hedgepig - ds started at a nursery/kindergarten attached to a school this year - he doesn't start "proper" school until next year. We got all very scientific last time towards the end, and I used to hate that "we've got to do it today or tomorrow" knowledge as it put so much pressure on things.
Someone I know swore by a "fertility spell" that could help you to ceonceive. I'm very sceptical about things like that, but did it anyway (desperation!) and we actually conceived the month after we did the spell!
So I'll reproduce it here for everyone else just in case you fancy trying it:
"This spell requires a green candle (an additional blue candle for healing is recommended if there is a medical condition involved), a small square of green cloth and a tie, a small amount of rich soil, and a nut or seed. You'll also need a candleholder and some matches.
This spell should be performed in the bedroom if possible. Using your projective hand (the one you write with) hold the
green candle and charge it with fertile energy. Imagine a healthy pregnancy, a beautiful baby. See it as if it already happened. (If you use the blue candle, repeat the procedure, this time seeing your problems healed). Place the candle(s) on a table and light them, feeling the fire energize the spell. Then take the soil, charging it with the fertility of the earth, of growth. Sprinkle it around the candle(s). Then let the candle(s) burn down on their own (Never leave a candle burning unattended). When the candles burn
down, take the soil and place it in the green cloth. Then take the seed or nut and "plant" it in the soil. Tie up the cloth tightly and carry it with you. Also, place it in your bed when you do YOUR planting! If you get a pretty cloth and tie it with a pretty green ribbon you can hang it in your bedroom and it just looks like one of those pot pourri things."
