Congratulations cbmc 
. Sorry, I saw your post earlier but assumed you'd posted by accident in our thread and weren't actually a 'berry' as we hadn't heard your story! It's always nice to hear success stories of people getting pg when they have been trying for more than a year or two 
. Is yours an 'au natural' surprise after trying for a while or clomid/ivf etc?
Happy Christmas Berries!! With all the imminent IVF I reckon next year will be a Berry bump and baby bonanza!!

Onwards and upwards lady, AF is a mixed blessing but always good to know the plumbing is still working. I've just been for a run so I've probably destroyed all the chi in my kidneys and will never have a normal cycle ever again.
Struggling a little today. I do not need generic texts from people I haven't heard from all year (except to announce their bump) signed by them and their children 
. I also do not need comments from my mum about how isn't visiting her brother for the first time in years because of course she has grandchildren now 
. I most of all don't need to be sat here crying because this Christmas I was supposed to have a little 5 month bump 
.
Someone please slap me with a pig in blanket.

Merry Christmas lovely ladies. Am certain 2014 is going to be a very fertile year for us all.
In a drunken moment last week DP told his mum that we've been TTC and also about our visit to the FC. Today is the first time I've seen here since so I've had it all today. Apparently all we need to do Berries is eat sprouts, relax and tilt our pelvises (pelvi??) after DTD. So that's where we've been going wrong all these months!!

Are you suitably relaxed though Feather as I'm not sure the sprouts and pelvis tilting will work in isolation!!
Oh and she also told DP last week that there is some kind of special massage that helps with getting upduffed

Sorry Feather didn't read the rest of your post before I posted.
So very sorry to hear about your uncle and sad milestone today. Sending lots of hugs

Oh, don't worry happy - I'm ok, just fleeting feelings of sadness about the three months that could have been. Uncle lives overseas, so odd feeling but we weren't close.
CD5 here and af still hanging about. Might go tilt my pelvis, eat some cold chipolatas and see what happens

Ha ha! kitty, brilliant typo!
I've been cheered up by a long phonecall with DP . And I've got half a wedding dress made, bought 3 bridesmaids dresses (online) and decided on a wedding reading. All good progress!

Not sure I'd feel that differently Kitty - I'm veggie (which is another reason MIL suggested as to why I'm not pg)

Well she's quite right Happy, it's well known that there's never been a pg vegetarian. I don't know why you're not eating nothing but raw meat (and sprouts), you're just not trying 
.
Kitty I worked on the dress on christmas eve but did nothing yesterday apart from lay on the sofa with my feet up browsing on the ipad! I did go for a run before food but it was short and slow!
I've not even opened work email since the start of the holidays .
Boodle, yes, that makes me feel a lot better!!!

Reading the thread this morning has made me chuckle, fecking meerkat babies (also missed that one barking) and not getting pg unless you eat sprouts and raw meat!
Right I'm off to decorate the new thread
