Oh sorry hun! i will keep my fingers crossed for you anyway! xx

tortoiseshell · 22/08/2005 19:41

champs, it is medically necessary for him to oblige - semen contains prostaglandin which is the hormone they use to induce you (the one to soften the cervix). Think it is his moral duty!

jabberwocky · 22/08/2005 21:26

Don't forget the nipple tweaking!

champs · 22/08/2005 23:29

HelenEmjay -- thanks!!

tortoiseshell -- LOL, i'll remind him later. I'm on a mision wonder if my pink number still fits
