Greetings rach, BookWorm and SmartDoodle. I lurked for ages on the Conception board before finally investing in this thread! And I'm glad I did! Like most people TTC, I have been trying hard and pretending outwardly to be calm and rational and living life normally, so it's great to have an outlet.
ELA, we did read the first few chapters of 'What to Expect' when we started TTC (there's a 'Conception' chapter) - and we found it very detailed and readable. It felt very naughty buying it because we weren't actually 'expecting'! The layout is a bit strange, but it has a comprehensive index. I expect that people who prefer a laid-back TTC process might not want to read it, but DH and I found it answered lots of our questions.
LLL, no yoga for me, but it sounds like a great idea. Pilates helped me feel that I was preparing my body and not just killing time before a BFP.
rach don't worry about your age and a glass of wine.
So, as an update, after my virtually non-existent faint line on Monday morning (about 10 DPO) I re-tested again today and got a proper BFP on a Superdrug test (which I would fully recommend - really sensitive and cheap as well) and a Clear Blue digital!
So fingers crossed hopefully this little one will decide to stay.
I'll hang around a bit on this thread because I'm too scared to move across to pregnancy board at such an early stage (as I've tested early, who knows, it might be a chemical pregnancy...), but nonetheless THE VERY BEST OF LUCK to everyone!
