks). Makes me feel very blessed to have my 4 healthy babies.

Loopy, (hugs), it's so cruel. I hope the next time is easy for you.xxx

BB, no way, I'm not done lol! Still cooking my fourth. How's the family? Running going ok?

Kat, one month already!!!!!!!!!! She is so yummy! Vasectomy, yikes!!!!! I have no idea what we want to do on that front. Seems so final. I'm pretty sure I don't want any more but I'm 29, what's to say in 4 years I won't feel differently????? Arggghhhh, I don't know. Part of me dreads the thought of a 5th, it's not in my plans lol! But I'll be the first to admit that I'm ruled by my hormones. Hohum lol. I hope it goes well for your dh, snip snip snippety snip!

26 weeks here and I am sooo tired, not sure if it's a drop in iron or the heat. I'll try to eat better lol.

How's everyone else doing?
