Hi majjie,

We are currently on our second TWW and slowly going insane. Early pregnancy symptoms very closely resemble that of PMS, so they are very easily confused and make that TWW just that bit more unbearable.

As for tips on when to try, I highly reccommend purchasing some ovulation prediction kits (OPK). These are very easy to use and, depending on which ones you choose, relatively inexpensive. OPKs will determine your two most fertile days to inseminate by giving you an indication of a "surge" of LH roughly 24 hours before you ovulate. Also, if you notice a clear, slimy discharge (like egg white) this is also a good indicator of your fertile time.

Good luck!

Leather and Lace - just noticed you live near a few of us, we have a meetup every Wednesday at Gloria Jean's in Morayfield... There are a few straight and lesbian mums with little babies, and myself too. I went before I fell pg too so that's not a requirement!!

Congrats on your little squeak!

Leasha told us about the local meet up on Wednesdays, we weren't able to make it last week though. Our jobs require us to get up really early in the morning so we were "nana napping", it was either that or prop our eyelids up with some toothpicks.

Hopefully one day we will get up there to meet you all.

Hi mumiloo,

When we are out I breastfeed in the sling unless my hip/back is playing up, but it is usually the hip carry or kangacarry on my belly. Shes actually in it right now cos shes sick and clinging so i just use it whenever lol. We have an infantino carrier but i dont like it as much as the sling.

we have booby mumma, Shel came up with that lol.

Hi, We are brand new to this, TTC #1 Feb 09, now Day 8 of the TWW. It is the longest 2 weeks of my life, with so many things I could be doing, but instead spend hours obsessing over how much longer we have to wait!
Anyhoo.. we live in Northern NSW, Lismore to be exact, and would love to get to know others on the same journey.
