Inglewood I've had problems all day as well getting on!
Wow tht certainly is different ends of the spectrum! I'm not sure I'd be able to do your job. We have such a shortage of midwives in the south-east, almost every student has gone straight into a job for the last 5+ years!
Where abouts in Scotland are you? My mum and her side of the family live just south of Edinburgh! I can honestly say I spend more time in Edinburgh than I do in London and I'm less than 30 mins away from it lol
All the girls I shared the nurses home with that did midwifery ended up down south and I'm too much of a home buddy! I am 40 miles south of Glasgow on the coast, but my Dh is from Fife and we spend alot of time there too. It's only 30mins from Edinburgh, u'll prob know it? I was to do my midders in Edinburgh, but ended up moving to Glasgow, closer to home and my BF of yrs at the time.
Sunset, thanks, am going to look it up a bit more tonight but that was the answer I was looking for :-) kelli, I have a saved doc. Origionally from ig that I may be able to forward u with the tier info, will look later when not on my phone. I've had a few probs. Getting on here and also tried getting on ig but had the monkeys straight away which doesn't usually happen, wonder if its perm. Down now, haven't been on it for weeks but do find it very useful for info.
Kell we have two kitten well there about 7 months old now so more like cats. Anywho ds2 who is two is so obsessed with them. He carry's them everywhere one under each arm! They are so good and have never scratched any of us! But I caught him the other day brushing his teeth with water from the cat bowl! UGGGGGH and i'm sure he's tried some of their kitten biscuits.

I feel rubbish so sorry for short post x
Evening ladies,
Charlie sorry you feel rubbish!
I haven't had a chance to read everyones posts today as i decided to take the opportunity on no GD or IG to actually play with my children and forget about swaying!
Pinga, glad all seems well with bubs.... will they monitor you a bit now or no need?
Seriously having to reconsider the o+12 and abstinence which is doing my head in as my ph is stonkingly high before and during ov and also dh cant cope with FR. Just wish i knew what to do! does anyone know if liquorice root can have a negative impact on dh's sperm? Was hoping that i could just cut out the post lime douche, cut out the liquorice root and add in progesterone and all would be fine but it sounds like its the o+12 and abstinence that could be the problems...ugh!
Hi Deaks,
Well even though I didn't sway hardcore I have started to type up my sway details so will try and post tomorrow :)
I know my chances of having another boy are high as I didn't do everything 100% but this is briefly what I did do!!
I did the diet 100% from Jan to end of May so 5 months, then in June July and Aug I cheated in the 2ww and stuck with the diet when AF arrived. Even though I cheated I still didn't eat anything really boy friendly like potatoes or bandannas etc so I still stayed away from all that was listed on the diet but I would have a pizza or takaway occasionally at the weekend and chocolate or biscuits as a treat in the week, so not great as I stopped losing weight by June but I did lose weight before then. I never ate before midday from Jan until BFP and I didn't eat cereal from Jan until BFP either (I ate a lot of cereal when I conceived he boys). So not sticking to the diet 100% doesn't go in my favour, although the fact that my body had had quite a long time to adjust to the diet when I was doing it 100% could have helped by the time we conceived??
I still drank peppermint tea, milk and cranberry all the time.
I still showered twice a day and used my ion bracelets and lavender, salt rock lamps etc etc.
FF says 2 day cut off I think we BD on ov and 12 hrs after so boy friendly but like you I wasn't getting pg and I was running out of time! some women do get pg with girls on ov as timing is only one of the factors but in my case I think it's boy territory. If we conceived on 2nd BD then more girl friendly.
I didn't use lime as we did that with DS3. DH abstained for 10 days. My PH was below 4 leading up to ov and in 4's during our attempt.
so I am praying with all my heart we made a pink bean but I'm also realistic and prepared to hear boy!
not sure if I've been of any help but I will write up my sway too :)
Deaks -whats the issue/problem? Probably cant help much but will be doing lots of research so may come accross something
Deaks, my dh took 2 liq root tabs a day for 2mths. Apparently, I read someplace (google it and I'll have a hunt) but 2 is recommend per day for dh (can't remember why). know it can make them moody and lower sex drive of take too many, but not sure about sperm impact.Quote:

When I had my booking app with my MW ( who I had never met) she asked me to list my live births and then m/c's, when she saw that I had had three m/c's and that I had three boys she said maybe I couldn't carry girls.....I said is there research to prove that theory and she said yes!! I always wondered if I couldn't carry girls especially as I know for defo one baby we lost was a girl......be interesting to find out more.
Charlie ~ Hope you feel better and some rest.
Ping ~ so pleased everything to ok x
Hi to everyone else.....off to watch The Jury :)
