Hi Woody :-)

No, not much to sort really...just got to pay for / collect the suits, collect the dress, have my hair and nails done and that's about it.

Oh, and fill the favours with their sweets - see links for favour boxes:

dino

piggy

I know they're for kids really, but we love them anyway :-)

Then we have to lug it all 170 miles down the road the day before the wedding. Sooooo close now. 9 working days left!

And yeah, Dulcet, any symptoms?

I'm on a promise for tomorrow night, so maintaining the EOD approach. Quite surprised I haven't had a smiley yet, as I feel most odd in the ovary region, though not as painful as OV has been for the last couple of months. Maybe I'm just brewing an egg!

I utterly despise natural hormones. I feel so rough / odd for a good half of the month :-(

I love those nic, i'd love to get one those as a favour! What sweets you doing??

Not sure about the symptoms but I feel a bit weird. Full maybe? Weeing a lot but that does happen to me. I'm just thinking about it too much really! Last month of trying of 2012 so I guess I am just hopeful but we all know thats dangerous!!

Yeah I have no symptoms either dulcet, when do you plan to start TTC again? If no BFP that is!

We have Haribo hearts, fried eggs and cola bottles :-) Can't beat a bit of Haribo!

I'd forgotten it's your last attempt this year, Dulcet. FX you catch this month. Will you hang about, either way?

I hate symptom spotting. Our bodies love to play games when we're TTC :-(

I'm coming to the conclusion that SS is a cruel joke our bodies play on us. I had all sorts this time and my boobs felt exactly the same as they did when I was pg. I was peeing in the middle of the night ffs! Then af shows up as if nothing happened.
Oh nic u sooooo close now! Where are u getting married and why so far from home? Have u had hen do yet?

Dulcet why last try this year?

DulcetMoans · 26/09/2012 20:33

For wedding date lol, having a break so not ready to pop on wedding day. Will start again in January and maybe be a pregnant bride! Don't tell the bride was a pregnant one this week, it made me much happier with the prospect!

Nothing beats haribo nic, NOTHING! Love it so much more than chocolate. Actually, jelly sweets are actually one of my fave things in the world!

Ah...we missed DTTB as we were shagging! I'll have to watch the repeat :-)

I love Haribo too. Loads!

Ooh...missed you there, Lol!

I know, it's so very close now :-)

I'm getting married where I'm from, and that's 170 miles from where Bri is from, so we're trekking down south for it.

My non-hen hen do (I can't stand the L plate / veil thing) is a week on Friday. 14 of us going out for a meal and drinks. Should be fun.

I watched that one Dulcet ...didn't she look beautiful! I didn't know they could adjust any dress like that! I loved the dress she chose first, Infact I think my dress shop had that dress. Think it was my british designer! Even I wished I had been a bride with a bump...how ridicoulous I can never just be happy and content that I've done it :-)

kNickerbockerGloryCherry · 27/09/2012 07:07

I'm quite glad I don't have a bump in a weird way...I'd feel a bit uncomfortable getting married in church already pregnant. Strict upbringing which I can't quite escape!!

But I don't have anything near a bump, just a flat stomach ready for a bump! :-/

Fx for this cycle...Mrs and bump creation in one month :-)

I know what u mean nic. I didn't get married in church but I didn't fancy a bump either!
Try to enjoy the moment and don't let ttc spill it though. You've for plenty of time to get pg after the wedding if it doesn't happen this month. And it means you can enjoy champagne on the day!

Thundercatsarego · 27/09/2012 08:21

I've never had a properly flat stomach, no matter how skinny the rest of me gets. Envy of that!!

kNickerbockerGloryCherry · 27/09/2012 08:27

I know, Lol...and it may be my last drinking session for a while, so I'll have a good time without going too crazy :-)

I've been lucky, Thunder! I did lose it for a while, but got it back when I lost 2 stone last year. Now I want a bump! :-/

I'd rather have a baby now...fx it happens soon. My head is getting bonked off tonight too. H2B has taken to this extra sex thing a bit too enthusiastically...had to tell him last night wasn't necessary!!

Morning all - a bump was the furthest thing from my mind on my wedding day 3 years ago! We were only 25 at the time and not ready to start a family! How times change - now we're desperate!!

6dpo today and so aware of my general womb area and I'm worried that its going to be a short LP, just have a weird feeling AF isn't too far away! Keeping my fx though!

The temps aren't as hard as they sound, as you can just take it each morning then let the app/website do all the work of making sense of them. I like it because it gives me something positive I can do each day, even in the 2ww. Makes me feel more in control.

letskiwithisthing · 27/09/2012 09:50

Yeah I agree Tal, I will stick with it until I get my BFP soon I hope

Been a bit worried about my temps as although they are above cover line they are only marginally above it, but today they went up by 3 whole tenths! Hope it's a sign of more high temps to come! Maybe my progesterone takes a while to get going :)

TalTangerine · 27/09/2012 09:57

Mine seems to lets, I never feel like I have the standard beautiful chart but the general shape is right so I feel OK about it. I have very low temps anyway - pre ov from 35.6-9, post ov 36-36.2, with the odd 36.4. If I don't have any luck this month I'll ask doc to look into it again for thyroid problems, but they said I was fine last time I asked.

Hi everyone - I can't believe it's almost the end of September.

Love the favour boxes nicola - it sounds like you are pretty organised. I know what you mean about symptom spotting - my body always convinces me that I'm pregnant.

Going to see a homeopath later so hoping they will have some suggestions.

She did look great pear and I will embrace my bump in a wedding dress if it comes to it! Might not even matter if this month works but if it doesn't, something to look forward to! No such religious/upbringing worries here - my mum was 16 when she had me!

On phone so can't do list but:

Dulcetmoans, cycle 5, BFP due 11th oct

I think that's right!!
