Hi everyone,
Firstly, I just wanted to say thanks to you all. I was really struggling with something at work and felt a bit fed up, then i thought I'd read about what you have all been up to and you really cheered me up.

AngelB, well....I think that I will not be alone in reporting that my DH is of the opinion that 'If I pretend everything is OK, then it will be'. I mean, he just doesn't want to talk about it. At first he even changed the subject when I bought it up. That was hard. I said to him 'You dont want to talk about it do you?' and he said no and that was that! I think that it helped him to talk to his parents. Gradually, he has spoken to me a little bit more on the subject and now he keeps telling me that he cant wait to have a baby. I got through the first few weeks by planning ahead with him and making a mental list of things to look forward to this year. I have painted a very negative picture, but really, he was quite supportive. If I cried, he gave me a hug and he was really great during the painful bits.

NIckster, thanks for the advice. I think I've got the URL attached but I cant get my pretty ticker on too. Help?? Oh, PAOS is my favourite acronym Pee on a stick! Ha ha.

Barbara, hmm, bridal shower....bad timing. Can you explain the situation to the bride to be? Listen to Katie's excellent advice and be selfish, I think that if these circumstances don't permit us to be selfish, then nothing will.

Betty I know what you mean. Finding out that a friend is pg brings out a whole load of emotions. It's really tough and not at all fair.

Does anybody remember when the best time to BD is pre- O ing? Last time, I looked it up (cant remember where though), and I think it was every other day from 4 days pre-O. Or something.

Well I'd better go and do something constructive. Take care all,
C
