Andy, like i said to Claire, hubby and i should know by the 22 November what's happening.. But i have a feeling we will be fine.. :)

And, you will give your hubby and mom those cute little outfits soon.. That is a wonderful idea to give as an announcement... :) Yup, lets hope we just need the Ovidrel to get our BFP..

I have decided i will test on the 29 November on my mom's birthday, wouldnt that be a nice birthday present.. I found out i was pregnant with Chloe on my birthday and what a wonderful feeling and birthday present that was.. :laugh:

2kidmamma, is your cycle always 28 days?

Morning ladies!!!

Hayley, about smoking. I smoked for about 12 years then a couple of months before we were to start TTC'ing I gave up (I did use Zyban though) I have now stopped for over 3 years. Having a kid has definitely been motivation for me. DH still smokes but only outside. He has ordered this book called Allen Carrs Easyway to stop smoking. Apparently this book is phenomenal - pretty much guarantees you to stop smoking. I know of 3 people that have stopped (and were hectic smokers) since reading his book. There are also seminars that you can attend (not sure on the price) Just an idea. My sister used a hypnotist and it didnt work for her.

Good luck!!!

TaNasha!! Your holiday looks divine!

PF, I must agree with Andy here. I too would rather wait for AF then get a negative hence why I havent tested as yet.

Claire, hope your DH's job is ok.

2km, so exciting, when do you think you will test?

KM, use your gut to when you want to test. If you know your cycles to be long then wait and see. Everything is sounding so positive for you though.

Andy, how you doing?

AFM...nothing much to report. Has a slight decline in temp this morning but nothing serious. Friday is D-day so will see if AF shows her ugly face or not.

Morning Ladies

Yaaaaayyyy Haley, I knew it would work out! Fx FX Fx and BD BD BD now Girl!

AFM: Still awaiting AF but today is only CD28. Headache was bad all day and that is usually a surefire sign. We will see. I have no cramping today though and usually I have cramping on the day AF should arrive.

Hi everyone!!

Claire, that's scary stuff. Is your husband still waiting to hear his lot or is he in the clear? Shame, that's bad!! Hayley, they were doing retrenchment at your work as well... Have you and DH heard anything yet?

Pienk Feetjie, I'm sorry that you're feeling depressed. But like some of the girls said surely the new meds are contributing as well as the move and the snakes and the sore ankle and your little girl not sleeping well. Personally, I would only test when AF is AT LEAST 3 days late, but like I explained before, I would rather see AF arrive then see a negative test result. I'm always the voice of reason to the POAS (pee on a stick) addicts on here :lol: If you feel you really really really really need to know as in yesterday, then go for bloods on Friday, but prepare yourself for the worst. The Myprodols for your pain and the herbal laxative should not pose any danger to a baby in the fist 3 or 4 weeks because baby is in it's own little sack and doesn't take anything from your body until the placenta forms and starts working. So you and baba will be perfectly safe until you know for sure AF is definately late and then POAS. I hope all of that makes sense?

Hayley, such good news about your follies. Fingers crossed that the Ovidrel shot is all you need to get your BFP this month (just like Lucy). I would also love nothing more than to be pregnant before Christmas. I bought the cutest growers that I want to give DH and my mom to announce my pregnancy (back in the day when I thought this is going to be easy :( ). DH's one has a little sperm on and it says "Daddy's little winner" and my mom's one has a trophy with a number one on and says "Ouma se eerste" . Would be great if I could give them that as Christmas presents.

Izelle, how are you keeping up with not testing? Just one more sleep :woohoo: :woohoo: You must be so excited. Good luck for tomorrow morning.

Nothing to report on my side. OPK last night was very much negative and still no ferning, so I was propably right in my prediction that O will only be by the end of the week.
