Hi FF's,
Your positive vibes clearly worked as I got the job
Now I feel terrified! aries it is for a head of year job. AGHHH! Oh well, it doesn't start until August so have some time to get my head round it. I think they might be cross with me if I get pregnant soon after giving me the job but oh well, accidents happen! The extra money will come in handy for TTC plans and the pricy health insurance that we have to take out so dh and I are really pleased!
pil update- all is looking promising... Heathrow is open. Stranded best friend and her dp are on a 6.30pm flight out this evening so an keeping everything crossed that the pils will be gone soon.
Congrats on the peak day flo! Thats the sort of thing that would get me so excited! I love it when FF says I've Ovulated and am in a great mood all day because of it! Sad I know! Hope gfj is doing its job and you got some good swi in last night!
Oh God- Adrian Chiles?!! aries!!!! ERGHHH- I don't know if I could have carried on. I laughed when I read the post before about my job interview, You must have been thinking 'what is she having a job interview at 3am?!' and wondering what type of job I'd applied for ;)
I feel left out- I want to have a baby at Addenbrookes like everyone else! I also want a CBFM like flo and bellaby! [stomps feet in tantrum!]
cavemum- I LOVE dancing. Unfortunately there are not many dance classes around these parts. I used to do Irish dancing for years when I was younger and that was a bloody good work out! You and pinkie must be honed, toned, love machines with all that dancin'! Another thing to be envious of!!!
Oh claire. thats lovely that you and your dh especially learn songs for the couples first dance at a wedding. I bet that is such a special moment for the two of you to be part of. Like I said to bellaby- I love a good wedding and to have a job that involved weddings would be my idea of a perfect job!
Am also a huge fan of OBEM claire and CavemumMy dh loves it too. He says it has really shown him what a man experiences during child birth and has given him an idea of what to expect. I think he was shocked at first about how much hanging around there is but now feels that he is more prepared and could handle it all well. He is always the first to criticise the men on it so we'll see when the time come
wannamummy when will you poas? Lots of people say that they were convinced that AF wa co,ing when they got their BFP as they had AF type cramps so you never know... fingers crossed for you hun. Reading this just before eating my lunch and talk of your sausage and pasta bake is making me even more hungry. MMMM. You can't get good sausages here- I really miss tesco's pork and apple ones ;(
mrswajs I know what you mean! Sometimes it's just information overload isn't it?! You expect to feel more informed and help TTC but just end up more confused! Are you using fertility friend? I have found that really useful as I just input my data and it plots all of the points for you and it puts a big fat red gross across the graph when it predicts that you have ovulated. You can compare graphs too so you look for patterns between your cycles. I've only been using it for two cycles and I've found it really helps. Sorry if you're already using it and I've just waffled on! I would just rely on temping and FF as I know I would go mad if I was getting conflicting advice from OPKs too. I know that some people swear by them but I have also heard lots of people who say that they are not very reliable- like everything I guess. I've not used them personally but perhaps one of the other girls has? Perhaps you could post on the grads and see if they had any success with OPKs?
kaloki- I am sure that you know what is best for you and your body and that you'll be able to make an informed decision when the time comes (which will be soon, I know ) xx
Good idea for thread title evilgiraffe we def need some new recruits so that cavemum and I aren't lonely when we start to actually ttc- You'll all have your BFPs by then so we need some new crazy baby ladies! Gald your doc is being proactive. Fingers crossed for good bloods on thurs.
Have a great day- half way to the weekend. Wooo and hopefully it will be pil free!
