Soph73 · 04/05/2007 11:32

Morning all! I´ve actually had work to do this morning so wasn´t on MN as early as usual - shocking state of affairs!

Welcome sandcastles!

Scorpio - poor you In response to your question I definately have a name for our baby if it´s a girl, which DH doesn´t really like, it´s not weird though. I´m not sure what we´d do if we had a boy though because we used our only name for DS. I know what I´d like to call a boy but DH had a really horrible uncle with that name so it´s a definate no no!

Oh no, more work to do - be back soon!

scorpio1 · 04/05/2007 11:34

not going to share the name?? [please]

Soph73 · 04/05/2007 11:41

OK, but you´ve got to tell me yours! Emily, if it´s a girl (obviously - derr) and I really like Jack for a boy but that´s not going to happen!! Our DS is called Tom.

scorpio1 · 04/05/2007 11:45

Mine is Jasper.

we already have a Reilly,Jamie-Levi and Zachary.

dp won't stand for the name jasper but he didnt like Jamie's name either and i won that one... for a boy he wants Toby/Koby which are ok imo.

we havent really thought of girls because we dont think we will be having one!i like Taila (say taylor) though, and Alanis.

i love weird names!!

Soph73 · 04/05/2007 11:57

They are lovely names. Although not sure about Koby - Toby´s nice though. How does it feel to be that outnumbered?

scorpio1 · 04/05/2007 11:59

horrid!! i am quite a girly girl too, its ok becaus they are still very young but what am i gonna do when theyre all teens??

sandcastles · 04/05/2007 12:02

Thanks Scorpio, thanks Soph.

Took us a year to TTC dd. More sloppy planning than anything else...

Will pay more attention this time!

tigerschick · 04/05/2007 12:18

Sandcastles - Welcome and good luck in your ttc

Scorpio - for you about your dp being away so much. Must be really draining. I love all your dc's names! Also like Toby but not sure about Koby. If we have a boy he'll almost definately be Oliver as it is the only name dh has ever really liked. Not sure for a girl, but we chose dd's name about 10 days before she was born. She was going to be Olivia but then we thought that if we had a boy in the future we couldn't call him Oliver! So we changed our minds! (She's Georgina, btw, we call her Georgie)

flosspot, tigerschick..thank you!

Soph73 · 04/05/2007 14:38

Well, I´m signing off for now as I have even more work to do, which is very distressing! Good luck everyone for the weekend . Have a good one!

MrsMcJ CD25 AF due Tues, testing Weds if no AF (hopefully!)

Flosspot ? can you tell us about those deals you strike? Could be a plan to get more BDing in our house!

Soph73 ? lots I don?t know though always learning, I?m fascinated by it all I have to say! Or should the word be obsessed?! I think I am more up for it than DH because I know more about the ?good days? then he does! Funnily enough, I worked hard all morning too ? must be catching!

Scorpio ? how are you feeling? Cold better? Personally, the more I get the less stressed I am ? more strikes at goal. It is a numbers game after all. Good luck Does that mean you have just got engaged?!! My baby I lost was Ava. We loved the name but it is her?s now so will have to think again. We like Xavier for a boy. Your names are unusual and nice !

PlummyMummy ? I think this cycle is more or less normal. Fingers crossed. Getting close to the most exciting/most disappointing time!

Tigerschick ? PMSL

Hey Flumpy ? thanks you should see all the books I have on the subject and I can hardly put them in the book shelf can I?! I think we need to find some ways to get our men?s libidos up!

Bobbydazzler ? BDing as much as possible has got to be the best way to TTC though! I just feel that as DH won?t be as active as I?d like, I have to maximise my chances! Thanks for the nice things you said Fingers crossed about your test results. You can get Preseed from AccessDiagnostics.com. They are really quick and reliable and have all manner of TTC goodies. They often have good money off offers too but I don?t know of any at the mo (I usually post the codes when I get them). Just out of interest, does DH cycle a lot? Zita West blames bikes for some sperm conditions along with hot baths and tighty whiteys. Have a lovely weekend!

Sweetkitty ? sorry to hear that TTC first time round was tough and sad it is very isolating. Thank god for MN! That?s amazing about your DD?s conception. There do seem to be so many things about TTC that we cannot understand, there has to be a magic element I think!

Wheely ? interesting analysis of my dream ? that makes a lot of sense. Did I tell you that I had a dream just before my MC about my paternal grandparents who are both dead? I was at a party with them and desperate to introduce them to my baby but she was somewhere else and they never quite met ? I interpret that as them telling me they?ll look after her for me in heaven how are you feeling?

Meto ? hope she stays at bay and you get that BFP

Welcome Sandcastles

Soph73 · 04/05/2007 15:26

Hi there - have managed to get back for 5 minutes before I can go home. Have just worked out that I´m CD29 and unfortunately it looks as though AF will be here this month as am getting stitch like pains in my left side - boobs still feel really enormous and tender (which doesn´t normally happen, the last time it did I was pg!) Hey ho. Have a good weekend everyone

sandcastles · 04/05/2007 15:28

MrsMcJnr - thank you!

flosspot · 04/05/2007 15:40

MrsMcJnr- married to a lawyer so everything is up for negotiation...if we buy a breadmaker, I won't need to send you out for fresh bread for breakfast every weekend...if we go to visit my mum this month, we'll visit your parents twice next month...if we BD every day for the next week, I won't order anything online for a month...you can go to sleep now if you service me when you wake up etc.

What have I become ?

scorpio1 · 04/05/2007 15:41

we have been engaged for a bit but he has so far not commited to a booking Glad you all like the names!

MrsMcJnr · 04/05/2007 15:54

Flosspot - sad admission but I am a lawyer, clearly need to work on the negotiating skills! Very good plan though!

Scorpio - that's lovely! make those plans girl! we all know BFPs turn up when you are thinking about something else (and especially if you would prefer they wouldn't just at that point!)

Welcome sandcastles . Glad to hear your cycle seems normal Mrs McJ. Really hope this is a lucky month for you. This is the first month I have enjoyed bding during the fertile time, so here's hoping.
